Daniel 7:8-10
New International Version
8 “While I was thinking about the horns, there before me was another horn, a little(A) one, which came up among them; and three of the first horns were uprooted before it. This horn had eyes like the eyes of a human being(B) and a mouth that spoke boastfully.(C)
9 “As I looked,
“thrones were set in place,
and the Ancient of Days(D) took his seat.(E)
His clothing was as white as snow;(F)
the hair of his head was white like wool.(G)
His throne was flaming with fire,
and its wheels(H) were all ablaze.
10 A river of fire(I) was flowing,
coming out from before him.(J)
Thousands upon thousands attended him;
ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him.
The court was seated,
and the books(K) were opened.
Daniel 7:8-10
New King James Version
8 I was considering the horns, and (A)there was another horn, a little one, coming up among them, before whom three of the first horns were plucked out by the roots. And there, in this horn, were eyes like the eyes (B)of a man, (C)and a mouth speaking [a]pompous words.
Vision of the Ancient of Days
9 “I(D) watched till thrones were [b]put in place,
And (E)the Ancient of Days was seated;
(F)His garment was white as snow,
And the hair of His head was like pure wool.
His throne was a fiery flame,
(G)Its wheels a burning fire;
10 (H)A fiery stream issued
And came forth from before Him.
(I)A thousand thousands ministered to Him;
Ten thousand times ten thousand stood before Him.
(J)The [c]court was seated,
And the books were opened.
