Daniel 11:36-38

International Standard Version

The King Who Calls Himself God

³⁶ “‘The king will do as he pleases. He’ll exalt and magnify himself above every god, speaking amazing things against the God of Gods. He’ll succeed until the indignation is completed, because what has been determined must be carried out. ³⁷ He’ll recognize neither the gods of his ancestors nor those desired by women—he won’t recognize any god, because he’ll exalt himself above everything. ³⁸ He’ll glorify the god of fortresses,^[a] a god whom his ancestors never knew, honoring him with gold, silver, valuable jewels, and treasures.
