Daniel 11:18-20
The Message
18-19 “‘Later, he’ll turn his attention to the coastal regions and capture a bunch of prisoners, but a general will step in and put a stop to his bullying ways. The bully will be bullied! He’ll go back home and tend to his own military affairs. But by then he’ll be washed up and soon will be heard of no more.
20 “‘He will be replaced shortly by a real loser, his rule, reputation, and authority already in shreds. And he won’t last long. He’ll slip out of history quietly, without even a fight.

Daniel 11:18-20
New International Version
18 Then he will turn his attention to the coastlands(A) and will take many of them, but a commander will put an end to his insolence and will turn his insolence back on him.(B) 19 After this, he will turn back toward the fortresses of his own country but will stumble and fall,(C) to be seen no more.(D)
20 “His successor will send out a tax collector to maintain the royal splendor.(E) In a few years, however, he will be destroyed, yet not in anger or in battle.
