Daniel 8:20-25

20The ramH352 which thou sawestH7200 havingH1167 two hornsH7161 are the kingsH4428 of MediaH4074 and PersiaH6539.

21And the roughH8163 goatH6842 is the kingH4428 of GreciaH3120: and the greatH1419 hornH7161 that is between his eyesH5869 is the firstH7223 kingH4428.

22Now that being brokenH7665, whereas fourH702 stood upH5975 for it, fourH702 kingdomsH4438 shall stand upH5975 out of the nationH1471, but not in his powerH3581.

23And in the latter timeH319 of their kingdomH4438, when the transgressorsH6586 are come to the fullH8552, a kingH4428 of fierceH5794 countenanceH6440, and understandingH995 dark sentencesH2420, shall stand upH5975.1

24And his powerH3581 shall be mightyH6105, but not by his own powerH3581: and he shall destroyH7843 wonderfullyH6381, and shall prosperH6743, and practiseH6213, and shall destroyH7843 the mightyH6099 and the holyH6918 peopleH5971.2

25And through his policyH7922 also he shall cause craftH4820 to prosperH6743 in his handH3027; and he shall magnifyH1431 himself in his heartH3824, and by peaceH7962 shall destroyH7843 manyH7227: he shall also stand upH5975 against the PrinceH8269 of princesH8269; but he shall be brokenH7665 withoutH657 handH3027.3
