Daniel 11:37

French (NBS) 2002 (Nouvelle Bible Segond)

Il n'aura d'attention ni pour les dieux de ses pères, ni pour le Bien-Aimé des femmes; il n'aura d'attention pour aucun dieu, car il se glorifiera au-dessus de tous.

Que signifie ce verset ?

This verse describes a future ruler who will not respect the God of his ancestors, nor will he care about anything else but himself. He is very arrogant and puts himself above everything.

Expliqué aux enfants

Imagine there's a king in the future who doesn't like to listen to anyone or anything except himself. It’s like if your friend said they don’t want toys or games from others, only what they choose for themselves.
