26. Yes, those who eat of his dainties will destroy him, and his army will be swept away. Many will fall down slain.
27. As for both these kings, their hearts will be to do mischief, and they will speak lies at one table; but it won’t prosper, for the end will still be at the appointed time.
28. Then he will return into his land with great wealth. His heart will be against the holy covenant. He will take action, and return to his own land.
29. “He will return at the appointed time, and come into the south; but it won’t be in the latter time as it was in the former.
30. For ships of Kittim will come against him. Therefore he will be grieved, and will return, and have indignation against the holy covenant, and will take action. He will even return, and have regard to those who forsake the holy covenant.
