Daniel 8:24-27

24His power will be mighty, but not by his own power, And he will 12destroy to an extraordinary degree And prosper and perform his will; He will 3destroy mighty men and 4the holy people.25And through his shrewdness He will cause deceit to succeed by his 5influence; And he will magnify himself in his heart, And he will 6destroy many while they are 7at ease. He will even 89oppose the Prince of princes, But he will be broken 10without 11human agency.26The vision of the evenings and mornings Which has been told is 12true; But 13keep the vision secret, For it pertains to many 14days in the future.”

27Then I, Daniel, was 1516exhausted and sick for days. Then I got up again and 17carried on the king’s business; but I was astounded at the vision, and there was none to 18explain it.
