[1]In the thirdH7969 yearH8141 of the reignH4438 of kingH4428 BelshazzarH1112 a visionH2377 appearedH7200[H8738] unto me, even unto me DanielH1840, afterH310 that which appearedH7200[H8738] unto me at the firstH8462.
[2]And I sawH7200[H8799] in a visionH2377; and it came to pass, when I sawH7200[H8800], that I was at ShushanH7800 in the palaceH1002, which is in the provinceH4082 of ElamH5867; and I sawH7200[H8799] in a visionH2377, and I was by the riverH180 of UlaiH195.
[3]Then I lifted upH5375[H8799] mine eyesH5869, and sawH7200[H8799], and, behold, there stoodH5975[H8802] beforeH6440 the riverH180 aH259 ramH352 which had two hornsH7161: and the two hornsH7161 were highH1364; but oneH259 was higherH1364 than the otherH8145, and the higherH1364 came upH5927[H8802] lastH314.
[4]I sawH7200[H8804] the ramH352 pushingH5055[H8764] westwardH3220, and northwardH6828, and southwardH5045; so that no beastsH2416 might standH5975[H8799] beforeH6440 him, neither was there any that could deliverH5337[H8688] out of his handH3027; but he didH6213[H8804] according to his willH7522, and became greatH1431.[H8689]
[5]And as I was consideringH995[H8688], behold, an heH5795 goatH6842 cameH935[H8802] from the westH4628 on the faceH6440 of the whole earthH776, and touchedH5060[H8802] not the groundH776: and the goatH6842 had a notableH2380 hornH7161 between his eyesH5869.
[6]And he cameH935[H8799] to the ramH352 that hadH1167 two hornsH7161, which I had seenH7200[H8804] standingH5975[H8802] beforeH6440 the riverH180, and ranH7323[H8799] unto him in the furyH2534 of his powerH3581.
[7]And I sawH7200[H8804] him comeH5060[H8688] close untoH681 the ramH352, and he was moved with cholerH4843[H8698] against him, and smoteH5221[H8686] the ramH352, and brakeH7665[H8762] his twoH8147 hornsH7161: and there was no powerH3581 in the ramH352 to standH5975[H8800] beforeH6440 him, but he cast him downH7993[H8686] to the groundH776, and stampedH7429[H8799] upon him: and there was none that could deliverH5337[H8688] the ramH352 out of his handH3027.
[8]Therefore the heH6842 goatH5795 waxed veryH3966 greatH1431[H8689]: and when he was strongH6105[H8800], the greatH1419 hornH7161 was brokenH7665[H8738]; and for it came upH5927[H8799] fourH702 notable onesH2380 toward the fourH702 windsH7307 of heavenH8064.
[9]And out of oneH259 of them came forthH3318[H8804] a littleH4704 hornH7161, which waxed exceedingH3499 greatH1431[H8799], toward the southH5045, and toward the eastH4217, and toward the pleasant landH6643.
[10]And it waxed greatH1431[H8799], even to the hostH6635 of heavenH8064; and it cast downH5307[H8686] some of the hostH6635 and of the starsH3556 to the groundH776, and stampedH7429 upon themH8799.
[11]Yea, he magnifiedH1431[H8689] himself even to the princeH8269 of the hostH6635, and by him the dailyH8548 sacrifice was taken awayH7311[H8717][H8675][H7311][H8689], and the placeH4349 of his sanctuaryH4720 was cast downH7993.[H8717]
[12]And an hostH6635 was givenH5414[H8735] him against the dailyH8548 sacrifice by reason of transgressionH6588, and it cast downH7993[H8686] the truthH571 to the groundH776; and it practisedH6213[H8804], and prosperedH6743.[H8689]
[13]Then I heardH8085[H8799] oneH259 saintH6918 speakingH1696[H8764], and anotherH259 saintH6918 saidH559[H8799] unto that certainH6422 saint which spakeH1696[H8764], How long shall be the visionH2377 concerning the dailyH8548 sacrifice, and the transgressionH6588 of desolationH8074[H8802], to giveH5414[H8800] both the sanctuaryH6944 and the hostH6635 to be trodden under footH4823?
[14]And he saidH559[H8799] unto me, Unto two thousandH505 and threeH7969 hundredH3967 daysH6153[H1242]; then shall the sanctuaryH6944 be cleansedH6663.[H8738]
[15]And it came to pass, when I, even I DanielH1840, had seenH7200[H8800] the visionH2377, and soughtH1245[H8762] for the meaningH998, then, behold, there stoodH5975[H8802] before me as the appearanceH4758 of a manH1397.
[16]And I heardH8085[H8799] a man'sH120 voiceH6963 between the banks of UlaiH195, which calledH7121[H8799], and saidH559[H8799], GabrielH1403, make thisH1975 man to understandH995[H8685] the visionH4758.
[17]So he cameH935[H8799] nearH681 where I stoodH5977: and when he cameH935[H8800], I was afraidH1204[H8738], and fellH5307[H8799] upon my faceH6440: but he saidH559[H8799] unto me, UnderstandH995[H8685], O sonH1121 of manH120: for at the timeH6256 of the endH7093 shall be the visionH2377.
[18]Now as he was speakingH1696[H8763] with me, I was in a deep sleepH7290[H8738] on my faceH6440 toward the groundH776: but he touchedH5060[H8799] me, and setH5975[H8686] me uprightH5977.
[19]And he saidH559[H8799], Behold, I will make thee knowH3045[H8688] what shall be in the last endH319 of the indignationH2195: for at the time appointedH4150 the end shall beH7093.
[20]The ramH352 which thou sawestH7200[H8804] havingH1167 two hornsH7161 are the kingsH4428 of MediaH4074 and PersiaH6539.
[21]And the roughH8163 goatH6842 is the kingH4428 of GreciaH3120: and the greatH1419 hornH7161 that is between his eyesH5869 is the firstH7223 kingH4428.
[22]Now that being brokenH7665[H8737], whereas fourH702 stood upH5975[H8799] for it, fourH702 kingdomsH4438 shall stand upH5975[H8799] out of the nationH1471, but not in his powerH3581.
[23]And in the latter timeH319 of their kingdomH4438, when the transgressorsH6586[H8802] are come to the fullH8552[H8687], a kingH4428 of fierceH5794 countenanceH6440, and understandingH995[H8688] dark sentencesH2420, shall stand upH5975.[H8799]
[24]And his powerH3581 shall be mightyH6105[H8804], but not by his own powerH3581: and he shall destroyH7843[H8686] wonderfullyH6381[H8737], and shall prosperH6743[H8689], and practiseH6213[H8804], and shall destroyH7843[H8689] the mightyH6099 and the holyH6918 peopleH5971.
[25]And through his policyH7922 also he shall cause craftH4820 to prosperH6743[H8689] in his handH3027; and he shall magnifyH1431[H8686] himself in his heartH3824, and by peaceH7962 shall destroyH7843[H8686] manyH7227: he shall also stand upH5975[H8799] against the PrinceH8269 of princesH8269; but he shall be brokenH7665[H8735] withoutH657 handH3027.
[26]And the visionH4758 of the eveningH6153 and the morningH1242 which was toldH559[H8738] is trueH571: wherefore shut thou upH5640[H8798] the visionH2377; for it shall be for manyH7227 daysH3117.
[27]And I DanielH1840 faintedH1961[H8738], and was sickH2470[H8738] certain daysH3117; afterward I rose upH6965[H8799], and didH6213[H8799] the king'sH4428 businessH4399; and I was astonishedH8074[H8709] at the visionH4758, but none understoodH995 itH8688.
