Daniel 2:33-41

33its legsH8243 of ironH6523, its feetH7271 partlyH4481 of ironH6523 and partlyH4481 of clayH2635. 34You 1continuedH1934 lookingH2370 untilH5705H1768 a 2stoneH69 was cutH1505 out 3withoutH3809 handsH3028, and it struckH4223 the statueH6755 on its feetH7271 of ironH6523 and clayH2635 and 4crushedH1855 them. 35ThenH116 the ironH6523, the clayH2635, the bronzeH5174, the silverH3702 and the goldH1722 were crushedH1855 5allH3606 at the sameH2298 timeH2298 and becameH1934 6like chaffH5784 from the summerH7007 threshingH147 floorsH147; and the windH7308 carriedH5376 them away so that 7not a traceH870 of them was foundH7912. But the stoneH69 that struckH4223 the statueH6755 becameH1934 a greatH7229 8mountainH2906 and filledH4391 the wholeH3606 earthH772.

36“ThisH1836 was the dreamH2493; now we will tellH560 9its interpretationH6591 beforeH6925 the kingH4430. 37You, O kingH4430, are the 10kingH4430 of kingsH4430, to whomH1768 the GodH426 of heavenH8065 has givenH3052 the 11kingdomH4437, the 12powerH2632, the strengthH8632 and the gloryH3367; 38and whereverH3606H1768 the sonsH1123 of menH606 dwellH1753, or the 13beastsH2423 of the fieldH1251, or the birdsH5776 of the skyH8065, He has givenH3052 them into your handH3028 and has caused you to ruleH7981 over them allH3606. You are the headH7217 of goldH1722. 39AfterH870 you there will ariseH6966 anotherH321 kingdomH4437 inferiorH772 to you, then anotherH321 thirdH8523 kingdomH4437 of bronzeH5174, whichH1768 will ruleH7981 over allH3606 the earthH772. 40Then there will be a 14fourthH7244 kingdomH4437 as strongH8624 as ironH6523; inasmuchH3606H6903H1768 as ironH6523 crushesH1855 and shattersH2827 allH3606 thingsH3606, so, like ironH6523 that breaksH7490 in piecesH7490, it will crushH1855 and breakH7490 allH3606 theseH459 in piecesH7490. 41In that you sawH2370 the feetH7271 and toesH677, partlyH4481 of potter’sH6353 clayH2635 and partlyH4481 of ironH6523, it will be a dividedH6386 kingdomH4437; but it will haveH1934 in it the toughnessH5326 of ironH6523, inasmuchH3606H6903H1768 as you sawH2370 the ironH6523 mixedH6151 with 15commonH2917 clayH2635.
