25 “Through^a his cunning
He shall cause deceit to prosper under his¹ rule;
^bAnd he shall exalt himself in his heart.
He shall destroy many in their prosperity.
^cHe shall even rise against the Prince of princes;
But he shall be ^dbroken without human means. ‡

26 “And the vision of the evenings and mornings
Which was told is true;
^aTherefore seal up the vision,
For it refers to many days in the future.”  ‡
