Daniel 8:24-26

New Living Translation

²⁴ He will become very strong, but not by his own power. He will cause a shocking amount of destruction and succeed in everything he does. He will destroy powerful leaders and devastate the holy people. ²⁵ He will be a master of deception and will become arrogant; he will destroy many without warning. He will even take on the Prince of princes in battle, but he will be broken, though not by human power.

²⁶ “This vision about the 2,300 evenings and mornings^[a] is true. But none of these things will happen for a long time, so keep this vision a secret.”
