8 I was considering the horns, and athere was another horn, a little one, coming up among them, before whom three of the first horns were plucked out by the roots. And there, in this horn, were eyes like the eyes bof a man, cand a mouth speaking pompous words.
Vision of the Ancient of Days
9 “Ia watched till thrones were put in place,
And bthe Ancient of Days was seated;
cHis garment was white as snow,
And the hair of His head was like pure wool.
His throne was a fiery flame,
dIts wheels a burning fire;
And bthe Ancient of Days was seated;
cHis garment was white as snow,
And the hair of His head was like pure wool.
His throne was a fiery flame,
dIts wheels a burning fire;
10 aA fiery stream issued
And came forth from before Him.
bA thousand thousands ministered to Him;
Ten thousand times ten thousand stood before Him.
cThe1 court was seated,
And the books were opened.
And came forth from before Him.
bA thousand thousands ministered to Him;
Ten thousand times ten thousand stood before Him.
cThe1 court was seated,
And the books were opened.
11 “I watched then because of the sound of the1 pompous words which the horn was speaking; aI watched till the beast was slain, and its body destroyed and given to the burning flame.
12 As for the rest of the beasts, they had their dominion taken away, yet their lives were prolonged for a season and a time.
13 “I was watching in the night visions,
And behold, aOne like the Son of Man,
Coming with the clouds of heaven!
He came to the Ancient of Days,
And they brought Him near before Him.
And behold, aOne like the Son of Man,
Coming with the clouds of heaven!
He came to the Ancient of Days,
And they brought Him near before Him.
