Daniel 2:41-44

41And in that you saw the feet and toes, partly of potter’s clay and partly of iron, it will be a divided kingdom; but it will have within it some of the toughness of iron, since you saw the iron mixed with 1common clay.

42And just as the toes of the feet were partly of iron and partly of pottery, so some of the kingdom will be strong, and part of it will be fragile.

43In that you saw the iron mixed with 2common clay, they will combine with one another 3in 4their descendants; but they will not adhere to one another, just as iron does not combine with pottery.

44And in the days of those kings the 5God of heaven will 6set up a 7kingdom which will never be destroyed, and that kingdom will not be 8left for another people; it will 9crush and put an end to all these kingdoms, but it will itself endure forever.
