31 Forces from him will arise, (A)desecrate the sanctuary fortress, and do away with the regular sacrifice. And they will set up the (B)abomination [a]of desolation. 32 And by (C)smooth words he will [b]turn to godlessness those who act wickedly toward the covenant, but the people who know their God will be (D)strong and take action. 33 And [c](E)those who have insight among the people will give understanding to the many; yet they will (F)fall by sword and by flame, by captivity and by plunder for many days. 34 Now when they fall they will be granted a little help, and many will (G)join with them in (H)hypocrisy. 35 And some of [d]those who have insight will fall, to (I)refine, (J)purge, and [e](K)cleanse them until the (L)end time; because it is still to come at the appointed time.
