Daniel 11:20-22
New American Standard Bible
20 “Then in his place one will arise who will (A)allow an [a]oppressor to pass through the [b]Jewel of his kingdom; yet within a few days he will be broken, though not in anger nor in battle. 21 And in his place a despicable person will arise, on whom the majesty of kingship has not been conferred; but he will come in a time of tranquility and (B)seize the kingdom by intrigue. 22 And the overflowing (C)forces will be flooded away from him and smashed, and also the prince of the covenant.

But within a few days he shall be broken, neither in anger nor in battle. 21 In his place shall arise a contemptible person to whom royal majesty has not been given. (B)He shall come in without warning and obtain the kingdom (C)by flatteries. 22 Armies shall be (D)utterly swept away before him and broken, even the prince of the covenant.
