Daniel 8:25
and, by his cunning, will he both cause deceit to succeed in his hand, and, in his own heart, will he shew himself to be great, and, by their careless security, will he destroy many,—and, against the ruler of rulers, will he stand up, but, without hand, shall be broken in pieces.

In context
22 Now, as for its being broken in pieces, whereupon there stood up four in its stead, four kingdoms, out of his nation, shall stand up, but not with his strength;
23 but, in the aftertime of their kingdom, when transgressions, have filled up their measure,—there will stand up a king of mighty presence, and skilful in dissimulation;
24 and his strength, will be mighty, but not through his own strength, and, wonderfully, will he destroy, and succeed and act with effect,—and will destroy mighty ones, and the people of holy ones;
25 and, by his cunning, will he both cause deceit to succeed in his hand, and, in his own heart, will he shew himself to be great, and, by their careless security, will he destroy many,—and, against the ruler of rulers, will he stand up, but, without hand, shall be broken in pieces.
26 Now, the revelation of the evening and the morning which hath been told, faithful, indeed it is,—but, thou, close up the vision, because it is for many days.
27 Now, as for me Daniel, then was I sick for days, but I arose and did the business of the king,—and, though I was confounded concerning the revelation, yet could no one discern it.
