Daniel 11:15

Then will come in the king of the north, and cast up a rampart, and capture a city of strongholds,—and, the arms of the south, will not rise, nor the people of his chosen ones, and there shall be no strength to rise.

The Emphasised Bible by J. B. Rotherham

In The King James Version

So the king of the north shall come, and cast up a mount, and take the most fenced cities: and the arms of the south shall not withstand, neither his chosen people, neither shall there be any strength to withstand.

In Context

14And, in those times, many, will rise against the king of the south,—and, the sons of the oppressors of thy people, will exalt themselves to confirm the vision, but will be overthrown.

16So shall he that cometh against him do according to his own pleasure, and, none, shall stand before him,—therefore will he take his stand in the beautiful land, and it will languish and be exhausted in his hand.
