1"And I, in the first year of Darius the Mede, stood up to strengthen and protect him.
“Also, I in the first year of Darius the Mede, even I stood to confirm and to strengthen him,”
“Also in the first year of Darius the Mede, I, even I, stood up to confirm and strengthen him.”

2Now then, I will tell you the truth: Three more kings will arise in Persia, and then a fourth, who will be far richer than all the others. By the power of his wealth, he will stir up everyone against the kingdom of Greece.

3Then a mighty king will arise, who will rule with great authority and do as he pleases.
“Then a mighty king shall arise who shall rule with great dominion and do according to his will.”
“and a mighty king shall stand up that shall rule with great dominion and do according to his will.”
“and a mighty king shall stand up that shall rule with great dominion and do according to his will.”
“And a mighty king shall stand up that shall rule with great dominion, and do according to his will.”
“A mighty king shall stand up that shall rule with great dominion and do according to his will.”
4But as soon as he is established, his kingdom will be broken up and parceled out toward the four winds of heaven. It will not go to his descendants, nor will it have the authority with which he ruled, because his kingdom will be uprooted and given to others.
“And when he shall stand up, his kingdom shall be broken, and shall be divided toward the four winds of heaven, and not to his posterity, nor according to his dominion which he ruled, for his kingdom shall be plucked up even for…”
“And when he is arisen, his kingdom shall be broken up and divided toward the four winds of heaven, but not among his posterity, nor according to his dominion with which he ruled for his kingdom shall be uprooted even for others…”

“when he shall stand up his kingdom shall be broken and shall be divided toward the four winds of heaven. Now here's a bit of detailed prophecy not to his prosperity nor according to his dominion which he ruled for his kingdom…”
5The king of the South will grow strong, but one of his commanders will grow even stronger and will rule his own kingdom with great authority.
“And the king of the south shall be strong, and one of his princes, and he shall be strong above him, and have dominion, his dominion shall be a great dominion.”
“the king of the south shall be strong and one of his princes, and he shall be strong above him, and have dominion, and his dominion shall be a great dominion.”
“the king of the south, that's Egypt, shall become strong as well as one of his princes, and he shall gain power over him and have dominion. His dominion shall be a great dominion.”
6After some years they will form an alliance, and the daughter of the king of the South will go to the king of the North to seal the agreement. But his daughter will not retain her position of power, nor will his strength endure. At that time she will be given up, along with her royal escort and her father and the one who supported her.
“And at the end of some years, they shall join forces for the daughter of the king of the south shall go to the king of the north to make an agreement. But she shall not retain the power of her authority. And neither he nor his…”
“And in the end of years they shall join themselves together for the king's daughter of the south shall come to the king of the north to make an agreement. But she shall not retain the power of the arm. Neither shall he stand on…”
“And in the end of years they shall join themselves together, for the king's daughter of the south shall come to the king of the north to make an agreement, but she shall not retain the power of the arm, neither shall he stand nor…”
“in the end, they'll join themselves together. For the king's daughter of the south shall come to the king of the north to make an agreement, but she shall not retain the power of the arm, neither shall he stand nor his arm, but…”
7But one from her family line will rise up in his place, come against the army of the king of the North, and enter his fortress, fighting and prevailing.
“But out of a branch of her roots shall one stand up in his estate, which will come with an army and shall enter into the fortress of the king of the north and shall deal against them and shall prevail.”
“out of a branch of her roots shall one stand up in his estate which shall come with an army and shall enter into the fortress of the king of the north and shall deal against them and shall prevail.”

8He will take even their gods captive to Egypt, with their metal images and their precious vessels of silver and gold. For some years he will stay away from the king of the North,
“and shall also carry captives into Egypt their gods with their princes and with their precious vessels of silver and of gold. And he shall continue more years than the king of the north.”
“and shall also carry captives into Egypt their gods, with their princes, and with their precious vessels of silver and of gold, and he shall continue more years than the king of the north.”
9who will invade the realm of the king of the South and then return to his own land.
“so the king of the south shall come into his kingdom and shall return into his own land.”
“so the king of the south shall come into his kingdom and shall return into his own land.”
“so the king of the south shall come into his kingdom and shall return into his own land.”
10But his sons will stir up strife and assemble a great army, which will advance forcefully, sweeping through like a flood, and will again carry the battle as far as his fortress.
“But his sons shall be stirred up and shall assemble a multitude of great forces and one shall certainly come and overflow and pass through and then shall he return and be stirred up even to his fortress.”
“but his son shall be stirred up, and shall assemble a multitude of great forces, and one shall certainly come and overflow and pass through, then shall he return and be stirred up even to his fortress.”
11In a rage, the king of the South will march out to fight the king of the North, who will raise a large army, but it will be delivered into the hand of his enemy.
“And the king of the south shall be moved with color and shall come forth and fight with him, even with the king of the north, and he shall set forth a great multitude, but the multitude shall be given into his hand.”
“And the king of the south shall be moved with cholera, and shall come forth and fight with him, even with the king of the north, and he shall set forth a great multitude, but the multitude shall be given into his hand.”
12When the army is carried off, the king of the South will be proud in heart and will cast down tens of thousands, but he will not triumph.
“And when he hath taken away the multitude, his heart shall be lifted up, and he shall cast down many ten thousands, but he shall not be strengthened by it.”
“And when he hath taken away the multitude, his heart shall be lifted up, and he shall cast down many ten thousands, but he shall not be strengthened by it.”
13For the king of the North will raise another army, larger than the first, and after some years he will advance with a great army and many supplies.
“for the king of the north, then shall return and shall set forth a multitude greater than the former and shall certainly come after certain years with a great army and with much riches.”
“For the king of the north shall return, and shall set forth a multitude greater than the former, and shall certainly come after certain years with a great army, and with much riches.”
“For the king of the north shall return and set forth a multitude greater than the former and shall certainly come after certain years with a great army and with much riches.”
14In those times many will rise up against the king of the South. Violent ones among your own people will exalt themselves in fulfillment of the vision, but they will fail.

15Then the king of the North will come, build up a siege ramp, and capture a fortified city. The forces of the South will not stand; even their best troops will not be able to resist.
“So the king of the north shall come and cast up a mountain and take the most fenced cities. And the arms of the south shall not withstand neither his chosen people. Neither shall there be any strength to withstand.”
“So the king of the north, Antiochus the great shall come and cast up a mount and take most of the fence cities and the arms of the south shall not withstand neither his chosen people. Neither shall there be any strength to…”
16The invader will do as he pleases, and no one will stand against him. He will establish himself in the Beautiful Land, with destruction in his hand.
“but he who comes against him shall do according to his own will and no one shall stand against him. He shall stand in the glorious land with destruction in his power.”
“but he that comes against him shall do according to his own will and none shall stand before him and he shall stand in the glorious land and by his hand and by his hand shall be consumed,”
17He will resolve to come with the strength of his whole kingdom, and will reach an agreement with the king of the South. He will give him a daughter in marriage in order to overthrow the kingdom, but his plan will not succeed or help him.
“He shall also set his face to enter with strength of his whole kingdom and upright ones with him. Thus shall he do and he shall give him the daughter of women, corrupting her, but she shall not stand on his side, neither”

“shall stand up in his stead a raiser of taxes in the glory of the kingdom, but within a few days he shall be destroyed, neither in anger nor in battle.”
“Then shall stand up in his estate a raiser of taxes in the glory of his kingdom, but within few days he shall be destroyed neither in anger nor in battle.”
21In his place a despicable person will arise; royal honors will not be given to him, but he will come in a time of peace and seize the kingdom by intrigue.
“and in his place shall arise a vile person to whom they will not give the honor of royalty, but he shall come in peaceably and seize the kingdom by intrigue.”
“And in his estate shall stand up a vile person to whom they shall not give the honor of the kingdom, but he shall come in peaceably and obtain the kingdom by flatteries.”

23After an alliance is made with him, he will act deceitfully; for he will rise to power with only a few people.
“And after the league made with him, he shall work deceitfully for he shall come up and shall become strong with a small people.”
24In a time of peace, he will invade the richest provinces and do what his fathers and forefathers never did. He will lavish plunder, loot, and wealth on his followers, and he will plot against the strongholds—but only for a time.
“He shall enter peaceably even upon the fattest places of the province, and shall do that which his fathers have not done, nor his father's fathers. He shall scatter among them the prey, the spoil, the riches, yea, and he shall…”
25And with a large army he will stir up his power and his courage against the king of the South, who will mobilize a very large and powerful army but will not withstand the plots devised against him.
“And he shall stir up his power and his courage against the king of the south with a great army. And the king of the south shall be stirred up to battle with a very great and mighty army, but he shall not stand for they shall…”
26Those who eat from his provisions will seek to destroy him; his army will be swept away, and many will fall slain.
“Yea, they that feed of the portion of his meat shall destroy him and his army shall overflow and many shall fall down slain.”
“Yea, they that feed of the portions of his meat shall destroy him and his army shall overflow and many shall fall down and be slain.”

“while returning to his land with great riches, his heart shall be moved against the holy covenant. So he shall do damage and return to his own land”
“Then shall he return into his land with great riches. His heart shall be against the holy covenant and he shall do exploits and return to his own land.”
29At the appointed time he will invade the South again, but this time will not be like the first.
“At the time appointed he shall return and come toward the south, but it shall not be as the former or as the latter.”
“at the appointed time. He shall return and go toward the south, but it shall not be like the former or the latter”
“at the time appointed, he shall return and come towards the south, but it shall not be as the former or as the latter.”
