Daniel 11:20-22

New Life Version

The Sinful King of Syria

²⁰ “Then one will become king in his place, who will send a man through his great nation to make the people pay taxes. Yet within a short time that king will be killed, but not in anger or in battle. ²¹ A very sinful person will rise to power in his place. He will not be given the honor of being king, but he will come in a time of peace and take over the nation using smooth sounding words and false ways. ²² Armies will be driven away and destroyed in front of him, and also the ruler of the agreement.
