Daniel 11:31

Verse 31 of 45. The 11th of 12 chapters in Daniel, in The Major Prophets.

27As for both these kings, their hearts will be to do evil, and they will speak lies at one table; but it won’t prosper, for the end will still be at the appointed time.

28Then he will return into his land with great wealth. His heart will be against the holy covenant. He will take action, and return to his own land.

29“He will return at the appointed time and come into the south; but it won’t be in the latter time as it was in the former.

30For ships of Kittim will come against him. Therefore he will be grieved, and will return, and have indignation against the holy covenant, and will take action. He will even return, and have regard to those who forsake the holy covenant.

31“Forces from him will profane the sanctuary, even the fortress, and will take away the continual burnt offering. Then they will set up the abomination that makes desolate.

32He will corrupt those who do wickedly against the covenant by flatteries; but the people who know their God will be strong and take action.

33“Those who are wise among the people will instruct many; yet they will fall by the sword and by flame, by captivity and by plunder, many days.

34Now when they fall, they will be helped with a little help; but many will join themselves to them with flatteries.

35Some of those who are wise will fall—to refine them, and to purify, and to make them white, even to the time of the end, because it is yet for the time appointed.
