27:008:016 And I heard a man’s voice between
the banks of Ulai, which
called,
and said, Gabriel, make this man to understand the
vision.
27:008:017 So he came near where I stood: and
when he came, I was afraid,
and
fell upon my face: but he said unto me, Understand,
O son
of
man: for at the time of the end shall be the vision.
27:008:018 Now as he was speaking with me, I was in
a deep sleep on my
face
toward the ground: but he touched me, and set
me upright.
27:008:019 And he said, Behold, I will make thee know
what shall be in
the
last end of the indignation: for at the time appointed
the
end
shall be.
27:008:020 The ram which thou sawest having two horns
are the kings of
Media
and Persia.
27:008:021 And the rough goat is the king of Grecia:
and the great horn
that
is between his eyes is the first king.
27:008:022 Now that being broken, whereas four stood
up for it, four
kingdoms
shall stand up out of the nation, but not in his
power.
27:008:023 And in the latter time of their kingdom,
when the
transgressors
are come to the full, a king of fierce
countenance,
and understanding dark sentences, shall stand up.
27:008:024 And his power shall be mighty, but not
by his own power: and
he
shall destroy wonderfully, and shall prosper, and practise,
and
shall destroy the mighty and the holy people.
27:008:025 And through his policy also he shall cause
craft to prosper in
his
hand; and he shall magnify himself in his heart, and
by
peace
shall destroy many: he shall also stand up against
the
Prince
of princes; but he shall be broken without hand.
27:008:026 And the vision of the evening and the morning
which was told
is
true: wherefore shut thou up the vision; for it
shall be
for
many days.
27:008:027 And I Daniel fainted, and was sick certain
days; afterward I
rose
up, and did the king’s business; and I was astonished
at
the
vision, but none understood it.
27:009:001 In the first year of Darius the son of
Ahasuerus, of the seed
of
the Medes, which was made king over the realm of the
Chaldeans;
27:009:002 In the first year of his reign I Daniel
understood by books
the
number of the years, whereof the word of the lord
came to
Jeremiah
the prophet, that he would accomplish seventy years
in
the desolations of Jerusalem.
27:009:003 And I set my face unto the Lord God, to
seek by prayer and
supplications,
with fasting, and sackcloth, and ashes:
27:009:004 And I prayed unto the lord my God,
and made my confession, and
said,
O Lord, the great and dreadful God, keeping the covenant
and
mercy to them that love him, and to them that keep
his
commandments;
