Daniel 11:22-24
Living Bible
22 Then all opposition will be swept away before him, including a leader of the priests.[a] 23 His promises will be worthless. From the first his method will be deceit; with a mere handful of followers, he will become strong. 24 He will enter the richest areas of the land without warning and do something never done before: he will take the property and wealth of the rich and scatter it out among the people. With great success he will besiege and capture powerful strongholds throughout his dominions, but this will last for only a short while.

Daniel 11:22-24
New International Version
22 Then an overwhelming army will be swept away(A) before him; both it and a prince of the covenant will be destroyed.(B) 23 After coming to an agreement with him, he will act deceitfully,(C) and with only a few people he will rise to power. 24 When the richest provinces feel secure, he will invade them and will achieve what neither his fathers nor his forefathers did. He will distribute plunder, loot and wealth among his followers.(D) He will plot the overthrow of fortresses—but only for a time.
Daniel 11:22-24
King James Version
22 And with the arms of a flood shall they be overflown from before him, and shall be broken; yea, also the prince of the covenant.
23 And after the league made with him he shall work deceitfully: for he shall come up, and shall become strong with a small people.
24 He shall enter peaceably even upon the fattest places of the province; and he shall do that which his fathers have not done, nor his fathers' fathers; he shall scatter among them the prey, and spoil, and riches: yea, and he shall forecast his devices against the strong holds, even for a time.
