Daniel 11:20-22

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

²⁰ “Then shall arise in his place one who shall send an official for the glory of the kingdom; but within a few days he shall be broken, though not in anger or in battle. ²¹ In his place shall arise a contemptible person on whom royal majesty had not been conferred; he shall come in without warning and obtain the kingdom through intrigue. ²² Armies shall be utterly swept away and broken before him, and the prince of the covenant as well.
