thrones were set in place,^(A)
and the Ancient of Days took his seat.
His clothing was white like snow,^(B)
and the hair of his head like whitest wool.^(C)
His throne was flaming fire;^(D)
its wheels were blazing fire.^(E)
10 A river of fire was flowing,
coming out from his presence.
Thousands upon thousands^(F) served him;
ten thousand times ten thousand^(G) stood before him.
The court was convened,^(H)
and the books were opened.^(I)

and suddenly one like a son of man^(A)
was coming with the clouds of heaven.^(B)
He approached the Ancient of Days
and was escorted before him.
¹⁴ He was given dominion^(C)
and glory and a kingdom,
so that those of every people,
nation, and language^(D)
should serve^(E) him.
His dominion is an everlasting^(F) dominion
that will not pass away,
and his kingdom is one
that will not be destroyed.
