When I ,
Daniel ,
had seen the vision ,
I sought to understand it ;
and behold ,
standing before me was one who looked like a man .
nasb @
Daniel:7:16 @
And I heard the voice of a man between the banks of Ulai ,
and he called out and said , "
Gabriel ,
give this man an understanding of the vision ."

Daniel:7:17 @
So he came near to where I was standing ,
and when he came I was frightened and fell on my face ;
but he said to me , "
Son of man ,
understand that the vision pertains to the time of the end ."

Now while he was talking with me ,
I sank into a deep sleep with my face to the ground ;
but he touched me and made me stand upright .

Daniel:7:19 @
He said , "
Behold ,
I am going to let you know what will occur at the final period of the indignation ,
for it pertains to the appointed time of the end .

Daniel:7:20 " @
The ram which you saw with the two horns represents the kings of Media and Persia .
nasb @
Daniel:7:21 " @
The shaggy goat represents the kingdom of Greece ,
and the large horn that is between his eyes is the first king .
nasb @
Daniel:7:22 " @
The broken horn and the four horns that arose in its place represent four kingdoms which will arise from his nation ,
although not with his power .
nasb @
Daniel:7:23 " @
In the latter period of their rule ,
When the transgressors have run their course ,
A king will arise ,
Insolent and skilled in intrigue .
nasb @
Daniel:7:24 " @
His power will be mighty ,
but not by his own power ,
And he will destroy to an extraordinary degree And prosper and perform his will ;
He will destroy mighty men and the holy people .
nasb @
Daniel:7:25 " @
And through his shrewdness He will cause deceit to succeed by his influence ;
And he will magnify himself in his heart ,
And he will destroy many while they are at ease .
He will even oppose the Prince of princes ,
But he will be broken without human agency .

Daniel:7:26 " @
The vision of the evenings and mornings Which has been told is true ;
But keep the vision secret ,
For it pertains to many days in the future ."

Then I ,
Daniel ,
was exhausted and sick for days .
Then I got up again and carried on the king '
s business ;
but I was astounded at the vision ,
and there was none to explain it .
