ASV_Strong : Daniel 11
1. And as for me[H259], in the first year[H8141] of Darius[H1867] the Mede[H4075], I stood[H5977] up to confirm[H2388] and strengthen him[H4581].
2. And now will I show[H5046] thee the truth[H571]. Behold[H5975], there shall stand up yet three[H7969] kings[H4428] in Persia[H6539]; and the fourth[H7243] shall be far[H6239] richer[H6238] than they all[H1419]: and when he is waxed strong[H2393] through his riches[H6239], he shall stir up[H5782] all against the realm[H4438] of Greece[H3120].
3. And a mighty[H1368] king[H4428] shall stand up[H5975], that shall rule[H4910] with great[H7227] dominion[H4474], and do[H6213] according to his will[H7522].
4. And when he shall stand up[H5975], his kingdom[H4438] shall be broken[H7665], and shall be divided[H2673] toward the four[H702] winds[H7307] of heaven[H8064], but not to his posterity[H319], nor according to his dominion[H4915] wherewith he ruled[H4910]; for his kingdom[H4438] shall be plucked up[H5428], even for others besides these[H312].
5. And the king[H4428] of the south[H5045] shall be strong[H2388], and one of his princes[H8269]; and he shall be strong[H2388] above him[H4910], and have dominion; his dominion[H4475] shall be a great[H7227] dominion[H4474].
6. And at the end[H7093] of years[H8141] they shall join themselves together[H2266]; and the daughter[H1323] of the king[H4428] of the south[H5045] shall come[H935] to the king[H4428] of the north[H6828] to make[H6213] an agreement[H4339]: but she shall not retain[H6113] the strength[H3581] of her arm[H2220]; neither shall he stand[H5975], nor his arm[H2220]; but she shall be given up[H5414], and they that brought[H935] her[H3205], and he that begat her[H2388], and he that strengthened her in those times[H6256].
7. But out of a shoot[H5342] from her roots[H8328] shall one stand up[H5975] in his place[H3653], who shall come[H935] unto the army[H2428], and shall enter[H935] into the fortress[H4581] of the king[H4428] of the north[H6828], and shall deal[H6213] against them[H2388], and shall prevail.
8. And also their gods[H430], with their molten images[H5257], and with their goodly[H2532] vessels[H3627] of silver[H3701] and of gold[H2091], shall he carry[H935] captive[H7628] into Egypt[H4714]; and he shall refrain[H5975] some years[H8141] from the king[H4428] of the north[H6828].
9. And he shall come[H935] into the realm[H4438] of the king[H4428] of the south[H5045], but he shall return[H7725] into his own land[H127].
10. And his sons[H1121] shall war[H1624], and shall assemble[H622] a multitude[H1995] of great[H7227] forces[H2428], which shall[H935] come[H935] on[H7857], and overflow, and pass through[H5674]; and they shall return[H7725] and war[H1624], even to his fortress[H4581].
11. And the king[H4428] of the south[H5045] shall be moved with anger[H4843], and shall come forth[H3318] and fight[H3898] with him[H4428], even with the king of the north[H6828]; and he shall set forth[H5975] a great[H7227] multitude[H1995], and the multitude[H1995] shall be given[H5414] into his hand[H3027].
12. And the multitude[H1995] shall be lifted up[H7311], and his heart[H3824] shall be exalted[H7311]; and he shall cast down[H5307] tens of thousands[H7239], but he shall not prevail[H5810].
13. And the king[H4428] of the north[H6828] shall return[H7725], and shall set forth[H5975] a multitude[H1995] greater[H7227] than the former[H7223]; and he shall[H935] come[H935] on at the end[H7093] of the times[H6256], even of years[H8141], with a great[H7227] army[H2428] and with much[H7227] substance[H7399].
14. And in those times[H6256] there shall many[H7227] stand up[H5975] against the king[H4428] of the south[H5045]: also the children of the violent[H1121] among thy people[H5971] shall lift[H5375] themselves up to establish[H5975] the vision[H2377]; but they shall fall[H3782].
15. So the king[H4428] of the north[H6828] shall come[H935], and cast up[H8210] a mound[H5550], and take[H3920] a well-fortified[H4013] city[H5892]: and the forces[H2220] of the south[H5045] shall not stand[H5975], neither his chosen[H4005] people[H5971], neither shall there be any strength[H3581] to stand[H5975].
16. But he that cometh[H935] against him shall do[H6213] according to his own will[H7522], and none shall stand[H5975] before[H6440] him[H5975]; and he shall stand in the glorious[H6643] land[H776], and in his hand[H3027] shall be destruction[H3617].
17. And he shall set[H7760] his face[H6440] to come[H935] with the strength[H8633] of his whole kingdom[H4438], and with him equitable[H3477] conditions[H6213]; and he shall perform them[H5414]: and he shall give him the daughter[H1323] of women[H802], to corrupt[H7843] her[H5975]; but she shall not stand, neither be for him.
18. After this shall he turn[H7760] his face[H6440] unto the isles[H339], and shall take[H3920] many[H7227]: but a prince[H7101] shall cause the reproach[H2781] offered by him to cease[H7673]; yea[H1115], moreover, he shall cause his reproach[H2781] to turn upon him[H7725].
19. Then he shall turn[H7725] his face[H6440] toward the fortresses[H4581] of his own land[H776]; but he shall stumble[H3782] and fall[H5307], and shall not be found[H4672].
20. Then shall stand up[H5975] in his place[H3653] one[H5674] that shall cause an exactor[H5065] to pass through the glory[H1925] of the kingdom[H4438]; but within few[H259] days[H3117] he shall be destroyed[H7665], neither in anger[H639], nor in battle[H4421].
21. And in his place[H3653] shall stand up[H5975] a contemptible person[H959], to whom they had not given[H5414] the honor[H1935] of the kingdom[H4438]: but he shall come[H935] in time of security[H7962], and shall obtain[H2388] the kingdom[H4438] by flatteries[H2519].
22. And the overwhelming[H7858] forces[H2220] shall be overwhelmed[H7857] from before[H6440] him[H7665], and shall be broken; yea[H5057], also the prince of the covenant[H1285].
23. And after the league[H2266] made with him he shall work[H6213] deceitfully[H4820]; for he shall come up[H5927], and shall become strong[H6105], with a small[H4592] people[H1471].
24. In time of security[H7962] shall he come[H935] even upon the fattest places[H4924] of the province[H4082]; and he shall do[H6213] that which his fathers[H1] have not done[H6213], nor his fathers[H1]' fathers[H1]; he shall scatter[H967] among them prey[H961], and spoil[H7998], and substance[H7399]: yea[H2803], he shall devise his devices[H4284] against the strongholds[H4013], even for a time[H6256].
25. And he shall stir up[H5782] his power[H3581] and his courage[H3824] against the king[H4428] of the south[H5045] with a great[H1419] army[H2428]; and the king[H4428] of the south[H5045] shall war[H1624] in battle[H4421] with an exceeding[H3966] great[H1419] and mighty[H6099] army[H2428]; but he shall not stand[H5975]; for they shall devise[H2803] devices against him[H4284].
26. Yea[H398], they that eat of his dainties[H6598] shall destroy[H7665] him[H2428], and his army shall overflow[H7857]; and many[H7227] shall fall[H5307] down slain[H2491].
27. And as for both[H8147] these kings[H4428], their hearts[H3824] shall be to do mischief[H4827], and they shall speak[H1696] lies[H3577] at one[H259] table[H7979]: but it shall not prosper[H6743]; for yet the end[H7093] shall be at the time appointed[H4150].
28. Then shall he return[H7725] into his land[H776] with great[H1419] substance[H7399]; and his heart[H3824] shall be against the holy[H6944] covenant[H1285]; and he shall do[H6213] his pleasure[H7725], and return to his own land[H776].
29. At the time appointed[H4150] he shall return[H7725], and come[H935] into the south[H5045]; but it shall not be in the latter[H314] time as it was in the former[H7223].
30. For ships[H6716] of Kittim[H3794] shall come[H935] against him[H3512]; therefore he shall be grieved, and shall return[H7725], and have indignation[H2194] against the holy[H6944] covenant[H1285], and shall do[H6213] his pleasure[H7725]: he shall even return, and have regard[H995] unto them that forsake[H5800] the holy[H6944] covenant[H1285].
31. And forces[H2220] shall stand[H5975] on his part[H2490], and they shall profane the sanctuary[H4720], even the fortress[H4581], and shall take away[H5493] the continual[H8548] burnt-offering[H5414], and they shall set up the abomination[H8251] that maketh desolate[H8074].
32. And such as do wickedly[H7561] against the covenant[H1285] shall he pervert[H2610] by flatteries[H2514]; but the people[H5971] that know[H3045] their God[H430] shall be strong[H2388], and do exploits[H6213].
33. And they that are wise[H7919] among the people[H5971] shall instruct[H995] many[H7227]; yet they shall fall[H3782] by the sword[H2719] and by flame[H3852], by captivity[H7628] and by spoil[H961], many days[H3117].
34. Now when they shall fall[H3782], they shall be helped[H5826] with a little[H4592] help[H5828]; but many[H7227] shall join[H3867] themselves unto them with flatteries[H2519].
35. And some of them that are wise[H7919] shall fall[H3782], to refine[H6884] them[H1305], and to purify, and to make them white[H3835], even to the time[H6256] of the end[H7093]; because it is yet for the time appointed[H4150].
36. And the king[H4428] shall do[H6213] according to his will[H7522]; and he shall exalt[H7311] himself[H1431], and magnify himself above every god[H410], and shall speak[H1696] marvellous things[H6381] against the God[H410] of gods[H410]; and he shall prosper[H6743] till the indignation[H2195] be accomplished[H3615]; for that which is determined[H2782] shall be done[H6213].
37. Neither shall he regard[H995] the gods[H430] of his fathers[H1], nor the desire[H2532] of women[H802], nor regard[H995] any god[H433]; for he shall magnify himself above all[H1431].
38. But in his place[H3653] shall he honor[H3513] the god[H433] of fortresses[H4581]; and a god[H433] whom his fathers[H1] knew[H3045] not shall he honor[H3513] with gold[H2091], and silver[H3701], and with precious[H3368] stones[H68], and pleasant things[H2532].
39. And he shall deal[H6213] with the strongest[H4581] fortresses[H4013] by the help of a foreign[H5236] god[H433]: whosoever acknowledgeth[H5234] him he will increase[H7235] with glory[H3519]; and he shall cause them to rule[H4910] over many[H7227], and shall divide[H2505] the land[H127] for a price[H4242].
40. And at the time[H6256] of the end[H7093] shall the king[H4428] of the south[H5045] contend[H5055] with him[H4428]; and the king of the north[H6828] shall come against him like a whirlwind[H8175], with chariots[H7393], and with horsemen[H6571], and with many[H7227] ships[H591]; and he shall enter[H935] into the countries[H776], and shall overflow[H7857] and pass through[H5674].
41. He shall enter[H935] also into the glorious[H6643] land[H776], and many[H7227] countries shall be overthrown[H3782]; but these shall be delivered[H4422] out of his hand[H3027]: Edom[H123], and Moab[H4124], and the chief[H7225] of the children[H1121] of Ammon[H5983].
42. He shall stretch forth[H7971] his hand[H3027] also upon the countries[H776]; and the land[H776] of Egypt[H4714] shall not escape[H6413].
43. But he shall have power[H4910] over the treasures[H4362] of gold[H2091] and of silver[H3701], and over all the precious[H2532] things of Egypt[H4714]; and the Libyans[H3864] and the Ethiopians[H3569] shall be at his steps[H4703].
44. But tidings[H8052] out of the east[H4217] and out of the north[H6828] shall trouble[H926] him[H3318]; and he shall go forth with great[H1419] fury[H2534] to destroy[H8045] and utterly to sweep away[H2763] many[H7227].
45. And he shall plant[H5193] the tents[H168] of his palace[H643] between the sea[H3220] and the glorious[H6643] holy[H6944] mountain[H2022]; yet he shall come[H935] to his end[H7093], and none shall help him[H5826].
