Not long after his rule ends, his kingdom will be broken up. It will be divided up into four parts. His children will not receive it when he dies. And it will not be as strong as his kingdom. It will be pulled up by the roots. And it will be given to others.

他兴起的时候，他的国必破裂，向天的四方分开，却不归他的后裔，治国的权势也都不及他；因为他的国必被拔出，归与他后裔之外的人。

But as soon as he is established, his kingdom will be broken up and divided to the four winds of heaven, but not to his descendants; it will not be the same kingdom that he ruled, because his kingdom will be uprooted and will go to others besides them.

The goat became very great. But when its power was at its greatest, the goat’s large horn was broken off. In its place four large horns grew up toward the four winds of heaven.

Four horns took the horn’s place when it was broken off. They stand for four kingdoms that will come from his nation. But those kingdoms will not be as powerful as his.

But what if one of those nations does not listen? Then you can be sure of this. I will pull it up by the roots and destroy it,” announces the Lord.

But after I pull up those nations, I will give my tender love to them again. I will bring all of them back to their own lands. I will take all of them back to their own countries.

Daniel said,“ I had a vision at night. I looked up and saw the four winds of heaven. They were stirring up the Mediterranean Sea.

“ I thought about the horns. Then I saw another horn. It was a little one. It grew up among the other horns. Three of the first horns were pulled up by their roots to make room for it. The little horn had eyes like the eyes of a human being. Its mouth was always bragging.

Suppose I announce that something will happen to a nation or kingdom. Suppose I announce that it will be pulled up by the roots. And I announce that it will be torn down and destroyed.

People are only shadows as they go here and there. They rush around, but it doesn’t mean anything. They pile up wealth, but they don’t know who will finally get it.

I hated everything I had worked for on earth. I’ll have to leave all of it to someone who lives after me.And who knows whether that person will be wise or foolish? Either way, they’ll take over everything on earth I’ve worked so hard for. That doesn’t have any meaning either.

Jesus knew what they were thinking. So he said to them,“ Every kingdom that fights against itself will be destroyed. Every city or family that is divided against itself will not stand.

But here is what the Lord has told me to say to you, Baruch.‘ The Lord says,“ I will destroy what I have built up. I will pull up by the roots what I have planted. I will do this throughout the earth.

“ But God said to him,‘ You foolish man! Tonight I will take your life away from you. Then who will get what you have prepared for yourself?’

Those who are evil are happy for only a short time. The joy of ungodly people lasts only for a moment.Their pride might reach all the way up to the heavens. Their heads might touch the clouds.But they will disappear forever, like the waste from their own bodies. Anyone who has seen them will say,‘ Where did they go?’

I saw a mean and sinful person. He was doing well, like a green tree in its own land.But he soon passed away and was gone. Even though I looked for him, I couldn’t find him.

“ After that, I saw another animal. It looked like a leopard. On its back were four wings like the wings of a bird. The animal I saw had four heads. And it was given authority to rule.

There is a valley where dead bodies and ashes are thrown. That whole valley will be holy to me. The side of the Kidron Valley east of the city will be holy to me. It will be holy all the way to the corner of the Horse Gate. The city will never again be pulled up by the roots. It will never be destroyed.”

A man lived all by himself. He didn’t have any sons or brothers. His hard work never ended. But he wasn’t happy with what he had.“ Who am I working so hard for?” he asked.“ Why don’t I get the things I enjoy?” That doesn’t have any meaning either. In fact, it’s a very bad deal!

They trust in their wealth. They brag about how rich they are.No one can pay for the life of anyone else. No one can give God what that would cost.The price for a life is very high. No payment is ever enough.No one can pay enough to live forever and not rot in the grave.Everyone can see that even wise people die. People who are foolish and who have no sense also pass away. All of them leave their wealth to others.Their tombs will remain their houses forever. Their graves will be their homes for all time to come. Naming lands after themselves won’t help either.Even though people may be very rich, they don’t live on and on. They are like the animals. They die.

It troubled me until I entered God’s temple. Then I understood what will finally happen to bad people.God, I’m sure you will make them slip and fall. You will throw them down and destroy them.It will happen very suddenly. A terrible death will take them away completely.A dream goes away when a person wakes up. Lord, it will be like that when you rise up. It will be as if those people were only a dream.
