Daniel 8:14-26
14And he saidH559 unto me, Until twoH3967 thousandH505 and threeH7969 hundredH3967 eveningsH6153 [and] morningsH1242: then shall the sanctuaryH6944 be vindicatedH6663.
15And it came to pass, when I DanielH1840 had seenH7200 the visionH2377, I soughtH1245 for the understandingH998 of it, and behold, there stoodH5975 before me as the appearanceH4758 of a manH1397.
16And I heardH8085 a man's voiceH6963 between [the banks of] the UlaiH195; and he calledH7121 and saidH559, GabrielH1403, makeH8085 this [manH120] to understandH995 the visionH4758.
17And he cameH935 near where I stoodH5975; and when he cameH935, I was afraid, and fellH5307 on my faceH6440; and he saidH559 unto me, UnderstandH995, sonH1121 of manH120; for the visionH2377 is for the timeH6256 of the endH7093.
18Now, as he was speakingH1696 with me, I was in a deep stupor, with my faceH6440 toward the groundH776. And he touchedH5060 me, and setH5975 me up where I had stoodH5975.
19And he saidH559, Behold, I will makeH3045 thee knowH3045 what shall beH1961 at the endH7093 of the indignationH2195: for at the set timeH4150 the endH7093 shall beH1961.
20The ramH352 that thou sawest having the two hornsH7161: they are the kingsH4428 of MediaH4074 and PersiaH6539.
21And the rough goatH8163 is the kingH4428 of GreeceH3120; and the greatH1419 hornH7161 that was between his eyesH5869 is the firstH7223 kingH4428.
22Now that being brokenH7665, whereas fourH702 stoodH5975 up in its stead, fourH702 kingdomsH4438 shall standH5975 up out of the nationH1471, but not with his powerH3581.
23And at the latterH319 time of their kingdomH4438, when the transgressorsH6586 shall have come to the full, a kingH4428 of bold countenance, and understandingH995 riddlesH2420, shall standH5975 up.
24And his powerH3581 shall be mightyH6099, but not by his own powerH3581; and he shall destroyH7843 marvellously, and shall prosperH6743, and shall practise, and shall destroyH7843 the mightyH6099 onesH6918, and the peopleH5971 of the saints.
25And through his cunning shall he cause craft to prosperH6743 in his handH3027; and he will magnifyH1431 [himself] in his heartH3824, and by prosperityH7962 will corruptH7843 manyH7227; and he will standH5975 up against the PrinceH8269 of princesH8269: but he shall be brokenH7665 without handH3027.
26And the visionH2377 of the eveningH6153 and the morningH1242 which hath been told is true; but close thou up the visionH2377, for it is for manyH7227 daysH3117 [to come].
