In the
first year of
Belshazzar king of
Babylon Daniel had a
dream and
visions of his
head upon his
bed: then he
wrote the
dream, and
told the
sum of the
matters.

Daniel spake and
said, I
saw* in my
vision by night, and,
behold, the
four winds of the
heaven strove upon the
great sea.

And
four great beasts came
up from the
sea, diverse one from another.

The
first was like a
lion, and had
eagle's wings: I
beheld* till the
wings thereof were
plucked, and it was lifted
up from the
earth, and made
stand upon the
feet as a
man, and a
man's heart was
given to it.

And
behold another beast, a
second, like to a
bear, and it raised
up itself on
one side, and it had
three ribs in the
mouth of it
between the
teeth of it: and they
said thus unto it,
Arise,
devour much flesh.

After this I
beheld*, and
lo another, like a
leopard, which had
upon the
back of it
four wings of a
fowl; the
beast had also
four heads; and
dominion was
given to it.

After this I
saw* in the
night visions, and
behold a
fourth beast, dreadful and
terrible, and
strong exceedingly; and it had
great iron teeth: it
devoured and brake in
pieces, and
stamped the
residue with the
feet of it: and
it was
diverse from all the
beasts that were
before it; and it had
ten horns.

I
considered* the
horns, and,
behold, there came
up among them
another little horn, before whom there were
three of the
first horns plucked up by the
roots: and,
behold, in
this horn were
eyes like the
eyes of
man, and a
mouth speaking great
things.

I
beheld* till the
thrones were cast
down, and the
Ancient of
days did
sit, whose
garment was
white as
snow, and the
hair of his
head like the
pure wool: his
throne was like the
fiery flame, and his
wheels as
burning fire.

A
fiery stream issued and came
forth from before him:
thousand thousands ministered unto him, and ten
thousand times ten
thousand stood before him: the
judgment was
set, and the
books were
opened.
