Daniel 11:20-22

New Century Version

²⁰ “The next king of the North will send out a tax collector so he will have plenty of money. In a few years that ruler will be killed, although he will not die in anger or in a battle.

²¹ “That ruler will be followed by a very cruel and hated man, who will not have the honor of being from a king’s family. He will attack the kingdom when the people feel safe, and he will take power by lying to the people. ²² He will sweep away in defeat large and powerful armies and even a prince who made an agreement.
