13 For the King of the North [a]shall return, and shall set forth a greater multitude than afore, and shall come forth (after certain years) with a mighty army, and great riches.

14 And at the same time there shall [b]many stand up against the king of the South: also the rebellious children of thy [c]people shall exalt themselves to establish the vision, but they shall fall.

15 So the King of the North shall come, and cast up a mount, and take the strong city: and the arms of the South shall [d]not resist, neither his chosen people, neither shall there be any strength to withstand.
