Daniel 11:33-35
1599 Geneva Bible
33 And they that understand among the [a]people, shall instruct many: [b]yet they shall fall by sword, and by flame, by captivity and by spoil many days.
34 Now when they shall fall, they shall be holpen with a [c]little help: but many shall cleave unto them [d]feignedly.
35 And some of them [e]of understanding shall fall to try them, and to purge, and to make them white, till the time be out: for there is a time appointed.
