Daniel 7:3-8

New King James Version

³ And four great beasts ^(A)came up from the sea, each different from the other. ⁴ The first was ^(B)like a lion, and had eagle’s wings. I watched till its wings were plucked off; and it was lifted up from the earth and made to stand on two feet like a man, and a ^(C)man’s heart was given to it.

^5 (D)“And suddenly another beast, a second, like a bear. It was raised up on one side, and had three ribs in its mouth between its teeth. And they said thus to it: ‘Arise, devour much flesh!’

⁶ “After this I looked, and there was another, like a leopard, which had on its back four wings of a bird. The beast also had ^(E)four heads, and dominion was given to it.

⁷ “After this I saw in the night visions, and behold, ^(F)a fourth beast, dreadful and terrible, exceedingly strong. It had huge iron teeth; it was devouring, breaking in pieces, and trampling the residue with its feet. It was different from all the beasts that were before it, ^(G)and it had ten horns. ⁸ I was considering the horns, and ^(H)there 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 ^(I)of a man, ^(J)and a mouth speaking ^[a]pompous words.
