3 And so a hero king, will arise,––and wield great authority, and do according to his own pleasure;
4 but, when he hath arisen, his kingdom, shall be broken in pieces, and be divided, toward the four winds of the heavens,––but not to his own posterity, nor according to his own authority which he wielded, for his kingdom, shall be uprooted, even for others besides these.
5 But a king of the south, will become strong, even from among his rulers,––and will prevail against him, and have authority, a great authority, shall his authority be. 6 And, at the end of years, they will league together, yea, the daughter of the king of the south, will go in unto the king of the north, to make peace, but she shall not retain strength of arm, neither shall he stand, nor his arm, but she shall be delivered up––she herself, and they who brought her in, and he who begat her, and he that strengthened her in the times. 7 But one will stand up from the sprout of her roots, [in] his stead,––and he will enter the army, and enter into a fortress of the king of the north, and deal with them and shew himself strong; 8 yea, even their gods, with their molten images, with their delightful vessels of silver and gold, with a host of captives, will he bring into Egypt,––and, he, will stand more, years, than the king of the north; 9 so will the king of the south, enter into the kingdom, and then return unto his own soil. 10 But, his sons, will rouse themselves to war, and gather together a multitude of large armies, but he will come on and on, and overflow and pass through,––and will return and wage war, up to his fortress. 11 Then will the king of the south, be enraged, and go forth and fight with him, with the king of the north,––and will raise a great multitude, but the multitude, will be delivered, into his hand. 12 And, when he hath taken away the multitude, his heart, will be uplifted,––and he will cause tens of thousands to fall, but will not conquer. 13 Then will the king of the north again raise a multitude, greater than the first,––and, at the end of the times––some years, he will come on and on with a great army, and with great substance. 14 And, in those times, many, will rise against the king of the south,––and, the sons of the oppressors of thy people, will exalt themselves to confirm the vision, but will be overthrown. 15 Then will come in the king of the north, and cast up a rampart, and capture a city of strongholds,––and, the arms of the south, will not rise, nor the people of his chosen ones, and there shall be no strength to rise. 16 So shall he that cometh against him do according to his own pleasure, and, none, shall stand before him,––therefore will he take his stand in the beautiful land, and it will languish and be exhausted in his hand. 17 Then will he set his face to enter, with the might of all his kingdom, and, equitable terms with him, will make,––and, a daughter of women, will he give him to corrupt her, but she will not remain, nor, his, shall she become. 18 Then will he turn his face to the Coastlands, and will capture many,––but a commander, will bring to an end, his reproach against himself, that, his reproach, return not unto him. 19 Therefore will he turn his face towards the fortresses of his land,––but he shall stagger and fall, and shall not be found. 20 Then will rise up in his stead, one causing an exactor to pass through the ornament of the kingdom,––but, in a few days, shall he be broken in pieces, not with anger, nor in battle.
5 But a king of the south, will become strong, even from among his rulers,––and will prevail against him, and have authority, a great authority, shall his authority be. 6 And, at the end of years, they will league together, yea, the daughter of the king of the south, will go in unto the king of the north, to make peace, but she shall not retain strength of arm, neither shall he stand, nor his arm, but she shall be delivered up––she herself, and they who brought her in, and he who begat her, and he that strengthened her in the times. 7 But one will stand up from the sprout of her roots, [in] his stead,––and he will enter the army, and enter into a fortress of the king of the north, and deal with them and shew himself strong; 8 yea, even their gods, with their molten images, with their delightful vessels of silver and gold, with a host of captives, will he bring into Egypt,––and, he, will stand more, years, than the king of the north; 9 so will the king of the south, enter into the kingdom, and then return unto his own soil. 10 But, his sons, will rouse themselves to war, and gather together a multitude of large armies, but he will come on and on, and overflow and pass through,––and will return and wage war, up to his fortress. 11 Then will the king of the south, be enraged, and go forth and fight with him, with the king of the north,––and will raise a great multitude, but the multitude, will be delivered, into his hand. 12 And, when he hath taken away the multitude, his heart, will be uplifted,––and he will cause tens of thousands to fall, but will not conquer. 13 Then will the king of the north again raise a multitude, greater than the first,––and, at the end of the times––some years, he will come on and on with a great army, and with great substance. 14 And, in those times, many, will rise against the king of the south,––and, the sons of the oppressors of thy people, will exalt themselves to confirm the vision, but will be overthrown. 15 Then will come in the king of the north, and cast up a rampart, and capture a city of strongholds,––and, the arms of the south, will not rise, nor the people of his chosen ones, and there shall be no strength to rise. 16 So shall he that cometh against him do according to his own pleasure, and, none, shall stand before him,––therefore will he take his stand in the beautiful land, and it will languish and be exhausted in his hand. 17 Then will he set his face to enter, with the might of all his kingdom, and, equitable terms with him, will make,––and, a daughter of women, will he give him to corrupt her, but she will not remain, nor, his, shall she become. 18 Then will he turn his face to the Coastlands, and will capture many,––but a commander, will bring to an end, his reproach against himself, that, his reproach, return not unto him. 19 Therefore will he turn his face towards the fortresses of his land,––but he shall stagger and fall, and shall not be found. 20 Then will rise up in his stead, one causing an exactor to pass through the ornament of the kingdom,––but, in a few days, shall he be broken in pieces, not with anger, nor in battle.
