dby@Isaiah:8:6 @ Forasmuch as this people refuseth the waters of Shiloah which flow softly, and rejoiceth in Rezin and in the son of Remaliah,

dby@Isaiah:8:7 @ therefore behold, the Lord will bring up upon them the waters of the river, strong and many, the king of Assyria and all his glory; and he shall mount up over all his channels, and go over all his banks:

dby@Isaiah:8:8 @ and he shall pass through Judah; he shall overflow it and go further, he shall reach even to the neck; and the stretching out of his wings shall fill the breadth of thy land, O Immanuel!

dby@Isaiah:8:12 @ Ye shall not say, Conspiracy, of everything of which this people saith, Conspiracy; and fear ye not their fear, and be not in dread.

dby@Isaiah:8:13 @ Jehovah of hosts, him shall ye sanctify; and let him be your fear, and let him be your dread.

dby@Isaiah:8:14 @ And he will be for a sanctuary; and for a stone of stumbling, and for a rock of offence to both the houses of Israel, for a gin and for a snare to the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

dby@Isaiah:8:15 @ And many among them shall stumble, and fall, and be broken, and snared, and taken.

dby@Isaiah:8:19 @ And when they shall say unto you, Seek unto the necromancers and unto the soothsayers, who chirp and who mutter, [say,] Shall not a people seek unto their God? [Will they go] for the living unto the dead?

dby@Isaiah:8:20 @ To the law and the testimony! If they speak not according to this word, for them there is no daybreak.

dby@Isaiah:8:21 @ And they shall pass through it, hard pressed and hungry; and it shall come to pass when they are hungry, they will fret themselves, and curse their king and their God, and will gaze upward:

dby@Isaiah:8:22 @ and they will look to the earth; and behold, trouble and darkness, gloom of anguish; and they shall be driven into thick darkness.

dby@Isaiah:9:1 @ Nevertheless the darkness shall not be as when the distress was in the [land], at the time he at first lightly, and afterwards heavily, visited the land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, -- the way of the sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the nations:

dby@Isaiah:9:6 @ For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder; and his name is called Wonderful, Counsellor, Mighty �God, Father of Eternity, Prince of Peace.

dby@Isaiah:9:7 @ Of the increase of his government and of peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David and over his kingdom, to establish it, and to uphold it with judgment and with righteousness, from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of Jehovah of hosts will perform this.

dby@Isaiah:9:11 @ And Jehovah will set up the adversaries of Rezin against him, and arm his enemies,

dby@Isaiah:9:12 @ the Syrians on the east, and the Philistines on the west; and they shall devour Israel with open mouth. For all this his anger is not turned away, and his hand is stretched out still.

dby@Isaiah:9:15 @ the ancient and honourable, he is the head; and the prophet that teacheth lies, he is the tail.

dby@Isaiah:9:16 @ For the guides of this people mislead [them]; and they that are guided by them are swallowed up.

dby@Isaiah:9:17 @ Therefore the Lord will not rejoice in their young men, neither will he have mercy on their fatherless and on their widows; for every one is a hypocrite and an evildoer, and every mouth speaketh folly.

dby@Isaiah:10:2 @ to turn away the poor from judgment, and to take away the right from the afflicted of my people; that widows may be their prey, and that they may rob the fatherless!

dby@Daniel:2:11 @ For the thing that the king demandeth is extraordinary, and there is none other that can shew it before the king, except the gods, whose dwelling is not with flesh.

dby@Daniel:2:12 @ For this cause the king was irritated and very wroth, and commanded to destroy all the wise men of Babylon.

dby@Daniel:2:13 @ And the decree went forth that the wise men were to be slain; and they sought Daniel and his companions to slay them.

dby@Daniel:2:14 @ Then Daniel answered with counsel and prudence to Arioch the chief of the king's bodyguard, who had gone forth to slay the wise men of Babylon:

dby@Daniel:2:15 @ he answered and said to Arioch the king's captain, Why is the decree so rigorous from the king? Then Arioch made the thing known to Daniel.

dby@Daniel:2:16 @ And Daniel went in, and requested of the king that he would give him time, that he might shew the king the interpretation.

dby@Daniel:2:17 @ Then Daniel went to his house, and made the thing known to Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah, his companions;

dby@Daniel:2:18 @ that they would desire mercies of the God of the heavens concerning this secret; that Daniel and his companions should not perish with the rest of the wise men of Babylon.

dby@Daniel:2:20 @ Daniel answered and said, Blessed be the name of God for ever and ever; For wisdom and might are his.

dby@Daniel:2:21 @ And it is he that changeth times and seasons; He deposeth kings, and setteth up kings; He giveth wisdom to the wise, And knowledge to them that know understanding.

dby@Daniel:2:22 @ It is he that revealeth the deep and secret things; He knoweth what is in the darkness, and the light dwelleth with him.

dby@Daniel:2:23 @ I thank thee, and I praise thee, O God of my fathers, Who hast given me wisdom and might, And hast made known unto me already what we desired of thee; For thou hast made known unto us the king's matter.

dby@Daniel:2:24 @ Therefore Daniel went in unto Arioch, whom the king had appointed to destroy the wise men of Babylon; he went and said thus unto him: Destroy not the wise men of Babylon; bring me in before the king, and I will shew unto the king the interpretation.

dby@Daniel:2:25 @ Then Arioch brought in Daniel before the king in haste, and said thus unto him: I have found a man of the sons of the captivity of Judah that will make known unto the king the interpretation.

dby@Daniel:2:26 @ The king answered and said unto Daniel, whose name was Belteshazzar, Art thou able to make known unto me the dream that I have seen, and its interpretation?

dby@Daniel:2:27 @ Daniel answered in the presence of the king and said, The secret that the king hath demanded cannot the wise men, the magicians, the scribes, the astrologers, shew unto the king;

dby@Daniel:2:28 @ but there is a God in the heavens, who revealeth secrets, and maketh known to king Nebuchadnezzar what shall be at the end of days. Thy dream, and the visions of thy head upon thy bed are these:

dby@Daniel:2:29 @ -- as for thee, O king, thy thoughts arose upon thy bed, what should come to pass hereafter; and he that revealeth secrets hath made known to thee what shall come to pass.

dby@Daniel:2:30 @ And as for me, this secret is revealed to me, not by [any] wisdom that I have more than any living, but to the intent that the interpretation should be made known to the king, and that thou mightest know the thoughts of thy heart.

dby@Daniel:2:31 @ Thou, O king, sawest, and behold, a great image. This image was mighty and its brightness excellent; it stood before thee, and its appearance was terrible.

dby@Daniel:2:32 @ This image's head was of fine gold, its breast and its arms of silver, its belly and its thighs of brass,

dby@Daniel:2:33 @ its legs of iron, its feet part of iron and part of clay.

dby@Daniel:2:34 @ Thou sawest till a stone was cut out without hands; and it smote the image upon its feet of iron and clay, and broke them to pieces.

dby@Daniel:2:35 @ Then was the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold broken in pieces together, and they became like the chaff of the summer threshing-floors; and the wind carried them away, and no place was found for them. And the stone that smote the image became a great mountain, and filled the whole earth.

dby@Daniel:2:36 @ This is the dream; and we will tell the interpretation of it before the king.

dby@Daniel:2:37 @ Thou, O king, art a king of kings, unto whom the God of the heavens hath given the kingdom, the power, and the strength, and the glory;

dby@Daniel:2:38 @ and wheresoever the children of men, the beasts of the field, and the fowl of the heavens dwell, he hath given them into thy hand, and hath made thee ruler over them all: thou art this head of gold.

dby@Daniel:2:39 @ And after thee shall arise another kingdom inferior to thee; then another third kingdom of brass, which shall bear rule over all the earth.

dby@Daniel:2:40 @ And the fourth kingdom shall be strong as iron: forasmuch as iron breaketh in pieces and subdueth everything, and as iron that breaketh all these, so shall it break in pieces and bruise.

dby@Daniel:2:41 @ And whereas thou sawest the feet and toes, part of potter's clay, and part of iron, the kingdom shall be divided; but there shall be in it of the strength of the iron, forasmuch as thou sawest the iron mixed with miry clay.

dby@Daniel:2:42 @ And [as] the toes of the feet were part of iron and part of clay, the kingdom shall be partly strong and partly fragile.

dby@Daniel:2:43 @ And whereas thou sawest the iron mixed with miry clay, they shall mingle themselves with the seed of men; but they shall not cleave one to another, even as iron doth not mingle with clay.

dby@Daniel:2:44 @ And in the days of these kings shall the God of the heavens set up a kingdom which shall never be destroyed; and the sovereignty thereof shall not be left to another people: it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, but itself shall stand for ever.

dby@Daniel:2:45 @ Forasmuch as thou sawest that a stone was cut out of the mountain without hands, and that it broke in pieces the iron, the brass, the clay, the silver, and the gold, -- the great God hath made known to the king what shall come to pass hereafter. And the dream is certain, and the interpretation of it sure.

dby@Daniel:2:46 @ Then king Nebuchadnezzar fell on his face and worshipped Daniel, and commanded that they should offer an oblation and sweet odours unto him.

dby@Daniel:2:47 @ The king answered Daniel and said, Of a truth it is that your God is the God of gods, and the Lord of kings, and a revealer of secrets, because thou wast able to reveal this secret.

dby@Daniel:2:48 @ Then the king made Daniel great, and gave him many great gifts, and made him ruler over the whole province of Babylon, and chief of the governors over all the wise men of Babylon.

dby@Daniel:2:49 @ And Daniel requested of the king, and he appointed Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego over the administration of the province of Babylon. And Daniel was in the gate of the king.

dby@Daniel:3:1 @ Nebuchadnezzar the king made an image of gold, whose height was sixty cubits, [and] its breadth six cubits; he set it up in the plain of Dura, in the province of Babylon.

dby@Daniel:3:2 @ And Nebuchadnezzar the king sent to gather together the satraps, the prefects, and the governors, the judges, the treasurers, the counsellors, the justices, and all the rulers of the provinces, to come to the dedication of the image that Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up.

dby@Daniel:3:3 @ Then the satraps, the prefects, and the governors, the judges, the treasurers, the counsellors, the justices, and all the rulers of the provinces, were gathered together unto the dedication of the image that Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up; and they stood before the image that Nebuchadnezzar had set up.

dby@Daniel:3:4 @ And the herald cried aloud, To you it is commanded, [O] peoples, nations, and languages,

dby@Daniel:3:5 @ that at what time ye hear the sound of the cornet, pipe, lute, sambuca, psaltery, bagpipe, and all kinds of music, ye fall down and worship the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king hath set up;

dby@Daniel:3:6 @ and whosoever doth not fall down and worship shall that same hour be cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace.

dby@Daniel:3:7 @ Therefore at that time when all the peoples heard the sound of the cornet, pipe, lute, sambuca, psaltery, and all kinds of music, all the peoples, the nations, and the languages fell down [and] worshipped the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up.

dby@Daniel:3:8 @ Whereupon at that time certain Chaldeans came near, and accused the Jews.

dby@Daniel:3:9 @ They spoke and said to the king Nebuchadnezzar, O king, live for ever!

dby@Daniel:3:10 @ Thou, O king, hast made a decree, that every man that shall hear the sound of the cornet, pipe, lute, sambuca, psaltery, and bagpipe, and all kinds of music, shall fall down and worship the golden image;

dby@Daniel:3:11 @ and [that] whosoever doth not fall down and worship, shall be cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace.

dby@Daniel:3:12 @ There are certain Jews whom thou hast appointed over the administration of the province of Babylon: Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego: these men, O king, regard thee not; they serve not thy gods, nor worship the golden image that thou hast set up.

dby@Daniel:3:13 @ Then Nebuchadnezzar in rage and fury commanded to bring Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego. Then were these men brought before the king.

dby@Daniel:3:14 @ Nebuchadnezzar spoke and said unto them, Is it of purpose, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, that ye serve not my god, nor worship the golden image that I have set up?

dby@Daniel:3:15 @ Now if ye be ready at the time that ye hear the sound of the cornet, pipe, lute, sambuca, psaltery, and bagpipe, and all kinds of music, to fall down and worship the image that I have made, [well]: but if ye worship not, ye shall be cast that same hour into the midst of a burning fiery furnace: and who is the God that shall deliver you out of my hands?

dby@Daniel:3:16 @ Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego answered and said to the king, O Nebuchadnezzar, we have no need to answer thee in this matter.

dby@Daniel:3:17 @ If it be [so], our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and he will deliver [us] out of thy hand, O king.

dby@Daniel:3:19 @ Then was Nebuchadnezzar full of fury, and the form of his visage was changed against Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego. He spoke, and commanded that they should heat the furnace seven times more than it was wont to be heated.

dby@Daniel:3:20 @ And he commanded the most mighty men that were in his army to bind Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, and cast them into the burning fiery furnace.

dby@Daniel:3:21 @ Then these men were bound in their hosen, their tunics, and their cloaks, and their garments, and were cast into the midst of the burning fiery furnace.

dby@Daniel:3:22 @ Forasmuch as the king's commandment was rigorous, and the furnace exceeding hot, the flame of the fire slew those men that had taken up Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego.

dby@Daniel:3:23 @ And these three men, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, fell down bound into the midst of the burning fiery furnace.

dby@Daniel:3:24 @ Then Nebuchadnezzar the king was astonied, and rose up in haste; he spoke and said unto his counsellors, Did not we cast three men bound into the midst of the fire? They answered and said to the king, True, O king.

dby@Daniel:3:25 @ He answered and said, Lo, I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire, and they have no hurt; and the appearance of the fourth is like a son of God.

dby@Daniel:3:26 @ Then Nebuchadnezzar came near to the opening of the burning fiery furnace; he spoke and said, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, ye servants of the Most High God, come forth, and come [hither]. Then Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego came forth from the midst of the fire.

dby@Daniel:3:27 @ And the satraps, the prefects, and the governors, and the king's counsellors, being gathered together, saw these men, upon whose bodies the fire had had no power, nor was the hair of their head singed, neither were their hosen changed, nor had the smell of fire passed on them.

dby@Daniel:3:28 @ Nebuchadnezzar spoke and said, Blessed be the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, who hath sent his angel, and delivered his servants who trusted in him, and who changed the king's word, and yielded their bodies, that they might not serve nor worship any god, except their own God!

dby@Daniel:3:29 @ Therefore I make a decree, that in every people, nation, and language, he who shall speak anything amiss against the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, shall be cut in pieces, and his house shall be made a dunghill: because there is no other God that is able to deliver after this sort.

dby@Daniel:3:30 @ Then the king promoted Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego in the province of Babylon.

dby@Daniel:4:1 @ Nebuchadnezzar the king unto all the peoples, nations, and languages, that dwell in all the earth: Peace be multiplied unto you.

dby@Daniel:4:2 @ It hath seemed good unto me to declare the signs and wonders that the Most High God hath wrought toward me.

dby@Daniel:4:3 @ How great are his signs! and how mighty are his wonders! His kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and his dominion is from generation to generation.

dby@Daniel:4:4 @ I Nebuchadnezzar was at rest in my house, and flourishing in my palace.

dby@Daniel:4:5 @ I saw a dream which made me afraid, and the thoughts upon my bed and the visions of my head troubled me.

dby@Daniel:4:6 @ And I made a decree to bring in all the wise men of Babylon before me, that they might make known unto me the interpretation of the dream.

dby@Daniel:4:7 @ Then came in the scribes, the magicians, the Chaldeans, and the astrologers; and I told the dream before them; but they did not make known unto me the interpretation of it.

dby@Daniel:4:8 @ But at the last Daniel came in before me, whose name is Belteshazzar, according to the name of my god, and in whom is the spirit of the holy gods; and before him I told the dream:

dby@Daniel:4:9 @ O Belteshazzar, master of the scribes, because I know that the spirit of the holy gods is in thee, and no secret is too hard for thee, tell me the visions of my dream which I have seen, and the interpretation of it.

dby@Daniel:4:10 @ Thus were the visions of my head upon my bed: I saw, and behold a tree in the midst of the earth, and its height was great.

dby@Daniel:4:11 @ The tree grew, and was strong, and its height reached unto the heavens, and the sight thereof to the end of all the earth.

dby@Daniel:4:12 @ Its leaves were beautiful, and its fruit abundant, and in it was food for all: the beasts of the field found shade under it, and the birds of the heavens dwelt in its branches, and all flesh was fed from it.

dby@Daniel:4:13 @ I saw in the visions of my head upon my bed, and behold, a watcher and a holy one came down from the heavens;

dby@Daniel:4:14 @ he cried aloud, and said thus: Hew down the tree, and cut off its branches, shake off its leaves, and scatter its fruit; let the beasts get away from under it, and the birds from its branches.

dby@Daniel:4:15 @ Nevertheless leave the stump of its roots in the earth, even with a band of iron and brass, in the tender grass of the field; and let it be bathed with the dew of heaven, and let his portion be with the beasts in the grass of the earth.

dby@Daniel:4:16 @ Let his heart be changed from man's, and let a beast's heart be given unto him; and let seven times pass over him.

dby@Daniel:4:17 @ This sentence is by the decree of the watchers, and the decision by the word of the holy ones: that the living may know that the Most High ruleth over the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will, and setteth up over it the basest of men.

dby@Daniel:4:18 @ This dream I, king Nebuchadnezzar, have seen; and thou, Belteshazzar, tell the interpretation, forasmuch as all the wise men of my kingdom are not able to make known unto me the interpretation; but thou art able, for the spirit of the holy gods is in thee.

dby@Daniel:4:19 @ Then Daniel, whose name is Belteshazzar, was astonied for one hour, and his thoughts troubled him. The king spoke and said, Belteshazzar, let not the dream, nor its interpretation, trouble thee. Belteshazzar answered and said, My lord, the dream be to them that hate thee, and its interpretation to thine enemies!

dby@Daniel:4:20 @ The tree that thou sawest, which grew and was strong, whose height reached unto the heavens, and the sight of it to all the earth;

dby@Daniel:4:21 @ whose leaves were beautiful, and its fruit abundant, and in it was food for all; under which the beasts of the field dwelt, and in whose branches the birds of the heavens had their habitation:

dby@Daniel:4:22 @ it is thou, O king, who art grown and become strong; for thy greatness is grown, and reacheth unto the heavens, and thy dominion to the end of the earth.

dby@Daniel:4:23 @ And whereas the king saw a watcher and a holy one coming down from the heavens, and saying, Hew the tree down, and destroy it; nevertheless leave the stump of its roots in the earth, even with a band of iron and brass, in the tender grass of the field; and let it be bathed with the dew of heaven, and let his portion be with the beasts of the field, till seven times pass over him:

dby@Daniel:4:24 @ this is the interpretation, O king, and it is the decree of the Most High, which cometh upon my lord the king:

dby@Daniel:4:25 @ They shall drive thee from men, and thy dwelling shall be with the beasts of the field, and they shall make thee to eat grass as oxen, and thou shalt be bathed with the dew of heaven; and seven times shall pass over thee, till thou know that the Most High ruleth over the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will.

dby@Daniel:4:26 @ And whereas it was commanded to leave the stump of the roots of the tree; thy kingdom shall remain unto thee, after that thou shalt know that the heavens do rule.

dby@Daniel:4:27 @ Therefore, O king, let my counsel be acceptable unto thee, and break off thy sins by righteousness, and thine iniquities by shewing mercy to the poor; if it may be a lengthening of thy tranquillity.

dby@Daniel:4:30 @ the king spoke and said, Is not this great Babylon, that I have built for the house of the kingdom by the might of my power and for the glory of my majesty?

dby@Daniel:4:32 @ and they shall drive thee from men, and thy dwelling shall be with the beasts of the field; they shall make thee to eat grass as oxen, and seven times shall pass over thee, until thou know that the Most High ruleth over the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will.

dby@Daniel:4:33 @ The same hour was the word fulfilled upon Nebuchadnezzar; and he was driven from men, and ate grass as oxen; and his body was bathed with the dew of heaven, till his hair grew like eagles' [feathers], and his nails like birds' [claws].

dby@Daniel:4:34 @ And at the end of the days I Nebuchadnezzar lifted up mine eyes unto the heavens, and mine understanding returned unto me, and I blessed the Most High, and I praised and honoured him that liveth for ever, whose dominion is an everlasting dominion, and his kingdom is from generation to generation.

dby@Daniel:4:35 @ And all the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing; and he doeth according to his will in the army of the heavens, and among the inhabitants of the earth; and none can stay his hand, or say unto him, What doest thou?

dby@Daniel:4:36 @ At the same time mine understanding returned unto me; and for the glory of my kingdom, my majesty and brightness returned unto me; and my counsellors and my nobles sought me; and I was established in my kingdom, and excellent greatness was added unto me.

dby@Daniel:4:37 @ Now I Nebuchadnezzar praise and extol and honour the King of the heavens, all whose works are truth, and his paths judgment: and those that walk in pride he is able to abase.

dby@Daniel:5:1 @ Belshazzar the king made a great feast to a thousand of his nobles, and drank wine before the thousand.

dby@Daniel:5:2 @ Belshazzar, while he tasted the wine, commanded to bring the golden and silver vessels that Nebuchadnezzar his father had taken out of the temple which was in Jerusalem; that the king and his nobles, his wives and his concubines, might drink in them.

dby@Daniel:5:3 @ Then they brought the golden vessels that were taken out of the temple of the house of God which was at Jerusalem; and the king and his nobles, his wives and his concubines, drank in them.

dby@Daniel:5:4 @ They drank wine, and praised the gods of gold and of silver, of brass, of iron, of wood, and of stone.

dby@Daniel:5:5 @ In the same hour came forth fingers of a man's hand, and wrote over against the candlestick upon the plaster of the wall of the king's palace: and the king saw the part of the hand that wrote.

dby@Daniel:5:6 @ Then the king's countenance was changed, and his thoughts troubled him, and the joints of his loins were loosed, and his knees smote one against another.

dby@Daniel:5:7 @ The king cried aloud to bring in the magicians, the Chaldeans, and the astrologers. The king spoke and said to the wise men of Babylon, Whosoever shall read this writing, and shew me the interpretation thereof, shall be clothed with purple, and have a chain of gold about his neck, and shall be the third ruler in the kingdom.

dby@Daniel:6:20 @ And when he came near unto the den, he cried with a mournful voice unto Daniel: the king spoke and said unto Daniel, O Daniel, servant of the living God, hath thy God whom thou servest continually been able to save thee from the lions?

dby@Daniel:6:22 @ My God hath sent his angel, and hath shut the lions' mouths, that they have not hurt me; forasmuch as before him innocence was found in me; and also before thee, O king, have I done no hurt.

dby@Daniel:6:23 @ Thereupon was the king exceeding glad, and commanded that they should take Daniel up out of the den. So Daniel was taken up out of the den, and no manner of hurt was found upon him, because he believed in his God.

dby@Daniel:6:24 @ And the king commanded, and they brought those men who had accused Daniel, and cast them into the den of lions, them, their children, and their wives; and the lions had the mastery of them, and broke all their bones in pieces ere they came to the bottom of the den.

dby@Daniel:6:26 @ I make a decree, That in every dominion of my kingdom men tremble and fear before the God of Daniel; for he is the living God, and steadfast for ever, and his kingdom [that] which shall not be destroyed, and his dominion shall be even unto the end.

dby@Daniel:7:1 @ In the first year of Belshazzar king of Babylon, Daniel saw a dream and visions of his head upon his bed: then he wrote the dream; he told the sum of the matters.

dby@Daniel:7:2 @ Daniel spoke and said, I saw in my vision by night, and behold, the four winds of the heavens broke forth upon the great sea.

dby@Daniel:7:3 @ And four great beasts came up from the sea, different one from another.

dby@Daniel:7:4 @ The first was like a lion, and had eagle's wings: I beheld till its wings were plucked; and it was lifted up from the earth, and made to stand upon two feet as a man, and a man's heart was given to it.

dby@Daniel:7:5 @ And behold, another beast, a second, like unto a bear, and it raised up itself on one side; and [it had] three ribs in its mouth between its teeth; and they said thus unto it: Arise, devour much flesh.

dby@Daniel:7:6 @ After this I saw, and behold, another, like a leopard, and it had four wings of a bird upon its back; and the beast had four heads; and dominion was given to it.

dby@Daniel:7:7 @ After this I saw in the night visions, and behold, a fourth beast, dreadful and terrible, and exceeding strong; and it had great iron teeth: it devoured and broke in pieces, and stamped the rest with its feet; and it was different from all the beasts that were before it; and it had ten horns.

dby@Daniel:7:8 @ I considered the horns, and behold, there came up among them another, a little horn, before which three of the first horns were plucked up by the roots; and behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of a man, and a mouth speaking great things.

dby@Daniel:7:9 @ I beheld till thrones were set, and the Ancient of days did sit: his raiment was white as snow, and the hair of his head like pure wool; his throne was flames of fire, [and] its wheels burning fire.

dby@Daniel:7:10 @ A stream of fire issued and came forth from before him; thousand thousands ministered unto him, and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him: the judgment was set, and the books were opened.

dby@Daniel:7:11 @ I beheld therefore, because of the voice of the great words that the horn spoke; I beheld till the beast was slain, and its body destroyed, and it was given up to be burned with fire.

dby@Daniel:7:12 @ As for the rest of the beasts, their dominion was taken away; but their lives were prolonged for a season and a time.

dby@Daniel:7:13 @ I saw in the night visions, and behold, there came with the clouds of heaven [one] like a son of man, and he came up even to the Ancient of days, and they brought him near before him.

dby@Daniel:7:14 @ And there was given him dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, that all peoples, nations, and languages should serve him: his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom [that] which shall not be destroyed.

dby@Daniel:7:15 @ As for me Daniel, my spirit was grieved in the midst of my body, and the visions of my head troubled me.

dby@Daniel:7:16 @ I came near unto one of them that stood by, and asked him the certainty of all this. And he told me, and made me know the interpretation of the things:

dby@Daniel:7:18 @ But the saints of the most high [places] shall receive the kingdom, and they shall possess the kingdom for ever, even to the ages of ages.

dby@Daniel:7:19 @ Then I desired to know the certainty concerning the fourth beast, which was different from them all, exceeding dreadful, whose teeth were of iron, and its nails of brass; which devoured, broke in pieces, and stamped the rest with its feet;

dby@Daniel:7:20 @ and concerning the ten horns that were in its head, and the other that came up, and before which three fell: even that horn that had eyes, and a mouth speaking great things, and whose look was more imposing than its fellows.

dby@Daniel:7:21 @ I beheld, and that horn made war with the saints, and prevailed over them;

dby@Daniel:7:22 @ until the Ancient of days came, and judgment was given to the saints of the most high [places]; and the appointed time arrived, and the saints possessed the kingdom.

dby@Daniel:7:23 @ He said thus: The fourth beast shall be a fourth kingdom upon the earth, which shall be different from all the kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces.

dby@Daniel:7:24 @ And as to the ten horns, out of this kingdom shall arise ten kings; and another shall arise after them; and he shall be different from the former, and he shall subdue three kings.

dby@Daniel:7:25 @ And he shall speak words against the Most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most high [places], and think to change seasons and the law; and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and a half time.

dby@Daniel:7:26 @ And the judgment shall sit, and they shall take away his dominion, to consume and to destroy it unto the end.

dby@Daniel:7:27 @ But the kingdom and the dominion, and the greatness of the kingdoms under the whole heavens, shall be given to the people of the saints of the most high [places]. His kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and all dominions shall serve and obey him.

dby@Daniel:7:28 @ So far is the end of the matter. As for me Daniel, my thoughts much troubled me, and my countenance was changed in me; but I kept the matter in my heart.

dby@Daniel:8:2 @ And I saw in the vision; and it came to pass, when I saw, that I was in the fortress of Shushan, which is in the province of Elam. And I saw in the vision, and I was by the river Ulai.

dby@Daniel:8:3 @ And I lifted up mine eyes and saw, and behold, there stood before the river a ram which had two horns; and the two horns were high; and one was higher than the other, and the higher came up last.

dby@Daniel:8:4 @ I saw the ram pushing westward, and northward, and southward, and no beast could stand before him, neither was there any that could deliver out of his hand; and he did according to his will, and became great.

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

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

dby@Daniel:8:7 @ And I saw him come close to the ram, and he was enraged with him, and smote the ram, and broke his two horns; and there was no power in the ram to stand before him; and he cast him down to the ground, and trampled upon him; and there was none that could deliver the ram out of his hand.

dby@Daniel:8:8 @ And the he-goat became exceeding great; but when he was become strong, the great horn was broken; and in its stead came up four notable ones toward the four winds of the heavens.

dby@Daniel:8:9 @ And out of one of them came forth a little horn, which became exceeding great, toward the south, and toward the east, and toward the beauty [of the earth].

dby@Daniel:8:10 @ And it became great, even to the host of heaven; and it cast down [some] of the host and of the stars to the ground, and trampled upon them.

dby@Daniel:8:11 @ (And he magnified [himself] even to the prince of the host, and from him the continual [sacrifice] was taken away, and the place of his sanctuary was cast down.

dby@Daniel:8:12 @ And a time of trial was appointed unto the continual [sacrifice] by reason of transgression.) And it cast down the truth to the ground; and it practised and prospered.

dby@Daniel:8:13 @ And I heard one saint speaking, and another saint said unto that one who spoke, How long shall be the vision of the continual [sacrifice] and of the transgression that maketh desolate, to give both the sanctuary and the host to be trodden down under foot?

dby@Daniel:8:14 @ And he said unto me, Until two thousand and three hundred evenings [and] mornings: then shall the sanctuary be vindicated.

dby@Daniel:8:15 @ And it came to pass, when I Daniel had seen the vision, I sought for the understanding of it, and behold, there stood before me as the appearance of a man.

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

dby@Daniel:8:17 @ And he came near where I stood; and when he came, I was afraid, and fell on my face; and he said unto me, Understand, son of man; for the vision is for the time of the end.

dby@Daniel:8:18 @ Now, as he was speaking with me, I was in a deep stupor, with my face toward the ground. And he touched me, and set me up where I had stood.

dby@Daniel:8:19 @ And he said, Behold, I will make thee know what shall be at the end of the indignation: for at the set time the end shall be.

dby@Daniel:8:20 @ The ram that thou sawest having the two horns: they are the kings of Media and Persia.

dby@Daniel:8:21 @ And the rough goat is the king of Greece; and the great horn that was between his eyes is the first king.

dby@Daniel:8:22 @ Now that being broken, whereas four stood up in its stead, four kingdoms shall stand up out of the nation, but not with his power.

dby@Daniel:8:24 @ And his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power; and he shall destroy marvellously, and shall prosper, and shall practise, and shall destroy the mighty ones, and the people of the saints.

dby@Daniel:8:25 @ And through his cunning shall he cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he will magnify [himself] in his heart, and by prosperity will corrupt many; and he will stand up against the Prince of princes: but he shall be broken without hand.

dby@Daniel:8:26 @ And the vision of the evening and the morning which hath been told is true; but close thou up the vision, for it is for many days [to come].

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

dby@Daniel:9:8 @ O Lord, unto us is confusion of face, to our kings, to our princes, and to our fathers, because we have sinned against thee.

dby@Daniel:9:9 @ With the Lord our God are mercies and pardons, for we have rebelled against him;

dby@Daniel:9:10 @ and we have not hearkened unto the voice of Jehovah our God, to walk in his laws, which he set before us through his servants the prophets.

dby@Daniel:9:11 @ And all Israel have transgressed thy law, even turning aside so as not to listen unto thy voice. And the curse hath been poured out upon us, and the oath that is written in the law of Moses the servant of God: for we have sinned against him.

dby@Daniel:9:12 @ And he hath performed his words, which he spoke against us, and against our judges that judged us, by bringing upon us a great evil; so that there hath not been done under the whole heaven as hath been done upon Jerusalem.

dby@Daniel:9:13 @ As it is written in the law of Moses, all this evil is come upon us; yet we besought not Jehovah our God, that we might turn from our iniquities, and understand thy truth.

dby@Daniel:10:10 @ And behold, a hand touched me, which set me upon my knees and the palms of my hands.

dby@Daniel:10:11 @ And he said unto me, O Daniel, man greatly beloved, understand the words which I speak unto thee, and stand upright; for unto thee am I now sent. And as he spoke this word unto me, I stood trembling.

dby@Daniel:10:12 @ And he said unto me, Fear not, Daniel; for from the first day that thou didst set thy heart to understand, and to humble thyself before thy God, thy words were heard, and I am come because of thy words.

dby@Daniel:10:13 @ But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me one and twenty days; and behold, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me; and I remained there with the kings of Persia.
