WEBVTT 00:00.700 --> 00:05.240 In the third year of the reign of King Belshazzar, a vision appeared unto me, 00:05.560 --> 00:08.820 even unto me Daniel, after that which appeared unto me at the first. 00:09.280 --> 00:13.560 And I saw in a vision, and it came to pass when I saw, that I was at Shushan in the 00:13.560 --> 00:15.460 palace, which is in the province of Elam. 00:15.940 --> 00:18.960 And I saw in a vision, and I was by the river of Ulai. 00:19.420 --> 00:24.640 Then I lifted up mine eyes, and saw, and behold, there stood before the river a 00:24.640 --> 00:30.700 ram which had two horns, and the two horns were high, but one was higher than the 00:30.700 --> 00:32.800 other, and the higher came up last. 00:33.360 --> 00:37.480 I saw the ram pushing westward, and northward, and southward, so that no 00:37.480 --> 00:41.020 beasts might stand before him, neither was there any that could deliver 00:41.020 --> 00:41.820 out of his hand. 00:42.340 --> 00:45.260 But he did according to his will, and became great. 00:45.840 --> 00:50.740 And as I was considering, behold, an he-goat came from the west on the face 00:50.740 --> 00:53.120 of the whole earth, and touched not the ground. 00:53.920 --> 00:56.820 And the goat had a notable horn between his eyes. 00:56.820 --> 01:01.020 And he came to the ram that had two horns, which I had seen standing before the 01:01.020 --> 01:04.040 river, and ran unto him in the fury of his power. 01:04.540 --> 01:09.200 And I saw him come close unto the ram, and he was moved with collar against him, 01:09.420 --> 01:11.820 and smote the ram, and break his two horns. 01:12.540 --> 01:17.100 And there was no power in the ram to stand before him, but he cast him down to the 01:17.100 --> 01:21.360 ground, and stamped upon him, and there was none that could deliver the ram out of 01:21.360 --> 01:21.820 his hand. 01:22.800 --> 01:28.660 Therefore the he-goat waxed very great, and when he was strong, the great horn was 01:28.660 --> 01:33.280 broken, and for it came up four notable ones toward the four winds of heaven. 01:33.960 --> 01:38.780 And out of one of them came forth a little horn, which waxed exceeding great toward 01:38.780 --> 01:41.960 the south, and toward the east, and toward the pleasant land. 01:42.420 --> 01:47.880 And it waxed great even to the host of heaven, and it cast down some of the host 01:47.880 --> 01:50.720 and of the stars to the ground, and stamped upon them. 01:51.420 --> 01:56.880 Yea, he magnified himself even to the prince of the host, and by him the daily 01:56.880 --> 02:01.120 sacrifice was taken away, and the place of his sanctuary was cast down. 02:01.480 --> 02:04.840 And an host was given him against the daily sacrifice by reason of 02:04.840 --> 02:09.300 transgression, and it cast down the truth to the ground, and it practiced and 02:09.300 --> 02:09.960 prospered. 02:10.580 --> 02:14.900 Then I heard one saint speaking, and another saint said unto that certain 02:14.900 --> 02:19.840 saint which spake, How long shall be the vision concerning the daily sacrifice and 02:19.840 --> 02:23.380 the transgression of desolation to give both the sanctuary and the host to be 02:23.380 --> 02:24.120 trodden under foot? 02:24.120 --> 02:28.800 And he said unto me, Unto two thousand and three hundred days. 02:29.540 --> 02:31.620 Then shall the sanctuary be cleansed. 02:31.860 --> 02:35.860 And it came to pass when I, even I, Daniel, had seen the vision and sought for 02:35.860 --> 02:40.040 the meaning, then, behold, there stood before me as the appearance of a man. 02:40.540 --> 02:44.340 And I heard a man's voice between the banks of Uli, which called and said, 02:44.840 --> 02:47.980 Gabriel, make this man to understand the vision. 02:48.260 --> 02:52.560 So he came near where I stood, and when he came I was afraid and fell 02:52.560 --> 02:53.320 upon my face. 02:53.320 --> 02:58.580 But he said unto me, Understand, O son of man, for at the time of the end 02:58.580 --> 02:59.520 shall be the vision. 03:00.140 --> 03:03.380 Now as he was speaking with me, I was in a deep sleep on my face toward 03:03.380 --> 03:06.220 the ground, but he touched me and set me upright. 03:06.880 --> 03:12.120 And he said, Behold, I will make thee know what shall be in the last end of the 03:12.120 --> 03:15.640 indignation, for at the time appointed the end shall be. 03:16.020 --> 03:20.480 The ram which thou sawest having two horns are the kings of Media and Persia, 03:20.860 --> 03:25.200 and the rough goat is the king of Grisha, and the great horn that is between his 03:25.200 --> 03:26.620 eyes is the first king. 03:27.280 --> 03:32.380 Now that being broken, whereas four stood up for it, four kingdoms shall stand up 03:32.380 --> 03:34.520 out of the nation, but not in his power. 03:35.260 --> 03:38.540 And in the latter time of their kingdom, when the transgressors are come to the 03:38.540 --> 03:44.340 full, a king of fierce countenance and understanding dark sentences shall stand 03:44.340 --> 03:50.320 up, and his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power, and he shall 03:50.320 --> 03:55.640 destroy wonderfully, and shall prosper and practice, and shall destroy the mighty and 03:55.640 --> 03:56.420 the holy people. 03:57.100 --> 04:02.460 And through his policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand, and he shall 04:02.460 --> 04:06.320 magnify himself in his heart, and by peace shall destroy many. 04:07.100 --> 04:11.440 He shall also stand up against the prince of princes, but he shall be broken without 04:11.440 --> 04:11.860 hand. 04:12.420 --> 04:15.320 And the vision of the evening and the morning which was told is true. 04:16.020 --> 04:19.820 Wherefore shut thou up the vision, for it shall be for many days. 04:20.380 --> 04:23.120 And I Daniel fainted and was sick certain days. 04:23.940 --> 04:27.840 Afterward I rose up and did the king's business, and I was astonished at the 04:27.840 --> 04:29.660 vision, but none understood it.
