19 Then I wished to make certain about the fourth beast, so very terrible and different from the others, devouring and crushing with its iron teeth and bronze claws, and trampling with its feet what was left;
20 and about the ten horns on its head, and the other one that sprang up, before which three horns fell; and about the horn with the eyes and the mouth that spoke arrogantly, which appeared greater than its fellows.
21 For, as I watched, that horn made war against the holy ones and was victorious
22 until the Ancient of Days came, and judgment was pronounced in favor of the holy ones of the Most High, and the time arrived for the holy ones to possess the kingship.
23 He answered me thus:“The fourth beast shall be a fourth kingdom on earth,different from all the others;The whole earth it shall devour,trample down and crush.
24 The ten horns shall be ten kingsrising out of that kingdom;another shall rise up after them,Different from those before him,who shall lay low three kings.
25 He shall speak against the Most Highand wear down the holy ones of the Most High,intending to change the feast days and the law.They shall be handed over to himfor a time, two times, and half a time.
