25. Formal Translation And by his understanding he caused deceit to prosper in his hand, and in his heart he will magnify himself, and in tranquility he will destroy many; and against the Prince of princes he will stand, but without a hand he will be broken. |
25. Dynamic Translation Through his cleverness he will make deception succeed by his power, and he will think highly of himself. In a time of safety he will ruin many. He will even challenge the Chief of chiefs, but he will be brought down without any human hand. |
