Daniel 11:35-37

Living Bible

³⁵ “And some who are most gifted in the things of God will stumble in those days and fall, but this will only refine and cleanse them and make them pure until the final end of all their trials, at God’s appointed time.

³⁶ “The king will do exactly as he pleases, claiming to be greater than every god there is, even blaspheming the God of gods, and prospering—until his time is up. For God’s plans are unshakable. ³⁷ He will have no regard for the gods of his fathers, nor for the god beloved of women,^[a] nor any other god, for he will boast that he is greater than them all.
