36 “And the king shall (A)do as he wills. (B)He shall exalt himself and magnify himself above every god, (C)and shall speak astonishing things against (D)the God of gods. (E)He shall prosper (F)till the indignation is accomplished; for what is decreed shall be done. 37 He shall pay no attention to the gods of his fathers, or to the one beloved by women. He shall not pay attention to any other god, for (G)he shall magnify himself above all. 38 He shall honor the god of fortresses instead of these. A god whom his fathers did not know he shall honor (H)with gold and silver, with precious stones and costly gifts. 39 He shall deal with the strongest fortresses with the help of a foreign god. Those who acknowledge him he shall load with honor. He shall make them rulers over many and (I)shall divide the land for a price.[a]
