Daniel 11:37-39
New English Translation
37 He will not respect[a] the gods of his fathers—not even the god loved by women.[b] He will not respect any god; he will elevate himself above them all. 38 What he will honor is a god of fortresses—a god his fathers did not acknowledge he will honor with gold, silver, valuable stones, and treasured commodities. 39 He will attack[c] mighty fortresses, aided by[d] a foreign deity. To those who recognize him he will grant considerable honor. He will place them in authority over many people, and he will parcel out land for a price.[e]
