Daniel 7:7-14
7After this I kept looking in the night visions, and behold, a 1fourth beast, dreadful and terrible, and extremely strong; and it had large iron teeth. It devoured and crushed, and trampled down the remainder with its feet; and it was different from all the beasts that were before it, and it had 2ten horns. 8While I was thinking about the horns, behold, 3another horn, a little one, came up among them, and three of the previous horns were plucked out before it; and behold, 4this horn possessed eyes like human eyes, and 5a mouth uttering great boasts.
9“I kept looking Until 6thrones were set up, And the Ancient of Days took His seat; His 7garment was white as snow, And the 8hair of His head like pure wool. His 9throne was 10ablaze with flames, Its 11wheels were a burning fire.10A river of 12fire was flowing And coming out from before Him; 13Thousands upon thousands were serving Him, And myriads upon myriads were standing before Him; The 14court 15convened, And 16the books were opened. 11Then I kept looking because of the sound of the 17boastful words which the horn was speaking; I kept looking until the beast was killed, and its body was destroyed and given to the 18burning 19fire. 12As for the rest of the beasts, their dominion was taken away, but an extension of life was granted to them for an appointed period of time.
13“I kept looking in the night visions, And behold, with the clouds of heaven One like a son of man was coming, And He came up to the Ancient of Days And was presented before Him.14And to Him was given 20dominion, Honor, and 2122a kingdom, 23So that all the peoples, nations, and populations of all 24languages Might serve Him. 25His dominion is an everlasting dominion Which will not pass away; 26And His kingdom is one Which will not be destroyed.
