³² The king will deceive the people who are no longer faithful to God. He will make them help him. But the people who are still faithful to God will work hard to stop him.

³³ Wise Israelite leaders will teach many other people. But these teachers will suffer for some time. People will kill them in battle, or with fire. People will rob them. People will put some of them in prison. ³⁴ When God's people are in a time of trouble, they will receive a little help. Many people will join them who are not their true friends.
