18After this shall he turne his face vnto the iles, and shall take many: but a prince shall cause his shame to light vpon him, beside that, he shall cause his owne shame to turne vpon him selfe.
19For he shal turne his face toward the fortes of his owne lande: but he shalbe ouerthrowen and fall, and be no more founde.
20Then shall stande vp in his place a rayser of taxes in the glory of the kingdome, & after a fewe dayes he shalbe destroyed, neither in wrath nor in battel.
21In his steede there shal stande vp a vyle person, to whom they shal not geue the honour of the kingdome: but he shall come in peaceably and obtaine the kingdome with flatteries.
22And the armes shalbe ouerflowed with a flud before hym, and shalbe broken, & also the prince of the couenaunt.
23And after the leage made with him, he shall worke deceiptfully: for he shall come vp, and ouercome with a small people.
24He shal enter into the quiet and plentifull prouince, and he shal do that which his fathers haue not done, nor his rathers fathers: he shall deuide among them the pray, and the spoyle, and the substaunce, yea and he shall forecast his deuices against the strong holdes euen for a tyme.
25Also his power & heart shall he stirre vp with a great armie against the kyng of the south, the kyng of the south shalbe moued vnto battayle with a great and a mightie hoast also: neuerthelesse he shal not stande, for they shall forecast deuices against him.
26Yea they that feede of the portion of his meate, shal destroy him, and his armie shall ouerflowe, and many shall fall and be slaine.
27These two kinges hartes shalbe to do mischiefe, & they shall talke of deceipt at one table, but it shal not prosper, for yet the ende shalbe at ye time appointed.
28Then shall he go home agayne into his lande with great substaunce, and set his heart against the holy couenaunt, so shall he do, and returne to his owne lande.
29At the tyme appointed he shall come agayne, and go towarde the south: but the last shall not be as the first.
30For the ships of Chithim shall come against him, therfore he shalbe sorie, and returne, and fret against the holy couenaunt: so shall he do, he shal euen returne and haue intelligence with them that forsake the holy couenaunt.
31And armes shall stande on his part, and they shall pollute the sanctuarie of strength, and shall take away the dayly sacrifice and they shall set vp the abhominable desolation.
32And such as wickedly breake the couenaunt, shall he cause to sinne by flatterie: but the people that knowe their God, shall preuayle and prosper.
