22
And after this I looked and saw that the twelve wings and the two little wings had disappeared,
23
and nothing remained on the eagle's body except the three heads that were at rest and six little wings.
24
As I kept looking I saw that two little wings separated from the six and remained under the head that was on the right side; but four remained in their place.
25
Then I saw that these little wings planned to set themselves up and hold the rule.
26
As I kept looking, one was set up, but suddenly disappeared;
27
a second also, and this disappeared more quickly than the first.
28
While I continued to look the two that remained were planning between themselves to reign together;
29
and while they were planning, one of the heads that were at rest (the one that was in the middle) suddenly awoke; it was greater than the other two heads.
30
And I saw how it allied the two heads with itself,
31
and how the head turned with those that were with it and devoured the two little wings that were planning to reign.
32
Moreover this head gained control of the whole earth, and with much oppression dominated its inhabitants; it had greater power over the world than all the wings that had gone before.
