1. In the first H2298 year H8140 of Belshazzar H1113 king H4430 of Babylon H895 Daniel H1841 had H2370 a dream H2493 and visions H2376 of his head H7217 upon H5922 his bed H4903 : then H116 he wrote H3790 the dream H2493 , and told H560 the sum H7217 of the matters H4406 .
|
|
2. Daniel spoke and said, I saw in my vision by night, and, behold, the four winds of the sky broke forth on the great sea.
|
2. Daniel H1841 spoke H6032 and said H560 , I saw H1934 H2370 in my vision H2376 by H5974 night H3916 , and, behold H718 , the four H703 winds H7308 of the heaven H8065 strove H1519 upon the great H7229 sea H3221 .
|
|
3. Four great animals came up from the sea, diverse one from another.
|
3. And four H703 great H7260 beasts H2423 came up H5559 from H4481 the sea H3221 , diverse H8133 one H1668 from another H4481 H1668 .
|
|
4. The first was like a lion, and had eagle's wings: I saw until the wings of it were plucked, and it was lifted up from the earth, and made to stand on two feet as a man; and a man's heart was given to it.
|
4. The first H6933 was like a lion H744 , and had eagle H1768 H5403 's wings H1611 : I beheld H1934 H2370 till H5705 H1768 the wings H1611 thereof were plucked H4804 , and it was lifted up H5191 from H4481 the earth H772 , and made stand H6966 upon H5922 the feet H7271 as a man H606 , and a man H606 's heart H3825 was given H3052 to it.
|
|
5. Behold, another animal, a second, like a bear; and it was raised up on one side, and three ribs were in its mouth between its teeth: and they said thus to it, Arise, devour much flesh.
|
5. And behold H718 another H317 beast H2423 , a second H8578 , like H1821 to a bear H1678 , and it raised up H6966 itself on one H2298 side H7859 , and it had three H8532 ribs H5967 in the mouth H6433 of it between H997 the teeth H8128 of it : and they said H560 thus H3652 unto it, Arise H6966 , devour H399 much H7690 flesh H1321 .
|
|
6. After this I saw, and, behold, another, like a leopard, which had on its back four wings of a bird; the animal had also four heads; and dominion was given to it.
|
6. After H870 this H1836 I beheld H1934 H2370 , and lo H718 another H317 , like a leopard H5245 , which had upon H5922 the back H1355 of it four H703 wings H1611 of H1768 a fowl H5776 ; the beast H2423 had also four H703 heads H7217 ; and dominion H7985 was given H3052 to it.
|
|
7. After this I saw in the night-visions, and, behold, a fourth animal, awesome and powerful, and strong exceedingly; and it had great iron teeth; it devoured and broke in pieces, and stamped the residue with its feet: and it was diverse from all the animals that were before it; and it had ten horns.
|
7. After H870 this H1836 I saw H1934 H2370 in the night H3916 visions H2376 , and behold H718 a fourth H7244 beast H2423 , dreadful H1763 and terrible H574 , and strong H8624 exceedingly H3493 ; and it had great H7260 iron H1768 H6523 teeth H8128 : it devoured H399 and broke in pieces H1855 , and stamped H7512 the residue H7606 with the feet H7271 of it : and it H1932 was diverse H8133 from H4481 all H3606 the beasts H2423 that H1768 were before H6925 it ; and it had ten H6236 horns H7162 .
|
|
8. I considered the horns, and, behold, there came up among them another horn, a little one, before which three of the first horns were plucked up by the roots: and, behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of a man, and a mouth speaking great things.
|
8. I considered H1934 H7920 the horns H7162 , and, behold H431 , there came up H5559 among H997 them another H317 little H2192 horn H7162 , before H4481 H6925 whom there were three H8532 of H4481 the first H6933 horns H7162 plucked up by the roots H6132 : and, behold H431 , in this H1668 horn H7162 were eyes H5870 like the eyes H5870 of man H606 , and a mouth H6433 speaking H4449 great things H7260 .
|
|
9. I saw until thrones were placed, and one who was ancient of days sat: his clothing was white as snow, and the hair of his head like pure wool; his throne was fiery flames, and the wheels of it burning fire.
|
9. I beheld H1934 H2370 till H5705 H1768 the thrones H3764 were cast down H7412 , and the Ancient H6268 of days H3118 did sit H3488 , whose garment H3831 was white H2358 as snow H8517 , and the hair H8177 of his head H7217 like the pure H5343 wool H6015 : his throne H3764 was like the fiery H1768 H5135 flame H7631 , and his wheels H1535 as burning H1815 fire H5135 .
|
|
10. A fiery stream issued and came forth from before him: thousands of thousands ministered to him, and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him: the judgment was set, and the books were opened.
|
10. A fiery H1768 H5135 stream H5103 issued H5047 and came forth H5312 from H4481 before H6925 him: thousand H506 thousands H506 ministered H8120 unto him , and ten thousand times ten thousand H7240 H7240 stood H6966 before H6925 him : the judgment H1780 was set H3488 , and the books H5609 were opened H6606 .
|
|
11. I saw at that time because of the voice of the great words which the horn spoke; I saw even until the animal was slain, and its body destroyed, and it was given to be burned with fire.
|
11. I beheld H1934 H2370 then H116 because of H4481 the voice H7032 of the great H7260 words H4406 which H1768 the horn H7162 spoke H4449 : I beheld H1934 H2370 even till H5705 H1768 the beast H2423 was slain H6992 , and his body H1655 destroyed H7 , and given H3052 to the burning H3346 flame H785 .
|
|
12. As for the rest of the animals, their dominion was taken away: yet their lives were prolonged for a season and a time.
|
12. As concerning the rest H7606 of the beasts H2423 , they had their dominion H7985 taken away H5709 : yet their lives H2417 were prolonged H754 H3052 for H5705 a season H2166 and time H5732 .
|
|
13. I saw in the night-visions, and, behold, there came with the clouds of the sky one like a son of man, and he came even to the ancient of days, and they brought him near before him.
|
13. I saw H1934 H2370 in the night H3916 visions H2376 , and, behold H718 , one like the Son H1247 of man H606 came H1934 H858 with H5974 the clouds H6050 of heaven H8065 , and came H4291 to H5705 the Ancient H6268 of days H3118 , and they brought him near H7127 before H6925 him.
|
|
14. There was given him dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, that all the peoples, nations, and languages should serve him: his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed.
|
14. And there was given H3052 him dominion H7985 , and glory H3367 , and a kingdom H4437 , that all H3606 people H5972 , nations H524 , and languages H3961 , should serve H6399 him : his dominion H7985 is an everlasting H5957 dominion H7985 , which H1768 shall not H3809 pass away H5709 , and his kingdom H4437 that which H1768 shall not H3809 be destroyed H2255 .
|
|
15. As for me, Daniel, my spirit was grieved in the midst of my body, and the visions of my head troubled me.
|
15. I H576 Daniel H1841 was grieved H3735 in my spirit H7308 in the midst H1459 of my body H5085 , and the visions H2376 of my head H7217 troubled H927 me.
|
|
16. I came near to one of those who stood by, and asked him the truth concerning all this. So he told me, and made me know the interpretation of the things.
|
16. I came near H7127 unto H5922 one H2298 of H4481 them that stood by H6966 , and asked H1156 H4481 him the truth H3330 of H5922 all H3606 this H1836 . So he told H560 me , and made me know H3046 the interpretation H6591 of the things H4406 .
|
|
17. These great animals, which are four, are four kings, who shall arise out of the earth.
|
17. These H459 great H7260 beasts H2423 , which H1768 are four H703 , are four H703 kings H4430 , which shall arise H6966 out of H4481 the earth H772 .
|
|
18. But the saints of the Most High shall receive the kingdom, and possess the kingdom forever, even forever and ever.
|
18. But the saints H6922 of the most High H5946 shall take H6902 the kingdom H4437 , and possess H2631 the kingdom H4437 forever H5705 H5957 , even forever H5705 H5957 and ever H5957 .
|
|
19. Then I desired to know the truth concerning the fourth animal, which was diverse from all of them, exceedingly terrible, whose teeth were of iron, and its nails of brass; which devoured, broke in pieces, and stamped the residue with its feet;
|
19. Then H116 I would H6634 know H3046 the truth H3321 of H5922 the fourth H7244 beast H2423 , which H1768 was H1934 diverse H8133 from H4481 all H3606 the others, exceeding H3493 dreadful H1763 , whose teeth H8128 were of H1768 iron H6523 , and his nails H2953 of H1768 brass H5174 ; which devoured H399 , broke in pieces H1855 , and stamped H7512 the residue H7606 with his feet H7271 ;
|
|
20. and concerning the ten horns that were on its head, and the other horn which came up, and before which three fell, even that horn that had eyes, and a mouth that spoke great things, whose look was more stout than its fellows.
|
20. And of H5922 the ten H6236 horns H7162 that H1768 were in his head H7217 , and of the other H317 which H1768 came up H5559 , and before H4481 H6925 whom three H8532 fell H5308 ; even of that H1797 horn H7162 that had eyes H5870 , and a mouth H6433 that spoke H4449 very great things H7260 , whose look H2376 was more stout H7229 than H4481 his fellows H2273 .
|
|
21. I saw, and the same horn made war with the saints, and prevailed against them;
|
21. I beheld H1934 H2370 , and the same H1797 horn H7162 made H5648 war H7129 with H5974 the saints H6922 , and prevailed H3202 against them;
|
|
22. until the ancient of days came, and judgment was given to the saints of the Most High, and the time came that the saints possessed the kingdom.
|
22. Until H5705 H1768 the Ancient H6268 of days H3118 came H858 , and judgment H1780 was given H3052 to the saints H6922 of the most High H5946 ; and the time H2166 came H4291 that the saints H6922 possessed H2631 the kingdom H4437 .
|
|
23. Thus he said, The fourth animal shall be a fourth kingdom on earth, which shall be diverse from all the kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces.
|
23. Thus H3652 he said H560 , The fourth H7244 beast H2423 shall be H1934 the fourth H7244 kingdom H4437 upon earth H772 , which H1768 shall be diverse H8133 from H4481 all H3606 kingdoms H4437 , and shall devour H399 the whole H3606 earth H772 , and shall tread it down H1759 , and break it in pieces H1855 .
|
|
24. As for the ten horns, out of this kingdom shall ten kings arise: and another shall arise after them; and he shall be diverse from the former, and he shall put down three kings.
|
24. And the ten H6236 horns H7162 out of H4481 this kingdom H4437 are ten H6236 kings H4430 that shall arise H6966 : and another H321 shall rise H6966 after H311 them ; and he H1932 shall be diverse H8133 from H4481 the first H6933 , and he shall subdue H8214 three H8532 kings H4430 .
|
|
25. He shall speak words against the Most High, and shall wear out the saints of the Most High; and he shall think to change the times and the law; and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and half a time.
|
25. And he shall speak H4449 great words H4406 against H6655 the most High H5943 , and shall wear out H1080 the saints H6922 of the most High H5946 , and think H5452 to change H8133 times H2166 and laws H1882 : and they shall be given H3052 into his hand H3028 until H5705 a time H5732 and times H5732 and the dividing H6387 of time H5732 .
|
|
26. But the judgment shall be set, and they shall take away his dominion, to consume and to destroy it to the end.
|
26. But the judgment H1780 shall sit H3488 , and they shall take away H5709 his dominion H7985 , to consume H8046 and to destroy H7 it unto H5705 the end H5491 .
|
|
27. The kingdom and the dominion, and the greatness of the kingdoms under the whole the sky, shall be given to the people of the saints of the Most High: his kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and all dominions shall serve and obey him.
|
27. And the kingdom H4437 and dominion H7985 , and the greatness H7238 of H1768 the kingdom H4437 under H8460 the whole H3606 heaven H8065 , shall be given H3052 to the people H5972 of the saints H6922 of the most High H5946 , whose kingdom H4437 is an everlasting H5957 kingdom H4437 , and all H3606 dominions H7985 shall serve H6399 and obey H8086 him.
|
|
28. Here is the end of the matter. As for me, Daniel, my thoughts much troubled me, and my face was changed in me: but I kept the matter in my heart.
|
28. Hitherto H5705 H3542 is the end H5491 of H1768 the matter H4406 . As for me H576 Daniel H1841 , my cogitations H7476 much H7690 troubled H927 me , and my countenance H2122 changed H8133 in H5922 me : but I kept H5202 the matter H4406 in my heart H3821 .
