Then I stood on the sand of the sea. And I saw a beast rising up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and on his horns ten crowns, and on his heads a blasphemous name.

‘ Those great beasts, which are four, are four kings which arise out of the earth.

The first was like a lion, and had eagle’s wings. I watched till its wings were plucked off; and it was lifted up from the earth and made to stand on two feet like a man, and a man’s heart was given to it.“ And suddenly another beast, a second, like a bear. It was raised up on one side, and had three ribs in its mouth between its teeth. And they said thus to it:‘ Arise, devour much flesh!’“ After this I looked, and there was another, like a leopard, which had on its back four wings of a bird. The beast also had four heads, and dominion was given to it.“ After this I saw in the night visions, and behold, a fourth beast, dreadful and terrible, exceedingly strong. It had huge iron teeth; it was devouring, breaking in pieces, and trampling the residue with its feet. It was different from all the beasts that were before it, and it had ten horns.I was considering the horns, and there was another horn, a little one, coming up among them, before whom three of the first horns were plucked out by the roots. And there, in this horn, were eyes like the eyes of a man, and a mouth speaking pompous words.

Then I turned and raised my eyes and looked, and behold, four chariots were coming from between two mountains, and the mountains were mountains of bronze.With the first chariot were red horses, with the second chariot black horses,with the third chariot white horses, and with the fourth chariot dappled horses— strong steeds.Then I answered and said to the angel who talked with me,“ What are these, my Lord?”And the angel answered and said to me,“ These are four spirits of heaven, who go out from their station before the Lord of all the earth.The one with the black horses is going to the north country, the white are going after them, and the dappled are going toward the south country.”Then the strong steeds went out, eager to go, that they might walk to and fro throughout the earth. And He said,“ Go, walk to and fro throughout the earth.” So they walked to and fro throughout the earth.And He called to me, and spoke to me, saying,“ See, those who go toward the north country have given rest to My Spirit in the north country.”

She brought up one of her cubs, And he became a young lion; He learned to catch prey, And he devoured men.The nations also heard of him; He was trapped in their pit, And they brought him with chains to the land of Egypt.‘ When she saw that she waited, that her hope was lost, She took another of her cubs and made him a young lion.He roved among the lions, And became a young lion; He learned to catch prey; He devoured men.He knew their desolate places, And laid waste their cities; The land with its fullness was desolated By the noise of his roaring.Then the nations set against him from the provinces on every side, And spread their net over him; He was trapped in their pit.

This image’s head was of fine gold, its chest and arms of silver, its belly and thighs of bronze,its legs of iron, its feet partly of iron and partly of clay.

You are more glorious and excellent Than the mountains of prey.

You, O king, are a king of kings. For the God of heaven has given you a kingdom, power, strength, and glory;and wherever the children of men dwell, or the beasts of the field and the birds of the heaven, He has given them into your hand, and has made you ruler over them all— you are this head of gold.But after you shall arise another kingdom inferior to yours; then another, a third kingdom of bronze, which shall rule over all the earth.And the fourth kingdom shall be as strong as iron, inasmuch as iron breaks in pieces and shatters everything; and like iron that crushes, that kingdom will break in pieces and crush all the others.
