26 Yea, they that feed of the portion of [b]his meat, shall destroy him: and his army [c]shall overflow: and many shall fall, and be slain.

27 And both these Kings’ hearts shall be to do [d]mischief, and they shall talk of deceit at one table: but it shall not avail: for [e]yet the end shall be at the time appointed.
