Daniel 8:21-25

21The shaggy goat represents the king of Greece, and the large horn between his eyes represents the first king.

22The four horns that took the place of the broken horn represent four kingdoms. They will rise from that nation, but without its power.

23Near the end of their kingdoms, when the rebels have reached the full measure of their sin, a ruthless king, skilled in intrigue, will come to the throne.

24His power will be great, but it will not be his own. He will cause outrageous destruction and succeed in whatever he does. He will destroy the powerful along with the holy people.

25He will cause deceit to prosper through his cunning and by his influence, and in his own mind he will exalt himself. He will destroy many in a time of peace; he will even stand against the Prince of princes. Yet he will be broken — not by human hands.
