8 In the third year of the reign of King Belshazzar, I, Daniel, had a vision appear to me (after the one that appeared to me at the first). 2 I saw in the vision, and as I was looking, that I was in Susa, the citadel, which is in the province of Elam. And I saw in the vision that I was beside the Ulai Canal. 3 Then I lifted my eyes and looked, and behold, a ram standing beside the canal. It had two horns and both horns were high, but one was higher than the other, and the higher one came up last. 4 I saw the ram charging westward, and northward, and southward; no animal could stand before him. There was no one to rescue out of his hand. He did as he pleased and magnified himself.
5 As I was observing, behold, a male goat was coming from the west across the face of the whole earth, without touching the ground. The goat had a conspicuous horn between his eyes. 6 He came to the ram that had two horns, which I had seen standing in front of the canal, and he ran at him in his powerful rage. 7 I saw him come beside the ram, and he was enraged at him, and he struck the ram and shattered his two horns. The ram had no strength to stand before him. So he cast him down to the ground and trampled on him. There was no one who could rescue the ram from his power. 8 Then the male goat magnified himself exceedingly. But when he was mighty, the great horn was broken, and in its place there came up four conspicuous horns toward the four winds of heaven.
9 Out of one of them came forth a little horn, which grew exceedingly great toward the south, toward the east, and toward the Beautiful Land. 10 It grew up to the host of heaven. Some of the host and some of the stars it threw down to the earth and trampled on them. 11 It magnified itself to be as great as the Prince of the host. It took away from him the regular burnt offering, and the place of his sanctuary was overthrown. 12 Because of transgression, the host will be given over to it along with the regular burnt offering. It will throw truth to the ground, and it will act and prosper. 13 Then I heard a holy one speaking and another holy one said to that particular one who was speaking, “For how long is the vision about the regular burnt offering, the transgression that makes desolate, the giving over of the sanctuary and the host to be trampled on?” 14 He said to me, “For 2300 evenings and mornings. Then the sanctuary will be put right.”
15 When I, Daniel, had seen the vision, I sought to understand it. And behold, standing before me was one having the appearance of a man. 16 I heard the voice of a man between the banks of the Ulai, and he called out and said, “Gabriel, make this man understand the vision.” 17 So he came near where I stood. When he came, I was frightened and fell on my face. But he said to me, “Understand, O son of man, that the vision is for the time of the end.” 18 Now while he was speaking with me, I fell into a deep sleep with my face to the ground. Then he touched me and made me stand on my feet. 19 He said, “Behold, I am going to make known to you what will happen at the latter end of the indignation, for it refers to the appointed time of the end. 20 The ram that you saw with the two horns represents the kings of Media and Persia. 21 The shaggy goat is the king of Greece, and the large horn that is between his eyes is the first king. 22 The horn that was broken and the four that arose in its place represent four kingdoms which will arise from his nation, but not with his power. 23 At the latter end of their rule, when the transgressors have reached their limit, a king of bold face, one who understands riddles, will arise. 24 His power will be great—but not by his own power. He will destroy to an extraordinary degree; he will succeed in what he does. He will destroy mighty men and the holy people. 25 By his cunning he will make deceit prosper under his hand. He will magnify himself in his heart. He will destroy many while they are at ease. He will even rise up against the Prince of princes, and he will be broken, but by no human hand. 26 The vision of the evenings and mornings that has been told is true. But seal up the vision, for it refers to many days in the future.” 27 Then I, Daniel, was overcome and lay sick for days. Then I got up, and went about the business of the king. But I was appalled by the vision, and there was no one to explain it.
