Also I in the firstH259 yearH8141 of DariusH1867 the MedeH4075, even I, stoodH5977 to confirmH2388 and to strengthenH4581 him.
And now will I shewH5046 thee the truthH571. Behold, there shall stand upH5975 yet threeH7969 kingsH4428 in PersiaH6539; and the fourthH7243 shall be farH6239 richerH6238 than they allH1419: and by his strengthH2393 through his richesH6239 he shall stir upH5782 all against the realmH4438 of GreciaH3120.
And a mightyH1368 kingH4428 shall stand upH5975, that shall ruleH4910 with greatH7227 dominionH4474, and doH6213 according to his willH7522.
And when he shall stand upH5975, his kingdomH4438 shall be brokenH7665, and shall be dividedH2673 toward the fourH702 windsH7307 of heavenH8064; and not to his posterityH319, nor according to his dominionH4915 which he ruledH4910: for his kingdomH4438 shall be plucked upH5428, even for othersH312 beside those.
And the kingH4428 of the southH5045 shall be strongH2388, and one of his princesH8269; and he shall be strongH2388 above him, and have dominionH4910; his dominionH4475 shall be a greatH7227 dominionH4474.
And in the endH7093 of yearsH8141 they shall join themselves togetherH2266; for the king'sH4428 daughterH1323 of the southH5045 shall comeH935 to the kingH4428 of the northH6828 to makeH6213 an agreementH4339: but she shall not retainH6113 the powerH3581 of the armH2220; neither shall he standH5975, nor his armH2220: but she shall be given upH5414, and they that broughtH935 her, and he that begatH3205 her, and he that strengthenedH2388 her in these timesH6256. {join…: Heb. associate themselves} {an…: Heb. rights} {he that begat…: or, whom she brought forth}
But out of a branchH5342 of her rootsH8328 shall one stand upH5975 in his estateH3653, which shall comeH935 with an armyH2428, and shall enterH935 into the fortressH4581 of the kingH4428 of the northH6828, and shall dealH6213 against them, and shall prevailH2388: {in…: or, in his place, or, office}
And shall also carryH935 captivesH7628 into EgyptH4714 their godsH430, with their princesH5257, and with their preciousH2532 vesselsH3627 of silverH3701 and of goldH2091; and he shall continueH5975 more yearsH8141 than the kingH4428 of the northH6828. {their precious…: Heb. vessels of their desire}
So the kingH4428 of the southH5045 shall comeH935 into his kingdomH4438, and shall returnH7725 into his own landH127.
But his sonsH1121 shall be stirred upH1624, and shall assembleH622 a multitudeH1995 of greatH7227 forcesH2428: and one shall certainlyH935 comeH935, and overflowH7857, and pass throughH5674: then shall he returnH7725, and be stirred upH1624, even to his fortressH4581. {shall be…: or, shall war} {return…: or, be stirred up again}
And the kingH4428 of the southH5045 shall be moved with cholerH4843, and shall come forthH3318 and fightH3898 with him, even with the kingH4428 of the northH6828: and he shall set forthH5975 a greatH7227 multitudeH1995; but the multitudeH1995 shall be givenH5414 into his handH3027.
And when he hath taken awayH5375 the multitudeH1995, his heartH3824 shall be lifted upH7311+H7311; and he shall cast downH5307 many ten thousandsH7239: but he shall not be strengthenedH5810 by it.
For the kingH4428 of the northH6828 shall returnH7725, and shall set forthH5975 a multitudeH1995 greaterH7227 than the formerH7223, and shall certainlyH935 comeH935 afterH7093 certainH6256 yearsH8141 with a greatH1419 armyH2428 and with muchH7227 richesH7399. {after…: Heb. at the end of times, even years}
And in those timesH6256 there shall manyH7227 stand upH5975 against the kingH4428 of the southH5045: also the robbersH1121+H6530 of thy peopleH5971 shall exaltH5375 themselves to establishH5975 the visionH2377; but they shall fallH3782. {the robbers: Heb. the children of robbers}
So the kingH4428 of the northH6828 shall comeH935, and cast upH8210 a mountH5550, and takeH3920 the most fencedH4013 citiesH5892: and the armsH2220 of the southH5045 shall not withstandH5975, neither his chosenH4005 peopleH5971, neither shall there be any strengthH3581 to withstandH5975. {the most…: Heb. the city of munitions} {his…: Heb. the people of his choices}
But he that comethH935 against him shall doH6213 according to his own willH7522, and none shall standH5975 beforeH6440 him: and he shall standH5975 in the gloriousH6643 landH776, which by his handH3027 shall be consumedH3617. {glorious…: or, goodly, etc.: Heb. land of ornament}
He shall also setH7760 his faceH6440 to enterH935 with the strengthH8633 of his whole kingdomH4438, and upright onesH3477 with him; thus shall he doH6213: and he shall giveH5414 him the daughterH1323 of womenH802, corruptingH7843 her: but she shall not standH5975 on his side, neither be for him. {upright…: or, much uprightness: or, equal conditions} {corrupting: Heb. to corrupt}
After this shall he turnH7760+H7725 his faceH6440 unto the islesH339, and shall takeH3920 manyH7227: but a princeH7101 for his own behalf shall cause the reproachH2781 offered by him to ceaseH7673; withoutH1115 his own reproachH2781 he shall cause it to turnH7725 upon him. {for…: Heb. for him} {the reproach…: Heb. his reproach}
Then he shall turnH7725 his faceH6440 toward the fortH4581 of his own landH776: but he shall stumbleH3782 and fallH5307, and not be foundH4672.
Then shall stand upH5975 in his estateH3653 a raiserH5674 of taxesH5065 in the gloryH1925 of the kingdomH4438: but within fewH259 daysH3117 he shall be destroyedH7665, neither in angerH639, nor in battleH4421. {estate: or, place} {a…: Heb. one that causeth an exacter to pass over} {anger: Heb. angers}
And in his estateH3653 shall stand upH5975 a vile personH959, to whom they shall not giveH5414 the honourH1935 of the kingdomH4438: but he shall comeH935 in peaceablyH7962, and obtainH2388 the kingdomH4438 by flatteriesH2519. {estate: or, place}
And with the armsH2220 of a floodH7858 shall they be overflownH7857 from beforeH6440 him, and shall be brokenH7665; yea, also the princeH5057 of the covenantH1285.
And after the leagueH2266 made with him he shall workH6213 deceitfullyH4820: for he shall come upH5927, and shall become strongH6105 with a smallH4592 peopleH1471.
He shall enterH935 peaceablyH7962 even upon the fattest placesH4924 of the provinceH4082; and he shall doH6213 that which his fathersH1 have not doneH6213, nor his fathers'H1 fathersH1; he shall scatterH967 among them the preyH961, and spoilH7998, and richesH7399: yea, and he shall forecastH2803 his devicesH4284 against the strong holdsH4013, even for a timeH6256. {peaceably…: or, into the peaceable and fat, etc} {forecast…: Heb. think his thoughts}
And he shall stir upH5782 his powerH3581 and his courageH3824 against the kingH4428 of the southH5045 with a greatH1419 armyH2428; and the kingH4428 of the southH5045 shall be stirred upH1624 to battleH4421 with a veryH3966 greatH1419 and mightyH6099 armyH2428; but he shall not standH5975: for they shall forecastH2803 devicesH4284 against him.
Yea, they that feedH398 of the portion of his meatH6598 shall destroyH7665 him, and his armyH2428 shall overflowH7857: and manyH7227 shall fallH5307 down slainH2491.
And bothH8147 these kings'H4428 heartsH3824 shall be to do mischiefH4827+H7451, and they shall speakH1696 liesH3577 at oneH259 tableH7979; but it shall not prosperH6743: for yet the endH7093 shall be at the time appointedH4150. {hearts: Heb. their hearts}
Then shall he returnH7725 into his landH776 with greatH1419 richesH7399; and his heartH3824 shall be against the holyH6944 covenantH1285; and he shall doH6213 exploits, and returnH7725 to his own landH776.
At the time appointedH4150 he shall returnH7725, and comeH935 toward the southH5045; but it shall not be as the formerH7223, or as the latterH314.
For the shipsH6716 of ChittimH3794 shall comeH935 against him: therefore he shall be grievedH3512, and returnH7725, and have indignationH2194 against the holyH6944 covenantH1285: so shall he doH6213; he shall even returnH7725, and have intelligenceH995 with them that forsakeH5800 the holyH6944 covenantH1285.
And armsH2220 shall standH5975 on his part, and they shall polluteH2490 the sanctuaryH4720 of strengthH4581, and shall take awayH5493 the dailyH8548 sacrifice, and they shall placeH5414 the abominationH8251 that maketh desolateH8074. {maketh…: or, astonisheth}
And such as do wickedlyH7561 against the covenantH1285 shall he corruptH2610 by flatteriesH2514: but the peopleH5971 that do knowH3045 their GodH430 shall be strongH2388, and doH6213 exploits. {corrupt: or, cause to dissemble}
And they that understandH7919 among the peopleH5971 shall instructH995 manyH7227: yet they shall fallH3782 by the swordH2719, and by flameH3852, by captivityH7628, and by spoilH961, many daysH3117.
Now when they shall fallH3782, they shall be holpenH5826 with a littleH4592 helpH5828: but manyH7227 shall cleaveH3867 to them with flatteriesH2519.
And some of them of understandingH7919 shall fallH3782, to tryH6884 them, and to purgeH1305, and to make them whiteH3835, even to the timeH6256 of the endH7093: because it is yet for a time appointedH4150. {try them: or, try by them}
And the kingH4428 shall doH6213 according to his willH7522; and he shall exaltH7311 himself, and magnifyH1431 himself above every godH410, and shall speakH1696 marvellous thingsH6381 against the GodH410 of godsH410, and shall prosperH6743 till the indignationH2195 be accomplishedH3615: for that that is determinedH2782 shall be doneH6213.
Neither shall he regardH995 the GodH430 of his fathersH1, nor the desireH2532 of womenH802, nor regardH995 any godH433: for he shall magnifyH1431 himself above all.
But in his estateH3653 shall he honourH3513 the GodH433 of forcesH4581: and a godH433 whom his fathersH1 knewH3045 not shall he honourH3513 with goldH2091, and silverH3701, and with preciousH3368 stonesH68, and pleasant thingsH2532. {forces: or, munitions: Heb. Mauzzim, or, as for the almighty God, in his seat he shall honour, yea he shall honour a god, etc} {pleasant: Heb. things desired}
Thus shall he doH6213 in the most strongH4581 holdsH4013 with a strangeH5236 godH433, whom he shall acknowledgeH5234+H5234 and increaseH7235 with gloryH3519: and he shall cause them to ruleH4910 over manyH7227, and shall divideH2505 the landH127 for gainH4242. {most…: Heb. fortresses of munitions} {gain: Heb. a price}
And at the timeH6256 of the endH7093 shall the kingH4428 of the southH5045 pushH5055 at him: and the kingH4428 of the northH6828 shall come against him like a whirlwindH8175, with chariotsH7393, and with horsemenH6571, and with manyH7227 shipsH591; and he shall enterH935 into the countriesH776, and shall overflowH7857 and pass overH5674.
He shall enterH935 also into the gloriousH6643 landH776, and manyH7227 countries shall be overthrownH3782: but these shall escapeH4422 out of his handH3027, even EdomH123, and MoabH4124, and the chiefH7225 of the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983. {glorious…: or, goodly, etc.: Heb. land of delight, or, ornament}
He shall stretch forthH7971 his handH3027 also upon the countriesH776: and the landH776 of EgyptH4714 shall not escapeH6413. {stretch…: Heb. send forth}
But he shall have powerH4910 over the treasuresH4362 of goldH2091 and of silverH3701, and over all the preciousH2532 things of EgyptH4714: and the LibyansH3864 and the EthiopiansH3569 shall be at his stepsH4703.
But tidingsH8052 out of the eastH4217 and out of the northH6828 shall troubleH926 him: therefore he shall go forthH3318 with greatH1419 furyH2534 to destroyH8045, and utterly to make awayH2763 manyH7227.
And he shall plantH5193 the tabernaclesH168 of his palaceH643 between the seasH3220 in the gloriousH6643 holyH6944 mountainH2022; yet he shall comeH935 to his endH7093, and none shall helpH5826 him. {glorious…: or, goodly, etc.: Heb. mountain of delight of holiness}

That the triumphingH7445 of the wickedH7563 is shortH7138, and the joyH8057 of the hypocriteH2611 but for a momentH7281? {short: Heb. from near}
Though his excellencyH7863 mount upH5927 to the heavensH8064, and his headH7218 reachH5060 unto the cloudsH5645; {clouds: Heb. cloud}
Yet he shall perishH6 for everH5331 like his own dungH1561: they which have seenH7200 him shall sayH559, WhereH335 is he?
AfterH870 thisH1836 I beheldH1934+H2370, and loH718 anotherH317, like a leopardH5245, which had uponH5922 the backH1355 of it fourH703 wingsH1611 of a fowlH5776; the beastH2423 had also fourH703 headsH7217; and dominionH7985 was givenH3052 to it.
I consideredH1934+H7920 the hornsH7162, and, beholdH431, there came upH5559 amongH997 them anotherH317 littleH2192 hornH7162, beforeH6925+H4481 whom there were threeH8532 ofH4481 the firstH6933 hornsH7162 plucked up by the rootsH6132: and, beholdH431, in thisH1668 hornH7162 were eyesH5870 like the eyesH5870 of manH606, and a mouthH6433 speakingH4449 great thingsH7260.
I have seenH7200 the wickedH7563 in great powerH6184, and spreadingH6168 himself like a greenH7488 bay treeH249. {a green…: or, a green tree that groweth in his own soil}
Therefore the heH6842 goatH5795 waxed veryH3966 greatH1431: and when he was strongH6105, the greatH1419 hornH7161 was brokenH7665; and for it came upH5927 fourH702 notable onesH2380 toward the fourH702 windsH7307 of heavenH8064.
And it shall come to pass, afterH310 that I have plucked them outH5428 I will returnH7725, and have compassionH7355 on them, and will bring them againH7725, every manH376 to his heritageH5159, and every manH376 to his landH776.
Yet he passed awayH5674, and, lo, he was not: yea, I soughtH1245 him, but he could not be foundH4672.
Now that being brokenH7665, whereas fourH702 stood upH5975 for it, fourH702 kingdomsH4438 shall stand upH5975 out of the nationH1471, but not in his powerH3581.
But if they will not obeyH8085, I will utterlyH5428 pluck upH5428 and destroyH6 that nationH1471, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
They that trustH982 in their wealthH2428, and boastH1984 themselves in the multitudeH7230 of their richesH6239;
None of them canH376 by any meansH6299 redeemH6299 his brotherH251, nor giveH5414 to GodH430 a ransomH3724 for him:
(For the redemptionH6306 of their soulH5315 is preciousH3365, and it ceasethH2308 for everH5769:)
That he should still liveH2421 for everH5331, and not seeH7200 corruptionH7845.
For he seethH7200 that wise menH2450 dieH4191, likewiseH3162 the foolH3684 and the brutish personH1198 perishH6, and leaveH5800 their wealthH2428 to othersH312.
Their inwardH7130 thought is, that their housesH1004 shall continue for everH5769, and their dwellingH4908 places to allH1755 generationsH1755; they callH7121 their landsH127 after their own namesH8034. {all…: Heb. generation and generation}
Nevertheless manH120 being in honourH3366 abidethH3885 not: he is likeH4911 the beastsH929 that perishH1820.
Surely every manH376 walkethH1980 in a vain shewH6754: surely they are disquietedH1993 in vainH1892: he heapeth upH6651 riches, and knowethH3045 not who shall gatherH622 them. {a vain…: Heb. an image}
At what instantH7281 I shall speakH1696 concerning a nationH1471, and concerning a kingdomH4467, to pluck upH5428, and to pull downH5422, and to destroyH6 it;
Until I wentH935 into the sanctuaryH4720 of GodH410; then understoodH995 I their endH319.
Surely thou didst setH7896 them in slippery placesH2513: thou castedst them downH5307 into destructionH4876.
How are they brought into desolationH8047, as in a momentH7281! they are utterlyH5486 consumedH8552 with terrorsH1091.
As a dreamH2472 when one awakethH6974; so, O LordH136, when thou awakestH5782, thou shalt despiseH959 their imageH6754.
Yea, I hatedH8130 all my labourH5999 which I had takenH6001 under the sunH8121: because I should leaveH3240 it unto the manH120 that shall be afterH310 me. {taken: Heb. laboured}
And the whole valleyH6010 of the dead bodiesH6297, and of the ashesH1880, and all the fieldsH7709+H8309 unto the brookH5158 of KidronH6939, unto the cornerH6438 of the horseH5483 gateH8179 toward the eastH4217, shall be holyH6944 unto the LORDH3068; it shall not be plucked upH5428, nor thrown downH2040 any more for everH5769.
ButG1161 GodG2316 saidG2036 unto himG846, Thou foolG878, thisG5026 nightG3571 thyG4675 soulG5590 shall be requiredG523 ofG575 theeG4675: thenG1161 whoseG5101 shall those things beG2071, whichG3739 thou hast providedG2090? {thy…: Gr. do they require thy soul}
And who knowethH3045 whether he shall be a wiseH2450 man or a foolH5530? yet shall he have ruleH7980 over all my labourH5999 wherein I have labouredH5998, and wherein I have shewed myself wiseH2449 under the sunH8121. This is also vanityH1892.
Thus shalt thou sayH559 unto him, The LORDH3068 saithH559 thus; Behold, that which I have builtH1129 will I break downH2040, and that which I have plantedH5193 I will pluck upH5428, even this whole landH776.
There isH3426 oneH259 alone, and there is not a secondH8145; yea, he hath neither childH1121 nor brotherH251: yet is there no endH7093 of all his labourH5999; neither is his eyeH5869 satisfiedH7646 with richesH6239; neither saith he, For whom do I labourH6001, and bereaveH2637 my soulH5315 of goodH2896? This is also vanityH1892, yea, it is a soreH7451 travailH6045.
