Daniel 7:20-25

20and the meaning of the ten horns that were on its head and the other horn which came up, and before which three of them fell, namely, that horn which had eyes and a mouth uttering great boasts and 1which was larger in appearance than its associates. 21I kept looking, and that horn was 2waging war with the 3saints and overpowering them 22until the Ancient of Days came and 4judgment was 5passed in favor of the 6saints of the Highest One, and the time arrived when the 7saints took possession of the kingdom.

23“Thus he said: ‘The fourth beast will be a fourth kingdom on the earth, which will be different from all the other kingdoms and will devour the whole earth and tread it down and crush it. 24As for the 8ten horns, out of this kingdom ten kings will arise; and another will arise after them, and he will be different from the previous ones and will subdue three kings. 25He will 9speak 10out against the 11Most High and 12wear down the 13saints of the Highest One, and he will intend to make 14alterations in times and in law; and 15they will be given into his hand for a 1617time, 18times, and half a 19time.
