Das Reich des Nordens und das Reich des Südens
11 Auch ich stand ihm im ersten Jahre Darius' des Meders bei, um ihn zu stärken und ihm zu helfen. 2 Und nun will ich dir die Wahrheit verkündigen:
Siehe, es werden noch drei Könige in Persien aufstehen, und der vierte wird größern Reichtum erwerben als alle andern, und weil er sich in seinem Reichtum stark fühlt, wird er alles gegen das griechische Reich aufbieten. 3 Es wird aber ein tapferer König auftreten und eine große Herrschaft gründen und tun, was ihm gefällt. 4 Aber wie sein Reich aufgekommen ist, so wird es auch in Stücke gehen und nach den vier Himmelsgegenden zerteilt werden, aber nicht unter seine Nachkommen, und nicht mit gleicher Macht, wie er sie ausgeübt hat; denn sein Reich wird zersplittert und andern zuteil, als jenen.
5 Und der König des Südens wird erstarken; aber von seinen Fürsten wird einer noch stärker werden als er und eine Herrschaft begründen, ein großes Reich.
6 Und nach Jahren werden sie sich verbünden, und die Tochter des südlichen Königs wird zu dem nördlichen König kommen, um einen Ausgleich zustande zu bringen. Aber sie wird die Macht nicht behalten, und auch er wird nicht bestehen, noch seine Macht; sondern sie wird dahingegeben werden samt ihrem Gefolge und dem Kinde, das sie erzeugt, und dem, der sie eine Zeitlang erhalten hat.
7 Es wird aber ein Sprößling aus der gleichen Wurzel, der sie entstammte, an seine Stelle treten und wird gegen das Heer zu Felde ziehen, ja, er wird in die Festung des nördlichen Königs eindringen und wird darin gewalttätig schalten; 8 auch ihre Götter samt ihren gegossenen Bildern und köstlichen goldenen und silbernen Geräten wird er mit den Gefangenen nach Ägypten bringen; er wird auch jahrelang vor dem nördlichen Könige standhalten. 9 Dieser wird zwar in das Reich des südlichen Königs eindringen, aber wieder in sein Land zurückkehren. 10 Doch werden seine Söhne den Krieg wieder beginnen und eine gewaltige Menge von Streitkräften zusammenbringen. Diese wird kommen und alles überfluten und überschwemmen und ihn wieder bis zur Festung zurücktreiben.
11 Darob erbittert, wird der südliche König ausziehen und mit jenem, dem nördlichen Könige, streiten und wird ein großes Heer aufstellen, so daß jenes Heer ihm in die Hand gegeben wird. 12 Und er wird sich erheben, der große Haufe wird ihn übermütig machen, so daß er Zehntausende niederwerfen wird. Und doch wird er nicht mächtig bleiben; 13 sondern der nördliche König wird wiederum ein Heer aufstellen, größer als das frühere war, und wird nach etlichen Jahren an der Spitze einer großen und wohlgerüsteten Streitkraft wiederkommen.
14 Auch werden zu jener Zeit viele wider den südlichen König aufstehen, auch gewalttätige Leute aus deinem Volk werden sich erheben, um die Weissagung zu erfüllen; aber sie werden fallen. 15 Denn der nördliche König wird kommen und einen Wall aufwerfen und eine feste Stadt einnehmen. Und das südliche Heer wird nicht standhalten, auch nicht die beste Mannschaft seines Volkes; denn da wird keine Kraft zum Widerstande sein, 16 sondern der, welcher gegen ihn gekommen ist, wird tun, was ihm beliebt, und niemand kann vor ihm bestehen; und er wird Stellung nehmen im lieblichen Lande, das wird verheert durch seine Hand. 17 Er wird aber sein Augenmerk darauf richten, in den Besitz seines ganzen Königreiches zu kommen, und um sich den Anschein zu geben, als meinte er es aufrichtig mit ihm, wird er ihm eine Tochter geben, um es zu verderben; aber es wird nicht zustande kommen und ihm nicht gelingen. 18 Dann wird er sein Auge auf die Inseln richten und ihrer viele gewinnen; aber ein Feldherr wird seinem Hohnlachen ein Ende machen, er wird ihm genug geben, daß ihm das Höhnen vergeht. 19 Darauf wird er sich den Festungen seines Landes zuwenden, wird aber straucheln und fallen, daß man ihn nicht mehr finden wird.
20 Und an seiner Statt wird einer auftreten, der einen Erpresser durch die Zierde des Reiches ziehen läßt. Aber nach einigen Tagen wird er umgebracht werden, und zwar weder durch Zorn noch im Krieg.
Die Entweihung des Heiligtums
21 An seiner Statt wird ein Verachteter aufkommen, dem die königliche Würde nicht zugedacht war; aber er wird unversehens kommen und sich der Herrschaft durch Schmeicheleien bemächtigen. 22 Und die Streitkräfte, die wie eine Flut daherfahren, werden vor ihm weggeschwemmt und zerbrochen werden, dazu auch der Fürst des Bundes. 23 Denn trotzdem er sich mit ihm verbündet hat, wird er Betrug verüben und stark sein mit geringem Volk. 24 Mitten im Frieden wird er in die fruchtbarsten Gegenden eindringen und tun, was weder seine Väter noch seine Voreltern getan; Beute, Raub und Reichtum wird er unter sie verschleudern und gegen die Festungen wird er Pläne schmieden; und solches wird eine Zeitlang dauern.
25 Dann wird seine Kraft und sein Mut gegen den südlichen König entbrennen, mit großer Heeresmacht; der südliche König aber wird sich gleichfalls mit großer und sehr zahlreicher Heeresmacht zum Kriege rüsten, aber doch nicht standhalten, weil Anschläge gegen ihn gemacht werden; 26 die sein Brot essen, werden seinen Untergang herbeiführen; sein Heer wird sich zerstreuen, und viele Erschlagene werden fallen. 27 Die beiden Könige aber haben Böses im Sinn, sitzen am gleichen Tisch und reden Lügen; aber es wird nicht gelingen; denn das Ende kommt erst zur bestimmten Zeit.
28 Und er wird mit großem Reichtum in sein Land zurückkehren, um das, was er sich gegen den heiligen Bund vorgenommen hat, auszuführen, wenn er in sein Land zurückgekehrt ist.
29 Zur bestimmten Zeit wird er wieder gegen den Süden ziehen; aber es wird das zweite Mal nicht mehr gehen wie das erste Mal, 30 sondern es werden ihn Kittäerschiffe angreifen, so daß er entmutigt umkehrt, um seinen Zorn an dem heiligen Bund auszulassen. Das wird er auch tun und bei seiner Rückkehr sich diejenigen merken, welche den heiligen Bund verlassen.
31 Es werden auch von seinen Truppen zurückbleiben und das Heiligtum, die Festung, entweihen und das beständige [Opfer] abtun und den Greuel der Verwüstung aufstellen. 32 Und er wird die, welche gegen den Bund freveln, durch Schmeicheleien zum Abfall verleiten; die Leute aber, die ihren Gott kennen, bleiben fest.
33 Und die Verständigen im Volke werden viele unterweisen; sie werden aber dem Schwert, dem Feuer, der Gefangenschaft und der Plünderung unterliegen eine Zeitlang. 34 Und im Unterliegen werden sie ein wenig Hilfe erlangen; und es werden sich viele heuchlerisch an sie hängen. 35 Auch von den Verständigen werden etliche unterliegen, damit unter ihnen eine Läuterung geschehe, eine Sichtung und Reinigung, bis zur Zeit des Endes; denn es währt bis zur bestimmten Zeit.
Überheblichkeit des Königs
36 Und der König wird tun, was ihm beliebt, und wird sich erheben und großtun wider jeglichen Gott, und er wird gegen den Gott aller Götter unerhörte Worte ausstoßen, und es wird ihm gelingen, bis der Zorn vorüber[a] ist; denn was beschlossen ist, wird ausgeführt werden. 37 Er wird sich auch nicht um die Götter seiner Väter kümmern, noch um den Lieblingsgott[b] der Frauen, überhaupt um gar keinen Gott, sondern wider alle wird er großtun. 38 Statt dessen wird er den Gott der Festungen verehren; diesen Gott, den seine Väter nicht kannten, wird er verehren mit Gold, Silber, Edelsteinen und Kleinodien. 39 Er wird die starken Festungen behandeln wie den fremden Gott. Wer diesen anerkennt, dem wird er große Ehre erweisen, und er wird ihnen Gewalt geben über viele und zur Belohnung Ländereien unter sie verteilen.
40 Zur Endzeit aber wird der südliche König mit ihm zusammenstoßen. Da wird dann der nördliche König mit Wagen, Reitern und vielen Schiffen auf ihn losstürmen und in seine Länder eindringen und sie überschwemmen und überfluten. 41 Er wird auch in das liebliche Land kommen, und viele werden unterliegen. Diese aber werden seiner Hand entrinnen: Edom, Moab und die Erstlinge der Kinder Ammon. 42 Er wird auch seine Hand nach den Ländern ausstrecken, und Ägyptenland wird nicht entrinnen; 43 sondern er wird sich der Gold- und Silberschätze und aller Kleinodien Ägyptens bemächtigen; auch werden Lybier und Mohren zu seinem Gefolge gehören. 44 Aber Gerüchte aus Osten und Norden werden ihn erschrecken; daher wird er in großer Wut aufbrechen, um viele zu verderben und zu vertilgen. 45 Und er wird sein Palastgezelt zwischen dem Meer und dem lieblichen Berg des Heiligtums aufschlagen; da wird er sein Ende finden; aber niemand wird ihm helfen.

King James Version
11 Also I in the first year of Darius the Mede, even I, stood to confirm and to strengthen him.
2 And now will I shew thee the truth. Behold, there shall stand up yet three kings in Persia; and the fourth shall be far richer than they all: and by his strength through his riches he shall stir up all against the realm of Grecia.
3 And a mighty king shall stand up, that shall rule with great dominion, and do according to his will.
4 And when he shall stand up, his kingdom shall be broken, and shall be divided toward the four winds of heaven; and not to his posterity, nor according to his dominion which he ruled: for his kingdom shall be plucked up, even for others beside those.
5 And the king of the south shall be strong, and one of his princes; and he shall be strong above him, and have dominion; his dominion shall be a great dominion.
6 And in the end of years they shall join themselves together; for the king's daughter of the south shall come to the king of the north to make an agreement: but she shall not retain the power of the arm; neither shall he stand, nor his arm: but she shall be given up, and they that brought her, and he that begat her, and he that strengthened her in these times.
7 But out of a branch of her roots shall one stand up in his estate, which shall come with an army, and shall enter into the fortress of the king of the north, and shall deal against them, and shall prevail:
8 And shall also carry captives into Egypt their gods, with their princes, and with their precious vessels of silver and of gold; and he shall continue more years than the king of the north.
9 So the king of the south shall come into his kingdom, and shall return into his own land.
10 But his sons shall be stirred up, and shall assemble a multitude of great forces: and one shall certainly come, and overflow, and pass through: then shall he return, and be stirred up, even to his fortress.
11 And the king of the south shall be moved with choler, and shall come forth and fight with him, even with the king of the north: and he shall set forth a great multitude; but the multitude shall be given into his hand.
12 And when he hath taken away the multitude, his heart shall be lifted up; and he shall cast down many ten thousands: but he shall not be strengthened by it.
13 For the king of the north shall return, and shall set forth a multitude greater than the former, and shall certainly come after certain years with a great army and with much riches.
14 And in those times there shall many stand up against the king of the south: also the robbers of thy people shall exalt themselves to establish the vision; but they shall fall.
15 So the king of the north shall come, and cast up a mount, and take the most fenced cities: and the arms of the south shall not withstand, neither his chosen people, neither shall there be any strength to withstand.
16 But he that cometh against him shall do according to his own will, and none shall stand before him: and he shall stand in the glorious land, which by his hand shall be consumed.
17 He shall also set his face to enter with the strength of his whole kingdom, and upright ones with him; thus shall he do: and he shall give him the daughter of women, corrupting her: but she shall not stand on his side, neither be for him.
18 After this shall he turn his face unto the isles, and shall take many: but a prince for his own behalf shall cause the reproach offered by him to cease; without his own reproach he shall cause it to turn upon him.
19 Then he shall turn his face toward the fort of his own land: but he shall stumble and fall, and not be found.
20 Then shall stand up in his estate a raiser of taxes in the glory of the kingdom: but within few days he shall be destroyed, neither in anger, nor in battle.
21 And in his estate shall stand up a vile person, to whom they shall not give the honour of the kingdom: but he shall come in peaceably, and obtain the kingdom by flatteries.
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.
25 And he shall stir up his power and his courage against the king of the south with a great army; and the king of the south shall be stirred up to battle with a very great and mighty army; but he shall not stand: for they shall forecast devices against him.
26 Yea, they that feed of the portion of his meat shall destroy him, and his army shall overflow: and many shall fall down slain.
27 And both of these kings' hearts shall be to do mischief, and they shall speak lies at one table; but it shall not prosper: for yet the end shall be at the time appointed.
28 Then shall he return into his land with great riches; and his heart shall be against the holy covenant; and he shall do exploits, and return to his own land.
29 At the time appointed he shall return, and come toward the south; but it shall not be as the former, or as the latter.
30 For the ships of Chittim shall come against him: therefore he shall be grieved, and return, and have indignation against the holy covenant: so shall he do; he shall even return, and have intelligence with them that forsake the holy covenant.
31 And arms shall stand on his part, and they shall pollute the sanctuary of strength, and shall take away the daily sacrifice, and they shall place the abomination that maketh desolate.
32 And such as do wickedly against the covenant shall he corrupt by flatteries: but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits.
33 And they that understand among the people shall instruct many: yet they shall fall by the sword, and by flame, by captivity, and by spoil, many days.
34 Now when they shall fall, they shall be holpen with a little help: but many shall cleave to them with flatteries.
35 And some of them of understanding shall fall, to try them, and to purge, and to make them white, even to the time of the end: because it is yet for a time appointed.
36 And the king shall do according to his will; and he shall exalt himself, and magnify himself above every god, and shall speak marvellous things against the God of gods, and shall prosper till the indignation be accomplished: for that that is determined shall be done.
37 Neither shall he regard the God of his fathers, nor the desire of women, nor regard any god: for he shall magnify himself above all.
38 But in his estate shall he honour the God of forces: and a god whom his fathers knew not shall he honour with gold, and silver, and with precious stones, and pleasant things.
39 Thus shall he do in the most strong holds with a strange god, whom he shall acknowledge and increase with glory: and he shall cause them to rule over many, and shall divide the land for gain.
40 And at the time of the end shall the king of the south push at him: and the king of the north shall come against him like a whirlwind, with chariots, and with horsemen, and with many ships; and he shall enter into the countries, and shall overflow and pass over.
41 He shall enter also into the glorious land, and many countries shall be overthrown: but these shall escape out of his hand, even Edom, and Moab, and the chief of the children of Ammon.
42 He shall stretch forth his hand also upon the countries: and the land of Egypt shall not escape.
43 But he shall have power over the treasures of gold and of silver, and over all the precious things of Egypt: and the Libyans and the Ethiopians shall be at his steps.
44 But tidings out of the east and out of the north shall trouble him: therefore he shall go forth with great fury to destroy, and utterly to make away many.
45 And he shall plant the tabernacles of his palace between the seas in the glorious holy mountain; yet he shall come to his end, and none shall help him.

11 1 And in the first year of Darius(A) the Mede, I took my stand to support and protect him.)
The Kings of the South and the North
2 “Now then, I tell you the truth:(B) Three more kings will arise in Persia, and then a fourth, who will be far richer than all the others. When he has gained power by his wealth, he will stir up everyone against the kingdom of Greece.(C) 3 Then a mighty king will arise, who will rule with great power and do as he pleases.(D) 4 After he has arisen, his empire will be broken up and parceled out toward the four winds of heaven.(E) It will not go to his descendants, nor will it have the power he exercised, because his empire will be uprooted(F) and given to others.
5 “The king of the South will become strong, but one of his commanders will become even stronger than he and will rule his own kingdom with great power. 6 After some years, they will become allies. The daughter of the king of the South will go to the king of the North to make an alliance, but she will not retain her power, and he and his power[a] will not last. In those days she will be betrayed, together with her royal escort and her father[b] and the one who supported her.
7 “One from her family line will arise to take her place. He will attack the forces of the king of the North(G) and enter his fortress; he will fight against them and be victorious. 8 He will also seize their gods,(H) their metal images and their valuable articles of silver and gold and carry them off to Egypt.(I) For some years he will leave the king of the North alone. 9 Then the king of the North will invade the realm of the king of the South but will retreat to his own country. 10 His sons will prepare for war and assemble a great army, which will sweep on like an irresistible flood(J) and carry the battle as far as his fortress.
11 “Then the king of the South will march out in a rage and fight against the king of the North, who will raise a large army, but it will be defeated.(K) 12 When the army is carried off, the king of the South will be filled with pride and will slaughter many thousands, yet he will not remain triumphant. 13 For the king of the North will muster another army, larger than the first; and after several years, he will advance with a huge army fully equipped.
14 “In those times many will rise against the king of the South. Those who are violent among your own people will rebel in fulfillment of the vision, but without success. 15 Then the king of the North will come and build up siege ramps(L) and will capture a fortified city. The forces of the South will be powerless to resist; even their best troops will not have the strength to stand. 16 The invader will do as he pleases;(M) no one will be able to stand against him.(N) He will establish himself in the Beautiful Land and will have the power to destroy it.(O) 17 He will determine to come with the might of his entire kingdom and will make an alliance with the king of the South. And he will give him a daughter in marriage in order to overthrow the kingdom, but his plans[c] will not succeed(P) or help him. 18 Then he will turn his attention to the coastlands(Q) and will take many of them, but a commander will put an end to his insolence and will turn his insolence back on him.(R) 19 After this, he will turn back toward the fortresses of his own country but will stumble and fall,(S) to be seen no more.(T)
20 “His successor will send out a tax collector to maintain the royal splendor.(U) In a few years, however, he will be destroyed, yet not in anger or in battle.
21 “He will be succeeded by a contemptible(V) person who has not been given the honor of royalty.(W) He will invade the kingdom when its people feel secure, and he will seize it through intrigue. 22 Then an overwhelming army will be swept away(X) before him; both it and a prince of the covenant will be destroyed.(Y) 23 After coming to an agreement with him, he will act deceitfully,(Z) 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.(AA) He will plot the overthrow of fortresses—but only for a time.
25 “With a large army he will stir up his strength and courage against the king of the South. The king of the South will wage war with a large and very powerful army, but he will not be able to stand because of the plots devised against him. 26 Those who eat from the king’s provisions will try to destroy him; his army will be swept away, and many will fall in battle. 27 The two kings, with their hearts bent on evil,(AB) will sit at the same table and lie(AC) to each other, but to no avail, because an end will still come at the appointed time.(AD) 28 The king of the North will return to his own country with great wealth, but his heart will be set against the holy covenant. He will take action against it and then return to his own country.
29 “At the appointed time he will invade the South again, but this time the outcome will be different from what it was before. 30 Ships of the western coastlands(AE) will oppose him, and he will lose heart.(AF) Then he will turn back and vent his fury(AG) against the holy covenant. He will return and show favor to those who forsake the holy covenant.
31 “His armed forces will rise up to desecrate the temple fortress and will abolish the daily sacrifice.(AH) Then they will set up the abomination that causes desolation.(AI) 32 With flattery he will corrupt those who have violated the covenant, but the people who know their God will firmly resist(AJ) him.
33 “Those who are wise will instruct(AK) many, though for a time they will fall by the sword or be burned or captured or plundered.(AL) 34 When they fall, they will receive a little help, and many who are not sincere(AM) will join them. 35 Some of the wise will stumble, so that they may be refined,(AN) purified and made spotless until the time of the end, for it will still come at the appointed time.
The King Who Exalts Himself
36 “The king will do as he pleases. He will exalt and magnify himself(AO) above every god and will say unheard-of things(AP) against the God of gods.(AQ) He will be successful until the time of wrath(AR) is completed, for what has been determined must take place.(AS) 37 He will show no regard for the gods of his ancestors or for the one desired by women, nor will he regard any god, but will exalt himself above them all. 38 Instead of them, he will honor a god of fortresses; a god unknown to his ancestors he will honor with gold and silver, with precious stones and costly gifts. 39 He will attack the mightiest fortresses with the help of a foreign god and will greatly honor those who acknowledge him. He will make them rulers over many people and will distribute the land at a price.[d]
40 “At the time of the end the king of the South(AT) will engage him in battle, and the king of the North will storm(AU) out against him with chariots and cavalry and a great fleet of ships. He will invade many countries and sweep through them like a flood.(AV) 41 He will also invade the Beautiful Land.(AW) Many countries will fall, but Edom,(AX) Moab(AY) and the leaders of Ammon will be delivered from his hand. 42 He will extend his power over many countries; Egypt will not escape. 43 He will gain control of the treasures of gold and silver and all the riches of Egypt,(AZ) with the Libyans(BA) and Cushites[e] in submission. 44 But reports from the east and the north will alarm him, and he will set out in a great rage to destroy and annihilate many. 45 He will pitch his royal tents between the seas at[f] the beautiful holy mountain.(BB) Yet he will come to his end, and no one will help him.

Ang Biblia, 2001
Ang Kaharian ng Ehipto at Siria
11 Tungkol sa akin, nang unang taon ni Dario na taga-Media, ako'y tumayo upang patibayin at palakasin siya.
2 “At ngayo'y ipapaalam ko sa iyo ang katotohanan. Tatlo pang mga hari ang lilitaw sa Persia; at ang ikaapat ay magiging higit na mayaman kaysa kanilang lahat. Kapag siya'y lumakas sa pamamagitan ng kanyang mga kayamanan, kanyang kikilusin ang lahat laban sa kaharian ng Grecia.
3 At isang makapangyarihang hari ang lilitaw at mamumuno na may malaking kapangyarihan, at gagawa ng ayon sa kanyang nais.
4 Habang nagiging makapangyarihan, magigiba ang kanyang kaharian at mahahati sa apat na hangin ng langit, ngunit hindi sa kanyang mga anak, ni ayon man sa kanyang kapangyarihan na kanyang ipinamuno; sapagkat ang kanyang kaharian ay mabubunot at mapupunta sa iba bukod sa mga ito.
5 “Ang hari ng timog ay magiging malakas, ngunit ang isa sa kanyang mga pinuno ay magiging higit na malakas kaysa kanya, at siya ay maghahari sa isang kahariang higit na makapangyarihan kaysa kanyang sariling kaharian.
6 Pagkatapos ng ilang mga taon sila'y magsasanib, at ang anak na babae ng hari sa timog ay pupunta sa hari sa hilaga upang makipagkasundo. Ngunit hindi niya mapapanatili ang lakas ng kanyang bisig; o siya ma'y tatayo, o ang bisig man niya; kundi siya'y mabibigay, at yaong mga nagdala sa kanya, at ang nanganak sa kanya, at ang nagpalakas sa kanya sa mga panahong yaon.
7 “Ngunit may isang sanga mula sa kanyang mga ugat ang hahalili sa kanya. Siya'y darating laban sa hukbo, at papasok sa kuta ng hari ng hilaga, at kanyang haharapin sila at magtatagumpay.
8 Dadalhin din niya sa Ehipto bilang samsam ng digmaan ang kanilang mga diyos pati ang kanilang mga larawang hinulma at ang kanilang mahahalagang sisidlang pilak at ginto. Sa loob ng ilang taon ay iiwasan niyang salakayin ang hari ng hilaga.
9 At sasalakayin ng huli ang kaharian ng hari sa timog, ngunit siya'y babalik sa kanyang sariling lupain.
10 “Ang kanyang mga anak ay makikipagdigma at titipunin ang isang malaking hukbo, na sasalakay na gaya ng baha at makakaraan, at ipagpapatuloy ang pakikidigma hanggang sa kanyang kuta.
11 Dahil sa galit, ang hari sa timog ay lalabas at makikipaglaban sa hari ng hilaga at kanyang ihahanda ang napakaraming tao, gayunma'y magagapi ng kanyang kamay.
12 Kapag ang napakaraming tao ay natangay na, ang kanyang puso ay magpapalalo; at kanyang ibubuwal ang sampung libu-libo, ngunit hindi siya magtatagumpay.
13 Sapagkat ang hari sa hilaga ay muling maghahanda ng maraming tao na higit na malaki kaysa una. Pagkalipas ng ilang taon, siya'y darating na may malaking hukbo at maraming panustos.
14 “Sa mga panahong iyon ay maraming babangon laban sa hari ng timog. Ang mga taong mararahas sa iyong bayan ay maninindigan sa sarili upang ganapin ang pangitain; ngunit sila'y mabibigo.
15 Sa gayo'y darating ang hari sa hilaga, at sasalakay at masasakop ang isang bayan na nakukutaang mabuti. Ang hukbo ng timog ay hindi makakatagal ni ang kanyang piling pangkat, sapagkat walang lakas upang makatagal.
16 Ngunit siya na dumarating laban sa kanya ay gagawa ayon sa kanyang sariling kalooban, at walang makakahadlang sa kanya. Siya'y tatayo sa maluwalhating lupain, na nasa kanyang kamay ang pagwasak.
17 Kanyang itutuon ang kanyang isipan na mapalakas ang kanyang buong kaharian, at siya'y magdadala ng mga alok ng pakikipagkasundo at gagawin ang mga iyon. Ibibigay niya sa kanya ang anak na babae upang maging asawa, ngunit ito'y hindi tatayo para sa kanya o kakampi man sa kanya.
18 Pagkatapos nito'y haharapin niya ang[a] mga lupain sa baybay-dagat, at sasakupin ang marami sa kanila. Ngunit isang pinuno ang magpapatigil sa kanyang kalapastanganan; tunay na kanyang ibabalik ang kanyang kalapastanganan sa kanya.
19 Kung magkagayo'y haharapin niya ang mga kuta ng kanyang sariling lupain; ngunit siya'y matitisod at mabubuwal, at hindi na matatagpuan.
20 “Kung magkagayo'y lilitaw na kapalit niya ang isa na magsusugo ng maniningil para sa kaluwalhatian ng kaharian; ngunit sa loob ng ilang araw ay mawawasak siya, hindi sa galit ni sa pakikipaglaban man.
21 At kapalit niya ay lilitaw ang isang kasuklamsuklam na tao na hindi nabigyan ng karangalan ng kaharian. Ngunit siya'y darating na walang babala at kukunin ang kaharian sa pamamagitan ng pandaraya.
22 Ang mga hukbo ay ganap na matatangay at mawawasak sa harapan niya, pati ang pinuno ng tipan.
23 Pagkatapos na magawa ang pakikipagkasundo sa kanya, siya'y kikilos na may pandaraya, at siya'y magiging makapangyarihan kasama ng isang munting pangkat.
24 Walang babalang darating siya sa pinakamayamang bahagi ng lalawigan; at kanyang gagawin ang hindi ginawa ng kanyang mga magulang o ng magulang ng kanyang mga magulang. Ibabahagi niya sa kanila ang samsam at kayamanan. Siya'y gagawa ng mga panukala laban sa mga kuta, ngunit sa isang panahon lamang.
25 Kanyang kikilusin ang kanyang kapangyarihan at tapang laban sa hari ng timog na may malaking hukbo. At ang hari ng timog ay makikipagdigma sa isang napakalaki at makapangyarihang hukbo. Ngunit hindi siya magtatagumpay, sapagkat sila'y gagawa ng mga panukala laban sa kanya,
26 sa pamamagitan ng mga taong kumakain ng pagkaing mula sa hari. Kanilang wawasakin siya, ang kanyang hukbo ay matatalo at marami ang mabubuwal na patay.
27 Ang dalawang hari, na ang kanilang mga isipan ay nahumaling na sa kasamaan, ay uupo sa isang hapag at magpapalitan ng mga kasinungalingan. Ngunit hindi magtatagumpay, sapagkat ang wakas ay darating sa takdang panahon.
28 Siya'y babalik sa kanyang lupain na may malaking kayamanan, ngunit ang kanyang puso ay magiging laban sa banal na tipan. Gagawin niya ang kanyang maibigan, at babalik sa kanyang sariling lupain.
29 “Sa takdang panahon ay babalik siya at papasok sa timog, ngunit ito ay hindi magiging gaya ng una.
30 Sapagkat ang mga barko ng Kittim ay darating laban sa kanya at siya'y matatakot at babalik. Siya'y mapopoot at kikilos laban sa banal na tipan. Siya'y babalik at bibigyan ng pansin ang mga tumalikod sa banal na tipan.
31 Papasukin(A) at lalapastanganin ng mga tauhang sinugo niya ang templo at kuta. Kanilang aalisin ang patuloy na handog na sinusunog. At kanilang ilalagay ang kasuklamsuklam ng pagkawasak.
32 Kanyang aakitin na may labis na papuri ang mga sumuway sa tipan, ngunit ang bayan na nakakakilala ng kanilang Diyos ay magiging matibay at kikilos.
33 Ang marurunong sa mga mamamayan ay magtuturo sa marami, gayunman, sa loob ng ilang panahon, sila'y magagapi sa pamamagitan ng tabak at apoy, at daranas ng pagkabihag at sasamsaman.
34 Kapag sila'y nabuwal, sila'y tatanggap ng kaunting tulong, at marami ang sasama sa kanila na may pagkukunwari.
35 Ang ilan sa mga pantas ay magdurusa, upang dalisayin, linisin, at paputiin hanggang sa panahon ng wakas; sapagkat hindi pa dumarating ang takdang panahon.
36 “Ang hari(B) ay kikilos ayon sa kanyang nais. Siya'y magmamalaki, at magpapakataas nang higit kaysa alinmang diyos, at magsasalita ng mga kagila-gilalas na bagay laban sa Diyos ng mga diyos. Siya'y uunlad hanggang sa ang poot ay maganap; sapagkat ang ipinasiya ay matutupad.
37 Hindi niya igagalang ang mga diyos ng kanyang mga ninuno, o ang pagnanasa sa mga babae. Hindi niya igagalang ang sinumang diyos, sapagkat siya'y magmamalaki sa lahat.
38 Sa halip, kanyang pararangalan ang diyos ng mga muog. Isang diyos na hindi nakilala ng kanyang mga ninuno ang kanyang pararangalan ng ginto at pilak, ng mahahalagang bato at ng mamahaling kaloob.
39 Kanyang haharapin ang pinakamatibay na mga kuta sa tulong ng ibang diyos; sinumang kumilala sa kanya ay kanyang itataas na may karangalan. Kanyang gagawin silang mga puno ng marami at ipamamahagi ang lupa sa katumbas na halaga.
40 “Sa panahon ng wakas ay sasalakayin siya ng hari ng timog, ngunit ang hari ng hilaga ay pupunta laban sa kanya na gaya ng isang ipu-ipo, may mga karwahe, mga mangangabayo, at may maraming mga barko. At siya'y sasalakay laban sa mga bansa at lalampas na gaya ng baha.
41 Siya'y papasok sa maluwalhating lupain at marami ang mabubuwal ngunit maliligtas sa kanyang kapangyarihan ang Edom, Moab, at ang pangunahing bahagi ng mga anak ni Ammon.
42 At kanyang iuunat ang kanyang kamay laban sa mga bansa; at ang lupain ng Ehipto ay hindi makakatakas.
43 Siya'y magiging pinuno ng mga kayamanang ginto at pilak, at ng mahahalagang bagay ng Ehipto; at ang mga taga-Libya at ang mga taga-Etiopia ay susunod sa kanyang mga hakbang.
44 Ngunit ang mga balita mula sa silangan at sa hilaga ay babagabag sa kanya; at siya'y lalabas na may malaking galit upang pumuksa at lumipol ng marami.
45 Kanyang itatayo ang mga tolda ng kanyang palasyo sa pagitan ng dagat at ng maluwalhating banal na bundok. Gayunma'y darating siya sa kanyang wakas, at walang tutulong sa kanya.

New King James Version
Warring Kings of North and South
11 “Also (A)in the first year of (B)Darius the Mede, I, even I, stood up to confirm and strengthen him.) 2 And now I will tell you the truth: Behold, three more kings will arise in Persia, and the fourth shall be far richer than them all; by his strength, through his riches, he shall stir up all against the realm of Greece. 3 Then (C)a mighty king shall arise, who shall rule with great dominion, and (D)do according to his will. 4 And when he has arisen, (E)his kingdom shall be broken up and divided toward the four winds of heaven, but not among his posterity (F)nor according to his dominion with which he ruled; for his kingdom shall be uprooted, even for others besides these.
Warring Kings of North and South
5 “Also the king of the South shall become strong, as well as one of his princes; and he shall gain power over him and have dominion. His dominion shall be a great dominion. 6 And at the end of some years they shall join forces, for the daughter of the king of the South shall go to the king of the North to make an agreement; but she shall not retain the power of her [a]authority, and neither he nor his [b]authority shall stand; but she shall be given up, with those who brought her, and with him who begot her, and with him who strengthened her in those times. 7 But from a branch of her roots one shall arise in his place, who shall come with an army, enter the fortress of the king of the North, and deal with them and prevail. 8 And he shall also carry their gods captive to Egypt, with their [c]princes and their precious articles of silver and gold; and he shall continue more years than the king of the North.
9 “Also the king of the North shall come to the kingdom of the king of the South, but shall return to his own land. 10 However his sons shall stir up strife, and assemble a multitude of great forces; and one shall certainly come (G)and overwhelm and pass through; then he shall return (H)to his fortress and stir up strife.
11 “And the king of the South shall be (I)moved with rage, and go out and fight with him, with the king of the North, who shall muster a great multitude; but the (J)multitude shall be given into the hand of his enemy. 12 When he has taken away the multitude, his heart will be [d]lifted up; and he will cast down tens of thousands, but he will not prevail. 13 For the king of the North will return and muster a multitude greater than the former, and shall certainly come at the end of some years with a great army and much equipment.
14 “Now in those times many shall rise up against the king of the South. Also, [e]violent men of your people shall exalt themselves [f]in fulfillment of the vision, but they shall (K)fall. 15 So the king of the North shall come and (L)build a siege mound, and take a fortified city; and the [g]forces of the South shall not withstand him. Even his choice troops shall have no strength to resist. 16 But he who comes against him (M)shall do according to his own will, and (N)no one shall stand against him. He shall stand in the Glorious Land with destruction in his [h]power.
17 “He shall also (O)set his face to enter with the strength of his whole kingdom, and [i]upright ones with him; thus shall he do. And he shall give him the daughter of women to destroy it; but she shall not stand with him, (P)or be for him. 18 After this he shall turn his face to the coastlands, and shall take many. But a ruler shall bring the reproach against them to an end; and with the reproach removed, he shall turn back on him. 19 Then he shall turn his face toward the fortress of his own land; but he shall (Q)stumble and fall, (R)and not be found.
20 “There shall arise in his place one who imposes taxes on the glorious kingdom; but within a few days he shall be destroyed, but not in anger or in battle. 21 And in his place (S)shall arise a vile person, to whom they will not give the honor of royalty; but he shall come in peaceably, and seize the kingdom by intrigue. 22 With the [j]force of a (T)flood they shall be swept away from before him and be broken, (U)and also the prince of the covenant. 23 And after the league is made with him (V)he shall act deceitfully, for he shall come up and become strong with a small number of people. 24 He shall enter peaceably, even into the richest places of the province; and he shall do what his fathers have not done, nor his forefathers: he shall disperse among them the plunder, [k]spoil, and riches; and he shall devise his plans against the strongholds, but only for a time.
25 “He shall stir up his power and his courage against the king of the South with a great army. And the king of the South shall be stirred up to battle with a very great and mighty army; but he shall not stand, for they shall devise plans against him. 26 Yes, those who eat of the portion of his delicacies shall destroy him; his army shall [l]be swept away, and many shall fall down slain. 27 Both these kings’ hearts shall be bent on evil, and they shall speak lies at the same table; but it shall not prosper, for the end will still be at the (W)appointed time. 28 While returning to his land with great riches, his heart shall be moved against the holy covenant; so he shall do damage and return to his own land.
The Northern King’s Blasphemies
29 “At the appointed time he shall return and go toward the south; but it shall not be like the former or the latter. 30 (X)For ships from [m]Cyprus shall come against him; therefore he shall be grieved, and return in rage against the holy covenant, and do damage.
“So he shall return and show regard for those who forsake the holy covenant. 31 And [n]forces shall be mustered by him, (Y)and they shall defile the sanctuary fortress; then they shall take away the daily sacrifices, and place there the abomination of desolation. 32 Those who do wickedly against the covenant he shall [o]corrupt with flattery; but the people who know their God shall be strong, and carry out great exploits. 33 And those of the people who understand shall instruct many; yet for many days they shall fall by sword and flame, by captivity and plundering. 34 Now when they fall, they shall be aided with a little help; but many shall join with them by [p]intrigue. 35 And some of those of understanding shall fall, (Z)to refine them, purify them, and make them white, until the time of the end; because it is still for the appointed time.
36 “Then the king shall do according to his own will: he shall (AA)exalt and magnify himself above every god, shall speak blasphemies against the God of gods, and shall prosper till the wrath has been accomplished; for what has been determined shall be done. 37 He shall regard neither the [q]God of his fathers nor the desire of women, (AB)nor regard any god; for he shall exalt himself above them all. 38 But in their place he shall honor a god of fortresses; and a god which his fathers did not know he shall honor with gold and silver, with precious stones and pleasant things. 39 Thus he shall act against the strongest fortresses with a foreign god, which he shall acknowledge, and advance its glory; and he shall cause them to rule over many, and divide the land for [r]gain.
The Northern King’s Conquests
40 “At the (AC)time of the end the king of the South shall attack him; and the king of the North shall come against him (AD)like a whirlwind, with chariots, (AE)horsemen, and with many ships; and he shall enter the countries, overwhelm them, and pass through. 41 He shall also enter the Glorious Land, and many countries shall be overthrown; but these shall escape from his hand: (AF)Edom, Moab, and the [s]prominent people of Ammon. 42 He shall stretch out his hand against the countries, and the land of (AG)Egypt shall not escape. 43 He shall have power over the treasures of gold and silver, and over all the precious things of Egypt; also the Libyans and Ethiopians shall follow (AH)at his heels. 44 But news from the east and the north shall trouble him; therefore he shall go out with great fury to destroy and annihilate many. 45 And he shall plant the tents of his palace between the seas and (AI)the glorious holy mountain; (AJ)yet he shall come to his end, and no one will help him.
