The Ancient of Days and the Son of Man

“As I kept watching,

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)

11 “I watched, then, because of the sound of the arrogant words the horn was speaking. As I continued watching, the beast was killed and its body destroyed and given over to the burning fire.(J) 12 As for the rest of the beasts, their dominion was removed, but an extension of life was granted to them for a certain period of time.(K) 13 I continued watching in the night visions,

and suddenly one like a son of man(L)
was coming with the clouds of heaven.(M)
He approached the Ancient of Days
and was escorted before him.
14 He was given dominion(N)
and glory and a kingdom,
so that those of every people,
nation, and language(O)
should serve(P) him.
His dominion is an everlasting(Q) dominion
that will not pass away,
and his kingdom is one
that will not be destroyed.
