Daniel 11:36
Verse 36 of 45. The 11th of 12 chapters in Daniel, in The Major Prophets.
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.
36“The king will do according to his will. He will exalt himself and magnify himself above every god, and will speak marvelous things against the God of gods. He will prosper until the indignation is accomplished, for that which is determined will be done.
37He won’t regard the gods of his fathers, or the desire of women, or regard any god; for he will magnify himself above all.
38But in their place, he will honor the god of fortresses. He will honor a god whom his fathers didn’t know with gold, silver, and with precious stones and pleasant things.
39He will deal with the strongest fortresses by the help of a foreign god. He will increase with glory whoever acknowledges him. He will cause them to rule over many, and will divide the land for a price.
40“At the time of the end the king of the south will contend with him; and the king of the north will come against him like a whirlwind, with chariots, with horsemen, and with many ships. He will enter into the countries, and will overflow and pass through.
