The Interpretation of the Vision

15 When I, Daniel, had seen the vision, I ¹sought to understand it. And behold, there stood before me one having ²the appearance of a man.

16 ³And I heard a man's voice ⁴between the banks of the ⁵Ulai, and it called, ⁶"Gabriel, make this man understand the vision."

17 So he came near where I stood. And when he came, ⁷I was frightened ⁸and fell on my face. But he said to me, "Understand, ⁹O son of man, that the vision is for ¹⁰the time of the end."

18 And when he had spoken to me, ¹¹I fell into a deep sleep with my face to the ground. But ¹²he touched me and made me stand up.

19 He said, "Behold, I will make known to you what shall be at the latter end of ¹³the indignation, for it refers to ¹⁴the appointed time of the end.

20 As for ¹⁵the ram that you saw with the two horns, these are the kings of ¹⁶Media and Persia.

21 And ¹⁷the goat^a is the king of Greece. And ¹⁸the great horn between his eyes is ¹⁹the first king.

22 ²⁰As for the horn that was broken, in place of which four others arose, four kingdoms shall arise from his^b nation, ²¹but not with his power.

23 And at the latter end of their kingdom, when the transgressors have reached their limit, a king of bold face, one who understands riddles, shall arise.

24 His power shall be great--²²but not by his own power; and he shall cause fearful destruction ²³and shall succeed in what he does, ²⁴and destroy mighty men and the people who are the saints.

25 ²⁵By his cunning he shall make deceit prosper under his hand, and in his own mind ²⁶he shall become great. ²⁷Without warning he shall destroy many. And he ²⁸shall even rise up against the Prince of princes, and he shall be broken--but ²⁹by no human hand.

26 The vision of ³⁰the evenings and the mornings that has been told ³¹is true, but ³²seal up the vision, ³³for it refers to many days from now."

27 And ³⁴I, Daniel, was overcome and lay sick for some days. Then I rose and went about the king's business, but I was appalled by the vision ³⁵and did not understand it.
