Daniel 7:20–26

²⁰I also wanted to know about the ten horns^a on its head and about the other horn that came up, before which three fell—the horn that had eyes, and a mouth that spoke arrogantly,^b and that looked bigger than the others. ²¹As I was watching, this horn waged war^c against the holy ones and was prevailing over them ²²until the Ancient of Days arrived and a judgment^d was given in favor of the holy ones of the Most High, for the time had come, and the holy ones took possession of the kingdom.

²³“This is what he said: ‘The fourth beast will be a fourth kingdom on the earth, different from all the other kingdoms. It will devour the whole earth, trample it down, and crush it. ²⁴The ten horns^e are ten kings who will rise from this kingdom. Another king, different from the previous ones, will rise after them and subdue three kings. ²⁵He will speak words against the Most High^f and oppress^B the holy ones^g of the Most High. He will intend to change religious festivals^C and laws,^h and the holy ones will be handed over to him for a time, times, and half a time.^{Di 26}But the court will convene,^j and his dominion will be taken away, to be completely destroyed forever.^k
