Daniel 8:2-10
2And I sawH7200 in the visionH2377; nowH1961 it was soH1961, that when I sawH7200, I was in Shushan the palace, whichH834 is in the provinceH4082 of ElamH5867; and I sawH7200 in the visionH2377, and I was by the river UlaiH195.
3Then I liftedH5375 upH5927 mineH4480 eyesH5869, and sawH7200, and, beholdH2009, there stoodH5975 beforeH6440 the river a ramH352 whichH5869 had twoH4480 hornsH7161: and the twoH4480 hornsH7161 were highH1364; but one was higherH1364 thanH4480 the otherH259, and the higherH1364 cameH5927 upH5927 lastH314.
4I sawH7200 the ramH352 pushing westwardH3220, and northwardH6828, and southwardH5045; and noH3808 beastsH2416 couldH5337 standH5975 beforeH6440 him, neitherH3808 was there anyH3605 that couldH5337 deliverH5337 outH6440 of his handH3027; but he didH6213 accordingH3027 to his will, and magnifiedH1431 himselfH1431.
5And as I was considering, beholdH2009, an he-goat cameH935 from the westH4628 over the faceH6440 of the wholeH3605 earthH776, and touchedH5060 notH369 the groundH776: and the goatH5795 had a notable hornH7161 betweenH996 his eyesH5869.
6And he cameH935 to the ramH352 that had the two hornsH7161, whichH834 I sawH7200 standingH5975 beforeH6440 the riverH5704, and ranH7323 uponH935 him in the furyH2534 of his powerH3581.
7And I sawH7200 him comeH1961 closeH5060 unto the ramH352, and he was moved with choler againstH413 him, and smoteH5221 the ramH352, and brake his twoH8147 hornsH7161; and there was noH3808 powerH3027 in the ramH352 to standH5975 beforeH6440 him: but he castH7993 him downH5221 to the groundH776, and trampledH7429 uponH1961 him; and there was noneH3808 that couldH5337 deliverH5337 the ramH352 outH6440 of his handH3027.
8And the he-goat magnifiedH1431 himselfH1431 exceedinglyH3966: and when he was strongH1419, the greatH1419 hornH7161 was brokenH7665; and insteadH8478 of it there cameH5927 upH5927 fourH702 notable hornsH7161 towardH5927 the fourH702 windsH7307 of heavenH8064.
9And outH3318 of one of them cameH3318 forthH3318 a little hornH7161, whichH7161 waxed exceeding greatH1431, towardH413 the southH5045, and towardH413 the eastH4217, and towardH413 the glorious land.
10And it waxed greatH1431, evenH5704 to the hostH6635 of heavenH8064; and someH4480 of the hostH6635 and of the starsH3556 it castH5307 downH5307 to the groundH776, and trampledH7429 uponH5307 them.
