|
# He will wake up his power and his heart
|

|
|
|
"will fight against him"
|
|
|
|
# he will not stand
|
|
|

Not standing represents being defeated. AT: "the king of the South will be defeated" or "his army will be defeated" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])

# His army will be swept away like a flood

Here the severe defeat of an army is spoken of as a flood of water that completely sweeps it away. AT: "The enemy will completely defeat his army" or "His enemy will completely destroy his army as a flood destroys everything in its path" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])

# many of them will fall killed

# will sit at the same table

|
|
# but it will be of no use

|
|
|
"but their talking will not help them"
|
|
|
|
# For the end will come at the time that has been fixed
