⁴¹ Whereas you saw the feet and toes, partly of potter’s clay and partly of iron, the kingdom shall be divided; yet the strength of the iron shall be in it, just as you saw the iron mixed with ceramic clay.

The Beast from the Sea

13 Then ^[a]I stood on the sand of the sea. And I saw ^(A)a beast rising up out of the sea, ^(B)having ^[b]seven heads and ten horns, and on his horns ten crowns, and on his heads a ^(C)blasphemous name.

³ And another sign appeared in heaven: behold, ^(A)a great, fiery red dragon having seven heads and ten horns, and seven diadems on his heads.

⁷ “After this I saw in the night visions, and behold, ^(A)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, ^(B)and it had ten horns.

³³ its legs of iron, its feet partly of iron and partly of ^[a]clay. ³⁴ You watched while a stone was cut out ^(A)without hands, which struck the image on its feet of iron and clay, and broke them in pieces. ^35 (B)Then the iron, the clay, the bronze, the silver, and the gold were crushed together, and became ^(C)like chaff from the summer threshing floors; the wind carried them away so that ^(D)no trace of them was found. And the stone that struck the image ^(E)became a great mountain ^(F)and filled the whole earth.
