- He will speak words against the Most High - This means that the newest king will openly disagree with the Most High. (See: :en:ta:vol1:translate:figs_idiom)
- He will try ... into his hand - The words "He" and "his" refer to the newest king, not the Most High.
- the holy ones - "the holy people" AT: "God's holy people"
- change festivals and the Law - Both terms refer to the Law of Moses. The festivals were an important part of the religion of Israel in the Old Testament.
- These things will be given into his hand - AT: "The newest king will control the religous festivals and laws" (See: :en:ta:vol2:translate:figs_activepassive)
- one year, two years, and half a year - This means "three and half years" (UDB). This is not the normal way the Israelites counted. Try to translate it in a way that preserves this way of counting. AT: "One year plus two years plus six months"
