Daniel 7:2-4

Expanded Bible

² Daniel said: “I saw my vision at night. In the vision the ·wind was blowing from all four directions, which made the sea very rough [^Lfour winds of heaven stirred up the great sea; ^Ca picture of chaos]. ³ I saw four huge ·animals [beasts] come up from the sea, and each ·animal [beast] was different from the others.

⁴ “The first ·animal [beast] looked like a lion, but had wings like an eagle. I watched this ·animal [beast] until its wings were torn off. It was lifted from the ground so that it stood up on two feet like a human, and it was given the ·mind [heart] of a human [^Cperhaps representing Babylon].
