Daniel 7:9–14

The Ancient of Days

⁹“I kept looking

Until ^athrones were set up,

And the Ancient of Days was seated;

His ^bclothing was like white snow

And the ^chair of His head like pure wool.

His ^dthrone was ¹ablaze with fire,

Its ^ewheels were a burning fire.

¹⁰“A river of ^afire was flowing

And coming out from before Him;

^bThousands upon thousands were attending Him,

And myriads upon myriads were standing before Him;

The ^ccourt sat,

And ^dthe books were opened.

¹¹“Then I kept looking because of the sound of the great boastful words which the horn was speaking; I kept looking until the beast was killed, and its body was destroyed and given to the ^aburning ¹fire.

¹²“As for the rest of the beasts, their ¹dominion was taken away, but an extension of life was given to them for an appointed season of time.

The Son of Man

¹³“I kept looking in the night visions,

And behold, with the clouds of heaven

One like a ^aSon of Man was coming,

And He came up to the Ancient of Days

And came near before Him.

¹⁴“And to Him was given ^1adominion,

Glory, and ^ba kingdom,

^cThat all the peoples, nations, and men of every tongue

Might serve Him.

^dHis ²dominion is an everlasting ³dominion

Which will not be taken away;

^eAnd His kingdom is one

Which will not be destroyed.
