342 : Basic English : Daniel 11; 2 Peter 1 ) 1. And as for me, in the first year of Darius the Mede I was on his side to make his position safe and make him strong.
2. And now I will make clear to you what is true. There are still three kings to come in Persia, and the fourth will have much greater wealth than all of them: and when he has become strong through his wealth, he will put his forces in motion against all the kingdoms of Greece.
3. And a strong king will come to power, ruling with great authority and doing whatever is his pleasure.
4. And when he has become strong, his kingdom will be broken and parted to the four winds of heaven; but not to his offspring, for it will be uprooted; and his kingdom will be for the others and not for these: but not with the same authority as his.
5. And the king of the south will be strong, but one of his captains will be stronger than he and will be ruler; and his rule will be a great rule.
