Daniel 7:7-11
New American Standard Bible
7 After this I kept looking in the night visions, and behold, a (A)fourth beast, dreadful and terrible, and extremely strong; and it had large iron teeth. It devoured and crushed, and trampled down the remainder with its feet; and it was different from all the beasts that were before it, and it had (B)ten horns. 8 While I was thinking about the horns, behold, (C)another horn, a little one, came up among them, and three of the previous horns were plucked out before it; and behold, [a]this horn possessed eyes like human eyes, and (D)a mouth uttering great boasts.
The Ancient of Days Reigns
9 “I kept looking
Until (E)thrones were set up,
And the Ancient of Days took His seat;
His (F)garment was white as snow,
And the (G)hair of His head like pure wool.
His (H)throne was [b]ablaze with flames,
Its (I)wheels were a burning fire.
10 A river of (J)fire was flowing
And coming out from before Him;
(K)Thousands upon thousands were serving Him,
And myriads upon myriads were standing before Him;
The (L)court [c]convened,
And (M)the books were opened.
11 Then I kept looking because of the sound of the [d]boastful words which the horn was speaking; I kept looking until the beast was killed, and its body was destroyed and given to the (N)burning [e]fire.
