THE KINGS OF THE SOUTH AND THE NORTH - Jan 01, 2000
THE WISE WILL INSTRUCT MANY
Key verse: 33
NIV
28 The king of the North will return to his own country with great wealth, but his heart will be set against the holy covenant. He will take action against it and then return to his own country.
29 “At the appointed time he will invade the South again, but this time the outcome will be different from what it was before. 30 Ships of the western coastlands(A) will oppose him, and he will lose heart.(B) Then he will turn back and vent his fury(C) against the holy covenant. He will return and show favor to those who forsake the holy covenant.
31 “His armed forces will rise up to desecrate the temple fortress and will abolish the daily sacrifice.(D) Then they will set up the abomination that causes desolation.(E) 32 With flattery he will corrupt those who have violated the covenant, but the people who know their God will firmly resist(F) him.
33 “Those who are wise will instruct(G) many, though for a time they will fall by the sword or be burned or captured or plundered.(H) 34 When they fall, they will receive a little help, and many who are not sincere(I) will join them. 35 Some of the wise will stumble, so that they may be refined,(J) purified and made spotless until the time of the end, for it will still come at the appointed time.
The King Who Exalts Himself
36 “The king will do as he pleases. He will exalt and magnify himself(K) above every god and will say unheard-of things(L) against the God of gods.(M) He will be successful until the time of wrath(N) is completed, for what has been determined must take place.(O) 37 He will show no regard for the gods of his ancestors or for the one desired by women, nor will he regard any god, but will exalt himself above them all. 38 Instead of them, he will honor a god of fortresses; a god unknown to his ancestors he will honor with gold and silver, with precious stones and costly gifts. 39 He will attack the mightiest fortresses with the help of a foreign god and will greatly honor those who acknowledge him. He will make them rulers over many people and will distribute the land at a price.[a]
40 “At the time of the end the king of the South(P) will engage him in battle, and the king of the North will storm(Q) out against him with chariots and cavalry and a great fleet of ships. He will invade many countries and sweep through them like a flood.(R) 41 He will also invade the Beautiful Land.(S) Many countries will fall, but Edom,(T) Moab(U) and the leaders of Ammon will be delivered from his hand. 42 He will extend his power over many countries; Egypt will not escape. 43 He will gain control of the treasures of gold and silver and all the riches of Egypt,(V) with the Libyans(W) and Cushites[b] in submission. 44 But reports from the east and the north will alarm him, and he will set out in a great rage to destroy and annihilate many. 45 He will pitch his royal tents between the seas at[c] the beautiful holy mountain.(X) Yet he will come to his end, and no one will help him.

ESV
28 And he shall return to his land with great wealth, but his heart shall be set against the holy covenant. And he shall work his will and return to his own land.
29 “At the time appointed he shall return and come into the south, but it shall not be this time as it was before. 30 For ships of (A)Kittim shall come against him, and he shall be afraid and withdraw, and shall turn back and (B)be enraged and (C)take action against the holy covenant. He shall turn back and pay attention to those who forsake the holy covenant. 31 Forces from him shall appear and (D)profane the temple and fortress, and shall take away the regular burnt offering. And (E)they shall set up the abomination that makes desolate. 32 He shall seduce with flattery those who violate the covenant, but the people who know their God shall stand firm and take action. 33 (F)And the wise among the people shall make many understand, though for some days they shall stumble by sword and flame, by captivity and plunder. 34 When they stumble, they shall receive a little help. And many shall join themselves to them with flattery, 35 and some of the wise shall stumble, so that they may be refined, (G)purified, and (H)made white, until (I)the time of the end, (J)for it still awaits the appointed time.
36 “And the king shall (K)do as he wills. (L)He shall exalt himself and magnify himself above every god, (M)and shall speak astonishing things against (N)the God of gods. (O)He shall prosper (P)till the indignation is accomplished; for what is decreed shall be done. 37 He shall pay no attention to the gods of his fathers, or to the one beloved by women. He shall not pay attention to any other god, for (Q)he shall magnify himself above all. 38 He shall honor the god of fortresses instead of these. A god whom his fathers did not know he shall honor (R)with gold and silver, with precious stones and costly gifts. 39 He shall deal with the strongest fortresses with the help of a foreign god. Those who acknowledge him he shall load with honor. He shall make them rulers over many and (S)shall divide the land for a price.[a]
40 (T)“At the time of the end, the king of the south shall attack[b] him, but the king of the north shall rush upon him (U)like a whirlwind, with chariots and horsemen, and with many ships. And he shall come into countries and (V)shall overflow and pass through. 41 He shall come into (W)the glorious land. And tens of thousands shall fall, but these shall be delivered out of his hand: (X)Edom and (Y)Moab and the main part of the (Z)Ammonites. 42 He shall stretch out his hand against the countries, and the land of Egypt shall not escape. 43 He shall become ruler of the treasures of gold and of silver, and all the precious things of Egypt, and the (AA)Libyans and the (AB)Cushites shall follow in his train. 44 But news from the east and the north shall alarm him, and he shall go out with great fury to destroy and devote many to destruction. 45 And he shall pitch his palatial tents between the sea and the glorious holy mountain. Yet he shall come to his end, with none to help him.
