Daniel 8

8 In the year of three to the reign of King Belshazzar, a vision appeared to me, me, Daniel, after the one having appeared to me at the first. 2 And I saw in the vision, and it was as I saw, that I was in Susa the citadel, which is in Elam the province. And I saw in the vision that I was by the canal of Ulai. 3 And I lifted up my eyes and saw, and behold, a ram standing to the face of the canal. And to it were two horns, and the two horns were high, but the one was higher than the second, and the higher came up afterward. 4 I saw the ram goring westward and northward and southward, and all of the beasts did not stand to its face, and there was none delivering from its hand. And it did according to its will, and it became great.

5 And I, I was observing, and behold, a male of the goats was coming from the west over the face of all of the earth but without touching the earth. And the male goat, a horn of vision was between its eyes. 6 And it came to the ram, the master of two horns, which I had seen standing to the face of the canal, and it ran at it in the heat of its power. 7 And I saw it arriving beside the ram, and it was embittered at it, and it struck the ram and shattered the two of its horns. And the ram was not strong to stand to its face. And it cast it to the earth and trampled it, and none was delivering the ram from its hand. 8 Then the male of the goats became great to much. But when it was mighty, the great horn was broken, and in its place four horns of vision came up toward the four winds of the heavens.

9 And from one of them a little horn came forth, and it became great exceedingly toward the south and toward the east and toward the Beauty. 10 And it became great to the army of the heavens. And it made fall to the earth some of the army and some of the stars, and it trampled them. 11 And it became great to the commander of the army. And the perpetual sacrifice was removed from him, and the place of his sanctuary was cast down. 12 And because of transgression, an army will be given over with the perpetual sacrifice, and it will cast truth to the ground. And it will do and succeed. 13 And I heard a holy one speaking, and a holy one said to the particular one speaking, “Until when is the vision of the perpetual sacrifice and the desolating transgression, the giving of both the sanctuary and the army for trampling?” 14 And he said to me, “Until evening, morning, 2,300. Then the sanctuary will be made right.”

15 And it was when I had seen the vision, I, Daniel, that I sought understanding. And behold, one standing to my face according to the appearance of a man. 16 And I heard the voice of a man between the Ulai, and he called and said, “Gabriel, make this one understand the appearance.” 17 And he came beside my standing. And when he came, I was frightened, and fell on my face. But he said to me, “Understand, son of man, that the vision is for the time of the end.” 18 And when he was speaking with me, I fell deeply asleep with my face to the ground. But he touched me and made me stand on my standing. 19 And he said, “Behold me, making you know what will happen at the end of the indignation, for it is for the appointed time of the end. 20 The ram that you saw, a master of two horns, is the kings of Media and Persia. 21 The male goat is the king of Javan, and the great horn that was between its eyes, it is the first king. 22 And as for the broken one and the four that arose in its place, four kingdoms will stand from that nation, but not with its power. 23 And at the end of their rule, when transgressors are complete, a king will stand, strong of face and understanding riddles. 24 And his power will be mighty, but not by his power. And being marvelous, he will destroy, and he will succeed and do. And he will destroy the mighty and the people of the holy ones. 25 And by his cunning, he will also make deceit succeed under his hand. And in his heart, he will make himself great, and he will destroy many at ease. And he will stand against the Prince of princes, but he will be broken by no hand. 26 And the appearance of the evening and the morning that was told, it is true. But you, close up the vision, for it is for many days.” 27 Then I, Daniel, was finished, and I was sickened for days. Then I arose and did the business of the king. But I was desolate at the vision and not understanding.
