15 Then the king of the North will come, build up a siege ramp, and capture a fortified city. The forces of the South will not stand; even their best troops will not be able to resist. 16 The invader will do as he pleases, and no one will stand against him.

He will give him a daughter in marriage in order to overthrow the kingdom, but his plan will not succeed or help him.
