1 In the third year that Belshazzar was king, I saw a second vision.
2 In the vision I suddenly found myself in the walled city of Susa in the province of Elam. I was standing by the River Ulai,
3 and there beside the river I saw a ram that had two long horns, one of which was longer and newer than the other.
4 I watched the ram butting with his horns to the west, the north, and the south. No animal could stop him or escape his power. He did as he pleased and grew arrogant.
5 While I was wondering what this meant, a goat came rushing out of the west, moving so fast that his feet didn't touch the ground. He had one prominent horn between his eyes.
6 He came towards the ram, which I had seen standing beside the river, and rushed at him with all his force.
