9. Then the latter shall invade the land of the king of the south, and return to his own country.
10. “But his sons shall be aroused and assemble a great armed host, which shall pass through like a flood and again surge around the stronghold.
11. The king of the south, enraged, shall go out to fight against the king of the north, who shall field a great host, but the host shall be given into his hand.
12. When the host is carried off, in the pride of his heart he shall bring down tens of thousands, but he shall not triumph.
13. For the king of the north shall raise another army, greater than before; after some years he shall attack with this large army and great resources.
14. In those times many shall resist the king of the south, and violent ones among your people shall rise up in fulfillment of vision, but they shall stumble.
15. When the king of the north comes, he shall set up siegeworks and take the fortified city by storm. The forces of the south shall not withstand him, and not even his picked troops shall have the strength to withstand.
16. The invader shall do as he wills, with no one to withstand him. He shall stop in the glorious land, and it shall all be in his power.
17. He shall resolve to come with the entire strength of his kingdom. He shall make an alliance with him and give him a daughter in marriage in order to destroy him, but this shall not stand.
18. He shall turn to the coastland and take many prisoners, but a commander shall put an end to his shameful conduct, so that he cannot retaliate.
19. He shall turn to the strongholds of his own land, but shall stumble and fall, to be found no more.
