“‘The northern king will do whatever he wants. He will brag about himself. He will praise himself and think that he is even better than a god. He will say things that no one has ever heard of.

Then I heard one of the holy ones {\cf2\super [91]} speaking. Then I heard another holy one answer the first one. The first holy one said, “This vision {\cf2\super [92]} shows what will happen to the daily sacrifice. It is about that terrible sin that destroys. It shows what will happen when people destroy the place where the Ruler is worshiped. It shows what will happen when those people step all over that place. It shows what will happen when the people step all over those stars. But how long will these things happen?”
