Daniel 8:9-12

9And out of one of them came a rather 1small horn which grew exceedingly great toward the south, toward the east, and toward the 23Beautiful Land.

10It grew up to the heavenly 4lights, and some of the 5lights, 6that is, some of the 7stars it threw down to the earth, and it 8trampled them.

11It even 9exalted itself 10to be equal with the 11Commander of the army; and it removed the 12regular sacrifice from Him, and the place of His sanctuary was overthrown.

12And because of 13an offense the army will be given to the horn along with the regular sacrifice; and it will 14hurl truth to the ground and do as it pleases and be successful.
