Daniel 8:1-4

The Message

A Vision of a Ram and a Billy Goat

8 “In King Belshazzar’s third year as king, another vision came to me, Daniel. This was now the second vision.

^2-4 “In the vision, I saw myself in Susa, the capital city of the province Elam, standing at the Ulai Canal. Looking around, I was surprised to see a ram also standing at the gate. The ram had two huge horns, one bigger than the other, but the bigger horn was the last to appear. I watched as the ram charged: first west, then north, then south. No beast could stand up to him. He did just as he pleased, strutting as if he were king of the beasts.
