Daniel 8




updv@Daniel:8:1 @ In the third year of the reign of King Belshazzar a vision appeared to me, even to me, Daniel, after that which appeared to me at the first.

updv@Daniel:8:2 @ And I saw in the vision; now it was so, that when I saw, I was in Shushan the palace, which is in the province of Elam; and I saw in the vision, and I was by the river Ulai.

updv@Daniel:8:3 @ Then I lifted up my eyes, and looked, and saw 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.

updv@Daniel:8:4 @ I saw the ram pushing westward, and northward, and southward; and no beasts could stand before him, neither was there any who could deliver out of his hand; but he did according to his will, and magnified himself.

updv@Daniel:8:5 @ And as I was considering, look, a he-goat came from the west over the face of the whole earth, and did not touch the ground: and the goat had a notable horn between his eyes.

updv@Daniel:8:6 @ And he came to the ram that had the two horns, which I saw standing before the river, and ran on him in the fury of his power.

updv@Daniel:8:7 @ And I saw him come close to the ram, and he was moved with anger against him, and struck the ram, and broke his two horns; and there was no power in the ram to stand before him; but he cast him down to the ground, and trampled on him; and there was none who could deliver the ram out of his hand.

updv@Daniel:8:8 @ And the he-goat magnified himself exceedingly: and when he was strong, the great horn was broken; and instead of it there came up four notable [horns] toward the four winds of heaven.

updv@Daniel:8:9 @ And out of one of them came forth a little horn, which waxed exceedingly great, toward the south, and toward the east, and toward the glorious [land].

updv@Daniel:8:10 @ And it waxed great, even to the host of heaven; and some of the host and of the stars it cast down to the ground, and trampled on them.

updv@Daniel:8:11 @ Yes, it magnified itself, even to the prince of the host; and it took away from him the continual [burnt-offering], and the place of his sanctuary was cast down.

updv@Daniel:8:12 @ And the host was given over [to it] together with the continual [burnt-offering] through transgression; and it cast down truth to the ground, and it did [its pleasure] and prospered.

updv@Daniel:8:13 @ Then I heard a holy one speaking; and another holy one said to that certain one who spoke, How long will be the vision [concerning] the continual [burnt-offering], and the transgression that makes desolate, to give both the sanctuary and the host to be trodden under foot?

updv@Daniel:8:14 @ And he said to me, To two thousand and three hundred evenings [and] mornings; then the sanctuary will be cleansed.

updv@Daniel:8:15 @ And it came to pass, when I, even I Daniel, had seen the vision, that I sought to understand it; and, look, there stood before me as the appearance of a [prominent] man.

updv@Daniel:8:16 @ And I heard man's voice between [the banks of] the Ulai, which called, and said, Gabriel, make this man to understand the vision.

updv@Daniel:8:17 @ So he came near where I stood; and when he came, I was frightened, and fell on my face: but he said to me, Understand, O Son of Man; for the vision belongs to the time of the end.

updv@Daniel:8:18 @ Now as he was speaking with me, I fell into a deep sleep with my face toward the ground; but he touched me, and set me upright.

updv@Daniel:8:19 @ And he said, Look, I will make you know what will be in the latter time of the indignation; for it belongs to the appointed time of the end.

updv@Daniel:8:20 @ The ram which you saw, that had the two horns, they are the kings of Media and Persia.

updv@Daniel:8:21 @ The he-goat is the king of Greece: and the great horn that is between his eyes is the first king.

updv@Daniel:8:22 @ And as for that which was broken, in the place of which four stood up, four kingdoms will stand up out of the nation, but not with his power.

updv@Daniel:8:23 @ And in the latter time of their kingdom, when the transgressors have come to the full, a king of fierce countenance, and understanding dark sentences, will stand up.

updv@Daniel:8:24 @ And his power will be mighty, but not by his own power; and he will destroy wonderfully, and will prosper and do [his pleasure]; and he will destroy the mighty ones and the holy people.

updv@Daniel:8:25 @ And through his policy he will cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he will magnify himself in his heart, and in [their] security he will destroy many: he will also stand up against the prince of princes; but he will be broken without hand.

updv@Daniel:8:26 @ And the vision of the evenings and mornings which has been told is true: but you shut up the vision; for it belongs to many days [to come].

updv@Daniel:8:27 @ And I, Daniel, fainted, and was sick certain days; then I rose up, and did the king's business: and I wondered at the vision, but none understood it.
