Daniel 11:17-19

Good News Translation

¹⁷ “The king of Syria will plan an expedition, using his whole army. Then, in order to destroy his enemy's kingdom, he will make an alliance with him and offer him his daughter^[a] in marriage; but his plan will not succeed. ¹⁸ After that he will attack the nations by the sea and conquer many of them. But a foreign leader will defeat him and put an end to his arrogance; indeed he will turn the arrogance of Syria's king back on him.^{[b] 19} The king will return to the fortresses of his own land, but he will be defeated, and that will be the end of him.
