40 “Then at the time of the end, the king of the south will attack the king of the north. The king of the north will storm out with chariots, charioteers, and a vast navy. He will invade various lands and sweep through them like a flood. 41 He will enter the glorious land of Israel,[a] and many nations will fall, but Moab, Edom, and the best part of Ammon will escape. 42 He will conquer many countries, and even Egypt will not escape. 43 He will gain control over the gold, silver, and treasures of Egypt, and the Libyans and Ethiopians[b] will be his servants.

44 “But then news from the east and the north will alarm him, and he will set out in great anger to destroy and obliterate many. 45 He will stop between the glorious holy mountain and the sea and will pitch his royal tents. But while he is there, his time will suddenly run out, and no one will help him.

40 “And at the (A)end time the (B)king of the South will wage war with him, and the (C)king of the North will (D)storm against him with chariots, horsemen, and with many ships; and he will enter countries, (E)overflow them, and pass through. 41 He will also enter the [a](F)Beautiful Land, and many countries will fall; but these will be rescued out of his hand: Edom, (G)Moab, and the foremost of the sons of (H)Ammon. 42 Then he will reach out with his hand against other countries, and the land of Egypt will not escape. 43 But he will [b]gain control over the hidden treasures of gold and silver, and over all the precious things of Egypt; and (I)Libyans and (J)Ethiopians will follow at his [c]heels. 44 But rumors from the East and from the North will terrify him, and he will go out with great wrath to eliminate and [d]annihilate many. 45 And he will pitch the tents of his royal pavilion between the seas and the beautiful (K)Holy Mountain; yet he will come to his end, and no one will help him.
