Exegesis
The final clause veʿasah kirtsōno {וְעָשָׂה כִּרְצוֹנוֹ | wə-ʿā-śāh kir-ṣō-nō} consists of a vav-consecutive perfect verb and a prepositional phrase ‘according to his will’, emphasizing autonomous action. The English versions preserve the Hebrew verb-first structure and maintain the emphasis on authority and independence.
In context — Daniel 11:3
And a mighty king shall arise, and he shall rule with great dominion and do according to his will.
