6
"After this I kept looking, and behold, another one, 1like a leopard, which had on its back four wings of a bird; the beast also had 2four heads, and dominion was given to it.
7
"After this I kept looking in the night visions, and behold, a 3fourth beast, dreadful and terrifying and extremely strong; and it had large iron teeth. It devoured and crushed and trampled down the remainder with its feet; and it was different from all the beasts that were before it, and it had 4ten horns.
8
"While I was contemplating the horns, behold, 5another horn, a little one, came up among them, and three of the first horns were pulled out by the roots before * it; and behold, this horn possessed eyes like the eyes of a man and 6a mouth uttering great boasts.
The Ancient of Days Reigns
9 "I kept looking Until * 7thrones were set up, And the Ancient of Days took His seat; His 8vesture was like white snow And the 9hair of His head like pure wool. His 10throne was ablaze with flames, Its 11wheels were a burning fire.
10
"A river of 12fire was flowing And coming out from before Him; 13Thousands upon thousands were attending Him, And myriads upon myriads were standing before Him; The 14court sat, And 15the books were opened.
11
"Then I kept looking because of the sound of the boastful words which the horn was speaking; I kept looking until * the beast was slain, and its body was destroyed and given to the 16burning fire.
12
"As for the rest of the beasts, their dominion was taken away, but an extension of life was granted to them for an appointed period of time.
The Son of Man Presented
13 "I kept looking in the night visions, And behold, with the clouds of heaven One like a 17Son of Man was coming, And He came up to the Ancient of Days And was presented before Him.
14
"And to Him was given 18dominion, Glory and 19a kingdom, 20That all the peoples, nations and men of every language Might serve Him. 21His dominion is an everlasting dominion Which will not pass away; 22And His kingdom is one Which will not be destroyed.
