Daniel 7:7-14
7AfterH870 thisH1836 I keptH1934 lookingH2370 in the nightH3916 visionsH2376, and beholdH718, a 1fourthH7244 beastH2423, dreadfulH1763 and terrifyingH368 and extremelyH3493 strongH8624; and it had largeH7229 ironH6523 teethH8128. It devouredH399 and crushedH1855 and trampledH7512 downH7512 the remainderH7606 with its feetH7271; and it was differentH8133 from allH3606 the beastsH2423 that were beforeH6925 it, and it had 2tenH6236 hornsH7162. 8While I was contemplatingH7920 the hornsH7162, beholdH431, 3anotherH321 hornH7162, a littleH2192 oneH2192, cameH5559 up amongH997 them, and threeH8532 of the firstH6933 hornsH7162 were pulledH6132 out by the rootsH6132 beforeH4481H6925 it; and beholdH431, 4thisH1668 hornH7162 possessed eyesH5870 like the eyesH5870 of a manH606 and 5a mouthH6433 utteringH4449 greatH7229 boasts.
9“I keptH1934 lookingH2370 UntilH5705H1768 6thronesH3764 were setH7412 up, And the AncientH6268 of DaysH3118 tookH3488 His seatH3488; His 7vestureH3831 was like whiteH2358 snowH8517 And the 8hairH8177 of His headH7217 like pureH5343 woolH6015. His 9throneH3764 was 10ablazeH7631 with flamesH7631, Its 11wheelsH1535 were a burningH1815 fireH5135.10A riverH5103 of 12fireH5135 was flowingH5047 And comingH5312 out from beforeH6925 Him; 13ThousandsH506 upon thousandsH506 were attendingH8120 Him, And myriadsH7240 upon myriadsH7240 were standingH6966 beforeH6925 Him; The 14courtH1780 satH3488, And 15the booksH5609 were openedH6606. 11ThenH116 I keptH1934 lookingH2370 becauseH4481 of the soundH7032 of the 16boastfulH7229 wordsH4406 whichH1768 the hornH7162 was speakingH4449; I keptH1934 lookingH2370 untilH5705H1768 the beastH2423 was slainH6992, and its bodyH1655 was destroyedH7 and givenH3052 to the 17burningH3346 18fireH785. 12As for the restH7606 of the beastsH2423, their dominionH7985 was takenH5709 awayH5709, but an extensionH754 of lifeH2417 was grantedH3052 to them for an appointedH2166 periodH2166 of timeH5732.
13“I keptH1934 lookingH2370 in the nightH3916 visionsH2376, And beholdH718, with the cloudsH6050 of heavenH8065 One like a 19SonH1247 of ManH606 was comingH858, And He cameH4291 up to the AncientH6268 of DaysH3118 And was presentedH7127 beforeH6925 Him.14And to Him was givenH3052 20dominionH7985, GloryH3367 and 2122a kingdomH4437, 23That allH3606 the peoplesH5972, nationsH524 and men of every 24languageH3961 Might serveH6399 Him. 25His dominionH7985 is an everlastingH5957 dominionH7985 WhichH1768 will not passH5709 awayH5709; 26And His kingdomH4437 is one WhichH1768 will not be destroyedH2255.
