Daniel 11:40-45
New English Translation

40 “At the time of the end the king of the south will attack[a] him. Then the king of the north will storm against him[b] with chariots, horsemen, and a large armada of ships.[c] He[d] will invade lands, passing through them like an overflowing river.[e] 41 Then he will enter the beautiful land.[f] Many[g] will fall, but these will escape:[h] Edom, Moab, and the Ammonite leadership. 42 He will extend his power[i] against other lands; the land of Egypt will not escape. 43 He will have control over the hidden stores of gold and silver, as well as all the treasures of Egypt. Libyans and Ethiopians[j] will submit to him.[k] 44 But reports will trouble him from the east and north, and he will set out in a tremendous rage to destroy and wipe out many. 45 He will pitch his royal tents between the seas[l] toward the beautiful holy mountain. But he will come to his end, with no one to help him.

Daniel 11:40-45
World English Bible

40 “At the time of the end the king of the south will contend with him; and the king of the north will come against him like a whirlwind, with chariots, with horsemen, and with many ships. He will enter into the countries, and will overflow and pass through. 41 He will enter also into the glorious land, and many countries will be overthrown; but these will be delivered out of his hand: Edom, Moab, and the chief of the children of Ammon. 42 He will also stretch out his hand on the countries. The land of Egypt won’t escape. 43 But he will have power over the treasures of gold and of silver, and over all the precious things of Egypt. The Libyans and the Ethiopians will be at his steps. 44 But news out of the east and out of the north will trouble him; and he will go out with great fury to destroy and utterly to sweep away many. 45 He will plant the tents of his palace between the sea and the glorious holy mountain; yet he will come to his end, and no one will help him.
