22 And that that is broken, and four stood up for it, are four kingdoms, which shall stand up [a]of that nation, but not [b]in his strength.

23 And in the end of their kingdom, when the rebellious shall be consumed, a King of [c]fierce countenance, and understanding dark sentences, shall stand up.

24 And his power shall be mighty, but not [d]in his strength: and he shall destroy wonderfully, and shall prosper, and practice, and shall destroy the [e]mighty, and the holy people.
