Daniel 11




 1. Also I in the first <0259 >echad > year <8141 shaneh > of

Darius <1867


Dar<yavesh > the Mede <4075 Maday >, [even] I, stood <5975 <amad

> to confirm


<2388 chazaq > and to strengthen <4581 ma<owz > him.




 2 And now <6258 <attah > will I shew <5046 nagad > thee the

truth <0571


>emeth >. Behold <2009 hinneh >, there shall stand <5975 <amad >

up yet <5750


<owd > three <7969 shalowsh > kings <4428 melek > in Persia

<6539 Parac >;


and the fourth <7243 r@biy<iy > shall be far <1419 gadowl >

richer <6238


<ashar > than [they] all <3605 kol >: and by his strength <2394

chozqah >


through his riches <6239 <osher > he shall stir <5782 <uwr > up

all <3605 kol


> against the realm <4438 malkuwth > of Grecia <3120 Yavan >.




 3 And a mighty <1368 gibbowr > king <4428 melek > shall stand

<5975 <amad >


up, that shall rule <4910 mashal > with great <7227 rab >

dominion <4474


mimshal >, and do <6213 <asah > according to his will <7522

ratsown >.




 4 And when he shall stand <5975 <amad > up, his kingdom <4438

malkuwth >


shall be broken <7665 shabar >, and shall be divided <2673

chatsah > toward


the four <0702 >arba< > winds <7307 ruwach > of heaven <8064

shamayim >; and


not to his posterity <0319 >achariyth >, nor <3808 lo> >

according to his


dominion <4915 moshel > which <0834 >aher > he ruled <4910

mashal >: for his


kingdom <4438 malkuwth > shall be plucked <5428 nathash > up,

even for others


<0312 >acher > beside <0905 bad > those <0428 >el-leh >.




 5. And the king <4428 melek > of the south <5045 negeb > shall

be strong


<2388 chazaq >, and [one] of his princes <8269 sar >; and he

shall be strong


<2388 chazaq > above <5921 <al > him, and have dominion <4910

mashal >; his


dominion <4474 mimshal > [shall be] a great <7227 rab > dominion

<4474


mimshal >.




 6 And in the end <7093 qets > of years <8141 shaneh > they

shall join <2266


chabar > themselves together; for the king's <4428 melek >

daughter <1323


bath > of the south <5045 negeb > shall come <0935 bow> > to the

king <4428


melek > of the north <6828 tsaphown > to make <6213 <asah > an

agreement


<4339 meyshar >: but she shall not retain <6113 <atsar > the

power <3581


koach > of the arm <2220 z@rowa< >; neither <3808 lo> > shall he

stand <5975


<amad >, nor his arm <2220 z@rowa< >: but she shall be given

<5414 nathan >


up, and they that brought <0935 bow> > her, and he that begat

<3205 yalad >


her, and he that strengthened <2388 chazaq > her in [these]

times <6256 <eth


>.




 7 But out of a branch <5342 netser > of her roots <8328 sheresh

> shall


[one] stand <5975 <amad > up in his estate <3653 ken >, which

shall come


<0935 bow> > with an army <2428 chayil >, and shall enter <0935

bow> > into


the fortress <4581 ma<owz > of the king <4428 melek > of the

north <6828


tsaphown >, and shall deal <6213 <asah > against them, and shall

prevail


<2388 chazaq >:




 8 And shall also <1571 gam > carry <0935 bow> > captives <7628

sh@biy > into


Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > their gods <0430 >elohiym >, with their

princes <5257


n@ciyk >, [and] with their precious <2532 chemdah > vessels

<3627 k@liy > of


silver <3701 keceph > and of gold <2091 zahab >; and he shall

continue <5975


<amad > [more] years <8141 shaneh > than the king <4428 melek >

of the north


<6828 tsaphown >.




 9 So the king <4428 melek > of the south <5045 negeb > shall

come <0935 bow>


> into [his] kingdom <4438 malkuwth >, and shall return <7725

shuwb > into


<0413 >el > his own land <0127 >adamah >.




 10 But his sons <1121 ben > shall be stirred <1624 garah > up,

and shall


assemble <0622 >acaph > a multitude <1995 hamown > of great

<7227 rab >


forces <2428 chayil >: and [one] shall certainly come <0935 bow>

>, and


overflow <7857 shataph >, and pass <5674 <abar > through: then

shall he


return <7725 shuwb >, and be stirred <1624 garah > up, [even] to

his fortress


<4581 ma<owz >.




 11 And the king <4428 melek > of the south <5045 negeb > shall

be moved with


choler <4843 marar >, and shall come <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318

yatsa> > and


fight <3898 lacham > with him, [even] with the king <4428 melek

> of the


north <6828 tsaphown >: and he shall set <5975 <amad > forth

<5975 <amad > a


great <7227 rab > multitude <1995 hamown >; but the multitude

<1995 hamown >


shall be given <5414 nathan > into his hand <3027 yad >.




 12 [And] when he hath taken <5375 nasa> > away the multitude

<1995 hamown >,


his heart <3824 lebab > shall be lifted <7311 ruwm > up; and he

shall cast


<5307 naphal > down <5307 naphal > [many] ten <7239 ribbow >

thousands <7239


ribbow >: but he shall not be strengthened <5810 <azaz > [by it].




 13 For the king <4428 melek > of the north <6828 tsaphown >

shall return


<7725 shuwb >, and shall set <5975 <amad > forth a multitude

<1995 hamown >


greater <7227 rab > than <4480 min > the former <7223 ri>shown >,

 and shall


certainly come <0935 bow> > after <7093 qets > certain <6256

<eth > years


<8141 shaneh > with a great <1419 gadowl > army <2428 chayil >

and with much


riches <7399 r@kuwsh >.




 14 And in those <1992 hem > times <6256 <eth > there shall many

<7227 rab >


stand <5975 <amad > up against <5921 <al > the king <4428 melek

> of the


south <5045 negeb >: also the robbers <6530 p@riyts > of thy

people <5971 <am


> shall exalt <5375 nasa> > themselves to establish <5975 <amad

> the vision


<2377 chazown >; but they shall fall <3782 kashal >.




 15 So the king <4428 melek > of the north <6828 tsaphown >

shall come <0935


bow> >, and cast <8210 shaphak > up a mount <5550 col@lah >, and

take <3920


lakad > the most fenced <4013 mibtsar > cities <5892 <iyr >: and

the arms


<2220 z@rowa< > of the south <5045 negeb > shall not withstand

<5975 <amad >,


neither <0369 >ayin > his chosen <4005 mibchar > people <5971

<am >, neither


<0369 >ayin > [shall there be any] strength <3581 koach > to

withstand <5975


<amad >.




 16 But he that cometh <0935 bow> > against <0413 >el > him

shall do <6213


<asah > according to his own <7522 ratsown > will <7522 ratsown

>, and none


<0369 >ayin > shall stand <5975 <amad > before <6440 paniym >

him: and he


shall stand <5975 <amad > in the glorious <6643 ts@biy > land

<0776 >erets >,


which by his hand <3027 yad > shall be consumed <3615 kalah >.




 17 He shall also set <7760 suwm > his face <6440 paniym > to

enter <0935


bow> > with the strength <8633 toqeph > of his whole <3605 kol >

kingdom


<4438 malkuwth >, and upright <3477 yashar > ones with him; thus

shall he do


<6213 <asah >: and he shall give <5414 nathan > him the daughter

<1323 bath >


of women <0802 >ishshah >, corrupting <7843 shachath > her: but

she shall not


stand <5975 <amad > [on his side], neither <3808 lo> > be for

him.




 18 After this shall he turn <7725 shuwb > his face <6440 paniym

> unto the


isles <0339 >iy >, and shall take <3920 lakad > many <7227 rab >:

 but a


prince <7101 qatsiyn > for his own behalf shall cause the

reproach <2781


cherpah > offered by him to cease <7673 shabath >; without <1115

biltiy > his


own reproach <2781 cherpah > he shall cause [it] to turn <7725

shuwb > upon


him.




 19 Then he shall turn <7725 shuwb > his face <6440 paniym >

toward the fort


<4581 ma<owz > of his own land <0776 >erets >: but he shall

stumble <3782


kashal > and fall <5307 naphal >, and not be found <4672 matsa>

>.




 20 Then shall stand <5975 <amad > up in his estate <3653 ken >

a raiser


<5674 <abar > of taxes <5065 nagas > [in] the glory <1925 heder

> of the


kingdom <4438 malkuwth >: but within few <0259 >echad > days

<3117 yowm > he


shall be destroyed <7665 shabar >, neither <3808 lo> > in anger

<0639 >aph >,


nor <3808 lo> > in battle <4421 milchamah >.




 21. And in his estate <3653 ken > shall stand <5975 <amad > up

a vile <0959


bazah > person, to whom <5921 <al > they shall not give <5414

nathan > the


honour <1935 howd > of the kingdom <4438 malkuwth >: but he

shall come <0935


bow> > in peaceably <7962 shalvah >, and obtain <2388 chazaq >

the kingdom


<4438 malkuwth > by flatteries <2519 chalaqlaqqah >.




 22 And with the arms <2220 z@rowa< > of a flood <7858 sheteph >

shall they


be overflown <7857 shataph > from before <6440 paniym > him, and

shall be


broken <7665 shabar >; yea <1571 gam >, also <1571 gam > the

prince <5057


nagiyd > of the covenant <1285 b@riyth >.




 23 And after the league <2266 chabar > [made] with him he shall

work <6213


<asah > deceitfully <4820 mirmah >: for he shall come <5927

<alah > up, and


shall become <6105 <atsam > strong <6105 <atsam > with a small

<4592 m@<at >


people <1471 gowy >.




 24 He shall enter <0935 bow> > peaceably <7962 shalvah > even

upon the


fattest <4924 mashman > places of the province <4082 m@diynah >;

and he shall


do <6213 <asah > [that] which <0834 >aher > his fathers <1> have

not done


<6213 <asah >, nor his fathers <1>' fathers <1>; he shall

scatter <0967 bazar


> among them the prey <0961 bizzah >, and spoil <7998 shalal >,

and riches


<7399 r@kuwsh >: [yea], and he shall forecast <2803 chashab >

his devices


<4284 machashabah > against <5921 <al > the strong <4013 mibtsar

> holds


<4013 mibtsar >, even for a time <6256 <eth >.




 25 And he shall stir <5782 <uwr > up his power <3581 koach >

and his courage


<3824 lebab > against <5921 <al > the king <4428 melek > of the

south <5045


negeb > with a great <1419 gadowl > army <2428 chayil >; and the

king <4428


melek > of the south <5045 negeb > shall be stirred <1624 garah

> up to


battle <4421 milchamah > with a very great <1419 gadowl > and

mighty <6099


<atsuwm > army <2428 chayil >; but he shall not stand <5975

<amad >: for they


shall forecast <2803 chashab > devices <4284 machashabah >

against <5921 <al


> him.




 26 Yea, they that feed <0398 >akal > of the portion <6598

pathbag > of his


meat <6598 pathbag > shall destroy <7665 shabar > him, and his

army <2428


chayil > shall overflow <7857 shataph >: and many <7227 rab >

shall fall


<5307 naphal > down slain <2491 chalal >.




 27 And both <8147 sh@nayim > these kings <4428 melek >' hearts

<3824 lebab >


[shall be] to do mischief <4827 mera< >, and they shall speak

<1696 dabar >


lies <3576 kazab > at <5921 <al > one <0259 >echad > table <7979

shulchan >;


but it shall not prosper <6743 tsalach >: for yet <5750 <owd >

the end <7093


qets > [shall be] at the time appointed <4150 mow<ed >.




 28 Then shall he return <7725 shuwb > into his land <0776

>erets > with


great <1419 gadowl > riches <7399 r@kuwsh >; and his heart <3824

lebab >


[shall be] against <5921 <al > the holy <6944 qodesh > covenant

<1285 b@riyth


>; and he shall do <6213 <asah > [exploits], and return <7725

shuwb > to his


own land <0776 >erets >.




 29 At the time appointed <4150 mow<ed > he shall return <7725

shuwb >, and


come <0935 bow> > toward the south <5045 negeb >; but it shall

not be as the


former <7223 ri>shown >, or as the latter <0314 >acharown >.




 30 For the ships <6716 tsiy > of Chittim <3794 Kittiy > shall

come <0935


bow> > against him: therefore he shall be grieved <3512 ka>ah >,

and return


<7725 shuwb >, and have indignation <2194 za<am > against <5921

<al > the


holy <6944 qodesh > covenant <1285 b@riyth >: so shall he do

<6213 <asah >;


he shall even return <7725 shuwb >, and have intelligence <0995

biyn > with


them that forsake <5800 <azab > the holy <6944 qodesh > covenant

<1285


b@riyth >.




 31 And arms <2220 z@rowa< > shall stand <5975 <amad > on his

part <2506


cheleq >, and they shall pollute <2490 chalal > the sanctuary

<4720 miqdash >


of strength <4581 ma<owz >, and shall take <5493 cuwr > away

<5493 cuwr > the


daily <8548 tamiyd > [sacrifice], and they shall place <5414

nathan > the


abomination <8251 shiqquwts > that maketh desolate <8074 shamem

>.




 32 And such as do wickedly <7561 rasha< > against the covenant

<1285 b@riyth


> shall he corrupt <2610 chaneph > by flatteries <2514 chalaqqah

>: but the


people <5971 <am > that do know <3045 yada< > their God <0430

>elohiym >


shall be strong <2388 chazaq >, and do <6213 <asah > [exploits].




 33 And they that understand <7919 sakal > among the people

<5971 <am > shall


instruct <0995 biyn > many <7227 rab >: yet they shall fall

<3782 kashal > by


the sword <2719 chereb >, and by flame <3852 lehabah >, by

captivity <7628


sh@biy >, and by spoil <0961 bizzah >, [many] days <3117 yowm >.




 34 Now when they shall fall <3782 kashal >, they shall be

holpen <5826 <azar


> with a little <4592 m@<at > help <5828 <ezer >: but many <7227

rab > shall


cleave <3867 lavah > to them with flatteries <2519 chalaqlaqqah

>.




 35 And [some] of them of understanding <7919 sakal > shall fall

<3782 kashal


>, to try <6884 tsaraph > them, and to purge <1305 barar >, and

to make


[them] white <3835 laban >, [even] to the time <6256 <eth > of

the end <7093


qets >: because [it is] yet <5750 <owd > for a time appointed

<4150 mow<ed >.






 36 And the king <4428 melek > shall do <6213 <asah > according

to his will


<7522 ratsown >; and he shall exalt <7311 ruwm > himself, and

magnify <1431


gadal > himself above <5921 <al > every <3605 kol > god <0410

>el >, and


shall speak <1696 dabar > marvellous <6381 pala> > things

against <5921 <al >


the God <0410 >el > of gods <0410 >el >, and shall prosper <6743

tsalach >


till <5704 <ad > the indignation <2195 za<am > be accomplished

<3615 kalah >:


for that that is determined <2782 charats > shall be done <6213

<asah >.




 37 Neither <3808 lo> > shall he regard <0995 biyn > the God

<0430 >elohiym >


of his fathers <1>, nor the desire <2532 chemdah > of women

<0802 >ishshah >,


nor <3808 lo> > regard <0995 biyn > any <3605 kol > god <0433

>elowahh >: for


he shall magnify <1431 gadal > himself above <5921 <al > all

<3605 kol >.




 38 But in his estate <3653 ken > shall he honour <3513 kabad >

the God <0433


>elowahh > of forces <4581 ma<owz >: and a god <0433 >elowahh >

whom <0834


>aher > his fathers <1> knew <3045 yada< > not shall he honour

<3513 kabad >


with gold <2091 zahab >, and silver <3701 keceph >, and with

precious <3368


yaqar > stones <68>, and pleasant <2530 chamad > things.




 39 Thus shall he do <6213 <asah > in the most <4581 ma<owz >

strong <4581


ma<owz > holds <4013 mibtsar > with a strange <5236 nekar > god

<0433


>elowahh >, whom <0834 >aher > he shall acknowledge <5234 nakar

> [and]


increase <7235 rabah > with glory <3519 kabowd >: and he shall

cause them to


rule <4910 mashal > over many <7227 rab >, and shall divide

<2505 chalaq >


the land <0127 >adamah > for gain <4242 m@chiyr >.




 40 And at the time <6256 <eth > of the end <7093 qets > shall

the king <4428


melek > of the south <5045 negeb > push <5055 nagach > at him:

and the king


<4428 melek > of the north <6828 tsaphown > shall come <8175

sa<ar > against


<5921 <al > him like a whirlwind <8175 sa<ar >, with chariots

<7393 rekeb >,


and with horsemen <6571 parash >, and with many <7227 rab >

ships <0591


>oniyah >; and he shall enter <0935 bow> > into the countries

<0776 >erets >,


and shall overflow <7857 shataph > and pass <5674 <abar > over

<5674 <abar >.






 41 He shall enter <0935 bow> > also into the glorious <6643

ts@biy > land


<0776 >erets >, and many <7227 rab > [countries] shall be

overthrown <3782


kashal >: but these <0428 >el-leh > shall escape <4422 malat >

out of his


hand <3027 yad >, [even] Edom <0123 >Edom >, and Moab <4124

Mow>ab >, and the


chief <7225 re>shiyth > of the children <1121 ben > of Ammon

<5983 <Ammown >.






 42 He shall stretch <7971 shalach > forth his hand <3027 yad >

also upon the


countries <0776 >erets >: and the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt

<4714


Mitsrayim > shall not escape <6413 p@leytah >.




 43 But he shall have power <4910 mashal > over the treasures

<4362 mikman >


of gold <2091 zahab > and of silver <3701 keceph >, and over all

<3605 kol >


the precious <2530 chamad > things of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >:

and the


Libyans <3864 Luwbiy > and the Ethiopians <3569 Kuwshiy > [shall

be] at his


steps <4703 mits<ad >.




 44 But tidings <8052 sh@muw<ah > out of the east <4217 mizrach

> and out of


the north <6828 tsaphown > shall trouble <0926 bahal > him:

therefore he


shall go <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > with great <1419

gadowl > fury


<2534 chemah > to destroy <8045 shamad >, and utterly to make

away <2763


charam > many <7227 rab >.




 45 And he shall plant <5193 nata< > the tabernacles <0168 >ohel

> of his


palace <0643 >appeden > between <0996 beyn > the seas <3220 yam

> in the


glorious <6643 ts@biy > holy <6944 qodesh > mountain <2022 har >;

 yet he


shall come <0935 bow> > to his end <7093 qets >, and none <0369

>ayin > shall


help <5826 <azar > him.
