1
Then shall there arise unto them kings bearing rule, and they shall call themselves priests of the Most High God.
2
They shall assuredly work iniquity in the holy of holies.
3
And an insolent king shall succeed them, who will not be of the race of the priests, a man bold and shameless.
4
And he shall judge them as they shall deserve. And he shall cut off their chief men with the sword, and he shall destroy them in secret places.
5
And he shall slay the elder and the young, and he shall not spare.
6
Then the fear of him shall be bitter unto them in their land.
7
And he shall execute judgments on them as the Egyptians executed upon them, during thirty and four years. And he shall punish them.
8
And he shall beget children, who succeeding him shall rule for shorter periods.
9
Into their parts cohorts and a powerful king of the west shall come, who shall conquer them.
