2 Esdras 11:12

12 As I watched, one wing on the right side rose up, and it reigned over all the earth.

2 Esdras 11:12 In-Context

10 I looked again and saw that the voice did not come from its heads, but from the middle of its body.

11 I counted its rival wings, and there were eight of them.

12 As I watched, one wing on the right side rose up, and it reigned over all the earth.

13 And after a time its reign came to an end, and it disappeared, so that even its place was no longer visible. Then the next wing rose up and reigned, and it continued to reign a long time.

14 While it was reigning its end came also, so that it disappeared like the first.
