26 ‘But(A) the court shall be seated,
And they shall (B)take away his dominion,
To consume and destroy it forever.
27 Then the (C)kingdom and dominion,
And the greatness of the kingdoms under the whole heaven,
Shall be given to the people, the saints of the Most High.
(D)His kingdom is an everlasting kingdom,
(E)And all dominions shall serve and obey Him.’

28 “This is the end of the [a]account. As for me, Daniel, (F)my thoughts greatly troubled me, and my countenance changed; but I (G)kept the matter in my heart.”
