He tells of one who will cause a tax collector to pass through the kingdom, of a contemptible person, and of the prince of the covenant
말하는 이가 토색하는 자를 두루 다니게 할 자와 한 비천한 사람과 동맹한 왕을 말함
Daniel 11:20–24: the words go on, “Then one who will cause a tax collector to pass through the kingdom to maintain its glory will stand up in his place; but within few days he shall be destroyed, not in anger, and not in battle. In his place a contemptible person will stand up, to whom they had not given the honor of the kingdom; but he will come in time of security, and will obtain the kingdom by flatteries. The overwhelming forces will be overwhelmed from before him, and will be broken. Yes, also the prince of the covenant. After the treaty made with him he will work deceitfully; for he will come up and will become strong with few people. In time of security he will come even on the fattest places of the province. He will do that which his fathers have not done, nor his fathers’ fathers. He will scatter among them prey, plunder, and wealth. Yes, he will devise his plans against the strongholds, but only for a time.” The text does not say who the one who will cause a tax collector to pass through, the contemptible person and the prince of the covenant are. The Korean Revised Version reads 그 나라의 아름다운 곳으로 두루 다니게 할 것이나 (will cause an exactor to go about through the beautiful place of the kingdom) where WEB reads “to pass through the kingdom to maintain its glory” (11:20), and 동맹한 왕도 그렇게 될 것이며 (so will the allied king also be) where WEB reads “Yes, also the prince of the covenant” (11:22).
