Daniel 7:9-14

9“I kept looking Until 1thrones were set up, And the Ancient of Days took His seat; His 2garment was white as snow, And the 3hair of His head like pure wool. His 4throne was 5ablaze with flames, Its 6wheels were a burning fire.10A river of 7fire was flowing And coming out from before Him; 8Thousands upon thousands were serving Him, And myriads upon myriads were standing before Him; The 9court 10convened, And 11the books were opened. 11Then I kept looking because of the sound of the 12boastful words which the horn was speaking; I kept looking until the beast was killed, and its body was destroyed and given to the 13burning 14fire. 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 15dominion, Honor, and 1617a kingdom, 18So that all the peoples, nations, and populations of all 19languages Might serve Him. 20His dominion is an everlasting dominion Which will not pass away; 21And His kingdom is one Which will not be destroyed.
