1 # In the third <07969> year <08141> of the reign <04438> of king <04428> Belshazzar <01112> a vision <02377> appeared <07200> (8738) unto me, even unto me Daniel <01840>, after <0310> that which appeared <07200> (8738) unto me at the first <08462>.
2 And I saw <07200> (8799) in a vision <02377>; and it came to pass, when I saw <07200> (8800), that I was at Shushan <07800> in the palace <01002>, which is in the province <04082> of Elam <05867>; and I saw <07200> (8799) in a vision <02377>, and I was by the river <0180> of Ulai <0195>.
3 Then I lifted up <05375> (8799) mine eyes <05869>, and saw <07200> (8799), and, behold, there stood <05975> (8802) before <06440> the river <0180> a <0259> ram <0352> which had two horns <07161>: and the two horns <07161> were high <01364>; but one <0259> was higher <01364> than the other <08145>, and the higher <01364> came up <05927> (8802) last <0314>.
4 I saw <07200> (8804) the ram <0352> pushing <05055> (8764) westward <03220>, and northward <06828>, and southward <05045>; so that no beasts <02416> might stand <05975> (8799) before <06440> him, neither was there any that could deliver <05337> (8688) out of his hand <03027>; but he did <06213> (8804) according to his will <07522>, and became great <01431> (8689).
5 And as I was considering <0995> (8688), behold, an he <05795> goat <06842> came <0935> (8802) from the west <04628> on the face <06440> of the whole earth <0776>, and touched <05060> (8802) not the ground <0776>: and the goat <06842> had a notable <02380> horn <07161> between his eyes <05869>.
6 And he came <0935> (8799) to the ram <0352> that had <01167> two horns <07161>, which I had seen <07200> (8804) standing <05975> (8802) before <06440> the river <0180>, and ran <07323> (8799) unto him in the fury <02534> of his power <03581>.
7 And I saw <07200> (8804) him come <05060> (8688) close unto <0681> the ram <0352>, and he was moved with choler <04843> (8698) against him, and smote <05221> (8686) the ram <0352>, and brake <07665> (8762) his two <08147> horns <07161>: and there was no power <03581> in the ram <0352> to stand <05975> (8800) before <06440> him, but he cast him down <07993> (8686) to the ground <0776>, and stamped <07429> (8799) upon him: and there was none that could deliver <05337> (8688) the ram <0352> out of his hand <03027>.
8 Therefore the he <06842> goat <05795> waxed very <03966> great <01431> (8689): and when he was strong <06105> (8800), the great <01419> horn <07161> was broken <07665> (8738); and for it came up <05927> (8799) four <0702> notable ones <02380> toward the four <0702> winds <07307> of heaven <08064>.
9 And out of one <0259> of them came forth <03318> (8804) a little <04704> horn <07161>, which waxed exceeding <03499> great <01431> (8799), toward the south <05045>, and toward the east <04217>, and toward the pleasant <06643> land .
10 And it waxed great <01431> (8799), even to the host <06635> of heaven <08064>; and it cast down <05307> (8686) some of the host <06635> and of the stars <03556> to the ground <0776>, and stamped <07429> (8799) upon them.
11 Yea, he magnified <01431> (8689) himself even to the prince <08269> of the host <06635>, and by him the daily <08548> sacrifice was taken away <07311> (8717) (8675) <07311> (8689), and the place <04349> of his sanctuary <04720> was cast down <07993> (8717).
12 And an host <06635> was given <05414> (8735) him against the daily <08548> sacrifice by reason of transgression <06588>, and it cast down <07993> (8686) the truth <0571> to the ground <0776>; and it practised <06213> (8804) , and prospered <06743> (8689).
13 Then I heard <08085> (8799) one <0259> saint <06918> speaking <01696> (8764), and another <0259> saint <06918> said <0559> (8799) unto that certain <06422> saint which spake <01696> (8764), How long shall be the vision <02377> concerning the daily <08548> sacrifice, and the transgression <06588> of desolation <08074> (8802) , to give <05414> (8800) both the sanctuary <06944> and the host <06635> to be trodden under foot <04823>?
14 And he said <0559> (8799) unto me, Unto two thousand <0505> and three <07969> hundred <03967> days <06153> <01242>; then shall the sanctuary <06944> be cleansed <06663> (8738).
15 # And it came to pass, when I, even I Daniel <01840>, had seen <07200> (8800) the vision <02377>, and sought <01245> (8762) for the meaning <0998>, then, behold, there stood <05975> (8802) before me as the appearance <04758> of a man <01397>.
16 And I heard <08085> (8799) a man's <0120> voice <06963> between the banks of Ulai <0195>, which called <07121> (8799), and said <0559> (8799), Gabriel <01403>, make this <01975> man to understand <0995> (8685) the vision <04758>.
 - ANGELS
17 So he came <0935> (8799) near <0681> where I stood <05977>: and when he came <0935> (8800), I was afraid <01204> (8738), and fell <05307> (8799) upon my face <06440>: but he said <0559> (8799) unto me, Understand <0995> (8685), O son <01121> of man <0120>: for at the time <06256> of the end <07093> shall be the vision <02377> .
18 Now as he was speaking <01696> (8763) with me, I was in a deep sleep <07290> (8738) on my face <06440> toward the ground <0776>: but he touched <05060> (8799) me, and set <05975> (8686) me upright <05977>.
19 And he said <0559> (8799), Behold, I will make thee know <03045> (8688) what shall be in the last end <0319> of the indignation <02195>: for at the time appointed <04150> the end <07093> shall be.
20 The ram <0352> which thou sawest <07200> (8804) having <01167> two horns <07161> are the kings <04428> of Media <04074> and Persia <06539>.
21 And the rough <08163> goat <06842> is the king <04428> of Grecia <03120>: and the great <01419> horn <07161> that is between his eyes <05869> is the first <07223> king <04428>.
22 Now that being broken <07665> (8737), whereas four <0702> stood up <05975> (8799) for it, four <0702> kingdoms <04438> shall stand up <05975> (8799) out of the nation <01471>, but not in his power <03581>.
23 And in the latter time <0319> of their kingdom <04438>, when the transgressors <06586> (8802) are come to the full <08552> (8687), a king <04428> of fierce <05794> countenance <06440>, and understanding <0995> (8688) dark sentences <02420>, shall stand up <05975> (8799).
24 And his power <03581> shall be mighty <06105> (8804), but not by his own power <03581>: and he shall destroy <07843> (8686) wonderfully <06381> (8737), and shall prosper <06743> (8689), and practise <06213> (8804), and shall destroy <07843> (8689) the mighty <06099> and the holy <06918> people <05971>.
25 And through his policy <07922> also he shall cause craft <04820> to prosper <06743> (8689) in his hand <03027> ; and he shall magnify <01431> (8686) himself in his heart <03824>, and by peace <07962> shall destroy <07843> (8686) many <07227>: he shall also stand up <05975> (8799) against the Prince <08269> of princes <08269>; but he shall be broken <07665> (8735) without <0657> hand <03027>.
26 And the vision <04758> of the evening <06153> and the morning <01242> which was told <0559> (8738) is true <0571>: wherefore shut thou up <05640> (8798) the vision <02377>; for it shall be for many <07227> days <03117> .
27 And I Daniel <01840> fainted <01961> (8738), and was sick <02470> (8738) certain days <03117> ; afterward I rose up <06965> (8799), and did <06213> (8799) the king's <04428> business <04399>; and I was astonished <08074> (8709) at the vision <04758>, but none understood <0995> (8688) it.
