Daniel 11:38-40
Lexham English Bible
38 But instead[a] he will honor the god of fortresses, a god whom his ancestors[b] did not know. He will honor him with gold, and with silver, and with precious stones[c] and with costly gifts. 39 And he will deal with the fortified strongholds[d] with the help of a foreign god;[e] and he will increase wealth for whoever will acknowledge him, and he will cause them to rule[f] over the many, and he will distribute land for a price.
40 “And at the time of the end the king of the south will attack him, and the king of the north will storm against him with chariots[g] and with horsemen and with many ships, and he will advance against the countries and he will sweep through like a flood.[h]
