31 And arms shall be placed on his behalf, and they shall pollute the sanctuary of strength and shall take away the daily sacrifice, and they shall place the abomination that makes desolate.
32 And with flatteries he shall cause to sin those that violate the covenant, but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits.
33 And the wise among the people shall give wisdom to many, yet they shall fall by the sword, and by fire, by captivity, and by spoil, for some days.
34 And in their fall, they shall be helped with a little help, but many shall cleave to them with flatteries.
35 And some of the wise shall fall to be purged and cleaned and made white, even to the time of the end because even for this there is time appointed.
36 And the king shall do according to his will, and he shall exalt himself and magnify himself above every god and shall speak marvels against the God of gods and shall prosper until the indignation is accomplished, for the determination has been made.
37 Neither shall he care for the God of his fathers, nor the love of women, nor care for any god, for he shall magnify himself above all.
