 : 1 .  In the third <7969 shalowsh > year <8141 shaneh > of the 
reign <4438 malkuwth > of Jehoiakim <3079 Y@howyaqiym > king 
<4428 melek > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > came <0935 bow> > 
Nebuchadnezzar <5019 N@buwkadne>tstsar > king <4428 melek > of 
Babylon <0894 Babel > unto Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > ,  and 
besieged <6696 tsuwr > it . 

 : 2 And the Lord <0136 >Adonay > gave <5414 nathan > Jehoiakim 
<3079 Y@howyaqiym > king <4428 melek > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > 
into his hand <3027 yad > ,  with part <7117 q@tsath > of the 
vessels <3627 k@liy > of the house <1004 bayith > of God <0430 
>elohiym > : which he carried <0935 bow> > into the land <0776 
>erets > of Shinar <8152 Shin<ar > to the house <1004 bayith > 
of his god <0430 >elohiym > ;  and he brought <0935 bow> > the 
vessels <3627 k@liy > into the treasure <0214 >owtsar > house 
<1004 bayith > of his god <0430 >elohiym > . 

 : 3 And the king <4428 melek > spake <0559 >amar > unto 
Ashpenaz <0828 >Ashp@naz > the master <7227 rab > of his eunuchs 
<5631 cariyc > ,  that he should bring <0935 bow> >  [ certain ] 
 of the children <1121 ben > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > ,  and 
of the king s <4410 m@luwkah > seed <2233 zera< > ,  and of the 
princes <6579 partam > ; 

 : 4 Children <3206 yeled > in whom  [ was ]  no <0369 >ayin > 
blemish <3971 m>uwm > ,  but well <2896 towb > favoured <4758 
mar>eh > ,  and skilful <7919 sakal > in all <3605 kol > wisdom 
<2451 chokmah > ,  and cunning <3045 yada< > in knowledge <1847 
da<ath > ,  and understanding <0995 biyn > science <4093 madda< 
> ,  and such as  [ had ]  ability <3581 koach > in them to 
stand <5975 <amad > in the king s <4428 melek > palace <1964 
heykal > ,  and whom they might teach <3925 lamad > the learning 
<5612 cepher > and the tongue <3956 lashown > of the Chaldeans 
<3779 Kasday > . 

 : 5 And the king <4428 melek > appointed <4487 manah > them a 
daily <3117 yowm > provision <1697 dabar > of the king s <4428 
melek > meat <6598 pathbag > ,  and of the wine <3196 yayin > 
which he drank <4960 mishteh > : so nourishing <1431 gadal > 
them three <7969 shalowsh > years <8141 shaneh > ,  that at the 
end <7117 q@tsath > thereof they might stand <5975 <amad > 
before <6440 paniym > the king <4428 melek > . 

 : 6 Now among these <1992 hem > were of the children <1121 ben 
> of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > ,  Daniel <1840 Daniye>l > ,  
Hananiah <2608 Chananyah > ,  Mishael <4332 Miysha>el > ,  and 
Azariah <5838 <Azaryah > : 

 : 7 Unto whom <1992 hem > the prince <8269 sar > of the eunuchs 
<5631 cariyc > gave <7760 suwm > names <8034 shem > : for he 
gave <7760 suwm > unto Daniel <1840 Daniye>l >  [ the name <8034 
shem > ]  of Belteshazzar <1095 Belt@sha>tstsar > ;  and to 
Hananiah <2608 Chananyah > ,  of Shadrach <7714 Shadrak > ;  and 
to Mishael <4332 Miysha>el > ,  of Meshach <4335 Meyshak > ;  
and to Azariah <5838 <Azaryah > ,  of Abednego <5664 <Abed N@gow 
> . 

 : 8 .  But Daniel <1840 Daniye>l > purposed <7760 suwm > in his 
heart <3820 leb > that he would not defile <1351 ga>al > himself 
with the portion <6598 pathbag > of the king s <4428 melek > 
meat <6598 pathbag > ,  nor with the wine <3196 yayin > which he 
drank <4960 mishteh > : therefore he requested <1245 baqash > of 
the prince <8269 sar > of the eunuchs <5631 cariyc > that he 
might not defile <1351 ga>al > himself . 

 : 9 Now God <0430 >elohiym > had brought <5414 nathan > Daniel 
<1840 Daniye>l > into favour <2617 checed > and tender love with 
the prince <8269 sar > of the eunuchs <5631 cariyc > . 

 : 10 And the prince <8269 sar > of the eunuchs <5631 cariyc > 
said <0559 >amar > unto Daniel <1840 Daniye>l > ,  I fear <3373 
yare> > my lord <0113 >adown > the king <4428 melek > ,  who 
<0834 >aher > hath appointed <4487 manah > your meat <3978 
ma>akal > and your drink <4960 mishteh > : for why <4100 mah > 
should he see <7200 ra>ah > your faces <6440 paniym > worse 
<2196 za<aph > liking than <4480 min > the children <3206 yeled 
> which <0834 >aher >  [ are ]  of your sort <1524 giyl > ?  
then shall ye make  [ me ]  endanger <2325 chuwb > my head <7218 
ro>sh > to the king <4428 melek > . 

 : 11 Then said <0559 >amar > Daniel <1840 Daniye>l > to Melzar 
<4453 meltsar > ,  whom <0834 >aher > the prince <8269 sar > of 
the eunuchs <5631 cariyc > had set <4487 manah > over <5921 <al 
> Daniel <1840 Daniye>l > ,  Hananiah <2608 Chananyah > ,  
Mishael <4332 Miysha>el > ,  and Azariah <5838 <Azaryah > , 

 : 12 Prove <5254 nacah > thy servants <5650 <ebed > ,  I 
beseech <4994 na> > thee ,  ten <6235 <eser > days <3117 yowm > ;
  and let them give <5414 nathan > us pulse <2235 zeroa< > to 
eat <0398 >akal > ,  and water <4325 mayim > to drink <8354 
shathah > . 

 : 13 Then let our countenances <4758 mar>eh > be looked <7200 
ra>ah > upon before <6440 paniym > thee ,  and the countenance 
<4758 mar>eh > of the children <3206 yeled > that eat <0398 
>akal > of the portion <6598 pathbag > of the king s <4428 melek 
> meat <6598 pathbag > : and as thou seest <7200 ra>ah > ,  deal 
<6213 <asah > with thy servants <5650 <ebed > . 

 : 14 So he consented <8085 shama< > to them in this <2088 zeh > 
matter <1697 dabar > ,  and proved <5254 nacah > them ten <6235 
<eser > days <3117 yowm > . 

 : 15 And at the end <7117 q@tsath > of ten <6235 <eser > days 
<3117 yowm > their countenances <4758 mar>eh > appeared <7200 
ra>ah > fairer <2896 towb > and fatter <1277 bariy> > in flesh 
<1320 basar > than <4480 min > all <3605 kol > the children 
<3206 yeled > which did eat <0398 >akal > the portion <6598 
pathbag > of the king s <4428 melek > meat <6598 pathbag > . 

 : 16 Thus Melzar <4453 meltsar > took <5375 nasa> > away the 
portion <6598 pathbag > of their meat <6598 pathbag > ,  and the 
wine <3196 yayin > that they should drink <4960 mishteh > ;  and 
gave <5414 nathan > them pulse <2235 zeroa< > . 

 : 17 .  As for these <0428 >el - leh > four <0702 >arba< > 
children <3206 yeled > ,  God <0430 >elohiym > gave <5414 nathan 
> them knowledge <4093 madda< > and skill <7919 sakal > in all 
<3605 kol > learning <5612 cepher > and wisdom <2451 chokmah > : 
and Daniel <1840 Daniye>l > had understanding <0995 biyn > in 
all <3605 kol > visions <2377 chazown > and dreams <2472 chalowm 
> . 

 : 18 Now at the end <7117 q@tsath > of the days <3117 yowm > 
that the king <4428 melek > had said <0559 >amar > he should 
bring <0935 bow> > them in ,  then the prince <8269 sar > of the 
eunuchs <5631 cariyc > brought <0935 bow> > them in before <6440 
paniym > Nebuchadnezzar <5019 N@buwkadne>tstsar > . 

 : 19 And the king <4428 melek > communed <1696 dabar > with 
them ;  and among them all <3605 kol > was found <4672 matsa> > 
none <3808 lo> > like Daniel <1840 Daniye>l > ,  Hananiah <2608 
Chananyah > ,  Mishael <4332 Miysha>el > ,  and Azariah <5838 
<Azaryah > : therefore stood <5975 <amad > they before <6440 
paniym > the king <4428 melek > . 

 : 20 And in all <3605 kol > matters <1697 dabar > of wisdom 
<2451 chokmah >  [ and ]  understanding <0998 biynah > ,  that 
the king <4428 melek > enquired <1245 baqash > of them ,  he 
found <4672 matsa> > them ten <6235 <eser > times better <3027 
yad > than <5921 <al > all <3605 kol > the magicians <2748 
chartom >  [ and ]  astrologers <0825 >ashshaph > that  [ were ] 
 in all <3605 kol > his realm <4438 malkuwth > . 

 : 21 And Daniel <1840 Daniye>l > continued <1961 hayah >  [ 
even ]  unto the first <0259 >echad > year <8141 shaneh > of 
king <4428 melek > Cyrus <3566 Kowresh > . 

 : Daniel 2

 : 1 .  And in the second <8147 sh@nayim > year <8141 shaneh > 
of the reign <4438 malkuwth > of Nebuchadnezzar <5019 
N@buwkadne>tstsar > Nebuchadnezzar <5019 N@buwkadne>tstsar > 
dreamed <2492 chalam > dreams <2472 chalowm > ,  wherewith his 
spirit <7307 ruwach > was troubled <6470 pa<am > ,  and his 
sleep <8142 shehah > brake <1961 hayah > from him . 

 : 2 Then the king <4428 melek > commanded <0559 >amar > to call 
<7121 qara> > the magicians <2748 chartom > ,  and the 
astrologers <0825 >ashshaph > ,  and the sorcerers <3784 kashaph 
> ,  and the Chaldeans <3779 Kasday > ,  for to shew <5046 nagad 
> the king <4428 melek > his dreams <2472 chalowm > .  So they 
came <0935 bow> > and stood <5975 <amad > before <6440 paniym > 
the king <4428 melek > . 

 : 3 And the king <4428 melek > said <0559 >amar > unto them ,  
I have dreamed <2492 chalam > a dream <2472 chalowm > ,  and my 
spirit <7307 ruwach > was troubled <6470 pa<am > to know <3045 
yada< > the dream <2472 chalowm > . 

 : 4 Then spake <1696 dabar > the Chaldeans <3779 Kasday > to 
the king <4428 melek > in Syriack <0762 >Aramiyth > ,  O king 
<4430 melek > ,  live <2418 chaya> > for ever <5957 <alam > : 
tell <0560 >amar > thy servants <5649 <abad > the dream <2493 
chelem > ,  and we will shew <2324 chava> > the interpretation 
<6591 p@shar > . 

 : 5 The king <4430 melek > answered <6032 <anah > and said 
<0560 >amar > to the Chaldeans <3779 Kasday > ,  The thing <4406 
millah > is gone <0230 >azad > from me : if <2006 hen > ye will 
not make known <3046 y@da< > unto me the dream <2493 chelem > ,  
with the interpretation <6591 p@shar > thereof ,  ye shall be 
cut <5648 <abad > in pieces <1917 haddam > ,  and your houses 
<1005 bayith > shall be made <7761 suwm > a dunghill <5122 
n@valuw > . 

 : 6 But if <2006 hen > ye shew <2324 chava> > the dream <2493 
chelem > ,  and the interpretation <6591 p@shar > thereof ,  ye 
shall receive <6902 q@bal > of me gifts <4978 matt@na> > and 
rewards <5023 n@bizbah > and great <7690 saggiy> > honour <3367 
y@qar > : therefore <2006 hen > shew <2324 chava> > me the dream 
<2493 chelem > ,  and the interpretation <6591 p@shar > thereof .
 

 : 7 They answered <6032 <anah > again <8579 tinyanuwth > and 
said <0560 >amar > ,  Let the king <4430 melek > tell <0560 
>amar > his servants <5649 <abad > the dream <2493 chelem > ,  
and we will shew <2324 chava> > the interpretation <6591 p@shar 
> of it . 

 : 8 The king <4430 melek > answered <6032 <anah > and said 
<0560 >amar > ,  I know <3046 y@da< > of certainty <3330 
yatstsiyb > that ye would gain <2084 z@ban > the time <5732 
<iddan > ,  because ye see <2370 chaza> > the thing <4406 millah 
> is gone <0230 >azad > from me . 

 : 9 But if <2006 hen > ye will not make known <3046 y@da< > 
unto me the dream <2493 chelem > ,   [ there is but ]  one <2298 
chad > decree <1882 dath > for you : for ye have prepared <2164 
z@man > lying <3538 k@dab > and corrupt <7844 sh@chath > words 
<4406 millah > to speak <0560 >amar > before <6925 qodam > me ,  
till <5704 <ad > the time <5732 <iddan > be changed <8133 sh@na> 
> : therefore <2006 hen > tell <0560 >amar > me the dream <2493 
chelem > ,  and I shall know <3046 y@da< > that ye can shew 
<2324 chava> > me the interpretation <6591 p@shar > thereof . 

 : 10 The Chaldeans <3779 Kasday > answered <6032 <anah > before 
<6925 qodam > the king <4430 melek > ,  and said <0560 >amar > , 
 There is not a man <0606 >enash > upon the earth <3007 
yabbesheth > that can <3202 y@kel > shew <2324 chava> > the king 
s <4430 melek > matter <4406 millah > : therefore  [ there is ]  
no king <4430 melek > ,  lord <7229 rab > ,  nor ruler <7990 
shalliyt > ,   [ that ]  asked <7593 sh@>el > such <1836 den > 
things at any <3606 kol > magician <2749 chartom > ,  or 
astrologer <0826 >ashshaph > ,  or Chaldean <3777 Kesed > . 

 : 11 And  [ it is ]  a rare <3358 yaqqiyr > thing <4406 millah 
> that the king<4430 melek > requireth <7593 sh@>el > ,  and 
there is none <3809 la> > other <0321 >ochoran > that can shew 
<2324 chava> > it before <6925 qodam > the king <4430 melek > ,  
except <3861 lawhen > the gods <0426 >elahh > ,  whose <1768 diy 
> dwelling <4070 m@dowr > is not with flesh <1321 b@sar > . 

 : 12 For this <1836 den > cause the king <4430 melek > was 
angry <1149 b@nac > and very <7690 saggiy> > furious <7108 
q@tsaph > ,  and commanded <0560 >amar > to destroy <7> all 
<3606 kol > the wise <2445 chakkiym >  [ men ]  of Babylon <0895 
Babel > . 

 : 13 And the decree <1882 dath > went <5312 n@phaq > forth 
<5312 n@phaq > that the wise <2445 chakkiym >  [ men ]  should 
be slain <6992 q@tal > ;  and they sought <1158 ba<ah > Daniel 
<1841 Daniye>l > and his fellows <2269 chabar > to be slain 
<6992 q@tal > . 

 : 14 .  Then <0116 >edayin > Daniel <1841 Daniye>l > answered 
<8421 tuwb > with counsel <5843 <eta> > and wisdom <2942 t@<em > 
to Arioch <0746 >Aryowk > the captain <7229 rab > of the king s 
<4430 melek > guard <2877 tabbach > ,  which <1768 diy > was 
gone <5312 n@phaq > forth <5312 n@phaq > to slay <6992 q@tal > 
the wise <2445 chakkiym >  [ men ]  of Babylon <0895 Babel > : 

 : 15 He answered <6032 <anah > and said <0560 >amar > to Arioch 
<0746 >Aryowk > the king s <4430 melek > captain <7990 shalliyt 
> ,  Why  [ is ]  the decree <1882 dath >  [ so ]  hasty <2685 
chatsaph > from the king <4430 melek > ?  Then <0116 >edayin > 
Arioch <0746 >Aryowk > made the thing <4406 millah > known <3046 
y@da< > to Daniel <1841 Daniye>l > . 

 : 16 Then Daniel <1841 Daniye>l > went <5954 <alal > in ,  and 
desired <1156 b@<a> > of the king <4430 melek > that he would 
give <5415 n@than > him time <2166 z@man > ,  and that he would 
shew <2324 chava> > the king <4430 melek > the interpretation 
<6591 p@shar > . 

 : 17 Then <0116 >edayin > Daniel <1841 Daniye>l > went <0236 
>azal > to his house <1005 bayith > ,  and made the thing <4406 
millah > known <3046 y@da< > to Hananiah <2608 Chananyah > ,  
Mishael <4332 Miysha>el > ,  and Azariah <5839 <Azaryah > ,  his 
companions <2269 chabar > : 

 : 18 That they would desire <1156 b@<a> > mercies <7359 r@chem 
> of the God <0426 >elahh > of heaven <8065 shamayin > 
concerning <5922 <al > this <1836 den > secret <7328 raz > ;  
that Daniel <1841 Daniye>l > and his fellows <2269 chabar > 
should not perish <7> with the rest <7606 sh@>ar > of the wise 
<2445 chakkiym >  [ men ]  of Babylon <0895 Babel > . 

 : 19 Then <0116 >edayin > was the secret <7328 raz > revealed 
<1541 g@lah > unto Daniel <1841 Daniye>l > in a night <3916 
leyl@ya> > vision <2376 chezev > .  Then <0116 >edayin > Daniel 
<1841 Daniye>l > blessed <1289 b@rak > the God <0426 >elahh > of 
heaven <8065 shamayin > . 

 : 20 Daniel <1841 Daniye>l > answered <6032 <anah > and said 
<0560 >amar > ,  Blessed <1289 b@rak > be the name <8036 shum > 
of God <0426 >elahh > for ever <5957 <alam > and ever <5957 
<alam > : for wisdom <2452 chokmah > and might <1370 g@buwrah > 
are his : 

 : 21 And he changeth <8133 sh@na> > the times <5732 <iddan > 
and the seasons <2166 z@man > : he removeth <5709 <ada> > kings 
<4430 melek > ,  and setteth <6966 quwm > up kings <4430 melek > 
: he giveth <3052 y@hab > wisdom <2452 chokmah > unto the wise 
<2445 chakkiym > ,  and knowledge <0998 biynah > to them that 
know <3046 y@da< > understanding <0999 biynah > : 

 : 22 He revealeth <1541 g@lah > the deep <5994 <amiyq > and 
secret <5642 c@thar > things : he knoweth <3046 y@da< > what 
<4101 mah >  [ is ]  in the darkness <2816 chashowk > ,  and the 
light <5094 n@hiyr > dwelleth <8271 sh@re> > with him . 

 : 23 I thank <3029 y@da> > thee ,  and praise <7624 sh@bach > 
thee ,  O thou God <0426 >elahh > of my fathers <2> ,  who <1768 
diy > hast given <3052 y@hab > me wisdom <2452 chokmah > and 
might <1370 g@buwrah > ,  and hast made known <3046 y@da< > unto 
me now <3705 k@<an > what <1768 diy > we desired <1156 b@<a> > 
of thee : for thou hast  [ now <3705 k@<an > ]  made known <3046 
y@da< > unto us the king s <4430 melek > matter <4406 millah > . 

 : 24 .  Therefore Daniel <1841 Daniye>l > went <5954 <alal > in 
unto Arioch <0746 >Aryowk > ,  whom <1768 diy > the king <4430 
melek > had ordained <4483 m@na> > to destroy <7> the wise <2445 
chakkiym >  [ men ]  of Babylon <0895 Babel > : he went <0236 
>azal > and said <0560 >amar > thus <3652 ken > unto him ;  
Destroy <7> not the wise <2445 chakkiym >  [ men ]  of Babylon 
<0895 Babel > : bring <5924 <ella> > me in before <6925 qodam > 
the king <4430 melek > ,  and I will shew <2324 chava> > unto 
the king <4430 melek > the interpretation <6591 p@shar > . 

 : 25 Then <0116 >edayin > Arioch <0746 >Aryowk > brought <5954 
<alal > in Daniel <1841 Daniye>l > before <6925 qodam > the king 
<4430 melek > in haste <0927 b@hal > ,  and said <0560 >amar > 
thus <3652 ken > unto him ,  I have found <4672 matsa> > a man 
<1400 g@bar > of the captives of Judah <3061 Y@huwd > ,  that 
will make known <3046 y@da< > unto the king <4430 melek > the 
interpretation <6591 p@shar > . 

 : 26 The king <4430 melek > answered <6032 <anah > and said 
<0560 >amar > to Daniel <1841 Daniye>l > ,  whose <1768 diy > 
name <8036 shum >  [ was ]  Belteshazzar <1096 Belt@sha>tstsar > 
,  Art <0383 >iythay > thou able <3546 k@hal > to make known 
<3046 y@da< > unto me the dream <2493 chelem > which <1768 diy > 
I have seen <2370 chaza> > ,  and the interpretation <6591 
p@shar > thereof ? 

 : 27 Daniel <1841 Daniye>l > answered <6032 <anah > in the 
presence <6925 qodam > of the king <4430 melek > ,  and said

 : 31 .  Thou ,  O king <4430 melek > ,  sawest <2370 chaza> > , 
 and behold <0431 >aluw > a great <7690 saggiy> > image <6755 
tselem > .  This <1797 dikken > great <7229 rab > image <6755

<3493 yattiyr > ,  stood <6966 quwm > before <6903 q@bel > thee ;
  and the form <7299 rev > thereof  [ was ]  terrible <1763 
d@chal > . 

 : 32 This <1931 huw> > image s <6755 tselem > head <7217 re>sh

brass <5174 n@chash > , 

 : 33 His legs <8243 shaq > of iron <6523 parzel > ,  his feet 
<7271 r@gal > part <4481 min > of iron <6523 parzel > and part 
<4481 min > of clay <2635 chacaph > . 

 : 34 Thou sawest <2370 chaza> > till <5704 <ad > that a stone 
<69> was cut <1505 g@zar > out without hands <3028 yad > ,  
which smote <4223 m@cha> > the image <6755 tselem > upon his 
feet <7271 r@gal >  [ that were ]  of iron <6523 parzel > and 
clay <2635 chacaph > ,  and brake <1855 d@qaq > them to pieces . 

 : 35 Then <0116 >edayin > was the iron <6523 parzel > ,  the 
clay <2635 chacaph > ,  the brass <5174 n@chash > ,  the silver 
<3702 k@caph > ,  and the gold <1722 d@hab > ,  broken <1854

 : 36 This <1836 den >  [ is ]  the dream <2493 chelem > ;  and 
we will tell <0560 >amar > the interpretation <6591 p@shar > 
thereof before <6925 qodam > the king <4430 melek > . 

 : 37 Thou ,  O king <4430 melek > ,   [ art ]  a king <4430 
melek > of kings <4430 melek > : for the God <0426 >elahh > of 
heaven <8065 shamayin > hath given <3052 y@hab > thee a kingdom 
<4437 malkuw > ,  power <2632 checen > ,  and strength <8632 
t@qoph > ,  and glory <3367 y@qar > . 

 : 38 And wheresoever the children <1123 ben > of men <0606

field <1251 bar > and the fowls <5776 <owph > of the heaven 
<8065 shamayin > hath he given <3052 y@hab > into thine hand 
<3028 yad > ,  and hath made thee ruler <7981 sh@let > over them 
all <3606 kol > .  Thou  [ art ]  this <1931 huw> > head <7217 
re>sh > of gold <1722 d@hab > . 

 : 39 And after <0870 >athar > thee shall arise <6965 quwm > 
another <0317 >ochoriy > kingdom <4437 malkuw > inferior <0772

t@liythay > kingdom <4437 malkuw > of brass <5174 n@chash > ,  
which <1768 diy > shall bear <7981 sh@let > rule <7981 sh@let > 
over all <3606 kol > the earth <0772 >ara< > . 

 : 40 And the fourth <7244 r@biy<ay > kingdom <4437 malkuw > 
shall be strong <8624 taqqiyph > as iron <6523 parzel > : 
forasmuch as iron <6523 parzel > breaketh <1855 d@qaq > in 
pieces and subdueth <2827 chashal > all <3606 kol >  [ things ]  
: and as iron <6523 parzel > that breaketh <7940 Sakar > all 
<3606 kol > these <0459 >illeyn > ,  shall it break <1854 daqaq

 : 41 And whereas <1768 diy > thou sawest <2370 chaza> > the 
feet <7271 r@gal > and toes <0677 >etsba< > ,  part <4481 min > 
of potters <6353 pechar >  clay <2635 chacaph > ,  and part 
<4481 min > of iron <6523 parzel > ,  the kingdom <4437 malkuw > 
shall be divided <6386 p@lag > ;  but there shall be in it of 
the strength <5326 nitsbah > of the iron <6523 parzel > ,  
forasmuch as thou sawest <2370 chaza> > the iron <6523 parzel > 
mixed <6151 <arab > with miry <2917 tiyn > clay <2635 chacaph > .
 

 : 42 And  [ as ]  the toes <0677 >etsba< > of the feet <7271 
r@gal >  [ were ]  part <4481 min > of iron <6523 parzel > ,  
and part <4481 min > of clay <2635 chacaph > ,   [ so ]  the 
kingdom <4437 malkuw > shall be partly <7118 q@tsath > strong 
<8624 taqqiyph > ,  and partly <7118 q@tsath > broken <8406 
t@bar > . 

 : 43 And whereas <1768 diy > thou sawest <2370 chaza> > iron 
<6523 parzel > mixed <6151 <arab > with miry <2917 tiyn > clay 
<2635 chacaph > ,  they shall mingle <6151 <arab > themselves 
with the seed <2234 z@ra< > of men <0606 >enash > : but they 
shall not cleave <1693 d@baq > one <1836 den > to another <1836 
den > ,  even <1887 he> > as iron <6523 parzel > is not mixed 
<6151 <arab > with clay <2635 chacaph > . 

 : 44 And in the days <3118 yowm > of these <0581 >innuwn > 
kings <4430 melek > shall the God <0426 >elahh > of heaven <8065 
shamayin > set <6966 quwm > up a kingdom <4437 malkuw > ,  which 
<1768 diy > shall never be destroyed <2255 chabal > : and the 
kingdom <4437 malkuw > shall not be left <7662 sh@baq > to other 
<0321 >ochoran > people <5972 <am > ,   [ but ]  it shall break 
<1854 daqaq > in pieces and consume <5487 cuwph > all <3606 kol 
> these <0459 >illeyn > kingdoms <4437 malkuw > ,  and it shall 
stand <6966 quwm > for ever <5957 <alam > . 

 : 45 Forasmuch as thou sawest <2370 chaza> > that the stone 
<69> was cut <1505 g@zar > out of the mountain <2906 tuwr > 
without hands <3028 yad > ,  and that it brake <1855 d@qaq > in 
pieces the iron <6523 parzel > ,  the brass <5174 n@chash > ,  
the clay <2635 chacaph > ,  the silver <3702 k@caph > ,  and the 
gold <1722 d@hab > ;  the great <7229 rab > God <0426 >elahh > 
hath made known <3046 y@da< > to the king <4430 melek > what 
<4101 mah > shall come <1934 hava> > to pass hereafter : and the 
dream <2493 chelem >  [ is ]  certain <3330 yatstsiyb > ,  and 
the interpretation <6591 p@shar > thereof sure <0546 >omnah > . 

 : 46 .  Then <0116 >edayin > the king <4430 melek > 
Nebuchadnezzar <5020 N@buwkadnetstsar > fell <5308 n@phal > upon 
his face <0600 >anaph > ,  and worshipped <5457 c@gid > Daniel 
<1841 Daniye>l > ,  and commanded <0560 >amar > that they should 
offer <5260 n@cak > an oblation <8641 t@ruwmah > and sweet <5208 
niychowach > odours <5208 niychowach > unto him . 

 : 47 The king <4430 melek > answered <6032 <anah > unto Daniel 
<1841 Daniye>l > ,  and said <0560 >amar > ,  Of a truth <7187 
q@showt >  [ it is ]  ,  that your God <0426 >elahh >  [ is ]  a

y@kel > reveal <1541 g@lah > this <1836 den > secret <7328 raz > 
. 

 : 48 Then <0116 >edayin > the king <4430 melek > made <7236 
r@bah > Daniel <1841 Daniye>l > a great <7236 r@bah > man ,  and 
gave <3052 y@hab > him many <7690 saggiy> > great <7260 rabrab > 
gifts <4978 matt@na> > ,  and made him ruler <7981 sh@let > over 
<5922 <al > the whole <3606 kol > province <4083 m@diynah > of 
Babylon <0895 Babel > ,  and chief <7229 rab > of the governors 
<5461 cagan > over <5922 <al > all <3606 kol > the wise <2445 
chakkiym >  [ men ]  of Babylon <0895 Babel > . 

 : 49 Then Daniel <1841 Daniye>l > requested <1156 b@<a> > of 
the king <4430 melek > ,  and he set <4483 m@na> > Shadrach 
<7715 Shadrak > ,  Meshach <4336 Meyshak > ,  and Abednego <5665 
<Abed N@gow> > ,  over <5922 <al > the affairs <5673 <abiydah > 
of the province <4083 m@diynah > of Babylon <0895 Babel > : but 
Daniel <1841 Daniye>l >  [ sat ]  in the gate <8651 t@ra< > of 
the king <4430 melek > . 

 : Daniel 3

 : 1 .  Nebuchadnezzar <5020 N@buwkadnetstsar > the king <4430 
melek > made <5648 <abad > an image <6755 tselem > of gold <1722

threescore <8361 shittiyn > cubits <0521 >ammah > ,   [ and ]  
the breadth <6613 p@thay > thereof six <8353 sheth > cubits

biq<a> > of Dura <1757 Duwra> > ,  in the province <4083 
m@diynah > of Babylon <0895 Babel > . 

 : 2 Then Nebuchadnezzar <5020 N@buwkadnetstsar > the king <4430 
melek > sent <7972 sh@lach > to gather <3673 kanash > together 
the princes <0324 >achashdarpan > ,  the governors <5461 cagan >

Nebuchadnezzar <5020 N@buwkadnetstsar > the king <4430 melek > 
had set <6966 quwm > up . 

 : 3 Then <0116 >edayin > the princes <0324 >achashdarpan > ,  
the governors <5461 cagan > ,  and captains <6347 pechah > ,  
the judges <0148 >adargazer > ,  the treasurers <1411 g@dabar > ,

<2429 chayil > ,  To you it is commanded <0560 >amar > ,  O 
people <5972 <am > ,  nations <0524 >ummah > ,  and languages

 : 12 There are certain <1400 g@bar > Jews <3064 Y@huwdiy > whom 
<3487 yath > thou hast set <4483 m@na> > over <5921 <al > the

 : 14 Nebuchadnezzar <5020 N@buwkadnetstsar > spake <6032 <anah

 : 16 Shadrach <7715 Shadrak > ,  Meshach <4336 Meyshak > ,  and 
Abednego <5665 <Abed N@gow> > ,  answered <6032 <anah > and said

deliver <7804 sh@zab >  [ us ]  out of thine hand <3028 yad > ,  
O king <4430 melek > . 

 : 18 But if not ,  be it known <3046 y@da< > unto thee ,  O 
king <4430 melek > ,  that we will not serve <6399 p@lach > thy 
gods <0426 >elahh > ,  nor <3809 la> > worship <5457 c@gid > the 
golden <1722 d@hab > image <6755 tselem > which <1768 diy > thou 
hast set <6966 quwm > up . 

 : 19 .  Then <0116 >edayin > was Nebuchadnezzar <5020 
N@buwkadnetstsar > full <4391 m@la> > of fury <2528 chema> > ,  
and the form <6755 tselem > of his visage <0600 >anaph > was 
changed <8133 sh@na> > against <5922 <al > Shadrach <7715 
Shadrak > ,  Meshach <4336 Meyshak > ,  and Abednego <5665 <Abed 
N@gow> > :  [ therefore ]  he spake <6032 <anah > ,  and 
commanded <0560 >amar > that they should heat <0228 >aza> > the 
furnace <0861 >attuwn > one <2298 chad > seven <7655 shib<ah > 
times more <5922 <al > than <1768 diy > it was wont <2370 chaza>

 : 20 And he commanded <0560 >amar > the most <2429 chayil > 
mighty <1401 gibbar > men <1400 g@bar > that  [ were ]  in his 
army <2429 chayil > to bind <3729 k@phath > Shadrach <7715 
Shadrak > ,  Meshach <4336 Meyshak > ,  and Abednego <5665 <Abed 
N@gow> > ,   [ and ]  to cast <7412 r@mah >  [ them ]  into the 
burning <3345 y@qad > fiery <5135 nuwr > furnace <0861 >attuwn > 
. 

 : 21 Then <0116 >edayin > these <0479 >illek > men <1400 g@bar

their hosen <6361 pattiysh > ,  and their hats <3737 karb@la< > ,
  and their  [ other ]  garments <3831 l@buwsh > ,  and were 
cast <7412 r@mah > into the midst <1459 gav > of the burning 
<3345 y@qad > fiery <5135 nuwr > furnace <0861 >attuwn > . 

 : 22 Therefore because the king s <4430 melek > commandment 
<4406 millah > was urgent <2685 chatsaph > ,  and the furnace 
<0861 >attuwn > exceeding <2493 chelem > hot <0228 >aza> > ,  
the flame <7631 s@biyb > of the fire <5135 nuwr > slew <6992 
q@tal > those <0479 >illek > men <1400 g@bar > that took <5267 
n@caq > up Shadrach <7715 Shadrak > ,  Meshach <4336 Meyshak > , 
 and Abednego <5665 <Abed N@gow> > . 

 : 23 And these <0479 >illek > three <8532 t@lath > men <1400 
g@bar > ,  Shadrach <7715 Shadrak > ,  Meshach <4336 Meyshak > , 
 and Abednego <5665 <Abed N@gow> > ,  fell <5308 n@phal > down 
bound <3729 k@phath > into the midst <1459 gav > of the burning 
<3345 y@qad > fiery <5135 nuwr > furnace <0861 >attuwn > . 

 : 24 Then <0116 >edayin > Nebuchadnezzar <5020 N@buwkadnetstsar 
> the king <4430 melek > was astonied <8429 t@vahh > ,  and rose 
<6965 quwm > up in haste <0927 b@hal > ,   [ and ]  spake <6032 
<anah > ,  and said <0560 >amar > unto his counsellors <1907 
haddabar > ,  Did not we cast <7412 r@mah > three <8532 t@lath > 
men <1400 g@bar > bound <3729 k@phath > into the midst <1459 gav

said <0560 >amar > unto the king <4430 melek > ,  True <3330 
yatstsiyb > ,  O king <4430 melek > . 

 : 25 He answered <6032 <anah > and said <0560 >amar > ,  Lo 
<1888 he> > ,  I see <2370 chaza> > four <0703 >arba< > men 
<1400 g@bar > loose <8271 sh@re> > ,  walking <1981 halak > in 
the midst <1459 gav > of the fire <5135 nuwr > ,  and they have 
<0383 >iythay > no <3809 la> > hurt <2257 chabal > ;  and the 
form <7299 rev > of the fourth <7244 r@biy<ay > is like <1821 
d@mah > the Son <1247 bar > of God <0426 >elahh > . 

 : 26 Then <0116 >edayin > Nebuchadnezzar <5020 N@buwkadnetstsar

>attuwn > ,   [ and ]  spake <6032 <anah > ,  and said <0560 
>amar > ,  Shadrach <7715 Shadrak > ,  Meshach <4336 Meyshak > , 
 and Abednego <5665 <Abed N@gow> > ,  ye servants <5649 <abad > 
of the most <5943 <illay > high <5943 <illay > God <0426 >elahh

Shadrak > ,  Meshach <4336 Meyshak > ,  and Abednego <5665 <Abed 
N@gow> > ,  came <5312 n@phaq > forth <5312 n@phaq > of the 
midst <1459 gav > of the fire <5135 nuwr > . 

 : 27 And the princes <0324 >achashdarpan > ,  governors <5461 
cagan > ,  and captains <6347 pechah > ,  and the king s <4430 
melek > counsellors <1907 haddabar > ,  being gathered <3673 
kanash > together ,  saw <2370 chaza> > these <0479 >illek > men 
<1400 g@bar > ,  upon whose <1768 diy > bodies <1655 geshem > 
the fire <5135 nuwr > had no <3809 la> > power <7981 sh@let > ,  
nor <3809 la> > was an hair <8177 s@<ar > of their head <7217 
re>sh > singed <2761 charak > ,  neither <3809 la> > were their 
coats <5622 carbal > changed <8133 sh@na> > ,  nor <3809 la> > 
the smell <7382 reyach > of fire <5135 nuwr > had passed <5709 
<ada> > on them . 

 : 28 .   [ Then ]  Nebuchadnezzar <5020 N@buwkadnetstsar > 
spake <6032 <anah > ,  and said <0560 >amar > ,  Blessed <1289 
b@rak >  [ be ]  the God <0426 >elahh > of Shadrach <7715 
Shadrak > ,  Meshach <4336 Meyshak > ,  and Abednego <5665 <Abed 
N@gow> > ,  who <1768 diy > hath sent <7972 sh@lach > his angel 
<4398 mal>ak > ,  and delivered <7804 sh@zab > his servants 
<5649 <abad > that trusted <7365 r@chats > in him ,  and have 
changed <8133 sh@na> > the king s <4430 melek > word <4406 
millah > ,  and yielded <3052 y@hab > their bodies <1655 geshem

worship <5457 c@gid > any <3606 kol > god <0426 >elahh > ,  
except <3861 lawhen > their own God <0426 >elahh > . 

 : 29 Therefore I make <7761 suwm > a decree <2942 t@<em > ,  
That every <3606 kol > people <5972 <am > ,  nation <0524 >ummah

<0560 >amar > any thing amiss <7955 shalah > against <5922 <al > 
the God <0426 >elahh > of Shadrach <7715 Shadrak > ,  Meshach 
<4336 Meyshak > ,  and Abednego <5665 <Abed N@gow> > ,  shall be 
cut <5648 <abad > in pieces <1917 haddam > ,  and their houses 
<1005 bayith > shall be made <7739 sh@vah > a dunghill <5122 
n@valuw > : because there is no <3809 la> > other <0321 >ochoran

 : 30 Then <0116 >edayin > the king <4430 melek > promoted <6744 
ts@lach > Shadrach <7715 Shadrak > ,  Meshach <4336 Meyshak > ,  
and Abednego <5665 <Abed N@gow> > ,  in the province <4082 
m@diynah > of Babylon <0895 Babel > . 

 : Daniel 4

 : 1 .  Nebuchadnezzar <5020 N@buwkadnetstsar > the king <4430 
melek > ,  unto all <3606 kol > people <5972 <am > ,  nations 
<0524 >ummah > ,  and languages <3961 lishshan > ,  that dwell 
<1753 duwr > in all <3606 kol > the earth <0772 >ara< > ;  Peace 
<8001 sh@lam > be multiplied <7680 s@ga> > unto you . 

 : 2 I thought it good <8232 sh@phar > to shew <2324 chava> > 
the signs <0852 >ath > and wonders <8540 t@mahh > that the high 
<5943 <illay > God <0426 >elahh > hath wrought <5648 <abad > 
toward <5974 <im > me . 

 : 3 How <4101 mah > great <7260 rabrab >  [ are ]  his signs 
<0852 >ath > !  and how <4101 mah > mighty <8624 taqqiyph >  [ 
are ]  his wonders <8540 t@mahh > !  his kingdom <4437 malkuw >  
[ is ]  an everlasting <5957 <alam > kingdom <4437 malkuw > ,  
and his dominion <7985 sholtan >  [ is ]  from generation <1859 
dar > to generation <1859 dar > . 

 : 4 .  I Nebuchadnezzar <5020 N@buwkadnetstsar > was at rest 
<7954 sh@lah > in mine house <1005 bayith > ,  and flourishing 
<7487 ra<anan > in my palace <1965 heykal > : 

 : 5 I saw <2370 chaza> > a dream <2493 chelem > which made me 
afraid <1763 d@chal > ,  and the thoughts <2031 harhor > upon my 
bed <4903 mishkab > and the visions <2376 chezev > of my head 
<7217 re>sh > troubled <0927 b@hal > me . 

 : 6 Therefore made <7761 suwm > I a decree <2942 t@<em > to 
bring <5924 <ella> > in all <3606 kol > the wise <2445 chakkiym

that they might make known <3046 y@da< > unto me the 
interpretation <6591 p@shar > of the dream <2493 chelem > . 

 : 7 Then <0116 >edayin > came <5954 <alal > in the magicians 
<2749 chartom > ,  the astrologers <0826 >ashshaph > ,  the 
Chaldeans <3779 Kasday > ,  and the soothsayers <1505 g@zar > : 
and I told <0560 >amar > the dream <2493 chelem > before <6925 
qodam > them ;  but they did not make known <3046 y@da< > unto 
me the interpretation <6591 p@shar > thereof . 

 : 8 But at <5706 <ad > the last <0318 >ochoreyn > Daniel <1841 
Daniye>l > came <5954 <alal > in before me ,  whose <1768 diy > 
name <8036 shum >  [ was ]  Belteshazzar <1096 Belt@sha>tstsar > 
,  according to the name <8036 shum > of my god <0426 >elahh > , 
 and in whom <1768 diy >  [ is ]  the spirit <7308 ruwach > of 
the holy <6922 qaddiysh > gods <0426 >elahh > : and before <6925 
qodam > him I told <0560 >amar > the dream <2493 chelem > ,   [ 
saying ]  , 

 : 9 O Belteshazzar <1096 Belt@sha>tstsar > ,  master <0729 
>araz > of the magicians <2749 chartom > ,  because <1768 diy > 
I know <3046 y@da< > that the spirit <7308 ruwach > of the holy 
<6922 qaddiysh > gods <0426 >elahh >  [ is ]  in thee ,  and no 
secret <7328 raz > troubleth <0598 >anac > thee ,  tell <0560 
>amar > me the visions <2376 chezev > of my dream <2493 chelem > 
that I have seen <2370 chaza> > ,  and the interpretation <6591 
p@shar > thereof . 

 : 10 Thus  [ were ]  the visions <2376 chezev > of mine head 
<7217 re>sh > in my bed <4903 mishkab > ;  I saw <2370 chaza> > ,
  and behold <0431 >aluw > a tree <0363 >iylan > in the midst 
<1459 gav > of the earth <0772 >ara< > ,  and the height <7314 
ruwm > thereof  [ was ]  great <7690 saggiy> > . 

 : 11 The tree <0363 >iylan > grew <7236 r@bah > ,  and was 
strong <8631 t@qeph > ,  and the height <7314 ruwm > thereof 
reached <4291 m@ta> > unto heaven <8065 shamayin > ,  and the 
sight <2379 chazowth > thereof to the end <5491 cowph > of all 
<3606 kol > the earth <0772 >ara< > : 

 : 12 The leaves <6074 <ophiy > thereof  [ were ]  fair <8509 
takriyk > ,  and the fruit <4> thereof much <7690 saggiy> > ,  
and in it  [ was ]  meat <4203 mazown > for all <3606 kol > : 
the beasts <2423 cheyva> > of the field <1251 bar > had shadow 
<2927 t@lal > under <8460 t@chowth > it ,  and the fowls <6853 
ts@phar > of the heaven <8065 shamayin > dwelt <1753 duwr > in 
the boughs <6056 <anaph > thereof ,  and all <3606 kol > flesh 
<1321 b@sar > was fed <2110 zuwn > of it . 

 : 13 I saw <2370 chaza> > in the visions <2376 chezev > of my 
head <7217 re>sh > upon my bed <4903 mishkab > ,  and ,  behold 
<0431 >aluw > ,  a watcher <5894 <iyr > and an holy <6922 
qaddiysh > one came <5182 n@chath > down <5182 n@chath > from 
heaven <8065 shamayin > ; 

 : 14 He cried <7123 q@ra> > aloud <2429 chayil > ,  and said 
<0560 >amar > thus <3652 ken > ,  Hew <1414 g@dad > down the 
tree <0363 >iylan > ,  and cut <7113 q@tsats > off his branches 
<6056 <anaph > ,  shake <5426 n@ther > off <0575 >an > his 
leaves <6074 <ophiy > ,  and scatter <0921 b@dar > his fruit <4> 
: let the beasts <2423 cheyva> > get <5111 nuwd > away <5111 
nuwd > from under <8478 tachath > it ,  and the fowls <6853 
ts@phar > from his branches <6056 <anaph > : 

 : 15 Nevertheless <1297 b@ram > leave <7662 sh@baq > the stump 
<6136 <iqqar >of his roots <8330 shoresh > in the earth <0772

with the dew <2920 tal > of heaven <8065 shamayin > ,  and  [ 
let ]  his portion <2508 chalaq >  [ be ]  with the beasts <2423 
cheyva> > in the grass <6211 <ash > of the earth <0772 >ara< > : 

 : 16 Let his heart <3825 l@bab > be changed <8133 sh@na> > from 
man s <0606 >enash > ,  and let a beast s <2423 cheyva> > heart 
<3825 l@bab > be given <3052 y@hab > unto him ;  and let seven 
<7655 shib<ah > times <5732 <iddan > pass <2499 chalaph > over 
<5922 <al > him . 

 : 17 This matter <6600 pithgam >  [ is ]  by the decree <1510

up over <5922 <al > it the basest <8215 sh@phal > of men <0606

 : 18 This <1836 den > dream <2493 chelem > I king <4430 melek > 
Nebuchadnezzar <5020 N@buwkadnetstsar > have seen <2370 chaza> > 
.  Now thou ,  O Belteshazzar <1096 Belt@sha>tstsar > ,  declare 
<0560 >amar > the interpretation <6591 p@shar > thereof ,  
forasmuch as all <3606 kol > the wise <2445 chakkiym >  [ men ]  
of my kingdom <4437 malkuw > are not able <3202 y@kel > to make 
known <3046 y@da< > unto me the interpretation <6591 p@shar > : 
but thou  [ art ]  able <3546 k@hal > ;  for the spirit <7308 
ruwach > of the holy <6922 qaddiysh > gods <0426 >elahh >  [ is

 : 19 .  Then <0116 >edayin > Daniel <1841 Daniye>l > ,  whose 
<1768 diy > name <8036 shum >  [ was ]  Belteshazzar <1096 
Belt@sha>tstsar > ,  was astonied <8075 sh@mam > for one <2298 
chad > hour <8160 sha<ah > ,  and his thoughts <7476 ra<yown > 
troubled <0927 b@hal > him .  The king <4430 melek > spake <6032 
<anah > ,  and said <0560 >amar > ,  Belteshazzar <1096 
Belt@sha>tstsar > ,  let not the dream <2493 chelem > ,  or the 
interpretation <6591 p@shar > thereof ,  trouble <0927 b@hal > 
thee .  Belteshazzar <1096 Belt@sha>tstsar > answered <6032 
<anah > and said <0560 >amar > ,  My lord <4756 mare> > ,  the 
dream <2493 chelem >  [ be ]  to them that hate <8131 s@ne> > 
thee ,  and the interpretation <6591 p@shar > thereof to thine 
enemies <6146 <ar > . 

 : 20 The tree <0363 >iylan > that thou sawest <2370 chaza> > ,  
which <1768 diy > grew <7236 r@bah > ,  and was strong <8631 
t@qeph > ,  whose height <7314 ruwm > reached <4291 m@ta> > unto 
the heaven <8065 shamayin > ,  and the sight <2379 chazowth >

their habitation <7932 sh@kan > : 

 : 22 It  [ is ]  thou ,  O king <4430 melek > ,  that art grown 
<7236 r@bah > and become <8631 t@qeph > strong <8631 t@qeph > : 
for thy greatness <7238 r@buw > is grown <7236 r@bah > ,  and 
reacheth <4291 m@ta> > unto heaven <8065 shamayin > ,  and thy 
dominion <7985 sholtan > to the end <5491 cowph > of the earth 
<0772 >ara< > . 

 : 23 And whereas <1768 diy > the king <4430 melek > saw <2370 
chaza> > a watcher <5894 <iyr > and an holy <6922 qaddiysh > one 
coming <5182 n@chath > down <5182 n@chath > from heaven <8065

<1297 b@ram > leave <7662 sh@baq > the stump <6136 <iqqar > of

 : 24 This <1836 den >  [ is ]  the interpretation <6591 p@shar

shib<ah > times <5732 <iddan > shall pass <2499 chalaph > over 
<5922 <al > thee ,  till <5704 <ad > thou know <3046 y@da< > 
that the most <5943 <illay > High ruleth <7980 shalat > in the 
kingdom <4437 malkuw > of men <0606 >enash > ,  and giveth <5415 
n@than > it to whomsoever <4479 man > he will <6634 ts@ba> > . 

 : 26 And whereas <1768 diy > they commanded <0560 >amar > to 
leave <7662 sh@baq > the stump <6136 <iqqar > of the tree <0363 
>iylan > roots <8330 shoresh > ;  thy kingdom <4437 malkuw > 
shall be sure <7011 qayam > unto thee ,  after <1767 day > that 
thou shalt have known <3046 y@da< > that the heavens <8065 
shamayin > do rule <7990 shalliyt > . 

 : 27 Wherefore <3861 lawhen > ,  O king <4430 melek > ,  let my 
counsel <4431 m@lak > be acceptable <8232 sh@phar > unto thee ,  
and break <6562 p@raq > off thy sins <2408 chatiy > by 
righteousness <6665 tsidqah > ,  and thine iniquities <5758 
<ivya> > by shewing mercy <2604 chanan > to the poor <6033 <anah

thy tranquillity <7963 sh@levah > . 

 : 28 .  All <3606 kol > this came <4291 m@ta> > upon the king 
<4430 melek > Nebuchadnezzar <5020 N@buwkadnetstsar > . 

 : 29 At the end <7118 q@tsath > of twelve months <3393 y@rach > 
he walked <1981 halak > in the palace <1965 heykal > of the 
kingdom <4437 malkuw > of Babylon <0895 Babel > . 

 : 30 The king <4430 melek > spake <6032 <anah > ,  and said 
<0560 >amar > ,  Is not this <1668 da> > great <7227 rab > 
Babylon <0895 Babel > ,  that I have built <1124 b@na> > for the 
house <1005 bayith > of the kingdom <4437 malkuw > by the might 
<8632 t@qoph > of my power <2632 checen > ,  and for the honour 
<3367 y@qar > of my majesty <1923 hadar > ? 

 : 31 While <5751 <owd > the word <4406 millah >  [ was ]  in 
the king s <4430 melek > mouth <6433 pum > ,  there fell <5308 
n@phal > a voice <7032 qal > from heaven <8065 shamayin > ,   [ 
saying ]  ,  O king <4430 melek > Nebuchadnezzar <5020 
N@buwkadnetstsar > ,  to thee it is spoken <0560 >amar > ;  The 
kingdom <4437 malkuw > is departed <5709 <ada> > from thee . 

 : 32 And they shall drive <2957 t@rad > thee from men <0606 
>enash > ,  and thy dwelling <4070 m@dowr >  [ shall be ]  with 
the beasts <2423 cheyva> > of the field <1251 bar > : they shall 
make thee to eat <2939 t@<am > grass <6211 <ash > as oxen <8450 
towr > ,  and seven <7655 shib<ah > times <5732 <iddan > shall 
pass <2499 chalaph > over <5922 <al > thee ,  until <5704 <ad > 
thou know <3046 y@da< > that the most <5943 <illay > High <5943 
<illay > ruleth <7980 shalat > in the kingdom <4437 malkuw > of 
men <0606 >enash > ,  and giveth <5415 n@than > it to whomsoever 
<4479 man > he will <6634 ts@ba> > . 

 : 33 The same hour <8160 sha<ah > was the thing <4406 millah > 
fulfilled <5487 cuwph > upon Nebuchadnezzar <5020 
N@buwkadnetstsar > : and he was driven <2957 t@rad > from men 
<0606 >enash > ,  and did eat <0399 >akal > grass <6211 <ash > 
as oxen <8450 towr > ,  and his body <1655 geshem > was wet 
<6647 ts@ba< > with the dew <2920 tal > of heaven <8065 shamayin

r@bah > like eagles <5403 n@shar >   [ feathers ]  ,  and his 
nails <2953 t@phar > like birds <6853 ts@phar >   [ claws ]  . 

 : 34 .  And at the end <7118 q@tsath > of the days <3118 yowm > 
I Nebuchadnezzar<5020 N@buwkadnetstsar > lifted <5191 n@tal > up 
mine eyes <5870 <ayin > unto heaven <8065 shamayin > ,  and mine 
understanding <4486 manda< > returned <7725 shuwb > unto me ,  
and I blessed <1289 b@rak > the most <5943 <illay > High <5943 
<illay > ,  and I praised <7624 sh@bach > and honoured <1922 
hadar > him that liveth <2416 chay > for ever <5957 <alam > ,  
whose <1768 diy > dominion <7985 sholtan >  [ is ]  an 
everlasting <5957 <alam > dominion <7985 sholtan > ,  and his 
kingdom <4437 malkuw >  [ is ]  from generation <1859 dar > to 
generation <1859 dar > : 

 : 35 And all <3606 kol > the inhabitants <1753 duwr > of the 
earth <0772 >ara< >  [ are ]  reputed <2804 chashab > as nothing 
<3809 la> > : and he doeth <5648 <abad > according to his will 
<6634 ts@ba> > in the army <2429 chayil > of heaven <8065 
shamayin > ,  and  [ among ]  the inhabitants <1753 duwr > of 
the earth <0772 >ara< > : and none <3809 la> > can stay <4223 
m@cha> > his hand <3028 yad > ,  or say <0560 >amar > unto him , 
 What <4101 mah > doest <5648 <abad > thou ? 

 : 36 At the same time <2166 z@man > my reason <4486 manda< > 
returned <7725 shuwb > unto me ;  and for the glory <3367 y@qar 
> of my kingdom <4437 malkuw > ,  mine honour <1923 hadar > and 
brightness <2122 ziyv > returned <7725 shuwb > unto me ;  and my 
counsellors <1907 haddabar > and my lords <7261 rabr@ban > 
sought <1158 ba<ah > unto me ;  and I was established <8627 
t@qan > in my kingdom <4437 malkuw > ,  and excellent <3493 
yattiyr > majesty <7238 r@buw > was added <3255 y@caph > unto me 
. 

 : 37 Now <3705 k@<an > I Nebuchadnezzar <5020 N@buwkadnetstsar

<3606 kol > whose works <4567 ma<bad >  [ are ]  truth <7187 
q@showt > ,  and his ways <0735 >orach > judgment <1780 diyn > : 
and those <1768 diy > that walk <1980 halak > in pride <1466 
gevah > he is able <3202 y@kel > to abase <8214 sh@phal > . 

 : Daniel 5

 : 1 .  Belshazzar <1113 Belsha>tstsar > the king <4430 melek > 
made <5648 <abad > a great <7227 rab > feast <3900 l@chem > to a 
thousand <0506 >alaph > of his lords <7261 rabr@ban > ,  and 
drank <8355 sh@thah > wine <2562 chamar > before <6903 q@bel > 
the thousand <0506 >alaph > . 

 : 2 Belshazzar <1113 Belsha>tstsar > ,  whiles he tasted <2942 
t@<em > the wine <2562 chamar > ,  commanded <0560 >amar > to 
bring <0858 >athah > the golden <1722 d@hab > and silver <3702 
k@caph > vessels <3984 ma>n > which <1768 diy > his father <2> 
Nebuchadnezzar <5020 N@buwkadnetstsar > had taken <5312 n@phaq > 
out of the temple <1965 heykal > which <1768 diy >  [ was ]  in 
Jerusalem <3390 Y@ruwshalem  ( Chald )  > ;  that the king <4430 
melek > ,  and his princes <7261 rabr@ban > ,  his wives <7695 
shegal > ,  and his concubines <3904 l@chenah > ,  might drink 
<8355 sh@thah > therein . 

 : 3 Then <0116 >edayin > they brought <0858 >athah > the golden 
<1722 d@hab > vessels <3984 ma>n > that were taken <5312 n@phaq 
> out of the temple <1965 heykal > of the house <1005 bayith > 
of God <0426 >elahh > which <1768 diy >  [ was ]  at Jerusalem 
<3390 Y@ruwshalem  ( Chald )  > ;  and the king <4430 melek > ,  
and his princes <7261 rabr@ban > ,  his wives <7695 shegal > ,  
and his concubines <3904 l@chenah > ,  drank <8355 sh@thah > in 
them . 

 : 4 They drank <8355 sh@thah > wine <2562 chamar > ,  and 
praised <7624 sh@bach > the gods <0426 >elahh > of gold <1722 
d@hab > ,  and of silver <3702 k@caph > ,  of brass <5174 
n@chash > ,  of iron <6523 parzel > ,  of wood <0636 >a< > ,  
and of stone <69> . 

 : 5 In the same hour <8160 sha<ah > came <5312 n@phaq > forth 
<5312 n@phaq > fingers <0677 >etsba< > of a man s <0606 >enash > 
hand <3028 yad > ,  and wrote <3790 k@thab > over <6903 q@bel > 
against <6903 q@bel > the candlestick <5043 nebr@sha> > upon the 
plaister <1528 giyr > of the wall <3797 k@thal > of the king s 
<4430 melek > palace <1965 heykal > : and the king <4430 melek > 
saw <2370 chaza> > the part <6447 pac > of the hand <3028 yad > 
that wrote <3790 k@thab > . 

 : 6 Then <0116 >edayin > the king s <4430 melek > countenance 
<2122 ziyv > was changed <8133 sh@na> > ,  and his thoughts 
<7476 ra<yown > troubled <0927 b@hal > him ,  so that the joints 
<7001 q@tar > of his loins <2788 charer > were loosed <8271 
sh@re> > ,  and his knees <0755 >arkubah > smote <5368 n@qash > 
one <1668 da> > against another <1668 da> > . 

 : 7 The king <4430 melek > cried <7123 q@ra> > aloud <2429 
chayil > to bring <5924 <ella> > in the astrologers <0826 
>ashshaph > ,  the Chaldeans <3779 Kasday > ,  and the 
soothsayers <1505 g@zar > .   [ And ]  the king <4430 melek > 
spake <6032 <anah > ,  and said <0560 >amar > to the wise <2445 
chakkiym >  [ men ]  of Babylon <0895 Babel > ,  Whosoever <3605

gold <1722 d@hab > about <5922 <al > his neck <6676 tsavva>r > , 
 and shall be the third <8523 t@liythay > ruler <7981 sh@let > 
in the kingdom <4437 malkuw > . 

 : 8 Then <0116 >edayin > came <5954 <alal > in all <3606 kol > 
the king s <4430 melek > wise <2445 chakkiym >  [ men ]  : but 
they could <3546 k@hal > not read <7123 q@ra> > the writing 
<3792 k@thab > ,  nor make known <3046 y@da< > to the king <4430 
melek > the interpretation <6591 p@shar > thereof . 

 : 9 Then <0116 >edayin > was king <4430 melek > Belshazzar 
<1113 Belsha>tstsar > greatly <7690 saggiy> > troubled <0927 
b@hal > ,  and his countenance <2122 ziyv > was changed <8133 
sh@na> > in him ,  and his lords <7261 rabr@ban > were astonied 
<2672 chatsab > . 

 : 10 .   [ Now ]  the queen <4433 malka> > ,  by reason <6903 
q@bel > of the words <4406 millah > of the king <4430 melek > 
and his lords <7261 rabr@ban > ,  came <5954 <alal > into the 
banquet <4961 mishteh > house <1005 bayith > :  [ and ]  the 
queen <4433 malka> > spake <6032 <anah > and said <0560 >amar > ,
  O king <4430 melek > ,  live <2414 chataph > for ever <5957

b@hal > thee ,  nor <0408 >al > let thy countenance <2122 ziyv > 
be changed <8133 sh@na> > : 

 : 11 There is a man <1400 g@bar > in thy kingdom <4437 malkuw > 
,  in whom <1768 diy >  [ is ]  the spirit <7308 ruwach > of the 
holy <6922 qaddiysh > gods <0426 >elahh > ;  and in the days 
<3118 yowm > of thy father <2> light <5094 n@hiyr > and 
understanding <7924 sokl@thanuw > and wisdom <2452 chokmah > ,  
like the wisdom <2452 chokmah > of the gods <0426 >elahh > ,  
was found <7912 sh@kach > in him ;  whom the king <4430 melek > 
Nebuchadnezzar <5020 N@buwkadnetstsar > thy father <2> ,  the 
king <4430 melek > ,   [ I say ]  ,  thy father <2> ,  made 
master <0729 >araz > of the magicians <2749 chartom > ,  
astrologers <0826 >ashshaph > ,  Chaldeans <3779 Kasday > ,   [ 
and ]  soothsayers <1505 g@zar > ; 

 : 12 Forasmuch as an excellent <3493 yattiyr > spirit <7308 
ruwach > ,  and knowledge <0998 biynah > ,  and understanding 
<7924 sokl@thanuw > ,  interpreting <6591 p@shar > of dreams 
<2493 chelem > ,  and shewing <0263 >achavah > of hard <0280

sh@re> > of doubts <7001 q@tar > ,  were found <7912 sh@kach > 
in the same Daniel <1841 Daniye>l > ,  whom <1768 diy > the king 
<4430 melek > named <8036 shum > Belteshazzar <1096 
Belt@sha>tstsar > : now <3705 k@<an > let Daniel <1841 Daniye>l

interpretation <6591 p@shar > . 

 : 13 Then <0116 >edayin > was Daniel <1841 Daniye>l > brought 
<5954 <alal > in before <6925 qodam > the king <4430 melek > .   
[ And ]  the king <4430 melek > spake <6032 <anah > and said 
<0560 >amar > unto Daniel <1841 Daniye>l > ,   [ Art ]  thou 
that Daniel <1841 Daniye>l > ,  which <1768 diy >  [ art ]  of 
the children <1123 ben > of the captivity <1547 galuwth > of 
Judah <3061 Y@huwd > ,  whom <1768 diy > the king <4430 melek > 
my father <2> brought <0858 >athah > out of Jewry <3061 Y@huwd > 
? 

 : 14 I have even heard <8086 sh@ma< > of thee ,  that the 
spirit <7308 ruwach > of the gods <0426 >elahh >  [ is ]  in 
thee ,  and  [ that ]  light <5094 n@hiyr > and understanding 
<7924 sokl@thanuw > and excellent <3493 yattiyr > wisdom <2452 
chokmah > is found <7912 sh@kach > in thee . 

 : 15 And now <3705 k@<an > the wise <2445 chakkiym >  [ men ]  ,
  the astrologers <0826 >ashshaph > ,  have been brought <5954 
<alal > in before <6925 qodam > me ,  that they should read 
<7123 q@ra> > this <1836 den > writing <3792 k@thab > ,  and 
make known <3046 y@da< > unto me the interpretation <6591 p@shar

the interpretation <6591 p@shar > of the thing <4406 millah > : 

 : 16 And I have heard <8086 sh@ma< > of thee ,  that thou canst 
<3202 y@kel > make interpretations <6591 p@shar > ,  and 
dissolve <8271 sh@re> > doubts <7001 q@tar > : now <3705 k@<an > 
if <2006 hen > thou canst <3202 y@kel > read <7123 q@ra> > the 
writing <3792 k@thab > ,  and make known <3046 y@da< > to me the 
interpretation <6591 p@shar > thereof ,  thou shalt be clothed 
<3848 l@bash > with scarlet <0711 >arg@van > ,  and  [ have ]  a 
chain <2002 hamniyk > of gold <1722 d@hab > about <5922 <al > 
thy neck <6676 tsavva>r > ,  and shalt be the third <8531 t@lath

 : 17 Then <0116 >edayin > Daniel <1841 Daniye>l > answered 
<6032 <anah > and said <0560 >amar > before <6925 qodam > the 
king <4430 melek > ,  Let thy gifts <4978 matt@na> > be to 
thyself ,  and give <3052 y@hab > thy rewards <5023 n@bizbah > 
to another <0321 >ochoran > ;  yet <1297 b@ram > I will read 
<7123 q@ra> > the writing <3792 k@thab > unto the king <4430 
melek > ,  and make known <3046 y@da< > to him the 
interpretation <6591 p@shar > . 

 : 18 O thou king <4430 melek > ,  the most <5943 <illay > high 
<5943 <illay > God <0426 >elahh > gave <3052 y@hab > 
Nebuchadnezzar <5020 N@buwkadnetstsar > thy father <2> a kingdom 
<4437 malkuw > ,  and majesty <7238 r@buw > ,  and glory <3367 
y@qar > ,  and honour <1923 hadar > : 

 : 19 And for the majesty <7238 r@buw > that he gave <3052 y@hab

zuwa< > and feared <1763 d@chal > before him : whom <1768 diy > 
he would <6634 ts@ba> > he slew <6992 q@tal > ;  and whom <1768 
diy > he would <6634 ts@ba> > he kept alive <2418 chaya> > ;  
and whom <1768 diy > he would <6634 ts@ba> > he set <7313 ruwm > 
up ;  and whom he would <6634 ts@ba> > he put <8214 sh@phal > 
down <8214 sh@phal > . 

 : 20 But when <1768 diy > his heart <3825 l@bab > was lifted 
<7313 ruwm > up ,  and his mind <7307 ruwach > hardened <8631 
t@qeph > in pride <2103 zuwd > ,  he was deposed <5182 n@chath > 
from his kingly <4437 malkuw > throne <3764 korce> > ,  and they 
took <5709 <ada> > his glory <3367 y@qar > from him : 

 : 21 And he was driven <2957 t@rad > from the sons <1123 ben > 
of men <0606 >enash > ;  and his heart <3825 l@bab > was made 
<7737 shavah > like <5974 <im > the beasts <2423 cheyva> > ,  
and his dwelling <4070 m@dowr >  [ was ]  with the wild <6167 
<arad > asses <6167 <arad > : they fed <2939 t@<am > him with 
grass <6211 <ash > like oxen <8450 towr > ,  and his body <1655 
geshem > was wet <6647 ts@ba< > with the dew <2920 tal > of 
heaven <8065 shamayin > ;  till <5704 <ad > he knew <3046 y@da<

men <0606 >enash > ,  and  [ that ]  he appointeth <6966 quwm > 
over <5922 <al > it whomsoever he will <6634 ts@ba> > . 

 : 22 And thou his son <1247 bar > ,  O Belshazzar <1113 
Belsha>tstsar > ,  hast not humbled <8214 sh@phal > thine heart 
<3825 l@bab > ,  though thou knewest <3046 y@da< > all <3606 kol

 : 23 But hast lifted <7313 ruwm > up thyself against <5922 <al

have brought <0858 >athah > the vessels <3984 ma>n > of his 
house <1005 bayith > before <6925 qodam > thee ,  and thou ,  
and thy lords <7261 rabr@ban > ,  thy wives <7695 shegal > ,  
and thy concubines <3904 l@chenah > ,  have drunk <8355 sh@thah

  and finished <8000 sh@lam > it . 

 : 27 TEKEL <8625 t@qal > ;  Thou art weighed <8625 t@qal > in 
the balances <3976 mo>zen > ,  and art found <7912 sh@kach > 
wanting <2627 chacciyr > . 

 : 28 PERES <6537 p@rac > ;  Thy kingdom <4437 malkuw > is 
divided <6537 p@rac > ,  and given <3052 y@hab > to the Medes 
<4076 Maday > and Persians <6540 Parac > . 

 : 29 Then <0116 >edayin > commanded <0560 >amar > Belshazzar 
<1113 Belsha>tstsar > ,  and they clothed <3848 l@bash > Daniel 
<1841 Daniye>l > with scarlet <0711 >arg@van > ,  and  [ put ]  
a chain <2002 hamniyk > of gold <1722 d@hab > about <5922 <al > 
his neck <6676 tsavva>r > ,  and made a proclamation <3745 k@raz

<8531 t@lath > ruler <7990 shalliyt > in the kingdom <4437

Belsha>tstsar > the king <4430 melek > of the Chaldeans <3779 
Kasday > slain <6992 q@tal > . 

 : 31 And Darius <1868 Dar@yavesh > the Median <4077 Maday > 
took <6902 q@bal > the kingdom <4437 malkuw > ,   [ being ]  
about threescore <8361 shittiyn > and two <8648 t@reyn > years 
<8140 sh@nah > old <1247 bar > . 

 : Daniel 6

 : 1 .  It pleased <8232 sh@phar > Darius <1868 Dar@yavesh > to 
set <3966 m@<od > over <5922 <al > the kingdom <4437 malkuw > an 
hundred <3969 ma>ah > and twenty <6243 <esriyn > princes <0324

<3606 kol > kingdom <4437 malkuw > ; 

 : 2 And over <5924 <ella> > these <4481 min > three <8532 
t@lath > presidents <5632 carek > ;  of whom Daniel <1841 
Daniye>l >  [ was ]  first <2298 chad > : that the princes <0324

unto them ,  and the king <4430 melek > should have <1934 hava>

 : 3 Then <0116 >edayin > this <1836 den > Daniel <1841 Daniye>l

<5632 carek > and princes <0324 >achashdarpan > ,  because an 
excellent <3493 yattiyr > spirit <7308 ruwach >  [ was ]  in him 
;  and the king <4430 melek > thought <6246 <ashith > to set 
<3966 m@<od > him over <5922 <al > the whole <3606 kol > realm 
<4437 malkuw > . 

 : 4 Then <0116 >edayin > the presidents <5632 carek > and 
princes <0324 >achashdarpan > sought <1158 ba<ah > to find <7912 
sh@kach > occasion <5931 <illah > against Daniel <1841 Daniye>l

could <3202 y@kel > find <7912 sh@kach > none <3809 la> > 
occasion <5931 <illah > nor <3809 la> > fault <7844 sh@chath > ; 
 forasmuch as he  [ was ]  faithful <0540 >aman > ,  neither 
<3809 la> > was there any <3606 kol > error <7960 shaluw > or 
fault <7844 sh@chath > found <7912 sh@kach > in him . 

 : 5 Then <0116 >edayin > said <0560 >amar > these <0479 >illek

find <7912 sh@kach >  [ it ]  against him concerning the law 
<1882 dath > of his God <0426 >elahh > . 

 : 6 .  Then <0116 >edayin > these <0459 >illeyn > presidents 
<5632 carek > and princes <0324 >achashdarpan > assembled <7284 
r@gash > together to the king <4430 melek > ,  and said <0560

<1868 Dar@yavesh > ,  live <2414 chataph > for ever <5757 <Avviy

 : 7 All <3606 kol > the presidents <5632 carek > of the kingdom 
<4437 malkuw > ,  the governors <5461 cagan > ,  and the princes 
<0324 >achashdarpan > ,  the counsellors <1907 haddabar > ,  and 
the captains <6347 pechah > ,  have consulted <3272 y@<at > 
together to establish <6966 quwm > a royal <4430 melek > statute 
<7010 q@yam > ,  and to make a firm <8631 t@qeph > decree <0633

shall be cast <7412 r@mah > into the den <1358 gob > of lions 
<0744 >aryeh > . 

 : 8 Now <3705 k@<an > ,  O king <4430 melek > ,  establish 
<6966 quwm > the decree <0633 >ecar > ,  and sign <7560 r@sham > 
the writing <3792 k@thab > ,  that it be not changed <8133

Maday > and Persians <6540 Parac > ,  which <1768 diy > altereth 
<5709 <ada> > not . 

 : 9 Wherefore king <4430 melek > Darius <1868 Dar@yavesh > 
signed <7560 r@sham > the writing <3792 k@thab > and the decree 
<0633 >ecar > . 

 : 10 Now <1768 diy > when <1768 diy > Daniel <1841 Daniye>l > 
knew <3046 y@da< > that the writing <3792 k@thab > was signed 
<7560 r@sham > ,  he went <5954 <alal > into his house <1005

<3390 Y@ruwshalem  ( Chald )  > ,  he kneeled <1289 b@rak > upon 
his knees <1291 berek > three <8532 t@lath > times <2166 z@man > 
a day <3118 yowm > ,  and prayed <6739 ts@la> > ,  and gave 
thanks <3029 y@da> > before <6925 qodam > his God <0426 >elahh > 
,  as he did <5648 <abad > aforetime . 

 : 11 .  Then <0116 >edayin > these <0479 >illek > men <1400 
g@bar > assembled <7284 r@gash > ,  and found <7912 sh@kach > 
Daniel <1841 Daniye>l > praying <1156 b@<a> > and making 
supplication <2604 chanan > before <6925 qodam > his God <0426

 : 12 Then <0116 >edayin > they came <7127 q@reb > near <7127 
q@reb > ,  and spake <0560 >amar > before <6925 qodam > the king 
<4430 melek > concerning <5922 <al > the king s <4430 melek > 
decree <0633 >ecar > ;  Hast thou not signed <7560 r@sham > a

thirty <8533 t@lathiyn > days <3118 yowm > ,  save <3861 lawhen

into the den <1358 gob > of lions <0744 >aryeh > ?  The king 
<4430 melek > answered <6032 <anah > and said <0560 >amar > ,  
The thing <4406 millah >  [ is ]  true <3330 yatstsiyb > ,  
according to the law <1882 dath > of the Medes <4076 Maday > and 
Persians <6540 Parac > ,  which <1768 diy > altereth <5709 <ada>

 : 13 Then <0116 >edayin > answered <6032 <anah > they and said 
<0560 >amar > before <6925 qodam > the king <4430 melek > ,  
That Daniel <1841 Daniye>l > ,  which <1768 diy >  [ is ]  of 
the children <1123 ben > of the captivity <1547 galuwth > of 
Judah <3061 Y@huwd > ,  regardeth not thee ,  O king <4430 melek

r@sham > ,  but maketh his petition <1159 ba<uw > three <8532 
t@lath > times <2166 z@man > a day <3118 yowm > . 

 : 14 Then <0116 >edayin > the king <4430 melek > ,  when <1768 
diy > he heard <8086 sh@ma< >  [ these ]  words <4406 millah > , 
 was sore <7690 saggiy> > displeased <0888 b@>esh > with himself 
,  and set <7761 suwm >  [ his ]  heart <1079 bal > on <5922 <al

laboured <7712 sh@dar > till <5704 <ad > the going <4606 me<al > 
down <4606 me<al > of the sun <8122 shemesh > to deliver <5338 
n@tsal > him . 

 : 15 Then <0116 >edayin > these <0479 >illek > men <1400 g@bar

said <0560 >amar > unto the king <4430 melek > ,  Know <3046 
y@da< > ,  O king <4430 melek > ,  that the law <1882 dath > of 
the Medes <4076 Maday > and Persians <6540 Parac >  [ is ]  ,  
That no decree <0633 >ecar > nor statute <7010 q@yam > which 
<1768 diy > the king <4430 melek > establisheth <6966 quwm > may 
be changed <8133 sh@na> > . 

 : 16 Then <0116 >edayin > the king <4430 melek > commanded 
<0560 >amar > ,  and they brought <0858 >athah > Daniel <1841 
Daniye>l > ,  and cast <7412 r@mah >  [ him ]  into the den 
<1358 gob > of lions <0744 >aryeh > .   [ Now <0116 >edayin > ]  
the king <4430 melek > spake <6032 <anah > and said <0560 >amar

<1768 diy > thou servest <6399 p@lach > continually <8411 
t@diyra> > ,  he will deliver <7804 sh@zab > thee . 

 : 17 And a stone <69> was brought <0858 >athah > ,  and laid 
<7760 suwm > upon the mouth <6433 pum > of the den <1358 gob > ; 
 and the king <4430 melek > sealed <2857 chatham > it with his 
own signet <5824 <izqa> > ,  and with the signet <5824 <izqa> > 
of his lords <7261 rabr@ban > ;  that the purpose <6640 ts@buw > 
might not be changed <8133 sh@na> > concerning Daniel <1841 
Daniye>l > . 

 : 18 .  Then <0116 >edayin > the king <4430 melek > went <0236 
>azal > to his palace <1965 heykal > ,  and passed the night 
<0956 buwth > fasting <2908 t@vath > : neither <3809 la> > were 
instruments <1761 dachavah > of musick brought <5954 <alal > 
before <6925 qodam > him : and his sleep <8139 sh@nah > went 
<5075 n@dad > from him . 

 : 19 Then <0116 >edayin > the king <4430 melek > arose <6966 
quwm > very early <8238 sh@pharphar > in the morning <5053 
nogahh > ,  and went <0236 >azal > in haste <0927 b@hal > unto 
the den <1358 gob > of lions <0744 >aryeh > . 

 : 20 And when he came <7127 q@reb > to the den <1358 gob > ,  
he cried <2200 z@<iq > with a lamentable <6088 <atsab > voice 
<7032 qal > unto Daniel <1841 Daniye>l > :  [ and ]  the king 
<4430 melek > spake <6032 <anah > and said <0560 >amar > to 
Daniel <1841 Daniye>l > ,  O Daniel <1841 Daniye>l > ,  servant 
<5649 <abad > of the living <2417 chay > God <0426 >elahh > ,  
is thy God <0426 >elahh > ,  whom <1768 diy > thou servest <6399 
p@lach > continually <8411 t@diyra> > ,  able <3202 y@kel > to 
deliver <7804 sh@zab > thee from the lions <0744 >aryeh > ? 

 : 21 Then <0116 >edayin > said <4449 m@lal > Daniel <1841 
Daniye>l > unto the king <4430 melek > ,  O king <4430 melek > , 
 live <2414 chataph > for ever <5957 <alam > . 

 : 22 My God <0426 >elahh > hath sent <7972 sh@lach > his angel 
<4398 mal>ak > ,  and hath shut <5463 c@gar > the lions <0744 
>aryeh >  mouths <6433 pum > ,  that they have not hurt <2255 
chabal > me : forasmuch as before <6925 qodam > him innocency 
<2136 zakuw > was found <7912 sh@kach > in me ;  and also <0638 
>aph > before <6925 qodam > thee ,  O king <4430 melek > ,  have 
I done <5648 <abad > no <3809 la> > hurt <2248 chabuwlah > . 

 : 23 Then <0116 >edayin > was the king <4430 melek > exceeding 
<7689 saggiy> > glad <2868 t@>eb > for him ,  and commanded 
<0560 >amar > that they should take <5267 n@caq > Daniel <1841 
Daniye>l > up out of the den <1358 gob > .  So Daniel <1841 
Daniye>l > was taken <5267 n@caq > up out of the den <1358 gob > 
,  and no manner of hurt <2257 chabal > was found <7912 sh@kach

his God <0426 >elahh > . 

 : 24 And the king <4430 melek > commanded <0560 >amar > ,  and 
they brought <0858 >athah > those <0479 >illek > men <1400 g@bar

Daniye>l > ,  and they cast <7412 r@mah >  [ them ]  into the 
den <1358 gob > of lions <0744 >aryeh > ,  them ,  their 
children <1123 ben > ,  and their wives <5389 nashiyn > ;  and 
the lions <0744 >aryeh > had the mastery <6981 Qowre> > of them ,
  and brake <1855 d@qaq > all <3606 kol > their bones <1635 
gerem > in pieces or ever <3809 la> > they came <4291 m@ta> > at 
the bottom <0773 >ar<iyth > of the den <1358 gob > . 

 : 25 .  Then <0116 >edayin > king <4430 melek > Darius <1868 
Dar@yavesh > wrote <3790 k@thab > unto all <3606 kol > people 
<5972 <am > ,  nations <0524 >ummah > ,  and languages <3961 
lishshan > ,  that dwell <1753 duwr > in all <3606 kol > the 
earth <0772 >ara< > ;  Peace <8001 sh@lam > be multiplied <7680 
s@ga> > unto you . 

 : 26 I make <7761 suwm > a decree <2942 t@<em > ,  That in 
every <3606 kol > dominion <7985 sholtan > of my kingdom <4437 
malkuw > men tremble <2112 zuwa< > and fear <1763 d@chal > 
before the God <0426 >elahh > of Daniel <1841 Daniye>l > : for 
he  [ is ]  the living <2417 chay > God <0426 >elahh > ,  and 
stedfast <7011 qayam > for ever <5957 <alam > ,  and his kingdom 
<4437 malkuw >  [ that ]  which <1768 diy > shall not be 
destroyed <2255 chabal > ,  and his dominion <7985 sholtan >  [ 
shall be even ]  unto the end <5491 cowph > . 

 : 27 He delivereth <7804 sh@zab > and rescueth <5338 n@tsal > , 
 and he worketh <5648 <abad > signs <0852 >ath > and wonders 
<8540 t@mahh > in heaven <8065 shamayin > and in earth <0772 
>ara< > ,  who <1768 diy > hath delivered <7804 sh@zab > Daniel 
<1841 Daniye>l > from the power <3028 yad > of the lions <0744 
>aryeh > . 

 : 28 So this <1836 den > Daniel <1841 Daniye>l > prospered 
<6744 ts@lach > in the reign <4437 malkuw > of Darius <1868 
Dar@yavesh > ,  and in the reign <4437 malkuw > of Cyrus <3567 
Kowresh > the Persian <6523 parzel > . 

 : Daniel 7

 : 1 .  In the first <2298 chad > year <8140 sh@nah > of 
Belshazzar <1113 Belsha>tstsar > king <4430 melek > of Babylon 
<0895 Babel > Daniel <1841 Daniye>l > had <2370 chaza> > a dream 
<2493 chelem > and visions <2376 chezev > of his head <7217 
re>sh > upon his bed <4903 mishkab > : then <0116 >edayin > he 
wrote <3790 k@thab > the dream <2493 chelem > ,   [ and ]  told 
<0560 >amar > the sum <7217 re>sh > of the matters <4406 millah

 : 2 Daniel <1841 Daniye>l > spake <6032 <anah > and said <0560

night <3916 leyl@ya> > ,  and ,  behold <0718 >aruw > ,  the 
four <0703 >arba< > winds <7308 ruwach > of the heaven <8065 
shamayin > strove <1519 giyach > upon the great <7227 rab > sea 
<3221 yam > . 

 : 3 And four <0703 >arba< > great <7260 rabrab > beasts <2423 
cheyva> > came <5559 c@liq > up from the sea <3221 yam > ,  
diverse <8133 sh@na> > one <1668 da> > from another <1668 da> > .
 

 : 4 The first <6933 qadmay >  [ was ]  like a lion <0738 >ariy

beheld till <5704 <ad > the wings <1611 gaph > thereof were 
plucked <4804 m@rat > ,  and it was lifted <5191 n@tal > up from 
the earth <0772 >ara< > ,  and made stand <6966 quwm > upon the 
feet <7271 r@gal > as a man <0606 >enash > ,  and a man s <0606 
>enash > heart <3825 l@bab > was given <3052 y@hab > to it . 

 : 5 And behold <0718 >aruw > another <0317 >ochoriy > beast 
<2423 cheyva> > ,  a second <8578 tinyan > ,  like <1821 d@mah > 
to a bear <1678 dob > ,  and it raised <6966 quwm > up itself on 
one <2298 chad > side <7859 sh@tar > ,  and  [ it had ]  three 
<8532 t@lath > ribs <6763 tsela< > in the mouth <6433 pum > of 
it between <0997 beyn > the teeth <8128 shen > of it : and they 
said <0560 >amar > thus <3652 ken > unto it ,  Arise <6965 quwm

 : 6 After <0870 >athar > this <1836 den > I beheld ,  and lo 
<0718 >aruw > another <0317 >ochoriy > ,  like a leopard <5245 
n@mar > ,  which <1768 diy > had upon the back <1355 gab > of it 
four <0703 >arba< > wings <1611 gaph > of a fowl <5776 <owph > ; 
 the beast <2423 cheyva> > had also four <0703 >arba< > heads 
<7217 re>sh > ;  and dominion <7985 sholtan > was given <3052 
y@hab > to it . 

 : 7 After <0870 >athar > this <1836 den > I saw <2370 chaza> > 
in the night <3916 leyl@ya> > visions <2376 chezev > ,  and 
behold <0718 >aruw > a fourth <7244 r@biy<ay > beast <2423 
cheyva> > ,  dreadful <1763 d@chal > and terrible <0574 >emtaniy

and it had great <7260 rabrab > iron <6523 parzel > teeth <8128 
shen > : it devoured <0399 >akal > and brake <1855 d@qaq > in 
pieces ,  and stamped <7512 r@phac > the residue <7606 sh@>ar > 
with the feet <7271 r@gal > of it : and it  [ was ]  diverse 
<8133 sh@na> > from all <3606 kol > the beasts <2423 cheyva> > 
that  [ were ]  before <6925 qodam > it ;  and it had ten <6236 
<asar > horns <7162 qeren > . 

 : 8 I considered <7920 s@kal > the horns <7162 qeren > ,  and , 
 behold <0431 >aluw > ,  there came <5559 c@liq > up among <0997 
beyn > them another <0317 >ochoriy > little <2192 z@<eyr > horn 
<7162 qeren > ,  before <6925 qodam > whom there were three 
<8532 t@lath > of the first <6933 qadmay > horns <7162 qeren > 
plucked <6132 <aqar > up by the roots <6132 <aqar > : and ,  
behold <0431 >aluw > ,  in this <1668 da> > horn <7162 qeren >  
[ were ]  eyes <5870 <ayin > like the eyes <5870 <ayin > of man 
<0606 >enash > ,  and a mouth <6433 pum > speaking <4449 m@lal > 
great <7260 rabrab > things . 

 : 9 .  I beheld till <5704 <ad > the thrones <3764 korce> > 
were cast <7412 r@mah > down ,  and the Ancient <6268 <attiyq > 
of days <3118 yowm > did sit <3488 y@thiyb > ,  whose garment 
<3831 l@buwsh >  [ was ]  white as snow <8517 t@lag > ,  and the 
hair <8177 s@<ar > of his head <7217 re>sh > like the pure <5343 
n@qe> > wool <6015 <amar > : his throne <3764 korce> >  [ was 
like ]  the fiery <5135 nuwr > flame <7631 s@biyb > ,   [ and ]  
his wheels <1535 galgal >  [ as ]  burning <1815 d@laq > fire 
<5135 nuwr > . 

 : 10 A fiery <5135 nuwr > stream <5103 n@har > issued <5047 
n@gad > and came <5312 n@phaq > forth <5312 n@phaq > from before 
<6925 qodam > him : thousand <0506 >alaph > thousands <0506 
>alaph > ministered <8120 sh@mash > unto him ,  and ten <7240 
ribbow > thousand <7240 ribbow > times ten <7240 ribbow > 
thousand <7240 ribbow > stood <6966 quwm > before <6925 qodam > 
him : the judgment <1780 diyn > was set <3488 y@thiyb > ,  and 
the books <5609 c@phar > were opened <6606 p@thach > . 

 : 11 I beheld then <0116 >edayin > because <4481 min > of the 
voice <7032 qal > of the great <7260 rabrab > words <4406 millah 
> which <1768 diy > the horn <7162 qeren > spake <4449 m@lal > : 
I beheld  [ even <5705 <ad > ]  till <5704 <ad > the beast <2423 
cheyva> > was slain <6992 q@tal > ,  and his body <1655 geshem > 
destroyed <7> ,  and given <3052 y@hab > to the burning <3346 
y@qeda> > flame <0785 >esh > . 

 : 12 As concerning the rest <7606 sh@>ar > of the beasts <2423 
cheyva> > ,  they had their dominion <7985 sholtan > taken <5709 
<ada> > away <5709 <ada> > : yet their lives <2417 chay > were 
prolonged for a season <2166 z@man > and time <5732 <iddan > . 

 : 13 I saw <2370 chaza> > in the night <6916 qiddah > visions 
<2376 chezev > ,  and ,  behold <0718 >aruw > ,   [ one ]  like 
the Son <1247 bar > of man <0606 >enash > came with the clouds 
<6050 <anan > of heaven <8065 shamayin > ,  and came <4291 m@ta> 
> to the Ancient <6268 <attiyq > of days <3118 yowm > ,  and 
they brought <7127 q@reb > him near <7127 q@reb > before <6925 
qodam > him . 

 : 14 And there was given <3052 y@hab > him dominion <7985 
sholtan > ,  and glory <3367 y@qar > ,  and a kingdom <4437 
malkuw > ,  that all <3606 kol > people <5972 <am > ,  nations 
<0524 >ummah > ,  and languages <3961 lishshan > ,  should serve 
<6399 p@lach > him : his dominion <7985 sholtan >  [ is ]  an 
everlasting <5957 <alam > dominion <7985 sholtan > ,  which 
<1768 diy > shall not pass <5709 <ada> > away <5709 <ada> > ,  
and his kingdom <4437 malkuw >  [ that ]  which <1768 diy > 
shall not be destroyed <2255 chabal > . 

 : 15 .  I Daniel <1841 Daniye>l > was grieved <3735 Kara> > in 
my spirit <7308 ruwach > in the midst <1459 gav > of  [ my ]  
body <5085 nidneh > ,  and the visions <2376 chezev > of my head 
<7217 re>sh > troubled <0927 b@hal > me . 

 : 16 I came <7127 q@reb > near <7127 q@reb > unto one <2298 
chad > of them that stood <6966 quwm > by ,  and asked <1156 
b@<a> > him the truth <3330 yatstsiyb > of all <3606 kol > this 
<1836 den > .  So he told <0560 >amar > me ,  and made me know 
<3046 y@da< > the interpretation <6591 p@shar > of the things 
<4406 millah > . 

 : 17 These <0459 >illeyn > great <7260 rabrab > beasts <2423 
cheyva> > ,  which <1768 diy > are four <0703 >arba< > ,   [ are 
]  four <0703 >arba< > kings <4430 melek > ,   [ which ]  shall 
arise <6965 quwm > out of the earth <0772 >ara< > . 

 : 18 But the saints <6922 qaddiysh > of the most <5946 <elyown 
> High <5946 <elyown > shall take <6902 q@bal > the kingdom 
<4437 malkuw > ,  and possess <2631 chacan > the kingdom <4437 
malkuw > for ever <5957 <alam > ,  even <5705 <ad > for ever 
<5957 <alam > and ever <5957 <alam > . 

 : 19 Then <0116 >edayin > I would <6634 ts@ba> > know <3046 
y@da< > the truth <3321 y@tseb > of the fourth <7244 r@biy<ay > 
beast <2423 cheyva> > ,  which <1768 diy > was diverse <8133 
sh@na> > from all <3606 kol > the others ,  exceeding <3493 
yattiyr > dreadful <1763 d@chal > ,  whose <1768 diy > teeth 
<8128 shen >  [ were of ]  iron <6523 parzel > ,  and his nails 
<2953 t@phar >  [ of ]  brass <5174 n@chash > ;   [ which ]  
devoured <0399 >akal > ,  brake <1855 d@qaq > in pieces ,  and 
stamped <7512 r@phac > the residue <7606 sh@>ar > with his feet 
<7271 r@gal > ; 

 : 20 And of the ten <6236 <asar > horns <7162 qeren > that  [ 
were ]  in his head <7217 re>sh > ,  and  [ of ]  the other 
<0317 >ochoriy > which <1768 diy > came <5559 c@liq > up ,  and 
before whom <4479 man > three <8532 t@lath > fell <5308 n@phal > 
;  even  [ of ]  that horn <7162 qeren > that had eyes <5870 
<ayin > ,  and a mouth <6433 pum > that spake <4449 m@lal > very 
<7260 rabrab > great <7260 rabrab > things ,  whose look <2376 
chezev >  [ was ]  more <5750 <owd > stout <7229 rab > than 
<4481 min > his fellows <2273 chabrah > . 

 : 21 I beheld ,  and the same <1797 dikken > horn <7162 qeren > 
made <5648 <abad > war <7129 q@rab > with the saints <6922 
qaddiysh > ,  and prevailed <3202 y@kel > against them ; 

 : 22 Until <5704 <ad > the Ancient <6268 <attiyq > of days 
<3118 yowm > came <0858 >athah > ,  and judgment <1780 diyn > 
was given <3052 y@hab > to the saints <6922 qaddiysh > of the 
most <5946 <elyown > High <5946 <elyown > ;  and the time <2166 
z@man > came <4291 m@ta> > that the saints <6922 qaddiysh > 
possessed <2631 chacan > the kingdom <4437 malkuw > . 

 : 23 Thus <3652 ken > he said <0560 >amar > ,  The fourth <7244 
r@biy<ay > beast <2423 cheyva> > shall be the fourth <7244 
r@biy<ay > kingdom <4437 malkuw > upon earth <0772 >ara< > ,  
which <1768 diy > shall be diverse <8133 sh@na> > from all <3606 
kol > kingdoms <4437 malkuw > ,  and shall devour <0399 >akal > 
the whole <3606 kol > earth <0772 >ara< > ,  and shall tread 
<1759 duwsh > it down ,  and break <1854 daqaq > it in pieces . 

 : 24 And the ten <6236 <asar > horns <7162 qeren > out of this 
kingdom <4437 malkuw >  [ are ]  ten <6236 <asar > kings <4430 
melek >  [ that ]  shall arise <6965 quwm > : and another <0312 
>acher > shall rise <6966 quwm > after <0311 >achar > them ;  
and he shall be diverse <8133 sh@na> > from the first <6933 
qadmay > ,  and he shall subdue <8214 sh@phal > three <8532 
t@lath > kings <4430 melek > . 

 : 25 And he shall speak <4449 m@lal >  [ great ]  words <4406 
millah > against<6655 tsad > the most <5943 <illay > High <5943 
<illay > ,  and shall wear <1080 b@la> > out the saints <6922 
qaddiysh > of the most <5946 <elyown > High <5946 <elyown > ,  
and think <5452 c@bar > to change <8133 sh@na> > times <2166 
z@man > and laws <1882 dath > : and they shall be given <3052 
y@hab > into his hand <3028 yad > until <5704 <ad > a time <5732 
<iddan > and times <5732 <iddan > and the dividing <6387 p@lag > 
of time <5732 <iddan > . 

 : 26 But the judgment <1780 diyn > shall sit <3488 y@thiyb > ,  
and they shall take <5709 <ada> > away <5709 <ada> > his 
dominion <7985 sholtan > ,  to consume <8046 sh@mad > and to 
destroy <7>  [ it ]  unto the end <5491 cowph > . 

 : 27 And the kingdom <4437 malkuw > and dominion <7985 sholtan 
> ,  and the greatness <7238 r@buw > of the kingdom <4437 malkuw 
> under <8460 t@chowth > the whole <3606 kol > heaven <8065 
shamayin > ,  shall be given <3052 y@hab > to the people <5972 
<am > of the saints <6922 qaddiysh > of the most <5945 >elyown > 
High <5946 <elyown > ,  whose kingdom <4437 malkuw >  [ is ]  an 
everlasting <5957 <alam > kingdom <4437 malkuw > ,  and all 
<3606 kol > dominions <7985 sholtan > shall serve <6399 p@lach > 
and obey <8086 sh@ma< > him . 

 : 28 Hitherto  [ is ]  the end <5491 cowph > of the matter 
<4406 millah > .  As for me Daniel <1841 Daniye>l > ,  my 
cogitations <7476 ra<yown > much <7690 saggiy> > troubled <0927 
b@hal > me ,  and my countenance <2122 ziyv > changed <8133 
sh@na> > in me : but I kept <5202 n@tar > the matter <4406 
millah > in my heart <3821 leb > . 

 : Daniel 8

 : 1 .  In the third <7969 shalowsh > year <8141 shaneh > of the 
reign <4438 malkuwth > of king <4428 melek > Belshazzar <1113 
Belsha>tstsar > a vision <2377 chazown > appeared <7200 ra>ah > 
unto me ,   [ even unto ]  me Daniel <1840 Daniye>l > ,  after 
<0310 >achar > that which appeared <7200 ra>ah > unto me at the 
first <8462 t@chillah > . 

 : 2 And I saw <7200 ra>ah > in a vision <2377 chazown > ;  and 
it came <1961 hayah > to pass ,  when I saw <7200 ra>ah > ,  
that I  [ was ]  at Shushan <7800 Shuwshan >  [ in ]  the palace 
<1002 biyrah > ,  which <0834 >aher >  [ is ]  in the province 
<4082 m@diynah > of Elam <5867 <Eylam > ;  and I saw <7200 ra>ah 
> in a vision <2377 chazown > ,  and I was by the river <0180 
>uwbal > of Ulai <0195 >Uwlay > . 

 : 3 Then I lifted <5375 nasa> > up mine eyes <5869 <ayin > ,  
and saw <7200 ra>ah > ,  and ,  behold <2009 hinneh > ,  there 
stood <5975 <amad > before <6440 paniym > the river <0180 >uwbal 
> a ram <0352 >ayil > which had  [ two ]  horns <7161 qeren > : 
and the  [ two ]  horns <7161 qeren >  [ were ]  high <1364 
gaboahh > ;  but one <0259 >echad >  [ was ]  higher <1364 
gaboahh > than <4480 min > the other <8145 sheniy > ,  and the 
higher <1364 gaboahh > came <5927 <alah > up last <0314 
>acharown > . 

 : 4 I saw <7200 ra>ah > the ram <0352 >ayil > pushing <5055 
nagach > westward <3220 yam > ,  and northward <6828 tsaphown > ,
  and southward <5045 negeb > ;  so that no <3808 lo> > beasts 
<2416 chay > might stand <5975 <amad > before <6440 paniym > him 
,  neither <0369 >ayin >  [ was there any ]  that could deliver 
<5337 natsal > out of his hand <3027 yad > ;  but he did <6213 
<asah > according to his will <7522 ratsown > ,  and became 
<1431 gadal > great <1431 gadal > . 

 : 5 And as I was considering <0995 biyn > ,  behold <2009 
hinneh > ,  an he goat <5795 <ez > came <0935 bow> > from the 
west <4628 ma<arab > on the face <6440 paniym > of the whole 
<3605 kol > earth <0776 >erets > ,  and touched <5060 naga< > 
not the ground <0776 >erets > : and the goat <6842 tsaphiyr >  [ 
had ]  a notable <2380 chazuwth > horn <7161 qeren > between 
<0996 beyn > his eyes <5869 <ayin > . 

 : 6 And he came <0935 bow> > to the ram <0352 >ayil > that had  
[ two ]  horns <7161 qeren > ,  which <0834 >aher > I had seen 
<7200 ra>ah > standing <5975 <amad > before <6440 paniym > the 
river <0180 >uwbal > ,  and ran <7323 ruwts > unto him in the 
fury <2534 chemah > of his power <3581 koach > . 

 : 7 And I saw <7200 ra>ah > him come <5060 naga< > close <0681 
>etsel > unto the ram <0352 >ayil > ,  and he was moved with 
choler <4843 marar > against <0413 >el > him ,  and smote <5221 
nakah > the ram <0352 >ayil > ,  and brake <7665 shabar > his 
two <8147 sh@nayim > horns <7161 qeren > : and there was no 
<3808 lo> > power <3581 koach > in the ram <0352 >ayil > to 
stand <5975 <amad > before <6440 paniym > him ,  but he cast 
<7993 shalak > him down to the ground <0776 >erets > ,  and 
stamped <7429 ramac > upon him : and there was none <3808 lo> > 
that could deliver <5337 natsal > the ram <0352 >ayil > out of 
his hand <3027 yad > . 

 : 8 Therefore the he goat <6842 tsaphiyr > waxed very great 
<1431 gadal > : and when he was strong <6105 <atsam > ,  the 
great <1419 gadowl > horn <7161 qeren > was broken <7665 shabar 
> ;  and for it came <5927 <alah > up four <0702 >arba< > 
notable <2380 chazuwth > ones toward the four <0702 >arba< > 
winds <7307 ruwach > of heaven <8064 shamayim > . 

 : 9 And out of one <0259 >echad > of them came <3318 yatsa> > 
forth <3318 yatsa> > a little <4704 mitsts@<iyrah > horn <7161 
qeren > ,  which waxed exceeding <3499 yether > great <1431 
gadal > ,  toward <0413 >el > the south <5045 negeb > ,  and 
toward <0413 >el > the east <4217 mizrach > ,  and toward <0413 
>el > the pleasant <6643 ts@biy >  [ land ]  . 

 : 10 And it waxed great <1431 gadal > ,   [ even ]  to the host 
<6635 tsaba> > of heaven <8064 shamayim > ;  and it cast <5307 
naphal > down <5307 naphal >  [ some ]  of the host <6635 tsaba> 
> and of the stars <3556 kowkab > to the ground <0776 >erets > , 
 and stamped <7429 ramac > upon them . 

 : 11 Yea ,  he magnified <1431 gadal >  [ himself ]  even to 
the prince <8269 sar > of the host <6635 tsaba> > ,  and by him 
the daily <8548 tamiyd >  [ sacrifice ]  was taken <7311 ruwm > 
away <7311 ruwm > ,  and the place <4349 makown > of his 
sanctuary <4720 miqdash > was cast <7993 shalak > down . 

 : 12 And an host <6635 tsaba> > was given <5414 nathan >  [ him 
]  against <5921 <al > the daily <8548 tamiyd >  [ sacrifice ]  
by reason of transgression <6588 pesha< > ,  and it cast <7993 
shalak > down the truth <0571 >emeth > to the ground <0776 
>erets > ;  and it practised <6213 <asah > ,  and prospered 
<6743 tsalach > . 

 : 13 Then I heard <8085 shama< > one <0259 >echad > saint <6918 
qadowsh > speaking <1696 dabar > ,  and another <0259 >echad > 
saint <6918 qadowsh > said <0559 >amar > unto that certain <6422 
palmowniy >  [ saint ]  which spake <1696 dabar > ,  How <5704 
<ad > long <5704 <ad >  [ shall be ]  the vision <2377 chazown > 
 [ concerning ]  the daily <8548 tamiyd >  [ sacrifice ]  ,  and 
the transgression <6588 pesha< > of desolation <8074 shamem > ,  
to give <5414 nathan > both the sanctuary <6944 qodesh > and the 
host <6635 tsaba> > to be trodden <4823 mirmac > under foot 
<4823 mirmac > ? 

 : 14 And he said <0559 >amar > unto me ,  Unto two thousand 
<0505 >eleph > and three <7969 shalowsh > hundred <3967 me>ah > 
days ;  then shall the sanctuary <6944 qodesh > be cleansed 
<6663 tsadaq > . 

 : 15 .  And it came <1961 hayah > to pass ,  when I ,   [ even 
]  I Daniel <1840 Daniye>l > ,  had seen <7200 ra>ah > the 
vision <2377 chazown > ,  and sought <1245 baqash > for the 
meaning <0998 biynah > ,  then ,  behold <2009 hinneh > ,  there 
stood <5975 <amad > before <5048 neged > me as the appearance 
<4758 mar>eh > of a man <1397 geber > . 

 : 16 And I heard <8085 shama< > a man s <0120 >adam > voice 
<6963 qowl > between <0996 beyn >  [ the banks of ]  Ulai <0195 
>Uwlay > ,  which called <7121 qara> > ,  and said <0559 >amar > 
,  Gabriel <1403 Gabriy>el > ,  make this <1975 hallaz >  [ man 
]  to understand <0995 biyn > the vision <4758 mar>eh > . 

 : 17 So he came <0935 bow> > near <0681 >etsel > where I stood 
<5977 <omed > : and when he came <0935 bow> > ,  I was afraid 
<1204 ba<ath > ,  and fell <5307 naphal > upon my face <6440 
paniym > : but he said <0559 >amar > unto me ,  Understand <0995 
biyn > ,  O son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam > : for at the 
time <6256 <eth > of the end <7093 qets >  [ shall be ]  the 
vision <4758 mar>eh > . 

 : 18 Now as he was speaking <1696 dabar > with me ,  I was in a 
deep <7290 radam > sleep <7290 radam > on <5921 <al > my face 
<6440 paniym > toward the ground <0776 >erets > : but he touched 
<5060 naga< > me ,  and set <5975 <amad > me upright <5977 <omed 
> . 

 : 19 And he said <0559 >amar > ,  Behold <2005 hen > ,  I will 
make thee know <3045 yada< > what shall be in the last <0319 
>achariyth > end of the indignation <2195 za<am > : for at the 
time appointed <4150 mow<ed > the end <7093 qets >  [ shall be ] 
 . 

 : 20 The ram <0352 >ayil > which <0834 >aher > thou sawest 
<7200 ra>ah > having <1167 ba<al >  [ two ]  horns <7161 qeren > 
 [ are ]  the kings <4428 melek > of Media <4074 Maday > and 
Persia <6539 Parac > . 

 : 21 And the rough <8163 sa<iyr > goat <6842 tsaphiyr >  [ is ] 
 the king <4428 melek > of Grecia <3120 Yavan > : and the great 
<1419 gadowl > horn <7161 qeren > that  [ is ]  between <0996 
beyn > his eyes <5869 <ayin >  [ is ]  the first <7223 ri>shown 
> king <4428 melek > . 

 : 22 Now that being broken <7665 shabar > ,  whereas four <0702 
>arba< > stood <5975 <amad > up for it ,  four <0702 >arba< > 
kingdoms <4438 malkuwth > shall stand <5975 <amad > up out of 
the nation <1471 gowy > ,  but not in his power <3581 koach > . 

 : 23 And in the latter <0319 >achariyth > time of their kingdom 
<4438 malkuwth > ,  when the transgressors <6586 pasha< > are 
come to the full <8552 tamam > ,  a king <4428 melek > of fierce 
<5794 <az > countenance <6440 paniym > ,  and understanding 
<0995 biyn > dark <2420 chiydah > sentences <2420 chiydah > ,  
shall stand <5975 <amad > up . 

 : 24 And his power <3581 koach > shall be mighty <6105 <atsam > 
,  but not by his own power <3581 koach > : and he shall destroy 
<7843 shachath > wonderfully <6381 pala> > ,  and shall prosper

was sick <2470 chalah >  [ certain ]  days <3117 yowm > ;  
afterward I rose <6965 quwm > up ,  and did <6213 <asah > the

 : 1 .  In the first <0259 >echad > year <8141 shaneh > of 
Darius <1867 Dar<yavesh > the son <1121 ben > of Ahasuerus <0325

Kasdiy > ; 

 : 2 In the first <0259 >echad > year <8141 shaneh > of his 
reign <4427 malak > I Daniel <1840 Daniye>l > understood <0995 
biyn > by books <5612 cepher > the number <4557 micpar > of the 
years <8141 shaneh > ,  whereof <0834 >aher > the word <1697

Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > the prophet <5030 nabiy> > ,  that he

<8141 shaneh > in the desolations <2723 chorbah > of Jerusalem 
<3389 Y@ruwshalaim > . 

 : 3 And I set <5414 nathan > my face <6440 paniym > unto the 
Lord <0136 >Adonay > God <0430 >elohiym > ,  to seek <1245 
baqash > by prayer <8605 t@phillah > and supplications <8469 
tachanuwn > ,  with fasting <6685 tsowm > ,  and sackcloth <8242

 : 4 .  And I prayed <6419 palal > unto the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > 
my God <0430 >elohiym > ,  and made my confession <3034 yadah > ,
  and said <0559 >amar > ,  O Lord <0136 >Adonay > ,  the great 
<1419 gadowl > and dreadful <3372 yare> > God <0410 >el > ,  
keeping <8104 shamar > the covenant <1285 b@riyth > and mercy 
<2617 checed > to them that love <0157 >ahab > him ,  and to 
them that keep <8104 shamar > his commandments <4687 mitsvah > ; 

 : 5 We have sinned <2398 chata> > ,  and have committed <5753 
<avah > iniquity <5753 <avah > ,  and have done wickedly <7561 
rasha< > ,  and have rebelled <4775 marad > ,  even by departing 
<5493 cuwr > from thy precepts <4687 mitsvah > and from thy 
judgments <4941 mishpat > : 

 : 6 Neither <3808 lo> > have we hearkened <8085 shama< > unto 
thy servants <5650 <ebed > the prophets <5030 nabiy> > ,  which 
<0834 >aher > spake <1696 dabar > in thy name <8034 shem > to 
our kings <4428 melek > ,  our princes <8269 sar > ,  and our 
fathers <1> ,  and to all <3605 kol > the people <5971 <am > of 
the land <0776 >erets > . 

 : 7 O Lord <0136 >Adonay > ,  righteousness <6666 ts@daqah >  [ 
belongeth ]  unto thee ,  but unto us confusion <1322 bosheth > 
of faces <6440 paniym > ,  as at this <2088 zeh > day <3117 yowm

far <7350 rachowq > off ,  through all <3605 kol > the countries 
<0776 >erets > whither thou hast driven <5080 nadach > them ,  
because of their trespass <4604 ma<al > that they have 
trespassed <4603 ma<al > against thee . 

 : 8 O Lord <0136 >Adonay > ,  to us  [ belongeth ]  confusion 
<1322 bosheth > of face <6440 paniym > ,  to our kings <4428 
melek > ,  to our princes <8269 sar > ,  and to our fathers <1> ,
  because <0834 >aher > we have sinned <2398 chata> > against 
thee . 

 : 9 To the Lord <0136 >Adonay > our God <0430 >elohiym >  [ 
belong ]  mercies <7356 racham > and forgivenesses <5547 
c@liychah > ,  though <3588 kiy > we have rebelled <4775 marad > 
against him ; 

 : 10 Neither <3808 lo> > have we obeyed <8085 shama< > the 
voice <6963 qowl > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > our God <0430

 which <0834 >aher > he set <5414 nathan > before <6440 paniym > 
us by his servants <5650 <ebed > the prophets <5030 nabiy> > . 

 : 11 Yea ,  all <3605 kol > Israel <3478 Yisra>el > have 
transgressed <5674<abar > thy law <8451 towrah > ,  even by 
departing <5493 cuwr > ,  that they might not obey <8085 shama<

poured <5413 nathak > upon us ,  and the oath <7621 sh@buw<ah > 
that  [ is ]  written <3789 kathab > in the law <8451 towrah > 
of Moses <4872 Mosheh > the servant <5650 <ebed > of God <0430 
>elohiym > ,  because <3588 kiy > we have sinned <2398 chata> > 
against him . 

 : 12 And he hath confirmed <6965 quwm > his words <1697 dabar > 
,  which <0834 >aher > he spake <1696 dabar > against <5921 <al

judged <8199 shaphat > us ,  by bringing <0935 bow> > upon us a 
great <1419 gadowl > evil <7451 ra< > : for under <8478 tachath

done as hath been done <6213 <asah > upon Jerusalem <3389 
Y@ruwshalaim > . 

 : 13 As  [ it is ]  written <3789 kathab > in the law <8451 
towrah > of Moses <4872 Mosheh > ,  all <3605 kol > this <2063 
zo>th > evil <7451 ra< > is come <0935 bow> > upon us : yet made 
we not our prayer <2470 chalah > before the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > 
our God <0430 >elohiym > ,  that we might turn <7725 shuwb > 
from our iniquities <5771 <avon > ,  and understand <7919 sakal

 : 14 Therefore hath the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > watched <8245 
shaqad > upon the evil <7451 ra< > ,  and brought <0935 bow> > 
it upon us : for the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > our God <0430 >elohiym

works <4639 ma<aseh > which <0834 >aher > he doeth <6213 <asah > 
: for we obeyed <8085 shama< > not his voice <6963 qowl > . 

 : 15 And now <6258 <attah > ,  O Lord <0136 >Adonay > our God 
<0430 >elohiym > ,  that hast brought <3318 yatsa> > thy people 
<5971 <am > forth <3318 yatsa> > out of the land <0776 >erets > 
of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > with a mighty <2389 chazaq > hand 
<3027 yad > ,  and hast gotten <6213 <asah > thee renown <8034 
shem > ,  as at this day <3117 yowm > ;  we have sinned <2398 
chata> > ,  we have done wickedly <7561 rasha< > . 

 : 16 O Lord <0136 >Adonay > ,  according to all <3605 kol > thy 
righteousness <6666 ts@daqah > ,  I beseech <4994 na> > thee ,  
let thine anger <0639 >aph > and thy fury <2534 chemah > be 
turned <7725 shuwb > away from thy city <5892 <iyr > Jerusalem 
<3389 Y@ruwshalaim > ,  thy holy <6944 qodesh > mountain <2022

for the iniquities <5771 <avon > of our fathers <1> ,  Jerusalem 
<3389 Y@ruwshalaim > and thy people <5971 <am >  [ are become ]  
a reproach <2781 cherpah > to all <3605 kol >  [ that are ]  
about <5439 cabiyb > us . 

 : 17 Now <6258 <attah > therefore ,  O our God <0430 >elohiym > 
,  hear <8085 shama< > the prayer <8605 t@phillah > of thy 
servant <5650 <ebed > ,  and his supplications <8469 tachanuwn > 
,  and cause thy face <6440 paniym > to shine <0215 >owr > upon 
thy sanctuary <4720 miqdash > that is desolate <8074 shamem > ,  
for the Lord s <0136 >Adonay > sake <4616 ma<an > . 

 : 18 O my God <0430 >elohiym > ,  incline <5186 natah > thine 
ear <0241 >ozen > ,  and hear <8085 shama< > ;  open <6491 
paqach > thine eyes <5869 <ayin > ,  and behold <7200 ra>ah > 
our desolations <8074 shamem > ,  and the city <5892 <iyr > 
which <0834 >aher > is called <7121 qara> > by thy name <8034 
shem > : for we do not present <5307 naphal > our supplications 
<8469 tachanuwn > before <6440 paniym > thee for our 
righteousnesses <6666 ts@daqah > ,  but for thy great <7227 rab 
> mercies <7356 racham > . 

 : 19 O Lord <0136 >Adonay > ,  hear <8085 shama< > ;  O Lord 
<0136 >Adonay > ,  forgive <5545 calach > ;  O Lord <0136 
>Adonay > ,  hearken <7181 qashab > and do <6213 <asah > ;  
defer <0309 >achar > not ,  for thine own sake <4616 ma<an > ,  
O my God <0430 >elohiym > : for thy city <5892 <iyr > and thy 
people <5971 <am > are called <7121 qara> > by thy name <8034 
shem > . 

 : 20 .  And whiles <5750 <owd > I  [ was ]  speaking <1696 
dabar > ,  and praying <6419 palal > ,  and confessing <3034 
yadah > my sin <2403 chatta>ah > and the sin <2403 chatta>ah > 
of my people <5971 <am > Israel <3478 Yisra>el > ,  and 
presenting <5307 naphal > my supplication <8467 t@chinnah > 
before <6440 paniym > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > my God <0430 
>elohiym > for the holy <6944 qodesh > mountain <2022 har > of 
my God <0430 >elohiym > ; 

 : 21 Yea ,  whiles I  [ was ]  speaking <1696 dabar > in prayer 
<8605 t@phillah > ,  even the man <0376 >iysh > Gabriel <1403 
Gabriy>el > ,  whom <0834 >aher > I had seen <7200 ra>ah > in 
the vision <2377 chazown > at the beginning <8462 t@chillah > ,  
being caused to fly <3286 ya<aph > swiftly <3288 y@aph > ,  
touched <5060 naga< > me about the time <6256 <eth > of the 
evening <6153 <ereb > oblation <4503 minchah > . 

 : 22 And he informed <0995 biyn >  [ me ]  ,  and talked <1696

<3318 yatsa> > to give thee skill <7919 sakal > and 
understanding <0998 biynah > . 

 : 23 At the beginning <8462 t@chillah > of thy supplications 
<8469 tachanuwn > the commandment <1697 dabar > came <3318 
yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > ,  and I am come <0935 bow> > to 
shew <5046 nagad >  [ thee ]  ;  for thou  [ art ]  greatly 
beloved <2530 chamad > : therefore understand <0995 biyn > the 
matter <1697 dabar > ,  and consider <0995 biyn > the vision 
<2377 chazown > . 

 : 24 Seventy <7657 shib<iym .  > weeks <7620 shabuwa< > are 
determined <2852 chathak > upon thy people <5971 <am > and upon 
thy holy <6944 qodesh > city <5892 <iyr > ,  to finish <3607

<2856 chatham > of sins <2403 chatta>ah > ,  and to make 
reconciliation <3722 kaphar > for iniquity <5771 <avon > ,  and 
to bring <0935 bow> > in everlasting <5769 <owlam > 
righteousness <6664 tsedeq > ,  and to seal <2856 chatham > up 
the vision <2377 chazown > and prophecy <5030 nabiy> > ,  and to 
anoint <4886 mashach > the most <6944 qodesh > Holy <6944 qodesh

 : 25 Know <3045 yada< > therefore and understand <7919 sakal > ,
   [ that ]  fromthe going <4161 mowtsa> > forth <4161 mowtsa> > 
of the commandment <1697 dabar > to restore <7725 shuwb > and to 
build <1129 banah > Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > unto the 
Messiah <4899 mashiyach > the Prince <5057 nagiyd >  [ shall be

<7725 shuwb > ,  and the wall <2742 charuwts > ,  even in 
troublous <5916 <akar > times <6256 <eth > . 

 : 26 And after <0310 >achar > threescore <8346 shishshiym > and 
two <8147 sh@nayim > weeks <7620 shabuwa< > shall Messiah <4899 
mashiyach > be cut <3772 karath > off ,  but not for himself : 
and the people <5971 <am > of the prince <5057 nagiyd > that 
shall come <0935 bow> > shall destroy <7843 shachath > the city 
<5892 <iyr > and the sanctuary <6944 qodesh > ;  and the end

,  and unto the end <7093 qets > of the war <4421 milchamah > 
desolations <8074 shamem > are determined <2782 charats > . 

 : 27 And he shall confirm <1396 gabar > the covenant <1285

<7620 shabuwa< > : and in the midst <2677 chetsiy > of the week 
<7620 shabuwa< > he shall cause the sacrifice <2077 zebach > and 
the oblation <4503 minchah > to cease <7673 shabath > ,  and for 
the overspreading <3671 kanaph > of abominations <8251 shiqquwts

<5704 <ad > the consummation <3617 kalah > ,  and that 
determined <2782 charats > shall be poured <5413 nathak > upon

 : Daniel 10

 : 1 .  In the third <7969 shalowsh > year <8141 shaneh > of 
Cyrus <3566 Kowresh > king <4428 melek > of Persia <6539 Parac > 
a thing <1697 dabar > was revealed <1540 galah > unto Daniel 
<1840 Daniye>l > ,  whose <0834 >aher > name <8034 shem > was 
called <7121 qara> > Belteshazzar <1095 Belt@sha>tstsar > ;  and 
the thing <1697 dabar >  [ was ]  true <0571 >emeth > ,  but the 
time appointed <6635 tsaba> >  [ was ]  long <1419 gadowl > : 
and he understood <0995 biyn > the thing <1697 dabar > ,  and 
had understanding <0998 biynah > of the vision <4758 mar>eh > . 

 : 2 In those <1992 hem > days <3117 yowm > I Daniel <1840 
Daniye>l > was mourning <56> three <7969 shalowsh > full <3117 
yowm > weeks <7620 shabuwa< > . 

 : 3 I ate <0398 >akal > no <3808 lo> > pleasant <2530 chamad > 
bread <3899 lechem > ,  neither <3808 lo> > came <0935 bow> > 
flesh <1320 basar > nor <3808 lo> > wine <3196 yayin > in my

<3117 yowm > weeks <7620 shabuwa< > were fulfilled <4390 male> > 
. 

 : 4 And in the four <0702 >arba< > and twentieth <6242 <esriym

chodesh > ,  as I was by the side <3027 yad > of the great <1419 
gadowl > river <5104 nahar > ,  which <1931 huw> >  [ is ]  
Hiddekel <2313 Chiddeqel > ; 

 : 5 Then I lifted <5375 nasa> > up mine eyes <5869 <ayin > ,  
and looked <7200 ra>ah > ,  and behold <2009 hinneh > a certain 
<0259 >echad > man <0376 >iysh > clothed <3847 labash > in linen 
<0906 bad > ,  whose loins <4975 mothen >  [ were ]  girded 
<2296 chagar > with fine gold <3800 kethem > of Uphaz <0210 
>Uwphaz > : 

 : 6 His body <1472 g@viyah > also  [ was ]  like the beryl 
<8658 tarshiysh > ,  and his face <6440 paniym > as the 
appearance <4758 mar>eh > of lightning <1300 baraq > ,  and his 
eyes <5869 <ayin > as lamps <3940 lappiyd > of fire <0784 >esh > 
,  and his arms <2220 z@rowa< > and his feet <4772 marg@lah > 
like in colour <5869 <ayin > to polished <7044 qalal > brass 
<5178 n@chosheth > ,  and the voice <6963 qowl > of his words 
<1697 dabar > like the voice <6963 qowl > of a multitude <1995 
hamown > . 

 : 7 And I Daniel <1840 Daniye>l > alone <0905 bad > saw <7200 
ra>ah > the vision <4759 mar>ah > : for the men <0582 >enowsh > 
that were with me saw <7200 ra>ah > not the vision <4759 mar>ah

<5307 naphal > upon them ,  so that they fled <1272 barach > to 
hide <2244> themselves . 

 : 8 Therefore I was left <7604 sha>ar > alone <0905 bad > ,  
and saw <7200 ra>ah > this great <1419 gadowl > vision <4759 
mar>ah > ,  and there remained <7604 sha>ar > no <3808 lo> > 
strength <3581 koach > in me : for my comeliness <1935 howd > 
was turned <2015 haphak > in me into corruption <4889 mashchiyth

koach > . 

 : 9 Yet heard <8085 shama< > I the voice <6963 qowl > of his 
words <1697 dabar > : and when I heard <8085 shama< > the voice 
<6963 qowl > of his words <1697 dabar > ,  then was I in a deep 
<7290 radam > sleep <7290 radam > on my face <6440 paniym > ,  
and my face <6440 paniym > toward the ground <0776 >erets > . 

 : 10 .  And ,  behold <2009 hinneh > ,  an hand <3027 yad > 
touched <5060 naga< >me ,  which set <5128 nuwa< > me upon my 
knees <1290 berek > and  [ upon ]  the palms <3709 kaph > of my 
hands <3027 yad > . 

 : 11 And he said <0559 >amar > unto me ,  O Daniel <1840 
Daniye>l > ,  a man <0376 >iysh > greatly beloved <2530 chamad > 
,  understand <0995 biyn > the words <1697 dabar > that I speak

<7460> . 

 : 12 Then said <0559 >amar > he unto me ,  Fear <3372 yare> >

chasten <6031 <anah > thyself before <6440 paniym > thy God 
<0430 >elohiym > ,  thy words <1697 dabar > were heard <8085 
shama< > ,  and I am come <0935 bow> > for thy words <1697 dabar

 : 13 But the prince <8269 sar > of the kingdom <4438 malkuwth > 
of Persia <6539 Parac > withstood <5975 <amad > me one <0259 
>echad > and twenty <6242 <esriym > days <3117 yowm > : but ,  
lo <2009 hinneh > ,  Michael <4317 Miyka>el > ,  one <0259 
>echad > of the chief <7223 ri>shown > princes <8269 sar > ,  
came <0935 bow> > to help <5826 <azar > me ;  and I remained 
<3498 yathar > there <8033 sham > with the kings <4428 melek > 
of Persia <6539 Parac > . 

 : 14 Now I am come <0935 bow> > to make thee understand <0995 
biyn > what shall befall <7136 qarah > thy people <5971 <am > in 
the latter <0319 >achariyth > days <3117 yowm > : for yet <5750 
<owd > the vision <2377 chazown >  [ is ]  for  [ many ]  days 
<3117 yowm > . 

 : 15 And when he had spoken <1696 dabar > such <0428 >el - leh

<6440 paniym > toward the ground <0776 >erets > ,  and I became 
<0481 >alam > dumb <0481 >alam > . 

 : 16 And ,  behold <2009 hinneh > ,   [ one ]  like the 
similitude <1823 d@muwth > of the sons <1121 ben > of men <0120 
>adam > touched <5060 naga< > my lips <8193 saphah > : then I 
opened <6605 pathach > my mouth <6310 peh > ,  and spake <1696 
dabar > ,  and said <0559 >amar > unto him that stood <5975 
<amad > before <6440 paniym > me ,  O my lord <0113 >adown > ,  
by the vision <4758 mar>eh > my sorrows <6735 tsiyr > are turned 
<2015 haphak > upon me ,  and I have retained <6113 <atsar > no 
<3808 lo> > strength <3581 koach > . 

 : 17 For how <1963 heyk > can <3201 yakol > the servant <5650 
<ebed > of this <2088 zeh > my lord <0113 >adown > talk <1696 
dabar > with this <2088 zeh > my lord <0113 >adown > ?  for as 
for me ,  straightway <6258 <attah > there remained <5975 <amad

lo> > is there breath <5397 n@shamah > left <7604 sha>ar > in me 
. 

 : 18 Then there came again <3284 ya<anah > and touched <5060 
naga< > me  [ one ]  like the appearance <4758 mar>eh > of a man 
<0120 >adam > ,  and he strengthened <2388 chazaq > me , 

 : 19 And said <0559 >amar > ,  O man <0376 >iysh > greatly 
beloved <2530 chamad > ,  fear <3372 yare> > not : peace <7965 
shalowm >  [ be ]  unto thee ,  be strong <2388 chazaq > ,  yea ,
  be strong <2388 chazaq > .  And when he had spoken <1696 dabar

>amar > ,  Let my lord <0113 >adown > speak <1696 dabar > ;  for 
thou hast strengthened <2388 chazaq > me . 

 : 20 Then said <0559 >amar > he ,  Knowest <3045 yada< > thou 
wherefore <4100 mah > I come <0935 bow> > unto thee ?  and now 
<6258 <attah > will I return <7725 shuwb > to fight <3898 lacham

I am gone <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > ,  lo <2009 hinneh

<0935 bow> > . 

 : 21 But I will shew <5046 nagad > thee that which is noted 
<7559 rasham > in the scripture <3791 kathab > of truth <0571 
>emeth > : and  [ there is ]  none <0369 >ayin > that holdeth 
<2388 chazaq > with me in these <0428 >el - leh > things ,  but 
Michael <4317 Miyka>el > your prince <8269 sar > . 

 : Daniel 11

 : 1 .  Also I in the first <0259 >echad > year <8141 shaneh > 
of Darius <1867 Dar<yavesh > the Mede <4075 Maday > ,   [ even ] 
 I ,  stood <5975 <amad > to confirm <2388 chazaq > and to 
strengthen <4581 ma<owz > him . 

 : 2 And now <6258 <attah > will I shew <5046 nagad > thee the 
truth <0571 >emeth > .  Behold <2009 hinneh > ,  there shall 
stand <5975 <amad > up yet <5750 <owd > three <7969 shalowsh > 
kings <4428 melek > in Persia <6539 Parac > ;  and the fourth 
<7243 r@biy<iy > shall be far <1419 gadowl > richer <6238 <ashar 
> than  [ they ]  all <3605 kol > : and by his strength <2394 
chozqah > through his riches <6239 <osher > he shall stir <5782 
<uwr > up all <3605 kol > against the realm <4438 malkuwth > of 
Grecia <3120 Yavan > . 

 : 3 And a mighty <1368 gibbowr > king <4428 melek > shall stand 
<5975 <amad > up ,  that shall rule <4910 mashal > with great 
<7227 rab > dominion <4474 mimshal > ,  and do <6213 <asah > 
according to his will <7522 ratsown > . 

 : 4 And when he shall stand <5975 <amad > up ,  his kingdom 
<4438 malkuwth > shall be broken <7665 shabar > ,  and shall be 
divided <2673 chatsah > toward the four <0702 >arba< > winds 
<7307 ruwach > of heaven <8064 shamayim > ;  and not to his 
posterity <0319 >achariyth > ,  nor <3808 lo> > according to his 
dominion <4915 moshel > which <0834 >aher > he ruled <4910 
mashal > : for his kingdom <4438 malkuwth > shall be plucked 
<5428 nathash > up ,  even for others <0312 >acher > beside 
<0905 bad > those <0428 >el - leh > . 

 : 5 .  And the king <4428 melek > of the south <5045 negeb > 
shall be strong <2388 chazaq > ,  and  [ one ]  of his princes 
<8269 sar > ;  and he shall be strong <2388 chazaq > above <5921 
<al > him ,  and have dominion <4910 mashal > ;  his dominion 
<4474 mimshal >  [ shall be ]  a great <7227 rab > dominion 
<4474 mimshal > . 

 : 6 And in the end <7093 qets > of years <8141 shaneh > they 
shall join <2266 chabar > themselves together ;  for the king s 
<4428 melek > daughter <1323 bath > of the south <5045 negeb > 
shall come <0935 bow> > to the king <4428 melek > of the north 
<6828 tsaphown > to make <6213 <asah > an agreement <4339 
meyshar > : but she shall not retain <6113 <atsar > the power 
<3581 koach > of the arm <2220 z@rowa< > ;  neither <3808 lo> > 
shall he stand <5975 <amad > ,  nor his arm <2220 z@rowa< > : 
but she shall be given <5414 nathan > up ,  and they that 
brought <0935 bow> > her ,  and he that begat <3205 yalad > her ,
  and he that strengthened <2388 chazaq > her in  [ these ]  
times <6256 <eth > . 

 : 7 But out of a branch <5342 netser > of her roots <8328 
sheresh > shall  [ one ]  stand <5975 <amad > up in his estate 
<3653 ken > ,  which shall come <0935 bow> > with an army <2428 
chayil > ,  and shall enter <0935 bow> > into the fortress <4581 
ma<owz > of the king <4428 melek > of the north <6828 tsaphown > 
,  and shall deal <6213 <asah > against them ,  and shall 
prevail <2388 chazaq > : 

 : 8 And shall also <1571 gam > carry <0935 bow> > captives 
<7628 sh@biy > into Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > their gods <0430 
>elohiym > ,  with their princes <5257 n@ciyk > ,   [ and ]  
with their precious <2532 chemdah > vessels <3627 k@liy > of 
silver <3701 keceph > and of gold <2091 zahab > ;  and he shall 
continue <5975 <amad >  [ more ]  years <8141 shaneh > than the 
king <4428 melek > of the north <6828 tsaphown > . 

 : 9 So the king <4428 melek > of the south <5045 negeb > shall 
come <0935 bow> > into  [ his ]  kingdom <4438 malkuwth > ,  and 
shall return <7725 shuwb > into <0413 >el > his own land <0127 
>adamah > . 

 : 10 But his sons <1121 ben > shall be stirred <1624 garah > up 
,  and shall assemble <0622 >acaph > a multitude <1995 hamown > 
of great <7227 rab > forces <2428 chayil > : and  [ one ]  shall 
certainly come <0935 bow> > ,  and overflow <7857 shataph > ,  
and pass <5674 <abar > through : then shall he return <7725 
shuwb > ,  and be stirred <1624 garah > up ,   [ even ]  to his 
fortress <4581 ma<owz > . 

 : 11 And the king <4428 melek > of the south <5045 negeb > 
shall be moved with choler <4843 marar > ,  and shall come <3318 
yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > and fight <3898 lacham > with him ,
   [ even ]  with the king <4428 melek > of the north <6828 
tsaphown > : and he shall set <5975 <amad > forth <5975 <amad > 
a great <7227 rab > multitude <1995 hamown > ;  but the 
multitude <1995 hamown > shall be given <5414 nathan > into his 
hand <3027 yad > . 

 : 12  [ And ]  when he hath taken <5375 nasa> > away the 
multitude <1995 hamown > ,  his heart <3824 lebab > shall be 
lifted <7311 ruwm > up ;  and he shall cast <5307 naphal > down 
<5307 naphal >  [ many ]  ten <7239 ribbow > thousands <7239 
ribbow > : but he shall not be strengthened <5810 <azaz >  [ by 
it ]  . 

 : 13 For the king <4428 melek > of the north <6828 tsaphown > 
shall return <7725 shuwb > ,  and shall set <5975 <amad > forth 
a multitude <1995 hamown > greater <7227 rab > than <4480 min > 
the former <7223 ri>shown > ,  and shall certainly come <0935 
bow> > after <7093 qets > certain <6256 <eth > years <8141 
shaneh > with a great <1419 gadowl > army <2428 chayil > and 
with much riches <7399 r@kuwsh > . 

 : 14 And in those <1992 hem > times <6256 <eth > there shall 
many <7227 rab > stand <5975 <amad > up against <5921 <al > the 
king <4428 melek > of the south <5045 negeb > : also the robbers 
<6530 p@riyts > of thy people <5971 <am > shall exalt <5375 
nasa> > themselves to establish <5975 <amad > the vision <2377 
chazown > ;  but they shall fall <3782 kashal > . 

 : 15 So the king <4428 melek > of the north <6828 tsaphown > 
shall come <0935 bow> > ,  and cast <8210 shaphak > up a mount 
<5550 col@lah > ,  and take <3920 lakad > the most fenced <4013 
mibtsar > cities <5892 <iyr > : and the arms <2220 z@rowa< > of 
the south <5045 negeb > shall not withstand <5975 <amad > ,  
neither <0369 >ayin > his chosen <4005 mibchar > people <5971 
<am > ,  neither <0369 >ayin >  [ shall there be any ]  strength 
<3581 koach > to withstand <5975 <amad > . 

 : 16 But he that cometh <0935 bow> > against <0413 >el > him 
shall do <6213 <asah > according to his own <7522 ratsown > will 
<7522 ratsown > ,  and none <0369 >ayin > shall stand <5975 
<amad > before <6440 paniym > him : and he shall stand <5975 
<amad > in the glorious <6643 ts@biy > land <0776 >erets > ,  
which by his hand <3027 yad > shall be consumed <3615 kalah > . 

 : 17 He shall also set <7760 suwm > his face <6440 paniym > to 
enter <0935 bow> > with the strength <8633 toqeph > of his whole 
<3605 kol > kingdom <4438 malkuwth > ,  and upright <3477 yashar 
> ones with him ;  thus shall he do <6213 <asah > : and he shall 
give <5414 nathan > him the daughter <1323 bath > of women <0802 
>ishshah > ,  corrupting <7843 shachath > her : but she shall 
not stand <5975 <amad >  [ on his side ]  ,  neither <3808 lo> > 
be for him . 

 : 18 After this shall he turn <7725 shuwb > his face <6440 
paniym > unto the isles <0339 >iy > ,  and shall take <3920 
lakad > many <7227 rab > : but a prince <7101 qatsiyn > for his 
own behalf shall cause the reproach <2781 cherpah > offered by 
him to cease <7673 shabath > ;  without <1115 biltiy > his own 
reproach <2781 cherpah > he shall cause  [ it ]  to turn <7725 
shuwb > upon him . 

 : 19 Then he shall turn <7725 shuwb > his face <6440 paniym > 
toward the fort <4581 ma<owz > of his own land <0776 >erets > : 
but he shall stumble <3782 kashal > and fall <5307 naphal > ,  
and not be found <4672 matsa> > . 

 : 20 Then shall stand <5975 <amad > up in his estate <3653 ken 
> a raiser <5674 <abar > of taxes <5065 nagas >  [ in ]  the 
glory <1925 heder > of the kingdom <4438 malkuwth > : but within 
few <0259 >echad > days <3117 yowm > he shall be destroyed <7665 
shabar > ,  neither <3808 lo> > in anger <0639 >aph > ,  nor 
<3808 lo> > in battle <4421 milchamah > . 

 : 21 .  And in his estate <3653 ken > shall stand <5975 <amad > 
up a vile <0959 bazah > person ,  to whom <5921 <al > they shall 
not give <5414 nathan > the honour <1935 howd > of the kingdom 
<4438 malkuwth > : but he shall come <0935 bow> > in peaceably 
<7962 shalvah > ,  and obtain <2388 chazaq > the kingdom <4438 
malkuwth > by flatteries <2519 chalaqlaqqah > . 

 : 22 And with the arms <2220 z@rowa< > of a flood <7858 sheteph

paniym > him ,  and shall be broken <7665 shabar > ;  yea <1571 
gam > ,  also <1571 gam > the prince <5057 nagiyd > of the 
covenant <1285 b@riyth > . 

 : 23 And after the league <2266 chabar >  [ made ]  with him he 
shall work <6213 <asah > deceitfully <4820 mirmah > : for he 
shall come <5927 <alah > up ,  and shall become <6105 <atsam > 
strong <6105 <atsam > with a small <4592 m@<at > people <1471 
gowy > . 

 : 24 He shall enter <0935 bow> > peaceably <7962 shalvah > even 
upon the fattest <4924 mashman > places of the province <4082 
m@diynah > ;  and he shall do <6213 <asah >  [ that ]  which 
<0834 >aher > his fathers <1> have not done <6213 <asah > ,  nor 
his fathers <1>  fathers <1> ;  he shall scatter <0967 bazar > 
among them the prey <0961 bizzah > ,  and spoil <7998 shalal > , 
 and riches <7399 r@kuwsh > :  [ yea ]  ,  and he shall forecast 
<2803 chashab > his devices <4284 machashabah > against <5921 
<al > the strong <4013 mibtsar > holds <4013 mibtsar > ,  even 
for a time <6256 <eth > . 

 : 25 And he shall stir <5782 <uwr > up his power <3581 koach > 
and his courage <3824 lebab > against <5921 <al > the king <4428 
melek > of the south <5045 negeb > with a great <1419 gadowl > 
army <2428 chayil > ;  and the king <4428 melek > of the south 
<5045 negeb > shall be stirred <1624 garah > up to battle <4421 
milchamah > with a very great <1419 gadowl > and mighty <6099 
<atsuwm > army <2428 chayil > ;  but he shall not stand <5975 
<amad > : for they shall forecast <2803 chashab > devices <4284 
machashabah > against <5921 <al > him . 

 : 26 Yea ,  they that feed <0398 >akal > of the portion <6598 
pathbag > of his meat <6598 pathbag > shall destroy <7665 shabar

shataph > : and many <7227 rab > shall fall <5307 naphal > down 
slain <2491 chalal > . 

 : 27 And both <8147 sh@nayim > these kings <4428 melek >  
hearts <3824 lebab >  [ shall be ]  to do mischief <4827 mera< > 
,  and they shall speak <1696 dabar > lies <3576 kazab > at 
<5921 <al > one <0259 >echad > table <7979 shulchan > ;  but it 
shall not prosper <6743 tsalach > : for yet <5750 <owd > the end 
<7093 qets >  [ shall be ]  at the time appointed <4150 mow<ed > 
. 

 : 28 Then shall he return <7725 shuwb > into his land <0776 
>erets > with great <1419 gadowl > riches <7399 r@kuwsh > ;  and 
his heart <3824 lebab >  [ shall be ]  against <5921 <al > the 
holy <6944 qodesh > covenant <1285 b@riyth > ;  and he shall do 
<6213 <asah >  [ exploits ]  ,  and return <7725 shuwb > to his 
own land <0776 >erets > . 

 : 29 At the time appointed <4150 mow<ed > he shall return <7725 
shuwb > ,  and come <0935 bow> > toward the south <5045 negeb > ;
  but it shall not be as the former <7223 ri>shown > ,  or as 
the latter <0314 >acharown > . 

 : 30 For the ships <6716 tsiy > of Chittim <3794 Kittiy > shall 
come <0935 bow> > against him : therefore he shall be grieved 
<3512 ka>ah > ,  and return <7725 shuwb > ,  and have 
indignation <2194 za<am > against <5921 <al > the holy <6944 
qodesh > covenant <1285 b@riyth > : so shall he do <6213 <asah > 
;  he shall even return <7725 shuwb > ,  and have intelligence 
<0995 biyn > with them that forsake <5800 <azab > the holy <6944 
qodesh > covenant <1285 b@riyth > . 

 : 31 And arms <2220 z@rowa< > shall stand <5975 <amad > on his 
part <2506 cheleq > ,  and they shall pollute <2490 chalal > the 
sanctuary <4720 miqdash > of strength <4581 ma<owz > ,  and 
shall take <5493 cuwr > away <5493 cuwr > the daily <8548 tamiyd

abomination <8251 shiqquwts > that maketh desolate <8074 shamem

 : 32 And such as do wickedly <7561 rasha< > against the 
covenant <1285 b@riyth > shall he corrupt <2610 chaneph > by 
flatteries <2514 chalaqqah > : but the people <5971 <am > that 
do know <3045 yada< > their God <0430 >elohiym > shall be strong 
<2388 chazaq > ,  and do <6213 <asah >  [ exploits ]  . 

 : 33 And they that understand <7919 sakal > among the people 
<5971 <am > shall instruct <0995 biyn > many <7227 rab > : yet 
they shall fall <3782 kashal > by the sword <2719 chereb > ,  
and by flame <3852 lehabah > ,  by captivity <7628 sh@biy > ,  
and by spoil <0961 bizzah > ,   [ many ]  days <3117 yowm > . 

 : 34 Now when they shall fall <3782 kashal > ,  they shall be 
holpen <5826 <azar > with a little <4592 m@<at > help <5828 
<ezer > : but many <7227 rab > shall cleave <3867 lavah > to 
them with flatteries <2519 chalaqlaqqah > . 

 : 35 And  [ some ]  of them of understanding <7919 sakal > 
shall fall <3782 kashal > ,  to try <6884 tsaraph > them ,  and 
to purge <1305 barar > ,  and to make  [ them ]  white <3835 
laban > ,   [ even ]  to the time <6256 <eth > of the end <7093 
qets > : because  [ it is ]  yet <5750 <owd > for a time 
appointed <4150 mow<ed > . 

 : 36 And the king <4428 melek > shall do <6213 <asah > 
according to his will<7522 ratsown > ;  and he shall exalt <7311 
ruwm > himself ,  and magnify <1431 gadal > himself above <5921 
<al > every <3605 kol > god <0410 >el > ,  and shall speak <1696 
dabar > marvellous <6381 pala> > things against <5921 <al > the 
God <0410 >el > of gods <0410 >el > ,  and shall prosper <6743 
tsalach > till <5704 <ad > the indignation <2195 za<am > be 
accomplished <3615 kalah > : for that that is determined <2782 
charats > shall be done <6213 <asah > . 

 : 37 Neither <3808 lo> > shall he regard <0995 biyn > the God 
<0430 >elohiym > of his fathers <1> ,  nor the desire <2532 
chemdah > of women <0802 >ishshah > ,  nor <3808 lo> > regard 
<0995 biyn > any <3605 kol > god <0433 >elowahh > : for he shall 
magnify <1431 gadal > himself above <5921 <al > all <3605 kol > .
 

 : 38 But in his estate <3653 ken > shall he honour <3513 kabad

<0433 >elowahh > whom <0834 >aher > his fathers <1> knew <3045

 : 1 .  And at that time <6256 <eth > shall Michael <4317

prince <8269 sar > which standeth <5975 <amad > for the children

time <6256 <eth > of trouble <6869 tsarah > ,  such <0834 >aher

<4422 malat > ,  every <3605 kol > one that shall be found <4672 
matsa> > written <3789 kathab > in the book <5612 cepher > . 

 : 2 And many <7227 rab > of them that sleep <3463 yashen > in 
the dust <6083 <aphar > of the earth <0127 >adamah > shall awake 
<6974 quwts > ,  some <0428 >el - leh > to everlasting <5769

shame <2781 cherpah >  [ and ]  everlasting <5769 <owlam > 
contempt <1860 d@ra>own > . 

 : 3 And they that be wise <7919 sakal > shall shine <2094 zahar

tsadaq > as the stars <3556 kowkab > for ever <5769 <owlam > and 
ever <5703 <ad > . 

 : 4 But thou ,  O Daniel <1840 Daniye>l > ,  shut <5640 catham

book <5612 cepher > ,   [ even ]  to the time <6256 <eth > of 
the end <7093 qets > : many <7227 rab > shall run <7751 shuwt > 
to and fro <7751 shuwt > ,  and knowledge <1847 da<ath > shall 
be increased <7235 rabah > . 

 : 5 .  Then I Daniel <1840 Daniye>l > looked <7200 ra>ah > ,  
and ,  behold <2009 hinneh > ,  there stood <5975 <amad > other 
<0312 >acher > two <8147 sh@nayim > ,  the one <0259 >echad > on 
this <2008 hennah > side of the bank <8193 saphah > of the river 
<2975 y@<or > ,  and the other <0259 >echad > on that side of 
the bank <8193 saphah > of the river <2975 y@<or > . 

 : 6 And  [ one ]  said <0559 >amar > to the man <0376 >iysh > 
clothed <3847 labash > in linen <0906 bad > ,  which <0834 >aher

y@<or > ,  How <5704 <ad > long <5704 <ad >  [ shall it be to ]  
the end <7093 qets > of these wonders <6382 pele> > ? 

 : 7 And I heard <8085 shama< > the man <0376 >iysh > clothed 
<3847 labash > in linen <0906 bad > ,  which <0834 >aher >  [ 
was ]  upon the waters <4325 mayim > of the river <2975 y@<or > ,
  when he held <7311 ruwm > up his right <3225 yamiyn > hand 
<3225 yamiyn > and his left <8040 s@mo>wl > hand <8040 s@mo>wl > 
unto heaven <8064 shamayim > ,  and sware <7650 shaba< > by him 
that liveth <2416 chay > for ever <5769 <owlam > that  [ it 
shall be ]  for a time <4150 mow<ed > ,  times <4150 mow<ed > ,  
and an half <2677 chetsiy > ;  and when he shall have 
accomplished <3615 kalah > to scatter <5310 naphats > the power 
<3027 yad > of the holy <6944 qodesh > people <5971 <am > ,  all 
<3605 kol > these <0428 >el - leh >  [ things ]  shall be 
finished <3615 kalah > . 

 : 8 And I heard <8085 shama< > ,  but I understood <0995 biyn > 
not : then said <0559 >amar > I ,  O my Lord <0113 >adown > ,  
what <4100 mah >  [ shall be ]  the end <0319 >achariyth > of 
these <0428 >el - leh >  [ things ]  ? 

 : 9 And he said <0559 >amar > ,  Go <3212 yalak > thy way ,  
Daniel <1840 Daniye>l > : for the words <1697 dabar >  [ are ]  
closed <5640 catham > up and sealed <2856 chatham > till <5704 
<ad > the time <6256 <eth > of the end <7093 qets > . 

 : 10 Many <7227 rab > shall be purified <1305 barar > ,  and 
made white <3835 laban > ,  and tried <6884 tsaraph > ;  but the 
wicked <7563 rasha< > shall do wickedly <7561 rasha< > : and 
none <3808 lo> > of the wicked <7563 rasha< > shall understand 
<0995 biyn > ;  but the wise <7919 sakal > shall understand 
<0995 biyn > . 

 : 11 And from the time <6256 <eth >  [ that ]  the daily <8548 
tamiyd >  [ sacrifice ]  shall be taken <5493 cuwr > away <5493 
cuwr > ,  and the abomination <8251 shiqquwts > that maketh 
desolate <8074 shamem > set <5414 nathan > up ,   [ there shall 
be ]  a thousand <0505 >eleph > two hundred <3967 me>ah > and 
ninety <8673 tish<iym > days <3117 yowm > . 

 : 12 Blessed <0835 >esher >  [ is ]  he that waiteth <2442 
chakah > ,  and cometh <5060 naga< > to the thousand <0505

<2568 chamesh > and thirty <7970 sh@lowshiym > days <3117 yowm > 
. 

 : 13 But go <3212 yalak > thou thy way <1870 derek > till the 
end <7093 qets >  [ be ]  :  for thou shalt rest <5117 nuwach > ,
  and stand <5975 <amad > in thy lot <1486 gowral > at the end 
<7093 qets > of the days <3117 yowm > .
