Daniel 8:1-7

1In the third yearH8141 of the reignH4438 of kingH4428 Belshazzar a visionH2377 appearedH7200 unto me, even unto me, DanielH1840, after that which appearedH7200 unto me at the firstH8462. 2And I sawH7200 in the visionH2377; now it wasH1961 so, that when I sawH7200, I wasH1961 in Shushan the palace, which is in the provinceH4082 of ElamH5867; and I sawH7200 in the visionH2377, and I wasH1961 by the river UlaiH195. 3Then I liftedH5375 up mine eyesH5869, and sawH7200, and, behold, there stoodH5975 before the river a ramH352 which had two hornsH7161: and the two hornsH7161 were highH1364; but oneH259 was higherH1364 than the other, and the higherH1364 cameH5927 up lastH314. 4I sawH7200 the ramH352 pushing westward, and northward, and southward; and no beasts could standH5975 before him, neither was there any that could deliverH5337 out of his handH3027; but he did according to his will, and magnifiedH1431 himself.

5And as I was considering, behold, a he-goat cameH935 from the westH4628 over the faceH6440 of the whole earthH776, and touchedH5060 not the groundH776: and the goatH5795 had a notable hornH7161 between his eyesH5869. 6And he cameH935 to the ramH352 that had the two hornsH7161, which I sawH7200 standingH5975 before the river, and ranH7323 upon him in the fury of his powerH3581. 7And I sawH7200 him come close unto the ramH352, and he wasH1961 moved with anger against him, and smote the ramH352, and brake his twoH8147 hornsH7161; and there wasH1961 no power in the ramH352 to standH5975 before him; but he castH7993 him downH5221 to the groundH776, and trampledH7429 upon him; and there wasH1961 none that could deliverH5337 the ramH352 out of his handH3027.
