²³ After an alliance is made with him, he will act deceitfully. He will rise to power with a small nation.^{[a] 24} During a time of peace,^[b] he will come into the richest parts of the province^(A) and do what his fathers and predecessors never did. He will lavish plunder, loot, and wealth on his followers, and he will make plans against fortified cities, but only for a time.

²⁵ ‘With a large army he will stir up his power and his courage against the king of the South. The king of the South will prepare for battle with an extremely large and powerful army, but he will not succeed, because plots will be made against him.
