DA-8:1 In the third year of the reign of king Belshazzar a
vision appeared
unto me, [even unto] me Daniel, after that which appeared unto
me at the
first.
DA-8:2 And I saw in a vision; and it came to pass, when I saw,
that I [was]
at Shushan [in] the palace, which [is] in the province of Elam;
and I saw in a
vision, and I was by the river of Ulai.
DA-8:3 Then I lifted up mine eyes, and saw, and, behold, there
stood before
the river a ram which had [two] horns: and the [two] horns
[were] high; but
one [was] higher than the other, and the higher came up last.
DA-8:4 I saw the ram pushing westward, and northward, and
southward; so that
no beasts might stand before him, neither [was there any] that
could deliver
out of his hand; but he did according to his will, and became
great.
DA-8:5 And as I was considering, behold, an he goat came from
the west on the
face of the whole earth, and touched not the ground: and the
goat [had] a
notable horn between his eyes.
DA-8:6 And he came to the ram that had [two] horns, which I had
seen standing
before the river, and ran unto him in the fury of his power.
DA-8:7 And I saw him come close unto the ram, and he was moved
with choler
against him, and smote the ram, and brake his two horns: and
there was no
power in the ram to stand before him, but he cast him down to
the ground, and
stamped upon him: and there was none that could deliver the ram
out of his
hand.
DA-8:8 Therefore the he goat waxed very great: and when he was
strong, the
great horn was broken; and for it came up four notable ones
toward the four
winds of heaven.
DA-8:9 And out of one of them came forth a little horn, which
waxed exceeding
great, toward the south, and toward the east, and toward the
pleasant [land].
DA-8:10 And it waxed great, [even] to the host of heaven; and
it cast down
[some] of the host and of the stars to the ground, and stamped
upon them.
DA-8:11 Yea, he magnified [himself] even to the prince of the
host, and by
him the daily [sacrifice] was taken away, and the place of his
sanctuary was
cast down.
DA-8:12 And an host was given [him] against the daily
[sacrifice] by reason
of transgression, and it cast down the truth to the ground; and
it practiced,
and prospered.
DA-8:13 Then I heard one saint speaking, and another saint said
unto that
certain [saint] which spake, How long [shall be] the vision
[concerning] the
daily [sacrifice], and the transgression of desolation, to give
both the
sanctuary and the host to be trodden under foot?
DA-8:14 And he said unto me, Unto two thousand and three
hundred days; then
shall the sanctuary be cleansed.
DA-8:15 And it came to pass, when I, [even] I Daniel, had seen
the vision,
and sought for the meaning, then, behold, there stood before me
as the
appearance of a man.
DA-8:16 And I heard a man's voice between [the banks of] Ulai,
which called,
and said, Gabriel, make this [man] to understand the vision.
DA-8:17 So he came near where I stood: and when he came, I was
afraid, and
fell upon my face: but he said unto me, Understand, O son of man:
for at the
time of the end [shall be] the vision.
DA-8:18 Now as he was speaking with me, I was in a deep sleep
on my face
toward the ground: but he touched me, and set me upright.
DA-8:19 And he said, Behold, I will make thee know what shall
be in the last
end of the indignation: for at the time appointed the end [shall
be].
DA-8:20 The ram which thou sawest having [two] horns [are] the
kings of Media
and Persia.
DA-8:21 And the rough goat [is] the king of Grecia: and the
great horn that
[is] between his eyes [is] the first king.
DA-8:22 Now that being broken, whereas four stood up for it,
four kingdoms
shall stand up out of the nation, but not in his power.
DA-8:23 And in the latter time of their kingdom, when the
transgressors are
come to the full, a king of fierce countenance, and
understanding dark
sentences, shall stand up.
DA-8:24 And his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power:
and he shall
destroy wonderfully, and shall prosper, and practice, and shall
destroy the
mighty and the holy people.
DA-8:25 And through his policy also he shall cause craft to
prosper in his
hand; and he shall magnify [himself] in his heart, and by peace
shall destroy
many: he shall also stand up against the Prince of princes; but
he shall be
broken without hand.
DA-8:26 And the vision of the evening and the morning which was
told [is]
true: wherefore shut thou up the vision; for it [shall be] for
many days.
DA-8:27 And I Daniel fainted, and was sick [certain] days;
afterward I rose
up, and did the king's business; and I was astonished at the
vision, but none
