Daniel 1



1:1. In the third <7969> year <8141> of the reign <4438> of 
Jehoiakim <3079> king <4428> of Judah <3063> came <0935> 
Nebuchadnezzar <5019> king <4428> of Babylon <0894> unto 
Jerusalem <3389>, and besieged <6696> it.



1:2 And the Lord <0136> gave <5414> Jehoiakim <3079> king <4428> 
of Judah <3063> into his hand <3027>, with part <7117> of the 
vessels <3627> of the house <1004> of God <0430>: which he 
carried <0935> into the land <0776> of Shinar <8152> to the 
house <1004> of his god <0430>; and he brought <0935> the 
vessels <3627> into the treasure <0214> house <1004> of his god 
<0430>.



1:3 And the king <4428> spake <0559> unto Ashpenaz <0828> the 
master <7227> of his eunuchs <5631>, that he should bring <0935> 
[certain] of the children <1121> of Israel <3478>, and of the 
king's <4410> seed <2233>, and of the princes <6579>;



1:4 Children <3206> in whom [was] no <0369> blemish <3971>, but 
well <2896> favoured <4758>, and skilful <7919> in all <3605> 
wisdom <2451>, and cunning <3045> in knowledge <1847>, and 
understanding <0995> science <4093>, and such as [had] ability 
<3581> in them to stand <5975> in the king's <4428> palace 
<1964>, and whom they might teach <3925> the learning <5612> and 
the tongue <3956> of the Chaldeans <3779>.



1:5 And the king <4428> appointed <4487> them a daily <3117> 
provision <1697> of the king's <4428> meat <6598>, and of the 
wine <3196> which he drank <4960>: so nourishing <1431> them 
three <7969> years <8141>, that at the end <7117> thereof they 
might stand <5975> before <6440> the king <4428>.



1:6 Now among these <1992> were of the children <1121> of Judah 
<3063>, Daniel <1840>, Hananiah <2608>, Mishael <4332>, and 
Azariah <5838>:



1:7 Unto whom <1992> the prince <8269> of the eunuchs <5631> 
gave <7760> names <8034>: for he gave <7760> unto Daniel <1840> 
[the name <8034>] of Belteshazzar <1095>; and to Hananiah <2608>,
 of Shadrach <7714>; and to Mishael <4332>, of Meshach <4335>; 
and to Azariah <5838>, of Abednego <5664>.



1:8. But Daniel <1840> purposed <7760> in his heart <3820> that 
he would not defile <1351> himself with the portion <6598> of 
the king's <4428> meat <6598>, nor with the wine <3196> which he 
drank <4960>: therefore he requested <1245> of the prince <8269> 
of the eunuchs <5631> that he might not defile <1351> himself.



1:9 Now God <0430> had brought <5414> Daniel <1840> into favour 
<2617> and tender love with the prince <8269> of the eunuchs 
<5631>.



1:10 And the prince <8269> of the eunuchs <5631> said <0559> 
unto Daniel <1840>, I fear <3373> my lord <0113> the king <4428>,
 who <0834> hath appointed <4487> your meat <3978> and your 
drink <4960>: for why <4100> should he see <7200> your faces 
<6440> worse <2196> liking than <4480> the children <3206> which 
<0834> [are] of your sort <1524>? then shall ye make [me] 
endanger <2325> my head <7218> to the king <4428>.



1:11 Then said <0559> Daniel <1840> to Melzar <4453>, whom 
<0834> the prince <8269> of the eunuchs <5631> had set <4487> 
over <5921> Daniel <1840>, Hananiah <2608>, Mishael <4332>, and 
Azariah <5838>,



1:12 Prove <5254> thy servants <5650>, I beseech <4994> thee, 
ten <6235> days <3117>; and let them give <5414> us pulse <2235> 
to eat <0398>, and water <4325> to drink <8354>.



1:13 Then let our countenances <4758> be looked <7200> upon 
before <6440> thee, and the countenance <4758> of the children 
<3206> that eat <0398> of the portion <6598> of the king's 
<4428> meat <6598>: and as thou seest <7200>, deal <6213> with 
thy servants <5650>.



1:14 So he consented <8085> to them in this <2088> matter <1697>,
 and proved <5254> them ten <6235> days <3117>.



1:15 And at the end <7117> of ten <6235> days <3117> their 
countenances <4758> appeared <7200> fairer <2896> and fatter 
<1277> in flesh <1320> than <4480> all <3605> the children 
<3206> which did eat <0398> the portion <6598> of the king's 
<4428> meat <6598>.



1:16 Thus Melzar <4453> took <5375> away the portion <6598> of 
their meat <6598>, and the wine <3196> that they should drink 
<4960>; and gave <5414> them pulse <2235>.



1:17. As for these <0428> four <0702> children <3206>, God 
<0430> gave <5414> them knowledge <4093> and skill <7919> in all 
<3605> learning <5612> and wisdom <2451>: and Daniel <1840> had 
understanding <0995> in all <3605> visions <2377> and dreams 
<2472>.



1:18 Now at the end <7117> of the days <3117> that the king 
<4428> had said <0559> he should bring <0935> them in, then the 
prince <8269> of the eunuchs <5631> brought <0935> them in 
before <6440> Nebuchadnezzar <5019>.



1:19 And the king <4428> communed <1696> with them; and among 
them all <3605> was found <4672> none <3808> like Daniel <1840>, 
Hananiah <2608>, Mishael <4332>, and Azariah <5838>: therefore 
stood <5975> they before <6440> the king <4428>.



1:20 And in all <3605> matters <1697> of wisdom <2451> [and] 
understanding <0998>, that the king <4428> enquired <1245> of 
them, he found <4672> them ten <6235> times better <3027> than 
<5921> all <3605> the magicians <2748> [and] astrologers <0825> 
that [were] in all <3605> his realm <4438>.



1:21 And Daniel <1840> continued <1961> [even] unto the first 
<0259> year <8141> of king <4428> Cyrus <3566>.



Daniel 2



2:1. And in the second <8147> year <8141> of the reign <4438> of 
Nebuchadnezzar <5019> Nebuchadnezzar <5019> dreamed <2492> 
dreams <2472>, wherewith his spirit <7307> was troubled <6470>, 
and his sleep <8142> brake <1961> from him.



2:2 Then the king <4428> commanded <0559> to call <7121> the 
magicians <2748>, and the astrologers <0825>, and the sorcerers 
<3784>, and the Chaldeans <3779>, for to shew <5046> the king 
<4428> his dreams <2472>. So they came <0935> and stood <5975> 
before <6440> the king <4428>.



2:3 And the king <4428> said <0559> unto them, I have dreamed 
<2492> a dream <2472>, and my spirit <7307> was troubled <6470> 
to know <3045> the dream <2472>.



2:4 Then spake <1696> the Chaldeans <3779> to the king <4428> in 
Syriack <0762>, O king <4430>, live <2418> for ever <5957>: tell 
<0560> thy servants <5649> the dream <2493>, and we will shew 
<2324> the interpretation <6591>.



2:5 The king <4430> answered <6032> and said <0560> to the 
Chaldeans <3779>, The thing <4406> is gone <0230> from me: if 
<2006> ye will not make known <3046> unto me the dream <2493>, 
with the interpretation <6591> thereof, ye shall be cut <5648> 
in pieces <1917>, and your houses <1005> shall be made <7761> a 
dunghill <5122>.



2:6 But if <2006> ye shew <2324> the dream <2493>, and the 
interpretation <6591> thereof, ye shall receive <6902> of me 
gifts <4978> and rewards <5023> and great <7690> honour <3367>: 
therefore <2006> shew <2324> me the dream <2493>, and the 
interpretation <6591> thereof.



2:7 They answered <6032> again <8579> and said <0560>, Let the 
king <4430> tell <0560> his servants <5649> the dream <2493>, 
and we will shew <2324> the interpretation <6591> of it.



2:8 The king <4430> answered <6032> and said <0560>, I know 
<3046> of certainty <3330> that ye would gain <2084> the time 
<5732>, because ye see <2370> the thing <4406> is gone <0230> 
from me.



2:9 But if <2006> ye will not make known <3046> unto me the 
dream <2493>, [there is but] one <2298> decree <1882> for you: 
for ye have prepared <2164> lying <3538> and corrupt <7844> 
words <4406> to speak <0560> before <6925> me, till <5704> the 
time <5732> be changed <8133>: therefore <2006> tell <0560> me 
the dream <2493>, and I shall know <3046> that ye can shew 
<2324> me the interpretation <6591> thereof.



2:10 The Chaldeans <3779> answered <6032> before <6925> the king 
<4430>, and said <0560>, There is not a man <0606> upon the 
earth <3007> that can <3202> shew <2324> the king's <4430> 
matter <4406>: therefore [there is] no king <4430>, lord <7229>, 
nor ruler <7990>, [that] asked <7593> such <1836> things at any 
<3606> magician <2749>, or astrologer <0826>, or Chaldean <3777>.



2:11 And [it is] a rare <3358> thing <4406> that the king <4430> 
requireth <7593>, and there is none <3809> other <0321> that can 
shew <2324> it before <6925> the king <4430>, except <3861> the 
gods <0426>, whose <1768> dwelling <4070> is not with flesh 
<1321>.



2:12 For this <1836> cause the king <4430> was angry <1149> and 
very <7690> furious <7108>, and commanded <0560> to destroy <7> 
all <3606> the wise <2445> [men] of Babylon <0895>.



2:13 And the decree <1882> went <5312> forth <5312> that the 
wise <2445> [men] should be slain <6992>; and they sought <1158> 
Daniel <1841> and his fellows <2269> to be slain <6992>.



2:14. Then <0116> Daniel <1841> answered <8421> with counsel 
<5843> and wisdom <2942> to Arioch <0746> the captain <7229> of 
the king's <4430> guard <2877>, which <1768> was gone <5312> 
forth <5312> to slay <6992> the wise <2445> [men] of Babylon 
<0895>:



2:15 He answered <6032> and said <0560> to Arioch <0746> the 
king's <4430> captain <7990>, Why [is] the decree <1882> [so] 
hasty <2685> from the king <4430>? Then <0116> Arioch <0746> 
made the thing <4406> known <3046> to Daniel <1841>.



2:16 Then Daniel <1841> went <5954> in, and desired <1156> of 
the king <4430> that he would give <5415> him time <2166>, and 
that he would shew <2324> the king <4430> the interpretation 
<6591>.



2:17 Then <0116> Daniel <1841> went <0236> to his house <1005>, 
and made the thing <4406> known <3046> to Hananiah <2608>, 
Mishael <4332>, and Azariah <5839>, his companions <2269>:



2:18 That they would desire <1156> mercies <7359> of the God 
<0426> of heaven <8065> concerning <5922> this <1836> secret 
<7328>; that Daniel <1841> and his fellows <2269> should not 
perish <7> with the rest <7606> of the wise <2445> [men] of 
Babylon <0895>.



2:19 Then <0116> was the secret <7328> revealed <1541> unto 
Daniel <1841> in a night <3916> vision <2376>. Then <0116> 
Daniel <1841> blessed <1289> the God <0426> of heaven <8065>.



2:20 Daniel <1841> answered <6032> and said <0560>, Blessed 
<1289> be the name <8036> of God <0426> for ever <5957> and ever 
<5957>: for wisdom <2452> and might <1370> are his:



2:21 And he changeth <8133> the times <5732> and the seasons 
<2166>: he removeth <5709> kings <4430>, and setteth <6966> up 
kings <4430>: he giveth <3052> wisdom <2452> unto the wise 
<2445>, and knowledge <0998> to them that know <3046> 
understanding <0999>:



2:22 He revealeth <1541> the deep <5994> and secret <5642> 
things: he knoweth <3046> what <4101> [is] in the darkness 
<2816>, and the light <5094> dwelleth <8271> with him.



2:23 I thank <3029> thee, and praise <7624> thee, O thou God 
<0426> of my fathers <2>, who <1768> hast given <3052> me wisdom 
<2452> and might <1370>, and hast made known <3046> unto me now 
<3705> what <1768> we desired <1156> of thee: for thou hast [now 
<3705>] made known <3046> unto us the king's <4430> matter 
<4406>.



2:24. Therefore Daniel <1841> went <5954> in unto Arioch <0746>, 
whom <1768> the king <4430> had ordained <4483> to destroy <7> 
the wise <2445> [men] of Babylon <0895>: he went <0236> and said 
<0560> thus <3652> unto him; Destroy <7> not the wise <2445> 
[men] of Babylon <0895>: bring <5924> me in before <6925> the 
king <4430>, and I will shew <2324> unto the king <4430> the 
interpretation <6591>.



2:25 Then <0116> Arioch <0746> brought <5954> in Daniel <1841> 
before <6925> the king <4430> in haste <0927>, and said <0560> 
thus <3652> unto him, I have found <4672> a man <1400> of the 
captives of Judah <3061>, that will make known <3046> unto the 
king <4430> the interpretation <6591>.



2:26 The king <4430> answered <6032> and said <0560> to Daniel 
<1841>, whose <1768> name <8036> [was] Belteshazzar <1096>, Art 
<0383> thou able <3546> to make known <3046> unto me the dream 
<2493> which <1768> I have seen <2370>, and the interpretation 
<6591> thereof?



2:27 Daniel <1841> answered <6032> in the presence <6925> of the 
king <4430>, and said <0560>, The secret <7328> which <1768> the 
king <4430> hath demanded <7593> cannot the wise <2445> [men], 
the astrologers <0826>, the magicians <2749>, the soothsayers 
<1505>, shew <2324> unto the king <4430>;



2:28 But there is a God <0426> in heaven <8065> that revealeth 
<1541> secrets <7328>, and maketh known <3046> to the king 
<4430> Nebuchadnezzar <5020> what <4101> shall be in the latter 
<0320> days <3118>. Thy dream <2493>, and the visions <2376> of 
thy head <7217> upon thy bed <4903>, are these <1836>;



2:29 As for thee, O king <4430>, thy thoughts <7476> came <5559> 
[into thy mind] upon thy bed <4903>, what <4101> should come 
<1934> to pass hereafter: and he that revealeth <1541> secrets 
<7328> maketh known <3046> to thee what <4101> shall come <1934> 
to pass.



2:30 But as for me, this <1836> secret <7328> is not revealed 
<1541> to me for [any] wisdom <2452> that I have <0383> more 
<4481> than <4481> any <3606> living <2417>, but for [their] 
sakes <1701> that shall make known <3046> the interpretation 
<6591> to the king <4430>, and that thou mightest know <3046> 
the thoughts <7476> of thy heart <3825>.



2:31. Thou, O king <4430>, sawest <2370>, and behold <0431> a 
great <7690> image <6755>. This <1797> great <7229> image <6755>,
 whose brightness <2122> [was] excellent <3493>, stood <6966> 
before <6903> thee; and the form <7299> thereof [was] terrible 
<1763>.



2:32 This <1931> image's <6755> head <7217> [was] of fine <2869> 
gold <1722>, his breast <2306> and his arms <1672> of silver 
<3702>, his belly <4577> and his thighs <3410> of brass <5174>,



2:33 His legs <8243> of iron <6523>, his feet <7271> part <4481> 
of iron <6523> and part <4481> of clay <2635>.



2:34 Thou sawest <2370> till <5704> that a stone <69> was cut 
<1505> out without hands <3028>, which smote <4223> the image 
<6755> upon his feet <7271> [that were] of iron <6523> and clay 
<2635>, and brake <1855> them to pieces.



2:35 Then <0116> was the iron <6523>, the clay <2635>, the brass 
<5174>, the silver <3702>, and the gold <1722>, broken <1854> to 
pieces together <2298>, and became <1934> like the chaff <5784> 
of the summer <7007> threshingfloors <0147>; and the wind <7308> 
carried <5376> them away, that no place <0870> was found <7912> 
for them: and the stone <69> that smote <4223> the image <6755> 
became <1934> a great <7229> mountain <2906>, and filled <4391> 
the whole <3606> earth <0772>.



2:36 This <1836> [is] the dream <2493>; and we will tell <0560> 
the interpretation <6591> thereof before <6925> the king <4430>.



2:37 Thou, O king <4430>, [art] a king <4430> of kings <4430>: 
for the God <0426> of heaven <8065> hath given <3052> thee a 
kingdom <4437>, power <2632>, and strength <8632>, and glory 
<3367>.



2:38 And wheresoever the children <1123> of men <0606> dwell 
<1753>, the beasts <2423> of the field <1251> and the fowls 
<5776> of the heaven <8065> hath he given <3052> into thine hand 
<3028>, and hath made thee ruler <7981> over them all <3606>. 
Thou [art] this <1931> head <7217> of gold <1722>.



2:39 And after <0870> thee shall arise <6965> another <0317> 
kingdom <4437> inferior <0772> to thee, and another <0317> third 
<8523> kingdom <4437> of brass <5174>, which <1768> shall bear 
<7981> rule <7981> over all <3606> the earth <0772>.



2:40 And the fourth <7244> kingdom <4437> shall be strong <8624> 
as iron <6523>: forasmuch as iron <6523> breaketh <1855> in 
pieces and subdueth <2827> all <3606> [things]: and as iron 
<6523> that breaketh <7940> all <3606> these <0459>, shall it 
break <1854> in pieces and bruise <7490>.



2:41 And whereas <1768> thou sawest <2370> the feet <7271> and 
toes <0677>, part <4481> of potters <6353>' clay <2635>, and 
part <4481> of iron <6523>, the kingdom <4437> shall be divided 
<6386>; but there shall be in it of the strength <5326> of the 
iron <6523>, forasmuch as thou sawest <2370> the iron <6523> 
mixed <6151> with miry <2917> clay <2635>.



2:42 And [as] the toes <0677> of the feet <7271> [were] part 
<4481> of iron <6523>, and part <4481> of clay <2635>, [so] the 
kingdom <4437> shall be partly <7118> strong <8624>, and partly 
<7118> broken <8406>.



2:43 And whereas <1768> thou sawest <2370> iron <6523> mixed 
<6151> with miry <2917> clay <2635>, they shall mingle <6151> 
themselves with the seed <2234> of men <0606>: but they shall 
not cleave <1693> one <1836> to another <1836>, even <1887> as 
iron <6523> is not mixed <6151> with clay <2635>.



2:44 And in the days <3118> of these <0581> kings <4430> shall 
the God <0426> of heaven <8065> set <6966> up a kingdom <4437>, 
which <1768> shall never be destroyed <2255>: and the kingdom 
<4437> shall not be left <7662> to other <0321> people <5972>, 
[but] it shall break <1854> in pieces and consume <5487> all 
<3606> these <0459> kingdoms <4437>, and it shall stand <6966> 
for ever <5957>.



2:45 Forasmuch as thou sawest <2370> that the stone <69> was cut 
<1505> out of the mountain <2906> without hands <3028>, and that 
it brake <1855> in pieces the iron <6523>, the brass <5174>, the 
clay <2635>, the silver <3702>, and the gold <1722>; the great 
<7229> God <0426> hath made known <3046> to the king <4430> what 
<4101> shall come <1934> to pass hereafter: and the dream <2493> 
[is] certain <3330>, and the interpretation <6591> thereof sure 
<0546>.



2:46. Then <0116> the king <4430> Nebuchadnezzar <5020> fell 
<5308> upon his face <0600>, and worshipped <5457> Daniel <1841>,
 and commanded <0560> that they should offer <5260> an oblation 
<8641> and sweet <5208> odours <5208> unto him.



2:47 The king <4430> answered <6032> unto Daniel <1841>, and 
said <0560>, Of a truth <7187> [it is], that your God <0426> 
[is] a God <0426> of gods <0426>, and a Lord <4756> of kings 
<4430>, and a revealer <1541> of secrets <7328>, seeing <1768> 
thou couldest <3202> reveal <1541> this <1836> secret <7328>.



2:48 Then <0116> the king <4430> made <7236> Daniel <1841> a 
great <7236> man, and gave <3052> him many <7690> great <7260> 
gifts <4978>, and made him ruler <7981> over <5922> the whole 
<3606> province <4083> of Babylon <0895>, and chief <7229> of 
the governors <5461> over <5922> all <3606> the wise <2445> 
[men] of Babylon <0895>.



2:49 Then Daniel <1841> requested <1156> of the king <4430>, and 
he set <4483> Shadrach <7715>, Meshach <4336>, and Abednego 
<5665>, over <5922> the affairs <5673> of the province <4083> of 
Babylon <0895>: but Daniel <1841> [sat] in the gate <8651> of 
the king <4430>.



Daniel 3



3:1. Nebuchadnezzar <5020> the king <4430> made <5648> an image 
<6755> of gold <1722>, whose <1768> height <7314> [was] 
threescore <8361> cubits <0521>, [and] the breadth <6613> 
thereof six <8353> cubits <0521>: he set <6966> it up in the 
plain <1236> of Dura <1757>, in the province <4083> of Babylon 
<0895>.



3:2 Then Nebuchadnezzar <5020> the king <4430> sent <7972> to 
gather <3673> together the princes <0324>, the governors <5461>, 
and the captains <6347>, the judges <0148>, the treasurers 
<1411>, the counsellors <1884>, the sheriffs <8614>, and all 
<3606> the rulers <7984> of the provinces <4082>, to come <0858> 
to the dedication <2597> of the image <6755> which <1768> 
Nebuchadnezzar <5020> the king <4430> had set <6966> up.



3:3 Then <0116> the princes <0324>, the governors <5461>, and 
captains <6347>, the judges <0148>, the treasurers <1411>, the 
counsellors <1884>, the sheriffs <8614>, and all <3606> the 
rulers <7984> of the provinces <4082>, were gathered <3673> 
together unto the dedication <2597> of the image <6755> that 
Nebuchadnezzar <5020> the king <4430> had set <6966> up; and 
they stood <6966> before <6903> the image <6755> that 
Nebuchadnezzar <5020> had set <6966> up.



3:4 Then an herald <3744> cried <7123> aloud <2429>, To you it 
is commanded <0560>, O people <5972>, nations <0524>, and 
languages <3961>,



3:5 [That] at what <1768> time <5732> ye hear <8086> the sound 
<7032> of the cornet <7162>, flute <4953>, harp <7030>, sackbut 
<5443>, psaltery <6460>, dulcimer <5481>, and all <3606> kinds 
<2177> of musick <2170>, ye fall <5308> down and worship <5457> 
the golden <1722> image <6755> that Nebuchadnezzar <5020> the 
king <4430> hath set <6966> up:



3:6 And whoso falleth <5308> not down and worshippeth <5457> 
shall the same hour <8160> be cast <7412> into the midst <1459> 
of a burning <3345> fiery <5135> furnace <0861>.



3:7 Therefore at that time <2166>, when <1768> all <3606> the 
people <5972> heard <8086> the sound <7032> of the cornet <7162>,
 flute <4953>, harp <7030>, sackbut <5443>, psaltery <6460>, and 
all <3606> kinds <2177> of musick <2170>, all <3606> the people 
<5972>, the nations <0524>, and the languages <3961>, fell 
<5308> down [and] worshipped <5457> the golden <1722> image 
<6755> that Nebuchadnezzar <5020> the king <4430> had set <6966> 
up.



3:8. Wherefore at that time <2166> certain <1400> Chaldeans 
<3779> came <7127> near <7127>, and accused <7170> the Jews 
<3064>.



3:9 They spake <6032> and said <0560> to the king <4430> 
Nebuchadnezzar <5020>, O king <4430>, live <2418> for ever 
<5957>.



3:10 Thou, O king <4430>, hast made <7761> a decree <2942>, that 
every <3606> man <0606> that shall hear <8086> the sound <7032> 
of the cornet <7162>, flute <4953>, harp <7030>, sackbut <5443>, 
psaltery <6460>, and dulcimer <5481>, and all <3606> kinds 
<2177> of musick <2170>, shall fall <5308> down and worship 
<5457> the golden <1722> image <6755>:



3:11 And whoso falleth <5308> not down and worshippeth <5457>, 
[that] he should be cast <7412> into the midst <1459> of a 
burning <3345> fiery <5135> furnace <0861>.



3:12 There are certain <1400> Jews <3064> whom <3487> thou hast 
set <4483> over <5921> the affairs <5673> of the province <4083> 
of Babylon <0895>, Shadrach <7715>, Meshach <4336>, and Abednego 
<5665>; these <0479> men <1400>, O king <4430>, have not 
regarded thee: they serve <6399> not thy gods <0426>, nor <3809> 
worship <5457> the golden <1722> image <6755> which <1768> thou 
hast set <6966> up.



3:13 Then <0116> Nebuchadnezzar <5020> in [his] rage <7266> and 
fury <2528> commanded <0560> to bring <0858> Shadrach <7715>, 
Meshach <4336>, and Abednego <5665>. Then <0116> they brought 
<0858> these <0479> men <1400> before <6925> the king <4430>.



3:14 Nebuchadnezzar <5020> spake <6032> and said <0560> unto 
them, [Is it] true <6656>, O Shadrach <7715>, Meshach <4336>, 
and Abednego <5665>, do not ye serve <6399> my gods <0426>, nor 
<3809> worship <5457> the golden <1722> image <6755> which 
<1768> I have set <6966> up?



3:15 Now <3705> if <2006> ye be ready <6263> that at what <1768> 
time <5732> ye hear <8086> the sound <7032> of the cornet <7162>,
 flute <4953>, harp <7030>, sackbut <5443>, psaltery <6460>, and 
dulcimer <5481>, and all <3606> kinds <2177> of musick <2170>, 
ye fall <5308> down and worship <5457> the image <6755> which 
<1768> I have made <5648>; [well]: but if <2006> ye worship 
<5457> not, ye shall be cast <7412> the same hour <8160> into 
the midst <1459> of a burning <3345> fiery <5135> furnace <0861>;
 and who <4479> [is] that God <0426> that shall deliver <7804> 
you out of my hands <3028>?



3:16 Shadrach <7715>, Meshach <4336>, and Abednego <5665>, 
answered <6032> and said <0560> to the king <4430>, O 
Nebuchadnezzar <5020>, we [are] not careful <2818> to answer 
<8421> thee in this <1836> matter <6600>.



3:17 If <2006> it be [so], our God <0426> whom <1768> we serve 
<6399> is able <3202> to deliver <7804> us from the burning 
<3345> fiery <5135> furnace <0861>, and he will deliver <7804> 
[us] out of thine hand <3028>, O king <4430>.



3:18 But if not, be it known <3046> unto thee, O king <4430>, 
that we will not serve <6399> thy gods <0426>, nor <3809> 
worship <5457> the golden <1722> image <6755> which <1768> thou 
hast set <6966> up.



3:19. Then <0116> was Nebuchadnezzar <5020> full <4391> of fury 
<2528>, and the form <6755> of his visage <0600> was changed 
<8133> against <5922> Shadrach <7715>, Meshach <4336>, and 
Abednego <5665>: [therefore] he spake <6032>, and commanded 
<0560> that they should heat <0228> the furnace <0861> one 
<2298> seven <7655> times more <5922> than <1768> it was wont 
<2370> to be heated <0228>.



3:20 And he commanded <0560> the most <2429> mighty <1401> men 
<1400> that [were] in his army <2429> to bind <3729> Shadrach 
<7715>, Meshach <4336>, and Abednego <5665>, [and] to cast 
<7412> [them] into the burning <3345> fiery <5135> furnace 
<0861>.



3:21 Then <0116> these <0479> men <1400> were bound <3729> in 
their coats <5622>, their hosen <6361>, and their hats <3737>, 
and their [other] garments <3831>, and were cast <7412> into the 
midst <1459> of the burning <3345> fiery <5135> furnace <0861>.



3:22 Therefore because the king's <4430> commandment <4406> was 
urgent <2685>, and the furnace <0861> exceeding <2493> hot 
<0228>, the flame <7631> of the fire <5135> slew <6992> those 
<0479> men <1400> that took <5267> up Shadrach <7715>, Meshach 
<4336>, and Abednego <5665>.



3:23 And these <0479> three <8532> men <1400>, Shadrach <7715>, 
Meshach <4336>, and Abednego <5665>, fell <5308> down bound 
<3729> into the midst <1459> of the burning <3345> fiery <5135> 
furnace <0861>.



3:24 Then <0116> Nebuchadnezzar <5020> the king <4430> was 
astonied <8429>, and rose <6965> up in haste <0927>, [and] spake 
<6032>, and said <0560> unto his counsellors <1907>, Did not we 
cast <7412> three <8532> men <1400> bound <3729> into the midst 
<1459> of the fire <5135>? They answered <6032> and said <0560> 
unto the king <4430>, True <3330>, O king <4430>.



3:25 He answered <6032> and said <0560>, Lo <1888>, I see <2370> 
four <0703> men <1400> loose <8271>, walking <1981> in the midst 
<1459> of the fire <5135>, and they have <0383> no <3809> hurt 
<2257>; and the form <7299> of the fourth <7244> is like <1821> 
the Son <1247> of God <0426>.



3:26 Then <0116> Nebuchadnezzar <5020> came <7127> near <7127> 
to the mouth <8651> of the burning <3345> fiery <5135> furnace 
<0861>, [and] spake <6032>, and said <0560>, Shadrach <7715>, 
Meshach <4336>, and Abednego <5665>, ye servants <5649> of the 
most <5943> high <5943> God <0426>, come <5312> forth <5312>, 
and come <0858> [hither]. Then <0116> Shadrach <7715>, Meshach 
<4336>, and Abednego <5665>, came <5312> forth <5312> of the 
midst <1459> of the fire <5135>.



3:27 And the princes <0324>, governors <5461>, and captains 
<6347>, and the king's <4430> counsellors <1907>, being gathered 
<3673> together, saw <2370> these <0479> men <1400>, upon whose 
<1768> bodies <1655> the fire <5135> had no <3809> power <7981>, 
nor <3809> was an hair <8177> of their head <7217> singed <2761>,
 neither <3809> were their coats <5622> changed <8133>, nor 
<3809> the smell <7382> of fire <5135> had passed <5709> on them.



3:28. [Then] Nebuchadnezzar <5020> spake <6032>, and said <0560>,
 Blessed <1289> [be] the God <0426> of Shadrach <7715>, Meshach 
<4336>, and Abednego <5665>, who <1768> hath sent <7972> his 
angel <4398>, and delivered <7804> his servants <5649> that 
trusted <7365> in him, and have changed <8133> the king's <4430> 
word <4406>, and yielded <3052> their bodies <1655>, that they 
might not serve <6399> nor <3809> worship <5457> any <3606> god 
<0426>, except <3861> their own God <0426>.



3:29 Therefore I make <7761> a decree <2942>, That every <3606> 
people <5972>, nation <0524>, and language <3961>, which <1768> 
speak <0560> any thing amiss <7955> against <5922> the God 
<0426> of Shadrach <7715>, Meshach <4336>, and Abednego <5665>, 
shall be cut <5648> in pieces <1917>, and their houses <1005> 
shall be made <7739> a dunghill <5122>: because there is no 
<3809> other <0321> God <0426> that can <3202> deliver <5338> 
after <1863> this <1836> sort.



3:30 Then <0116> the king <4430> promoted <6744> Shadrach <7715>,
 Meshach <4336>, and Abednego <5665>, in the province <4082> of 
Babylon <0895>.



Daniel 4



4:1. Nebuchadnezzar <5020> the king <4430>, unto all <3606> 
people <5972>, nations <0524>, and languages <3961>, that dwell 
<1753> in all <3606> the earth <0772>; Peace <8001> be 
multiplied <7680> unto you.



4:2 I thought it good <8232> to shew <2324> the signs <0852> and 
wonders <8540> that the high <5943> God <0426> hath wrought 
<5648> toward <5974> me.



4:3 How <4101> great <7260> [are] his signs <0852>! and how 
<4101> mighty <8624> [are] his wonders <8540>! his kingdom 
<4437> [is] an everlasting <5957> kingdom <4437>, and his 
dominion <7985> [is] from generation <1859> to generation <1859>.



4:4. I Nebuchadnezzar <5020> was at rest <7954> in mine house 
<1005>, and flourishing <7487> in my palace <1965>:



4:5 I saw <2370> a dream <2493> which made me afraid <1763>, and 
the thoughts <2031> upon my bed <4903> and the visions <2376> of 
my head <7217> troubled <0927> me.



4:6 Therefore made <7761> I a decree <2942> to bring <5924> in 
all <3606> the wise <2445> [men] of Babylon <0895> before <6925> 
me, that they might make known <3046> unto me the interpretation 
<6591> of the dream <2493>.



4:7 Then <0116> came <5954> in the magicians <2749>, the 
astrologers <0826>, the Chaldeans <3779>, and the soothsayers 
<1505>: and I told <0560> the dream <2493> before <6925> them; 
but they did not make known <3046> unto me the interpretation 
<6591> thereof.



4:8 But at <5706> the last <0318> Daniel <1841> came <5954> in 
before me, whose <1768> name <8036> [was] Belteshazzar <1096>, 
according to the name <8036> of my god <0426>, and in whom 
<1768> [is] the spirit <7308> of the holy <6922> gods <0426>: 
and before <6925> him I told <0560> the dream <2493>, [saying],



4:9 O Belteshazzar <1096>, master <0729> of the magicians <2749>,
 because <1768> I know <3046> that the spirit <7308> of the holy 
<6922> gods <0426> [is] in thee, and no secret <7328> troubleth 
<0598> thee, tell <0560> me the visions <2376> of my dream 
<2493> that I have seen <2370>, and the interpretation <6591> 
thereof.



4:10 Thus [were] the visions <2376> of mine head <7217> in my 
bed <4903>; I saw <2370>, and behold <0431> a tree <0363> in the 
midst <1459> of the earth <0772>, and the height <7314> thereof 
[was] great <7690>.



4:11 The tree <0363> grew <7236>, and was strong <8631>, and the 
height <7314> thereof reached <4291> unto heaven <8065>, and the 
sight <2379> thereof to the end <5491> of all <3606> the earth 
<0772>:



4:12 The leaves <6074> thereof [were] fair <8509>, and the fruit 
<4> thereof much <7690>, and in it [was] meat <4203> for all 
<3606>: the beasts <2423> of the field <1251> had shadow <2927> 
under <8460> it, and the fowls <6853> of the heaven <8065> dwelt 
<1753> in the boughs <6056> thereof, and all <3606> flesh <1321> 
was fed <2110> of it.



4:13 I saw <2370> in the visions <2376> of my head <7217> upon 
my bed <4903>, and, behold <0431>, a watcher <5894> and an holy 
<6922> one came <5182> down <5182> from heaven <8065>;



4:14 He cried <7123> aloud <2429>, and said <0560> thus <3652>, 
Hew <1414> down the tree <0363>, and cut <7113> off his branches 
<6056>, shake <5426> off <0575> his leaves <6074>, and scatter 
<0921> his fruit <4>: let the beasts <2423> get <5111> away 
<5111> from under <8478> it, and the fowls <6853> from his 
branches <6056>:



4:15 Nevertheless <1297> leave <7662> the stump <6136> of his 
roots <8330> in the earth <0772>, even with a band <0613> of 
iron <6523> and brass <5174>, in the tender grass <1883> of the 
field <1251>; and let it be wet <6647> with the dew <2920> of 
heaven <8065>, and [let] his portion <2508> [be] with the beasts 
<2423> in the grass <6211> of the earth <0772>:



4:16 Let his heart <3825> be changed <8133> from man's <0606>, 
and let a beast's <2423> heart <3825> be given <3052> unto him; 
and let seven <7655> times <5732> pass <2499> over <5922> him.



4:17 This matter <6600> [is] by the decree <1510> of the 
watchers <5894>, and the demand <7595> by the word <3983> of the 
holy <6922> ones: to the intent <1701> that the living <2417> 
may know <3046> that the most <5943> High <5943> ruleth <7980> 
in the kingdom <4437> of men <0606>, and giveth <5415> it to 
whomsoever <4479> he will <6634>, and setteth <6966> up over 
<5922> it the basest <8215> of men <0606>.



4:18 This <1836> dream <2493> I king <4430> Nebuchadnezzar 
<5020> have seen <2370>. Now thou, O Belteshazzar <1096>, 
declare <0560> the interpretation <6591> thereof, forasmuch as 
all <3606> the wise <2445> [men] of my kingdom <4437> are not 
able <3202> to make known <3046> unto me the interpretation 
<6591>: but thou [art] able <3546>; for the spirit <7308> of the 
holy <6922> gods <0426> [is] in thee.



4:19. Then <0116> Daniel <1841>, whose <1768> name <8036> [was] 
Belteshazzar <1096>, was astonied <8075> for one <2298> hour 
<8160>, and his thoughts <7476> troubled <0927> him. The king 
<4430> spake <6032>, and said <0560>, Belteshazzar <1096>, let 
not the dream <2493>, or the interpretation <6591> thereof, 
trouble <0927> thee. Belteshazzar <1096> answered <6032> and 
said <0560>, My lord <4756>, the dream <2493> [be] to them that 
hate <8131> thee, and the interpretation <6591> thereof to thine 
enemies <6146>.



4:20 The tree <0363> that thou sawest <2370>, which <1768> grew 
<7236>, and was strong <8631>, whose height <7314> reached 
<4291> unto the heaven <8065>, and the sight <2379> thereof to 
all <3606> the earth <0772>;



4:21 Whose leaves <6074> [were] fair <8509>, and the fruit <4> 
thereof much <7690>, and in it [was] meat <4203> for all <3606>; 
under <8460> which the beasts <2423> of the field <1251> dwelt 
<1753>, and upon whose branches <6056> the fowls <6853> of the 
heaven <8065> had their habitation <7932>:



4:22 It [is] thou, O king <4430>, that art grown <7236> and 
become <8631> strong <8631>: for thy greatness <7238> is grown 
<7236>, and reacheth <4291> unto heaven <8065>, and thy dominion 
<7985> to the end <5491> of the earth <0772>.



4:23 And whereas <1768> the king <4430> saw <2370> a watcher 
<5894> and an holy <6922> one coming <5182> down <5182> from 
heaven <8065>, and saying <0560>, Hew <1414> the tree <0363> 
down, and destroy <2255> it; yet <1297> leave <7662> the stump 
<6136> of the roots <8330> thereof in the earth <0772>, even 
with a band <0613> of iron <6523> and brass <5174>, in the 
tender grass <1883> of the field <1251>; and let it be wet 
<6647> with the dew <2920> of heaven <8065>, and [let] his 
portion <2508> [be] with the beasts <2423> of the field <1251>, 
till <5704> seven <7655> times <5732> pass <2499> over <5922> 
him;



4:24 This <1836> [is] the interpretation <6591>, O king <4430>, 
and this <1931> [is] the decree <1510> of the most <5943> High 
<5943>, which <1768> is come <4291> upon my lord <4756> the king 
<4430>:



4:25 That they shall drive <2957> thee from men <0606>, and thy 
dwelling <4070> shall be with the beasts <2423> of the field 
<1251>, and they shall make thee to eat <2939> grass <6211> as 
oxen <8450>, and they shall wet <6647> thee with the dew <2920> 
of heaven <8065>, and seven <7655> times <5732> shall pass 
<2499> over <5922> thee, till <5704> thou know <3046> that the 
most <5943> High ruleth <7980> in the kingdom <4437> of men 
<0606>, and giveth <5415> it to whomsoever <4479> he will <6634>.



4:26 And whereas <1768> they commanded <0560> to leave <7662> 
the stump <6136> of the tree <0363> roots <8330>; thy kingdom 
<4437> shall be sure <7011> unto thee, after <1767> that thou 
shalt have known <3046> that the heavens <8065> do rule <7990>.



4:27 Wherefore <3861>, O king <4430>, let my counsel <4431> be 
acceptable <8232> unto thee, and break <6562> off thy sins 
<2408> by righteousness <6665>, and thine iniquities <5758> by 
shewing mercy <2604> to the poor <6033>; if <2006> it may be a 
lengthening <0754> of thy tranquillity <7963>.



4:28. All <3606> this came <4291> upon the king <4430> 
Nebuchadnezzar <5020>.



4:29 At the end <7118> of twelve months <3393> he walked <1981> 
in the palace <1965> of the kingdom <4437> of Babylon <0895>.



4:30 The king <4430> spake <6032>, and said <0560>, Is not this 
<1668> great <7227> Babylon <0895>, that I have built <1124> for 
the house <1005> of the kingdom <4437> by the might <8632> of my 
power <2632>, and for the honour <3367> of my majesty <1923>?



4:31 While <5751> the word <4406> [was] in the king's <4430> 
mouth <6433>, there fell <5308> a voice <7032> from heaven 
<8065>, [saying], O king <4430> Nebuchadnezzar <5020>, to thee 
it is spoken <0560>; The kingdom <4437> is departed <5709> from 
thee.



4:32 And they shall drive <2957> thee from men <0606>, and thy 
dwelling <4070> [shall be] with the beasts <2423> of the field 
<1251>: they shall make thee to eat <2939> grass <6211> as oxen 
<8450>, and seven <7655> times <5732> shall pass <2499> over 
<5922> thee, until <5704> thou know <3046> that the most <5943> 
High <5943> ruleth <7980> in the kingdom <4437> of men <0606>, 
and giveth <5415> it to whomsoever <4479> he will <6634>.



4:33 The same hour <8160> was the thing <4406> fulfilled <5487> 
upon Nebuchadnezzar <5020>: and he was driven <2957> from men 
<0606>, and did eat <0399> grass <6211> as oxen <8450>, and his 
body <1655> was wet <6647> with the dew <2920> of heaven <8065>, 
till <5704> his hairs <8177> were grown <7236> like eagles 
<5403>' [feathers], and his nails <2953> like birds <6853>' 
[claws].



4:34. And at the end <7118> of the days <3118> I Nebuchadnezzar 
<5020> lifted <5191> up mine eyes <5870> unto heaven <8065>, and 
mine understanding <4486> returned <7725> unto me, and I blessed 
<1289> the most <5943> High <5943>, and I praised <7624> and 
honoured <1922> him that liveth <2416> for ever <5957>, whose 
<1768> dominion <7985> [is] an everlasting <5957> dominion 
<7985>, and his kingdom <4437> [is] from generation <1859> to 
generation <1859>:



4:35 And all <3606> the inhabitants <1753> of the earth <0772> 
[are] reputed <2804> as nothing <3809>: and he doeth <5648> 
according to his will <6634> in the army <2429> of heaven <8065>,
 and [among] the inhabitants <1753> of the earth <0772>: and 
none <3809> can stay <4223> his hand <3028>, or say <0560> unto 
him, What <4101> doest <5648> thou?



4:36 At the same time <2166> my reason <4486> returned <7725> 
unto me; and for the glory <3367> of my kingdom <4437>, mine 
honour <1923> and brightness <2122> returned <7725> unto me; and 
my counsellors <1907> and my lords <7261> sought <1158> unto me; 
and I was established <8627> in my kingdom <4437>, and excellent 
<3493> majesty <7238> was added <3255> unto me.



4:37 Now <3705> I Nebuchadnezzar <5020> praise <7624> and extol 
<7313> and honour <1922> the King <4430> of heaven <8065>, all 
<3606> whose works <4567> [are] truth <7187>, and his ways 
<0735> judgment <1780>: and those <1768> that walk <1980> in 
pride <1466> he is able <3202> to abase <8214>.



Daniel 5



5:1. Belshazzar <1113> the king <4430> made <5648> a great 
<7227> feast <3900> to a thousand <0506> of his lords <7261>, 
and drank <8355> wine <2562> before <6903> the thousand <0506>.



5:2 Belshazzar <1113>, whiles he tasted <2942> the wine <2562>, 
commanded <0560> to bring <0858> the golden <1722> and silver 
<3702> vessels <3984> which <1768> his father <2> Nebuchadnezzar 
<5020> had taken <5312> out of the temple <1965> which <1768> 
[was] in Jerusalem <3390>; that the king <4430>, and his princes 
<7261>, his wives <7695>, and his concubines <3904>, might drink 
<8355> therein.



5:3 Then <0116> they brought <0858> the golden <1722> vessels 
<3984> that were taken <5312> out of the temple <1965> of the 
house <1005> of God <0426> which <1768> [was] at Jerusalem 
<3390>; and the king <4430>, and his princes <7261>, his wives 
<7695>, and his concubines <3904>, drank <8355> in them.



5:4 They drank <8355> wine <2562>, and praised <7624> the gods 
<0426> of gold <1722>, and of silver <3702>, of brass <5174>, of 
iron <6523>, of wood <0636>, and of stone <69>.



5:5 In the same hour <8160> came <5312> forth <5312> fingers 
<0677> of a man's <0606> hand <3028>, and wrote <3790> over 
<6903> against <6903> the candlestick <5043> upon the plaister 
<1528> of the wall <3797> of the king's <4430> palace <1965>: 
and the king <4430> saw <2370> the part <6447> of the hand 
<3028> that wrote <3790>.



5:6 Then <0116> the king's <4430> countenance <2122> was changed 
<8133>, and his thoughts <7476> troubled <0927> him, so that the 
joints <7001> of his loins <2788> were loosed <8271>, and his 
knees <0755> smote <5368> one <1668> against another <1668>.



5:7 The king <4430> cried <7123> aloud <2429> to bring <5924> in 
the astrologers <0826>, the Chaldeans <3779>, and the 
soothsayers <1505>. [And] the king <4430> spake <6032>, and said 
<0560> to the wise <2445> [men] of Babylon <0895>, Whosoever 
<3605> shall read <7123> this <1836> writing <3792>, and shew 
<2324> me the interpretation <6591> thereof, shall be clothed 
<3848> with scarlet <0711>, and [have] a chain <2002> of gold 
<1722> about <5922> his neck <6676>, and shall be the third 
<8523> ruler <7981> in the kingdom <4437>.



5:8 Then <0116> came <5954> in all <3606> the king's <4430> wise 
<2445> [men]: but they could <3546> not read <7123> the writing 
<3792>, nor make known <3046> to the king <4430> the 
interpretation <6591> thereof.



5:9 Then <0116> was king <4430> Belshazzar <1113> greatly <7690> 
troubled <0927>, and his countenance <2122> was changed <8133> 
in him, and his lords <7261> were astonied <2672>.



5:10. [Now] the queen <4433>, by reason <6903> of the words 
<4406> of the king <4430> and his lords <7261>, came <5954> into 
the banquet <4961> house <1005>: [and] the queen <4433> spake 
<6032> and said <0560>, O king <4430>, live <2414> for ever 
<5957>: let not thy thoughts <7476> trouble <0927> thee, nor 
<0408> let thy countenance <2122> be changed <8133>:



5:11 There is a man <1400> in thy kingdom <4437>, in whom <1768> 
[is] the spirit <7308> of the holy <6922> gods <0426>; and in 
the days <3118> of thy father <2> light <5094> and understanding 
<7924> and wisdom <2452>, like the wisdom <2452> of the gods 
<0426>, was found <7912> in him; whom the king <4430> 
Nebuchadnezzar <5020> thy father <2>, the king <4430>, [I say], 
thy father <2>, made master <0729> of the magicians <2749>, 
astrologers <0826>, Chaldeans <3779>, [and] soothsayers <1505>;



5:12 Forasmuch as an excellent <3493> spirit <7308>, and 
knowledge <0998>, and understanding <7924>, interpreting <6591> 
of dreams <2493>, and shewing <0263> of hard <0280> sentences 
<0280>, and dissolving <8271> of doubts <7001>, were found 
<7912> in the same Daniel <1841>, whom <1768> the king <4430> 
named <8036> Belteshazzar <1096>: now <3705> let Daniel <1841> 
be called <7123>, and he will shew <5046> the interpretation 
<6591>.



5:13 Then <0116> was Daniel <1841> brought <5954> in before 
<6925> the king <4430>. [And] the king <4430> spake <6032> and 
said <0560> unto Daniel <1841>, [Art] thou that Daniel <1841>, 
which <1768> [art] of the children <1123> of the captivity 
<1547> of Judah <3061>, whom <1768> the king <4430> my father 
<2> brought <0858> out of Jewry <3061>?



5:14 I have even heard <8086> of thee, that the spirit <7308> of 
the gods <0426> [is] in thee, and [that] light <5094> and 
understanding <7924> and excellent <3493> wisdom <2452> is found 
<7912> in thee.



5:15 And now <3705> the wise <2445> [men], the astrologers 
<0826>, have been brought <5954> in before <6925> me, that they 
should read <7123> this <1836> writing <3792>, and make known 
<3046> unto me the interpretation <6591> thereof: but they could 
<5346> not shew <2324> the interpretation <6591> of the thing 
<4406>:



5:16 And I have heard <8086> of thee, that thou canst <3202> 
make interpretations <6591>, and dissolve <8271> doubts <7001>: 
now <3705> if <2006> thou canst <3202> read <7123> the writing 
<3792>, and make known <3046> to me the interpretation <6591> 
thereof, thou shalt be clothed <3848> with scarlet <0711>, and 
[have] a chain <2002> of gold <1722> about <5922> thy neck 
<6676>, and shalt be the third <8531> ruler <7981> in the 
kingdom <4437>.



5:17 Then <0116> Daniel <1841> answered <6032> and said <0560> 
before <6925> the king <4430>, Let thy gifts <4978> be to 
thyself, and give <3052> thy rewards <5023> to another <0321>; 
yet <1297> I will read <7123> the writing <3792> unto the king 
<4430>, and make known <3046> to him the interpretation <6591>.



5:18 O thou king <4430>, the most <5943> high <5943> God <0426> 
gave <3052> Nebuchadnezzar <5020> thy father <2> a kingdom 
<4437>, and majesty <7238>, and glory <3367>, and honour <1923>:



5:19 And for the majesty <7238> that he gave <3052> him, all 
<3606> people <5972>, nations <0524>, and languages <3961>, 
trembled <2112> and feared <1763> before him: whom <1768> he 
would <6634> he slew <6992>; and whom <1768> he would <6634> he 
kept alive <2418>; and whom <1768> he would <6634> he set <7313> 
up; and whom he would <6634> he put <8214> down <8214>.



5:20 But when <1768> his heart <3825> was lifted <7313> up, and 
his mind <7307> hardened <8631> in pride <2103>, he was deposed 
<5182> from his kingly <4437> throne <3764>, and they took 
<5709> his glory <3367> from him:



5:21 And he was driven <2957> from the sons <1123> of men <0606>;
 and his heart <3825> was made <7737> like <5974> the beasts 
<2423>, and his dwelling <4070> [was] with the wild <6167> asses 
<6167>: they fed <2939> him with grass <6211> like oxen <8450>, 
and his body <1655> was wet <6647> with the dew <2920> of heaven 
<8065>; till <5704> he knew <3046> that the most <5943> high 
<5943> God <0426> ruled <7990> in the kingdom <4437> of men 
<0606>, and [that] he appointeth <6966> over <5922> it 
whomsoever he will <6634>.



5:22 And thou his son <1247>, O Belshazzar <1113>, hast not 
humbled <8214> thine heart <3825>, though thou knewest <3046> 
all <3606> this <1836>;



5:23 But hast lifted <7313> up thyself against <5922> the Lord 
<4756> of heaven <8065>; and they have brought <0858> the 
vessels <3984> of his house <1005> before <6925> thee, and thou, 
and thy lords <7261>, thy wives <7695>, and thy concubines 
<3904>, have drunk <8355> wine <2562> in them; and thou hast 
praised <7624> the gods <0426> of silver <3702>, and gold <1722>,
 of brass <5174>, iron <6523>, wood <0636>, and stone <69>, 
which <1768> see <2370> not, nor <3809> hear <8086>, nor <3809> 
know <3046>: and the God <0426> in whose <1768> hand <3028> thy 
breath <5396> [is], and whose [are] all <3606> thy ways <0735>, 
hast thou not glorified <1922>:



5:24 Then <0116> was the part <6447> of the hand <3028> sent 
<7972> from him; and this <1836> writing <3792> was written 
<7560>.



5:25 And this <1836> [is] the writing <3792> that was written 
<7560>, MENE <4484>, MENE <4484>, TEKEL <8625>, UPHARSIN <6537>.



5:26 This <1836> [is] the interpretation <6591> of the thing 
<4406>: MENE <4484>; God <0426> hath numbered <4483> thy kingdom 
<4437>, and finished <8000> it.



5:27 TEKEL <8625>; Thou art weighed <8625> in the balances 
<3976>, and art found <7912> wanting <2627>.



5:28 PERES <6537>; Thy kingdom <4437> is divided <6537>, and 
given <3052> to the Medes <4076> and Persians <6540>.



5:29 Then <0116> commanded <0560> Belshazzar <1113>, and they 
clothed <3848> Daniel <1841> with scarlet <0711>, and [put] a 
chain <2002> of gold <1722> about <5922> his neck <6676>, and 
made a proclamation <3745> concerning <5922> him, that he should 
be the third <8531> ruler <7990> in the kingdom <4437>.



5:30. In that night <3916> was Belshazzar <1113> the king <4430> 
of the Chaldeans <3779> slain <6992>.



5:31 And Darius <1868> the Median <4077> took <6902> the kingdom 
<4437>, [being] about threescore <8361> and two <8648> years 
<8140> old <1247>.



Daniel 6



6:1. It pleased <8232> Darius <1868> to set <3966> over <5922> 
the kingdom <4437> an hundred <3969> and twenty <6243> princes 
<0324>, which <1768> should be over the whole <3606> kingdom 
<4437>;



6:2 And over <5924> these <4481> three <8532> presidents <5632>; 
of whom Daniel <1841> [was] first <2298>: that the princes 
<0324> might give <3052> accounts <2941> unto them, and the king 
<4430> should have <1934> no <3809> damage <5142>.



6:3 Then <0116> this <1836> Daniel <1841> was preferred <5330> 
above <5922> the presidents <5632> and princes <0324>, because 
an excellent <3493> spirit <7308> [was] in him; and the king 
<4430> thought <6246> to set <3966> him over <5922> the whole 
<3606> realm <4437>.



6:4 Then <0116> the presidents <5632> and princes <0324> sought 
<1158> to find <7912> occasion <5931> against Daniel <1841> 
concerning <6655> the kingdom <4437>; but they could <3202> find 
<7912> none <3809> occasion <5931> nor <3809> fault <7844>; 
forasmuch as he [was] faithful <0540>, neither <3809> was there 
any <3606> error <7960> or fault <7844> found <7912> in him.



6:5 Then <0116> said <0560> these <0479> men <1400>, We shall 
not find <7912> any <3606> occasion <5931> against <5922> this 
<1836> Daniel <1841>, except <3861> we find <7912> [it] against 
him concerning the law <1882> of his God <0426>.



6:6. Then <0116> these <0459> presidents <5632> and princes 
<0324> assembled <7284> together to the king <4430>, and said 
<0560> thus <3652> unto him, King <4430> Darius <1868>, live 
<2414> for ever <5757>.



6:7 All <3606> the presidents <5632> of the kingdom <4437>, the 
governors <5461>, and the princes <0324>, the counsellors <1907>,
 and the captains <6347>, have consulted <3272> together to 
establish <6966> a royal <4430> statute <7010>, and to make a 
firm <8631> decree <0633>, that whosoever <3605> shall ask 
<1156> a petition <1159> of any <3606> God <0426> or man <0606> 
for thirty <8533> days <3118>, save <3861> of thee, O king 
<4430>, he shall be cast <7412> into the den <1358> of lions 
<0744>.



6:8 Now <3705>, O king <4430>, establish <6966> the decree 
<0633>, and sign <7560> the writing <3792>, that it be not 
changed <8133>, according to the law <1882> of the Medes <4076> 
and Persians <6540>, which <1768> altereth <5709> not.



6:9 Wherefore king <4430> Darius <1868> signed <7560> the 
writing <3792> and the decree <0633>.



6:10 Now <1768> when <1768> Daniel <1841> knew <3046> that the 
writing <3792> was signed <7560>, he went <5954> into his house 
<1005>; and his windows <3551> being open <6606> in his chamber 
<5952> toward <5049> Jerusalem <3390>, he kneeled <1289> upon 
his knees <1291> three <8532> times <2166> a day <3118>, and 
prayed <6739>, and gave thanks <3029> before <6925> his God 
<0426>, as he did <5648> aforetime.



6:11. Then <0116> these <0479> men <1400> assembled <7284>, and 
found <7912> Daniel <1841> praying <1156> and making 
supplication <2604> before <6925> his God <0426>.



6:12 Then <0116> they came <7127> near <7127>, and spake <0560> 
before <6925> the king <4430> concerning <5922> the king's 
<4430> decree <0633>; Hast thou not signed <7560> a decree 
<0633>, that every <3606> man <0606> that shall ask <1156> [a 
petition] of any <3606> God <0426> or man <0606> within <5705> 
thirty <8533> days <3118>, save <3861> of thee, O king <4430>, 
shall be cast <7412> into the den <1358> of lions <0744>? The 
king <4430> answered <6032> and said <0560>, The thing <4406> 
[is] true <3330>, according to the law <1882> of the Medes 
<4076> and Persians <6540>, which <1768> altereth <5709> not.



6:13 Then <0116> answered <6032> they and said <0560> before 
<6925> the king <4430>, That Daniel <1841>, which <1768> [is] of 
the children <1123> of the captivity <1547> of Judah <3061>, 
regardeth not thee, O king <4430>, nor the decree <0633> that 
thou hast signed <7560>, but maketh his petition <1159> three 
<8532> times <2166> a day <3118>.



6:14 Then <0116> the king <4430>, when <1768> he heard <8086> 
[these] words <4406>, was sore <7690> displeased <0888> with 
himself, and set <7761> [his] heart <1079> on <5922> Daniel 
<1841> to deliver <7804> him: and he laboured <7712> till <5704> 
the going <4606> down <4606> of the sun <8122> to deliver <5338> 
him.



6:15 Then <0116> these <0479> men <1400> assembled <7284> unto 
the king <4430>, and said <0560> unto the king <4430>, Know 
<3046>, O king <4430>, that the law <1882> of the Medes <4076> 
and Persians <6540> [is], That no decree <0633> nor statute 
<7010> which <1768> the king <4430> establisheth <6966> may be 
changed <8133>.



6:16 Then <0116> the king <4430> commanded <0560>, and they 
brought <0858> Daniel <1841>, and cast <7412> [him] into the den 
<1358> of lions <0744>. [Now <0116>] the king <4430> spake 
<6032> and said <0560> unto Daniel <1841>, Thy God <0426> whom 
<1768> thou servest <6399> continually <8411>, he will deliver 
<7804> thee.



6:17 And a stone <69> was brought <0858>, and laid <7760> upon 
the mouth <6433> of the den <1358>; and the king <4430> sealed 
<2857> it with his own signet <5824>, and with the signet <5824> 
of his lords <7261>; that the purpose <6640> might not be 
changed <8133> concerning Daniel <1841>.



6:18. Then <0116> the king <4430> went <0236> to his palace 
<1965>, and passed the night <0956> fasting <2908>: neither 
<3809> were instruments <1761> of musick brought <5954> before 
<6925> him: and his sleep <8139> went <5075> from him.



6:19 Then <0116> the king <4430> arose <6966> very early <8238> 
in the morning <5053>, and went <0236> in haste <0927> unto the 
den <1358> of lions <0744>.



6:20 And when he came <7127> to the den <1358>, he cried <2200> 
with a lamentable <6088> voice <7032> unto Daniel <1841>: [and] 
the king <4430> spake <6032> and said <0560> to Daniel <1841>, O 
Daniel <1841>, servant <5649> of the living <2417> God <0426>, 
is thy God <0426>, whom <1768> thou servest <6399> continually 
<8411>, able <3202> to deliver <7804> thee from the lions <0744>?



6:21 Then <0116> said <4449> Daniel <1841> unto the king <4430>, 
O king <4430>, live <2414> for ever <5957>.



6:22 My God <0426> hath sent <7972> his angel <4398>, and hath 
shut <5463> the lions <0744>' mouths <6433>, that they have not 
hurt <2255> me: forasmuch as before <6925> him innocency <2136> 
was found <7912> in me; and also <0638> before <6925> thee, O 
king <4430>, have I done <5648> no <3809> hurt <2248>.



6:23 Then <0116> was the king <4430> exceeding <7689> glad 
<2868> for him, and commanded <0560> that they should take 
<5267> Daniel <1841> up out of the den <1358>. So Daniel <1841> 
was taken <5267> up out of the den <1358>, and no manner of hurt 
<2257> was found <7912> upon him, because <1768> he believed 
<0540> in his God <0426>.



6:24 And the king <4430> commanded <0560>, and they brought 
<0858> those <0479> men <1400> which <1768> had accused <7170> 
Daniel <1841>, and they cast <7412> [them] into the den <1358> 
of lions <0744>, them, their children <1123>, and their wives 
<5389>; and the lions <0744> had the mastery <6981> of them, and 
brake <1855> all <3606> their bones <1635> in pieces or ever 
<3809> they came <4291> at the bottom <0773> of the den <1358>.



6:25. Then <0116> king <4430> Darius <1868> wrote <3790> unto 
all <3606> people <5972>, nations <0524>, and languages <3961>, 
that dwell <1753> in all <3606> the earth <0772>; Peace <8001> 
be multiplied <7680> unto you.



6:26 I make <7761> a decree <2942>, That in every <3606> 
dominion <7985> of my kingdom <4437> men tremble <2112> and fear 
<1763> before the God <0426> of Daniel <1841>: for he [is] the 
living <2417> God <0426>, and stedfast <7011> for ever <5957>, 
and his kingdom <4437> [that] which <1768> shall not be 
destroyed <2255>, and his dominion <7985> [shall be even] unto 
the end <5491>.



6:27 He delivereth <7804> and rescueth <5338>, and he worketh 
<5648> signs <0852> and wonders <8540> in heaven <8065> and in 
earth <0772>, who <1768> hath delivered <7804> Daniel <1841> 
from the power <3028> of the lions <0744>.



6:28 So this <1836> Daniel <1841> prospered <6744> in the reign 
<4437> of Darius <1868>, and in the reign <4437> of Cyrus <3567> 
the Persian <6523>.



Daniel 7



7:1. In the first <2298> year <8140> of Belshazzar <1113> king 
<4430> of Babylon <0895> Daniel <1841> had <2370> a dream <2493> 
and visions <2376> of his head <7217> upon his bed <4903>: then 
<0116> he wrote <3790> the dream <2493>, [and] told <0560> the 
sum <7217> of the matters <4406>.



7:2 Daniel <1841> spake <6032> and said <0560>, I saw <2370> in 
my vision <2376> by night <3916>, and, behold <0718>, the four 
<0703> winds <7308> of the heaven <8065> strove <1519> upon the 
great <7227> sea <3221>.



7:3 And four <0703> great <7260> beasts <2423> came <5559> up 
from the sea <3221>, diverse <8133> one <1668> from another 
<1668>.



7:4 The first <6933> [was] like a lion <0738>, and had eagle's 
<5403> wings <1611>: I beheld till <5704> the wings <1611> 
thereof were plucked <4804>, and it was lifted <5191> up from 
the earth <0772>, and made stand <6966> upon the feet <7271> as 
a man <0606>, and a man's <0606> heart <3825> was given <3052> 
to it.



7:5 And behold <0718> another <0317> beast <2423>, a second 
<8578>, like <1821> to a bear <1678>, and it raised <6966> up 
itself on one <2298> side <7859>, and [it had] three <8532> ribs 
<6763> in the mouth <6433> of it between <0997> the teeth <8128> 
of it: and they said <0560> thus <3652> unto it, Arise <6965>, 
devour <0399> much <7690> flesh <1321>.



7:6 After <0870> this <1836> I beheld, and lo <0718> another 
<0317>, like a leopard <5245>, which <1768> had upon the back 
<1355> of it four <0703> wings <1611> of a fowl <5776>; the 
beast <2423> had also four <0703> heads <7217>; and dominion 
<7985> was given <3052> to it.



7:7 After <0870> this <1836> I saw <2370> in the night <3916> 
visions <2376>, and behold <0718> a fourth <7244> beast <2423>, 
dreadful <1763> and terrible <0574>, and strong <8624> 
exceedingly <3493>; and it had great <7260> iron <6523> teeth 
<8128>: it devoured <0399> and brake <1855> in pieces, and 
stamped <7512> the residue <7606> with the feet <7271> of it: 
and it [was] diverse <8133> from all <3606> the beasts <2423> 
that [were] before <6925> it; and it had ten <6236> horns <7162>.



7:8 I considered <7920> the horns <7162>, and, behold <0431>, 
there came <5559> up among <0997> them another <0317> little 
<2192> horn <7162>, before <6925> whom there were three <8532> 
of the first <6933> horns <7162> plucked <6132> up by the roots 
<6132>: and, behold <0431>, in this <1668> horn <7162> [were] 
eyes <5870> like the eyes <5870> of man <0606>, and a mouth 
<6433> speaking <4449> great <7260> things.



7:9. I beheld till <5704> the thrones <3764> were cast <7412> 
down, and the Ancient <6268> of days <3118> did sit <3488>, 
whose garment <3831> [was] white as snow <8517>, and the hair 
<8177> of his head <7217> like the pure <5343> wool <6015>: his 
throne <3764> [was like] the fiery <5135> flame <7631>, [and] 
his wheels <1535> [as] burning <1815> fire <5135>.



7:10 A fiery <5135> stream <5103> issued <5047> and came <5312> 
forth <5312> from before <6925> him: thousand <0506> thousands 
<0506> ministered <8120> unto him, and ten <7240> thousand 
<7240> times ten <7240> thousand <7240> stood <6966> before 
<6925> him: the judgment <1780> was set <3488>, and the books 
<5609> were opened <6606>.



7:11 I beheld then <0116> because <4481> of the voice <7032> of 
the great <7260> words <4406> which <1768> the horn <7162> spake 
<4449>: I beheld [even <5705>] till <5704> the beast <2423> was 
slain <6992>, and his body <1655> destroyed <7>, and given 
<3052> to the burning <3346> flame <0785>.



7:12 As concerning the rest <7606> of the beasts <2423>, they 
had their dominion <7985> taken <5709> away <5709>: yet their 
lives <2417> were prolonged for a season <2166> and time <5732>.



7:13 I saw <2370> in the night <6916> visions <2376>, and, 
behold <0718>, [one] like the Son <1247> of man <0606> came with 
the clouds <6050> of heaven <8065>, and came <4291> to the 
Ancient <6268> of days <3118>, and they brought <7127> him near 
<7127> before <6925> him.



7:14 And there was given <3052> him dominion <7985>, and glory 
<3367>, and a kingdom <4437>, that all <3606> people <5972>, 
nations <0524>, and languages <3961>, should serve <6399> him: 
his dominion <7985> [is] an everlasting <5957> dominion <7985>, 
which <1768> shall not pass <5709> away <5709>, and his kingdom 
<4437> [that] which <1768> shall not be destroyed <2255>.



7:15. I Daniel <1841> was grieved <3735> in my spirit <7308> in 
the midst <1459> of [my] body <5085>, and the visions <2376> of 
my head <7217> troubled <0927> me.



7:16 I came <7127> near <7127> unto one <2298> of them that 
stood <6966> by, and asked <1156> him the truth <3330> of all 
<3606> this <1836>. So he told <0560> me, and made me know 
<3046> the interpretation <6591> of the things <4406>.



7:17 These <0459> great <7260> beasts <2423>, which <1768> are 
four <0703>, [are] four <0703> kings <4430>, [which] shall arise 
<6965> out of the earth <0772>.



7:18 But the saints <6922> of the most <5946> High <5946> shall 
take <6902> the kingdom <4437>, and possess <2631> the kingdom 
<4437> for ever <5957>, even <5705> for ever <5957> and ever 
<5957>.



7:19 Then <0116> I would <6634> know <3046> the truth <3321> of 
the fourth <7244> beast <2423>, which <1768> was diverse <8133> 
from all <3606> the others, exceeding <3493> dreadful <1763>, 
whose <1768> teeth <8128> [were of] iron <6523>, and his nails 
<2953> [of] brass <5174>; [which] devoured <0399>, brake <1855> 
in pieces, and stamped <7512> the residue <7606> with his feet 
<7271>;



7:20 And of the ten <6236> horns <7162> that [were] in his head 
<7217>, and [of] the other <0317> which <1768> came <5559> up, 
and before whom <4479> three <8532> fell <5308>; even [of] that 
horn <7162> that had eyes <5870>, and a mouth <6433> that spake 
<4449> very <7260> great <7260> things, whose look <2376> [was] 
more <5750> stout <7229> than <4481> his fellows <2273>.



7:21 I beheld, and the same <1797> horn <7162> made <5648> war 
<7129> with the saints <6922>, and prevailed <3202> against them;



7:22 Until <5704> the Ancient <6268> of days <3118> came <0858>, 
and judgment <1780> was given <3052> to the saints <6922> of the 
most <5946> High <5946>; and the time <2166> came <4291> that 
the saints <6922> possessed <2631> the kingdom <4437>.



7:23 Thus <3652> he said <0560>, The fourth <7244> beast <2423> 
shall be the fourth <7244> kingdom <4437> upon earth <0772>, 
which <1768> shall be diverse <8133> from all <3606> kingdoms 
<4437>, and shall devour <0399> the whole <3606> earth <0772>, 
and shall tread <1759> it down, and break <1854> it in pieces.



7:24 And the ten <6236> horns <7162> out of this kingdom <4437> 
[are] ten <6236> kings <4430> [that] shall arise <6965>: and 
another <0312> shall rise <6966> after <0311> them; and he shall 
be diverse <8133> from the first <6933>, and he shall subdue 
<8214> three <8532> kings <4430>.



7:25 And he shall speak <4449> [great] words <4406> against 
<6655> the most <5943> High <5943>, and shall wear <1080> out 
the saints <6922> of the most <5946> High <5946>, and think 
<5452> to change <8133> times <2166> and laws <1882>: and they 
shall be given <3052> into his hand <3028> until <5704> a time 
<5732> and times <5732> and the dividing <6387> of time <5732>.



7:26 But the judgment <1780> shall sit <3488>, and they shall 
take <5709> away <5709> his dominion <7985>, to consume <8046> 
and to destroy <7> [it] unto the end <5491>.



7:27 And the kingdom <4437> and dominion <7985>, and the 
greatness <7238> of the kingdom <4437> under <8460> the whole 
<3606> heaven <8065>, shall be given <3052> to the people <5972> 
of the saints <6922> of the most <5945> High <5946>, whose 
kingdom <4437> [is] an everlasting <5957> kingdom <4437>, and 
all <3606> dominions <7985> shall serve <6399> and obey <8086> 
him.



7:28 Hitherto [is] the end <5491> of the matter <4406>. As for 
me Daniel <1841>, my cogitations <7476> much <7690> troubled 
<0927> me, and my countenance <2122> changed <8133> in me: but I 
kept <5202> the matter <4406> in my heart <3821>.



Daniel 8



8:1. In the third <7969> year <8141> of the reign <4438> of king 
<4428> Belshazzar <1113> a vision <2377> appeared <7200> unto me,
 [even unto] me Daniel <1840>, after <0310> that which appeared 
<7200> unto me at the first <8462>.



8:2 And I saw <7200> in a vision <2377>; and it came <1961> to 
pass, when I saw <7200>, that I [was] at Shushan <7800> [in] the 
palace <1002>, which <0834> [is] in the province <4082> of Elam 
<5867>; and I saw <7200> in a vision <2377>, and I was by the 
river <0180> of Ulai <0195>.



8:3 Then I lifted <5375> up mine eyes <5869>, and saw <7200>, 
and, behold <2009>, there stood <5975> before <6440> the river 
<0180> a ram <0352> which had [two] horns <7161>: and the [two] 
horns <7161> [were] high <1364>; but one <0259> [was] higher 
<1364> than <4480> the other <8145>, and the higher <1364> came 
<5927> up last <0314>.



8:4 I saw <7200> the ram <0352> pushing <5055> westward <3220>, 
and northward <6828>, and southward <5045>; so that no <3808> 
beasts <2416> might stand <5975> before <6440> him, neither 
<0369> [was there any] that could deliver <5337> out of his hand 
<3027>; but he did <6213> according to his will <7522>, and 
became <1431> great <1431>.



8:5 And as I was considering <0995>, behold <2009>, an he goat 
<5795> came <0935> from the west <4628> on the face <6440> of 
the whole <3605> earth <0776>, and touched <5060> not the ground 
<0776>: and the goat <6842> [had] a notable <2380> horn <7161> 
between <0996> his eyes <5869>.



8:6 And he came <0935> to the ram <0352> that had [two] horns 
<7161>, which <0834> I had seen <7200> standing <5975> before 
<6440> the river <0180>, and ran <7323> unto him in the fury 
<2534> of his power <3581>.



8:7 And I saw <7200> him come <5060> close <0681> unto the ram 
<0352>, and he was moved with choler <4843> against <0413> him, 
and smote <5221> the ram <0352>, and brake <7665> his two <8147> 
horns <7161>: and there was no <3808> power <3581> in the ram 
<0352> to stand <5975> before <6440> him, but he cast <7993> him 
down to the ground <0776>, and stamped <7429> upon him: and 
there was none <3808> that could deliver <5337> the ram <0352> 
out of his hand <3027>.



8:8 Therefore the he goat <6842> waxed very great <1431>: and 
when he was strong <6105>, the great <1419> horn <7161> was 
broken <7665>; and for it came <5927> up four <0702> notable 
<2380> ones toward the four <0702> winds <7307> of heaven <8064>.



8:9 And out of one <0259> of them came <3318> forth <3318> a 
little <4704> horn <7161>, which waxed exceeding <3499> great 
<1431>, toward <0413> the south <5045>, and toward <0413> the 
east <4217>, and toward <0413> the pleasant <6643> [land].



8:10 And it waxed great <1431>, [even] to the host <6635> of 
heaven <8064>; and it cast <5307> down <5307> [some] of the host 
<6635> and of the stars <3556> to the ground <0776>, and stamped 
<7429> upon them.



8:11 Yea, he magnified <1431> [himself] even to the prince 
<8269> of the host <6635>, and by him the daily <8548> 
[sacrifice] was taken <7311> away <7311>, and the place <4349> 
of his sanctuary <4720> was cast <7993> down.



8:12 And an host <6635> was given <5414> [him] against <5921> 
the daily <8548> [sacrifice] by reason of transgression <6588>, 
and it cast <7993> down the truth <0571> to the ground <0776>; 
and it practised <6213>, and prospered <6743>.



8:13 Then I heard <8085> one <0259> saint <6918> speaking <1696>,
 and another <0259> saint <6918> said <0559> unto that certain 
<6422> [saint] which spake <1696>, How <5704> long <5704> [shall 
be] the vision <2377> [concerning] the daily <8548> [sacrifice], 
and the transgression <6588> of desolation <8074>, to give 
<5414> both the sanctuary <6944> and the host <6635> to be 
trodden <4823> under foot <4823>?



8:14 And he said <0559> unto me, Unto two thousand <0505> and 
three <7969> hundred <3967> days; then shall the sanctuary 
<6944> be cleansed <6663>.



8:15. And it came <1961> to pass, when I, [even] I Daniel <1840>,
 had seen <7200> the vision <2377>, and sought <1245> for the 
meaning <0998>, then, behold <2009>, there stood <5975> before 
<5048> me as the appearance <4758> of a man <1397>.



8:16 And I heard <8085> a man's <0120> voice <6963> between 
<0996> [the banks of] Ulai <0195>, which called <7121>, and said 
<0559>, Gabriel <1403>, make this <1975> [man] to understand 
<0995> the vision <4758>.



8:17 So he came <0935> near <0681> where I stood <5977>: and 
when he came <0935>, I was afraid <1204>, and fell <5307> upon 
my face <6440>: but he said <0559> unto me, Understand <0995>, O 
son <1121> of man <0120>: for at the time <6256> of the end 
<7093> [shall be] the vision <4758>.



8:18 Now as he was speaking <1696> with me, I was in a deep 
<7290> sleep <7290> on <5921> my face <6440> toward the ground 
<0776>: but he touched <5060> me, and set <5975> me upright 
<5977>.



8:19 And he said <0559>, Behold <2005>, I will make thee know 
<3045> what shall be in the last <0319> end of the indignation 
<2195>: for at the time appointed <4150> the end <7093> [shall 
be].



8:20 The ram <0352> which <0834> thou sawest <7200> having 
<1167> [two] horns <7161> [are] the kings <4428> of Media <4074> 
and Persia <6539>.



8:21 And the rough <8163> goat <6842> [is] the king <4428> of 
Grecia <3120>: and the great <1419> horn <7161> that [is] 
between <0996> his eyes <5869> [is] the first <7223> king <4428>.



8:22 Now that being broken <7665>, whereas four <0702> stood 
<5975> up for it, four <0702> kingdoms <4438> shall stand <5975> 
up out of the nation <1471>, but not in his power <3581>.



8:23 And in the latter <0319> time of their kingdom <4438>, when 
the transgressors <6586> are come to the full <8552>, a king 
<4428> of fierce <5794> countenance <6440>, and understanding 
<0995> dark <2420> sentences <2420>, shall stand <5975> up.



8:24 And his power <3581> shall be mighty <6105>, but not by his 
own power <3581>: and he shall destroy <7843> wonderfully <6381>,
 and shall prosper <6743>, and practise <6213>, and shall 
destroy <7843> the mighty <6099> and the holy <6918> people 
<5971>.



8:25 And through <5921> his policy <7922> also he shall cause 
craft <4820> to prosper <6743> in his hand <3027>; and he shall 
magnify <1431> [himself] in his heart <3824>, and by peace 
<7962> shall destroy <7843> many <7227>: he shall also stand 
<5975> up against <5921> the Prince <8269> of princes <8269>; 
but he shall be broken <7665> without <0657> hand <3027>.



8:26 And the vision <4758> of the evening <6153> and the morning 
<1242> which <0834> was told <0560> [is] true <0571>: wherefore 
shut <5640> thou up the vision <2377>; for it [shall be] for 
many <7227> days <3117>.



8:27 And I Daniel <1840> fainted <1961>, and was sick <2470> 
[certain] days <3117>; afterward I rose <6965> up, and did 
<6213> the king's <4428> business <4399>; and I was astonished 
<8074> at <5921> the vision <4758>, but none <0369> understood 
<0995> [it].



Daniel 9



9:1. In the first <0259> year <8141> of Darius <1867> the son 
<1121> of Ahasuerus <0325>, of the seed <2233> of the Medes 
<4074>, which <0834> was made king <4427> over <5921> the realm 
<4438> of the Chaldeans <3778>;



9:2 In the first <0259> year <8141> of his reign <4427> I Daniel 
<1840> understood <0995> by books <5612> the number <4557> of 
the years <8141>, whereof <0834> the word <1697> of the LORD 
<3068> came <1961> to Jeremiah <3414> the prophet <5030>, that 
he would accomplish <4390> seventy <7657> years <8141> in the 
desolations <2723> of Jerusalem <3389>.



9:3 And I set <5414> my face <6440> unto the Lord <0136> God 
<0430>, to seek <1245> by prayer <8605> and supplications <8469>,
 with fasting <6685>, and sackcloth <8242>, and ashes <0665>:



9:4. And I prayed <6419> unto the LORD <3068> my God <0430>, and 
made my confession <3034>, and said <0559>, O Lord <0136>, the 
great <1419> and dreadful <3372> God <0410>, keeping <8104> the 
covenant <1285> and mercy <2617> to them that love <0157> him, 
and to them that keep <8104> his commandments <4687>;



9:5 We have sinned <2398>, and have committed <5753> iniquity 
<5753>, and have done wickedly <7561>, and have rebelled <4775>, 
even by departing <5493> from thy precepts <4687> and from thy 
judgments <4941>:



9:6 Neither <3808> have we hearkened <8085> unto thy servants 
<5650> the prophets <5030>, which <0834> spake <1696> in thy 
name <8034> to our kings <4428>, our princes <8269>, and our 
fathers <1>, and to all <3605> the people <5971> of the land 
<0776>.



9:7 O Lord <0136>, righteousness <6666> [belongeth] unto thee, 
but unto us confusion <1322> of faces <6440>, as at this <2088> 
day <3117>; to the men <0376> of Judah <3063>, and to the 
inhabitants <3427> of Jerusalem <3389>, and unto all <3605> 
Israel <3478>, [that are] near <7138>, and [that are] far <7350> 
off, through all <3605> the countries <0776> whither thou hast 
driven <5080> them, because of their trespass <4604> that they 
have trespassed <4603> against thee.



9:8 O Lord <0136>, to us [belongeth] confusion <1322> of face 
<6440>, to our kings <4428>, to our princes <8269>, and to our 
fathers <1>, because <0834> we have sinned <2398> against thee.



9:9 To the Lord <0136> our God <0430> [belong] mercies <7356> 
and forgivenesses <5547>, though <3588> we have rebelled <4775> 
against him;



9:10 Neither <3808> have we obeyed <8085> the voice <6963> of 
the LORD <3068> our God <0430>, to walk <3212> in his laws 
<8451>, which <0834> he set <5414> before <6440> us by his 
servants <5650> the prophets <5030>.



9:11 Yea, all <3605> Israel <3478> have transgressed <5674> thy 
law <8451>, even by departing <5493>, that they might not obey 
<8085> thy voice <6963>; therefore the curse <0423> is poured 
<5413> upon us, and the oath <7621> that [is] written <3789> in 
the law <8451> of Moses <4872> the servant <5650> of God <0430>, 
because <3588> we have sinned <2398> against him.



9:12 And he hath confirmed <6965> his words <1697>, which <0834> 
he spake <1696> against <5921> us, and against <5921> our judges 
<8199> that judged <8199> us, by bringing <0935> upon us a great 
<1419> evil <7451>: for under <8478> the whole <3605> heaven 
<8064> hath not been done as hath been done <6213> upon 
Jerusalem <3389>.



9:13 As [it is] written <3789> in the law <8451> of Moses <4872>,
 all <3605> this <2063> evil <7451> is come <0935> upon us: yet 
made we not our prayer <2470> before the LORD <3068> our God 
<0430>, that we might turn <7725> from our iniquities <5771>, 
and understand <7919> thy truth <0571>.



9:14 Therefore hath the LORD <3068> watched <8245> upon the evil 
<7451>, and brought <0935> it upon us: for the LORD <3068> our 
God <0430> [is] righteous <6662> in all <3605> his works <4639> 
which <0834> he doeth <6213>: for we obeyed <8085> not his voice 
<6963>.



9:15 And now <6258>, O Lord <0136> our God <0430>, that hast 
brought <3318> thy people <5971> forth <3318> out of the land 
<0776> of Egypt <4714> with a mighty <2389> hand <3027>, and 
hast gotten <6213> thee renown <8034>, as at this day <3117>; we 
have sinned <2398>, we have done wickedly <7561>.



9:16 O Lord <0136>, according to all <3605> thy righteousness 
<6666>, I beseech <4994> thee, let thine anger <0639> and thy 
fury <2534> be turned <7725> away from thy city <5892> Jerusalem 
<3389>, thy holy <6944> mountain <2022>: because <3588> for our 
sins <2399>, and for the iniquities <5771> of our fathers <1>, 
Jerusalem <3389> and thy people <5971> [are become] a reproach 
<2781> to all <3605> [that are] about <5439> us.



9:17 Now <6258> therefore, O our God <0430>, hear <8085> the 
prayer <8605> of thy servant <5650>, and his supplications 
<8469>, and cause thy face <6440> to shine <0215> upon thy 
sanctuary <4720> that is desolate <8074>, for the Lord's <0136> 
sake <4616>.



9:18 O my God <0430>, incline <5186> thine ear <0241>, and hear 
<8085>; open <6491> thine eyes <5869>, and behold <7200> our 
desolations <8074>, and the city <5892> which <0834> is called 
<7121> by thy name <8034>: for we do not present <5307> our 
supplications <8469> before <6440> thee for our righteousnesses 
<6666>, but for thy great <7227> mercies <7356>.



9:19 O Lord <0136>, hear <8085>; O Lord <0136>, forgive <5545>; 
O Lord <0136>, hearken <7181> and do <6213>; defer <0309> not, 
for thine own sake <4616>, O my God <0430>: for thy city <5892> 
and thy people <5971> are called <7121> by thy name <8034>.



9:20. And whiles <5750> I [was] speaking <1696>, and praying 
<6419>, and confessing <3034> my sin <2403> and the sin <2403> 
of my people <5971> Israel <3478>, and presenting <5307> my 
supplication <8467> before <6440> the LORD <3068> my God <0430> 
for the holy <6944> mountain <2022> of my God <0430>;



9:21 Yea, whiles I [was] speaking <1696> in prayer <8605>, even 
the man <0376> Gabriel <1403>, whom <0834> I had seen <7200> in 
the vision <2377> at the beginning <8462>, being caused to fly 
<3286> swiftly <3288>, touched <5060> me about the time <6256> 
of the evening <6153> oblation <4503>.



9:22 And he informed <0995> [me], and talked <1696> with me, and 
said <0559>, O Daniel <1840>, I am now <6258> come <3318> forth 
<3318> to give thee skill <7919> and understanding <0998>.



9:23 At the beginning <8462> of thy supplications <8469> the 
commandment <1697> came <3318> forth <3318>, and I am come 
<0935> to shew <5046> [thee]; for thou [art] greatly beloved 
<2530>: therefore understand <0995> the matter <1697>, and 
consider <0995> the vision <2377>.



9:24 Seventy <7657> weeks <7620> are determined <2852> upon thy 
people <5971> and upon thy holy <6944> city <5892>, to finish 
<3607> the transgression <6588>, and to make an end <2856> of 
sins <2403>, and to make reconciliation <3722> for iniquity 
<5771>, and to bring <0935> in everlasting <5769> righteousness 
<6664>, and to seal <2856> up the vision <2377> and prophecy 
<5030>, and to anoint <4886> the most <6944> Holy <6944>.



9:25 Know <3045> therefore and understand <7919>, [that] from 
the going <4161> forth <4161> of the commandment <1697> to 
restore <7725> and to build <1129> Jerusalem <3389> unto the 
Messiah <4899> the Prince <5057> [shall be] seven <7651> weeks 
<7620>, and threescore <8346> and two <8147> weeks <7620>: the 
street <7339> shall be built <1129> again <7725>, and the wall 
<2742>, even in troublous <5916> times <6256>.



9:26 And after <0310> threescore <8346> and two <8147> weeks 
<7620> shall Messiah <4899> be cut <3772> off, but not for 
himself: and the people <5971> of the prince <5057> that shall 
come <0935> shall destroy <7843> the city <5892> and the 
sanctuary <6944>; and the end <7093> thereof [shall be] with a 
flood <7858>, and unto the end <7093> of the war <4421> 
desolations <8074> are determined <2782>.



9:27 And he shall confirm <1396> the covenant <1285> with many 
<7227> for one <0259> week <7620>: and in the midst <2677> of 
the week <7620> he shall cause the sacrifice <2077> and the 
oblation <4503> to cease <7673>, and for the overspreading 
<3671> of abominations <8251> he shall make [it] desolate <8074>,
 even until <5704> the consummation <3617>, and that determined 
<2782> shall be poured <5413> upon the desolate <8076>.



Daniel 10



10:1. In the third <7969> year <8141> of Cyrus <3566> king 
<4428> of Persia <6539> a thing <1697> was revealed <1540> unto 
Daniel <1840>, whose <0834> name <8034> was called <7121> 
Belteshazzar <1095>; and the thing <1697> [was] true <0571>, but 
the time appointed <6635> [was] long <1419>: and he understood 
<0995> the thing <1697>, and had understanding <0998> of the 
vision <4758>.



10:2 In those <1992> days <3117> I Daniel <1840> was mourning 
<56> three <7969> full <3117> weeks <7620>.



10:3 I ate <0398> no <3808> pleasant <2530> bread <3899>, 
neither <3808> came <0935> flesh <1320> nor <3808> wine <3196> 
in my mouth <6310>, neither <3808> did I anoint <5480> myself at 
all, till <5704> three <7969> whole <3117> weeks <7620> were 
fulfilled <4390>.



10:4 And in the four <0702> and twentieth <6242> day <3117> of 
the first <7223> month <2320>, as I was by the side <3027> of 
the great <1419> river <5104>, which <1931> [is] Hiddekel <2313>;



10:5 Then I lifted <5375> up mine eyes <5869>, and looked <7200>,
 and behold <2009> a certain <0259> man <0376> clothed <3847> in 
linen <0906>, whose loins <4975> [were] girded <2296> with fine 
gold <3800> of Uphaz <0210>:



10:6 His body <1472> also [was] like the beryl <8658>, and his 
face <6440> as the appearance <4758> of lightning <1300>, and 
his eyes <5869> as lamps <3940> of fire <0784>, and his arms 
<2220> and his feet <4772> like in colour <5869> to polished 
<7044> brass <5178>, and the voice <6963> of his words <1697> 
like the voice <6963> of a multitude <1995>.



10:7 And I Daniel <1840> alone <0905> saw <7200> the vision 
<4759>: for the men <0582> that were with me saw <7200> not the 
vision <4759>; but a great <1419> quaking <2731> fell <5307> 
upon them, so that they fled <1272> to hide <2244> themselves.



10:8 Therefore I was left <7604> alone <0905>, and saw <7200> 
this great <1419> vision <4759>, and there remained <7604> no 
<3808> strength <3581> in me: for my comeliness <1935> was 
turned <2015> in me into corruption <4889>, and I retained 
<6113> no <3808> strength <3581>.



10:9 Yet heard <8085> I the voice <6963> of his words <1697>: 
and when I heard <8085> the voice <6963> of his words <1697>, 
then was I in a deep <7290> sleep <7290> on my face <6440>, and 
my face <6440> toward the ground <0776>.



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



10:11 And he said <0559> unto me, O Daniel <1840>, a man <0376> 
greatly beloved <2530>, understand <0995> the words <1697> that 
I speak <1696> unto thee, and stand <5975> upright <5977>: for 
unto thee am I now <6258> sent <7971>. And when he had spoken 
<1696> this <2088> word <1697> unto me, I stood <5975> trembling 
<7460>.



10:12 Then said <0559> he unto me, Fear <3372> not, Daniel 
<1840>: for from the first <7223> day <3117> that thou didst set 
<5414> thine heart <3820> to understand <0995>, and to chasten 
<6031> thyself before <6440> thy God <0430>, thy words <1697> 
were heard <8085>, and I am come <0935> for thy words <1697>.



10:13 But the prince <8269> of the kingdom <4438> of Persia 
<6539> withstood <5975> me one <0259> and twenty <6242> days 
<3117>: but, lo <2009>, Michael <4317>, one <0259> of the chief 
<7223> princes <8269>, came <0935> to help <5826> me; and I 
remained <3498> there <8033> with the kings <4428> of Persia 
<6539>.



10:14 Now I am come <0935> to make thee understand <0995> what 
shall befall <7136> thy people <5971> in the latter <0319> days 
<3117>: for yet <5750> the vision <2377> [is] for [many] days 
<3117>.



10:15 And when he had spoken <1696> such <0428> words <1697> 
unto me, I set <5414> my face <6440> toward the ground <0776>, 
and I became <0481> dumb <0481>.



10:16 And, behold <2009>, [one] like the similitude <1823> of 
the sons <1121> of men <0120> touched <5060> my lips <8193>: 
then I opened <6605> my mouth <6310>, and spake <1696>, and said 
<0559> unto him that stood <5975> before <6440> me, O my lord 
<0113>, by the vision <4758> my sorrows <6735> are turned <2015> 
upon me, and I have retained <6113> no <3808> strength <3581>.



10:17 For how <1963> can <3201> the servant <5650> of this 
<2088> my lord <0113> talk <1696> with this <2088> my lord 
<0113>? for as for me, straightway <6258> there remained <5975> 
no <3808> strength <3581> in me, neither <3808> is there breath 
<5397> left <7604> in me.



10:18 Then there came again <3284> and touched <5060> me [one] 
like the appearance <4758> of a man <0120>, and he strengthened 
<2388> me,



10:19 And said <0559>, O man <0376> greatly beloved <2530>, fear 
<3372> not: peace <7965> [be] unto thee, be strong <2388>, yea, 
be strong <2388>. And when he had spoken <1696> unto me, I was 
strengthened <2388>, and said <0559>, Let my lord <0113> speak 
<1696>; for thou hast strengthened <2388> me.



10:20 Then said <0559> he, Knowest <3045> thou wherefore <4100> 
I come <0935> unto thee? and now <6258> will I return <7725> to 
fight <3898> with the prince <8269> of Persia <6539>: and when I 
am gone <3318> forth <3318>, lo <2009>, the prince <8269> of 
Grecia <3120> shall come <0935>.



10:21 But I will shew <5046> thee that which is noted <7559> in 
the scripture <3791> of truth <0571>: and [there is] none <0369> 
that holdeth <2388> with me in these <0428> things, but Michael 
<4317> your prince <8269>.



Daniel 11



11:1. Also I in the first <0259> year <8141> of Darius <1867> 
the Mede <4075>, [even] I, stood <5975> to confirm <2388> and to 
strengthen <4581> him.



11:2 And now <6258> will I shew <5046> thee the truth <0571>. 
Behold <2009>, there shall stand <5975> up yet <5750> three 
<7969> kings <4428> in Persia <6539>; and the fourth <7243> 
shall be far <1419> richer <6238> than [they] all <3605>: and by 
his strength <2394> through his riches <6239> he shall stir 
<5782> up all <3605> against the realm <4438> of Grecia <3120>.



11:3 And a mighty <1368> king <4428> shall stand <5975> up, that 
shall rule <4910> with great <7227> dominion <4474>, and do 
<6213> according to his will <7522>.



11:4 And when he shall stand <5975> up, his kingdom <4438> shall 
be broken <7665>, and shall be divided <2673> toward the four 
<0702> winds <7307> of heaven <8064>; and not to his posterity 
<0319>, nor <3808> according to his dominion <4915> which <0834> 
he ruled <4910>: for his kingdom <4438> shall be plucked <5428> 
up, even for others <0312> beside <0905> those <0428>.



11:5. And the king <4428> of the south <5045> shall be strong 
<2388>, and [one] of his princes <8269>; and he shall be strong 
<2388> above <5921> him, and have dominion <4910>; his dominion 
<4474> [shall be] a great <7227> dominion <4474>.



11:6 And in the end <7093> of years <8141> they shall join 
<2266> themselves together; for the king's <4428> daughter 
<1323> of the south <5045> shall come <0935> to the king <4428> 
of the north <6828> to make <6213> an agreement <4339>: but she 
shall not retain <6113> the power <3581> of the arm <2220>; 
neither <3808> shall he stand <5975>, nor his arm <2220>: but 
she shall be given <5414> up, and they that brought <0935> her, 
and he that begat <3205> her, and he that strengthened <2388> 
her in [these] times <6256>.



11:7 But out of a branch <5342> of her roots <8328> shall [one] 
stand <5975> up in his estate <3653>, which shall come <0935> 
with an army <2428>, and shall enter <0935> into the fortress 
<4581> of the king <4428> of the north <6828>, and shall deal 
<6213> against them, and shall prevail <2388>:



11:8 And shall also <1571> carry <0935> captives <7628> into 
Egypt <4714> their gods <0430>, with their princes <5257>, [and] 
with their precious <2532> vessels <3627> of silver <3701> and 
of gold <2091>; and he shall continue <5975> [more] years <8141> 
than the king <4428> of the north <6828>.



11:9 So the king <4428> of the south <5045> shall come <0935> 
into [his] kingdom <4438>, and shall return <7725> into <0413> 
his own land <0127>.



11:10 But his sons <1121> shall be stirred <1624> up, and shall 
assemble <0622> a multitude <1995> of great <7227> forces <2428>:
 and [one] shall certainly come <0935>, and overflow <7857>, and 
pass <5674> through: then shall he return <7725>, and be stirred 
<1624> up, [even] to his fortress <4581>.



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



11:12 [And] when he hath taken <5375> away the multitude <1995>, 
his heart <3824> shall be lifted <7311> up; and he shall cast 
<5307> down <5307> [many] ten <7239> thousands <7239>: but he 
shall not be strengthened <5810> [by it].



11:13 For the king <4428> of the north <6828> shall return 
<7725>, and shall set <5975> forth a multitude <1995> greater 
<7227> than <4480> the former <7223>, and shall certainly come 
<0935> after <7093> certain <6256> years <8141> with a great 
<1419> army <2428> and with much riches <7399>.



11:14 And in those <1992> times <6256> there shall many <7227> 
stand <5975> up against <5921> the king <4428> of the south 
<5045>: also the robbers <6530> of thy people <5971> shall exalt 
<5375> themselves to establish <5975> the vision <2377>; but 
they shall fall <3782>.



11:15 So the king <4428> of the north <6828> shall come <0935>, 
and cast <8210> up a mount <5550>, and take <3920> the most 
fenced <4013> cities <5892>: and the arms <2220> of the south 
<5045> shall not withstand <5975>, neither <0369> his chosen 
<4005> people <5971>, neither <0369> [shall there be any] 
strength <3581> to withstand <5975>.



11:16 But he that cometh <0935> against <0413> him shall do 
<6213> according to his own <7522> will <7522>, and none <0369> 
shall stand <5975> before <6440> him: and he shall stand <5975> 
in the glorious <6643> land <0776>, which by his hand <3027> 
shall be consumed <3615>.



11:17 He shall also set <7760> his face <6440> to enter <0935> 
with the strength <8633> of his whole <3605> kingdom <4438>, and 
upright <3477> ones with him; thus shall he do <6213>: and he 
shall give <5414> him the daughter <1323> of women <0802>, 
corrupting <7843> her: but she shall not stand <5975> [on his 
side], neither <3808> be for him.



11:18 After this shall he turn <7725> his face <6440> unto the 
isles <0339>, and shall take <3920> many <7227>: but a prince 
<7101> for his own behalf shall cause the reproach <2781> 
offered by him to cease <7673>; without <1115> his own reproach 
<2781> he shall cause [it] to turn <7725> upon him.



11:19 Then he shall turn <7725> his face <6440> toward the fort 
<4581> of his own land <0776>: but he shall stumble <3782> and 
fall <5307>, and not be found <4672>.



11:20 Then shall stand <5975> up in his estate <3653> a raiser 
<5674> of taxes <5065> [in] the glory <1925> of the kingdom 
<4438>: but within few <0259> days <3117> he shall be destroyed 
<7665>, neither <3808> in anger <0639>, nor <3808> in battle 
<4421>.



11:21. And in his estate <3653> shall stand <5975> up a vile 
<0959> person, to whom <5921> they shall not give <5414> the 
honour <1935> of the kingdom <4438>: but he shall come <0935> in 
peaceably <7962>, and obtain <2388> the kingdom <4438> by 
flatteries <2519>.



11:22 And with the arms <2220> of a flood <7858> shall they be 
overflown <7857> from before <6440> him, and shall be broken 
<7665>; yea <1571>, also <1571> the prince <5057> of the 
covenant <1285>.



11:23 And after the league <2266> [made] with him he shall work 
<6213> deceitfully <4820>: for he shall come <5927> up, and 
shall become <6105> strong <6105> with a small <4592> people 
<1471>.



11:24 He shall enter <0935> peaceably <7962> even upon the 
fattest <4924> places of the province <4082>; and he shall do 
<6213> [that] which <0834> his fathers <1> have not done <6213>, 
nor his fathers <1>' fathers <1>; he shall scatter <0967> among 
them the prey <0961>, and spoil <7998>, and riches <7399>: [yea],
 and he shall forecast <2803> his devices <4284> against <5921> 
the strong <4013> holds <4013>, even for a time <6256>.



11:25 And he shall stir <5782> up his power <3581> and his 
courage <3824> against <5921> the king <4428> of the south 
<5045> with a great <1419> army <2428>; and the king <4428> of 
the south <5045> shall be stirred <1624> up to battle <4421> 
with a very great <1419> and mighty <6099> army <2428>; but he 
shall not stand <5975>: for they shall forecast <2803> devices 
<4284> against <5921> him.



11:26 Yea, they that feed <0398> of the portion <6598> of his 
meat <6598> shall destroy <7665> him, and his army <2428> shall 
overflow <7857>: and many <7227> shall fall <5307> down slain 
<2491>.



11:27 And both <8147> these kings <4428>' hearts <3824> [shall 
be] to do mischief <4827>, and they shall speak <1696> lies 
<3576> at <5921> one <0259> table <7979>; but it shall not 
prosper <6743>: for yet <5750> the end <7093> [shall be] at the 
time appointed <4150>.



11:28 Then shall he return <7725> into his land <0776> with 
great <1419> riches <7399>; and his heart <3824> [shall be] 
against <5921> the holy <6944> covenant <1285>; and he shall do 
<6213> [exploits], and return <7725> to his own land <0776>.



11:29 At the time appointed <4150> he shall return <7725>, and 
come <0935> toward the south <5045>; but it shall not be as the 
former <7223>, or as the latter <0314>.



11:30 For the ships <6716> of Chittim <3794> shall come <0935> 
against him: therefore he shall be grieved <3512>, and return 
<7725>, and have indignation <2194> against <5921> the holy 
<6944> covenant <1285>: so shall he do <6213>; he shall even 
return <7725>, and have intelligence <0995> with them that 
forsake <5800> the holy <6944> covenant <1285>.



11:31 And arms <2220> shall stand <5975> on his part <2506>, and 
they shall pollute <2490> the sanctuary <4720> of strength 
<4581>, and shall take <5493> away <5493> the daily <8548> 
[sacrifice], and they shall place <5414> the abomination <8251> 
that maketh desolate <8074>.



11:32 And such as do wickedly <7561> against the covenant <1285> 
shall he corrupt <2610> by flatteries <2514>: but the people 
<5971> that do know <3045> their God <0430> shall be strong 
<2388>, and do <6213> [exploits].



11:33 And they that understand <7919> among the people <5971> 
shall instruct <0995> many <7227>: yet they shall fall <3782> by 
the sword <2719>, and by flame <3852>, by captivity <7628>, and 
by spoil <0961>, [many] days <3117>.



11:34 Now when they shall fall <3782>, they shall be holpen 
<5826> with a little <4592> help <5828>: but many <7227> shall 
cleave <3867> to them with flatteries <2519>.



11:35 And [some] of them of understanding <7919> shall fall 
<3782>, to try <6884> them, and to purge <1305>, and to make 
[them] white <3835>, [even] to the time <6256> of the end <7093>:
 because [it is] yet <5750> for a time appointed <4150>.



11:36 And the king <4428> shall do <6213> according to his will 
<7522>; and he shall exalt <7311> himself, and magnify <1431> 
himself above <5921> every <3605> god <0410>, and shall speak 
<1696> marvellous <6381> things against <5921> the God <0410> of 
gods <0410>, and shall prosper <6743> till <5704> the 
indignation <2195> be accomplished <3615>: for that that is 
determined <2782> shall be done <6213>.



11:37 Neither <3808> shall he regard <0995> the God <0430> of 
his fathers <1>, nor the desire <2532> of women <0802>, nor 
<3808> regard <0995> any <3605> god <0433>: for he shall magnify 
<1431> himself above <5921> all <3605>.



11:38 But in his estate <3653> shall he honour <3513> the God 
<0433> of forces <4581>: and a god <0433> whom <0834> his 
fathers <1> knew <3045> not shall he honour <3513> with gold 
<2091>, and silver <3701>, and with precious <3368> stones <68>, 
and pleasant <2530> things.



11:39 Thus shall he do <6213> in the most <4581> strong <4581> 
holds <4013> with a strange <5236> god <0433>, whom <0834> he 
shall acknowledge <5234> [and] increase <7235> with glory <3519>:
 and he shall cause them to rule <4910> over many <7227>, and 
shall divide <2505> the land <0127> for gain <4242>.



11:40 And at the time <6256> of the end <7093> shall the king 
<4428> of the south <5045> push <5055> at him: and the king 
<4428> of the north <6828> shall come <8175> against <5921> him 
like a whirlwind <8175>, with chariots <7393>, and with horsemen 
<6571>, and with many <7227> ships <0591>; and he shall enter 
<0935> into the countries <0776>, and shall overflow <7857> and 
pass <5674> over <5674>.



11:41 He shall enter <0935> also into the glorious <6643> land 
<0776>, and many <7227> [countries] shall be overthrown <3782>: 
but these <0428> shall escape <4422> out of his hand <3027>, 
[even] Edom <0123>, and Moab <4124>, and the chief <7225> of the 
children <1121> of Ammon <5983>.



11:42 He shall stretch <7971> forth his hand <3027> also upon 
the countries <0776>: and the land <0776> of Egypt <4714> shall 
not escape <6413>.



11:43 But he shall have power <4910> over the treasures <4362> 
of gold <2091> and of silver <3701>, and over all <3605> the 
precious <2530> things of Egypt <4714>: and the Libyans <3864> 
and the Ethiopians <3569> [shall be] at his steps <4703>.



11:44 But tidings <8052> out of the east <4217> and out of the 
north <6828> shall trouble <0926> him: therefore he shall go 
<3318> forth <3318> with great <1419> fury <2534> to destroy 
<8045>, and utterly to make away <2763> many <7227>.



11:45 And he shall plant <5193> the tabernacles <0168> of his 
palace <0643> between <0996> the seas <3220> in the glorious 
<6643> holy <6944> mountain <2022>; yet he shall come <0935> to 
his end <7093>, and none <0369> shall help <5826> him.



Daniel 12



12:1. And at that time <6256> shall Michael <4317> stand <5975> 
up, the great <1419> prince <8269> which standeth <5975> for the 
children <1121> of thy people <5971>: and there shall be a time 
<6256> of trouble <6869>, such <0834> as never <3808> was since 
there was a nation <1471> [even] to that same <1931> time <6256>:
 and at that time <6256> thy people <5971> shall be delivered 
<4422>, every <3605> one that shall be found <4672> written 
<3789> in the book <5612>.



12:2 And many <7227> of them that sleep <3463> in the dust 
<6083> of the earth <0127> shall awake <6974>, some <0428> to 
everlasting <5769> life <2416>, and some <0428> to shame <2781> 
[and] everlasting <5769> contempt <1860>.



12:3 And they that be wise <7919> shall shine <2094> as the 
brightness <2096> of the firmament <7549>; and they that turn 
many <7227> to righteousness <6663> as the stars <3556> for ever 
<5769> and ever <5703>.



12:4 But thou, O Daniel <1840>, shut <5640> up the words <1697>, 
and seal <2856> the book <5612>, [even] to the time <6256> of 
the end <7093>: many <7227> shall run <7751> to and fro <7751>, 
and knowledge <1847> shall be increased <7235>.



12:5. Then I Daniel <1840> looked <7200>, and, behold <2009>, 
there stood <5975> other <0312> two <8147>, the one <0259> on 
this <2008> side of the bank <8193> of the river <2975>, and the 
other <0259> on that side of the bank <8193> of the river <2975>.



12:6 And [one] said <0559> to the man <0376> clothed <3847> in 
linen <0906>, which <0834> [was] upon the waters <4325> of the 
river <2975>, How <5704> long <5704> [shall it be to] the end 
<7093> of these wonders <6382>?



12:7 And I heard <8085> the man <0376> clothed <3847> in linen 
<0906>, which <0834> [was] upon the waters <4325> of the river 
<2975>, when he held <7311> up his right <3225> hand <3225> and 
his left <8040> hand <8040> unto heaven <8064>, and sware <7650> 
by him that liveth <2416> for ever <5769> that [it shall be] for 
a time <4150>, times <4150>, and an half <2677>; and when he 
shall have accomplished <3615> to scatter <5310> the power 
<3027> of the holy <6944> people <5971>, all <3605> these <0428> 
[things] shall be finished <3615>.



12:8 And I heard <8085>, but I understood <0995> not: then said 
<0559> I, O my Lord <0113>, what <4100> [shall be] the end 
<0319> of these <0428> [things]?



12:9 And he said <0559>, Go <3212> thy way, Daniel <1840>: for 
the words <1697> [are] closed <5640> up and sealed <2856> till 
<5704> the time <6256> of the end <7093>.



12:10 Many <7227> shall be purified <1305>, and made white 
<3835>, and tried <6884>; but the wicked <7563> shall do 
wickedly <7561>: and none <3808> of the wicked <7563> shall 
understand <0995>; but the wise <7919> shall understand <0995>.



12:11 And from the time <6256> [that] the daily <8548> 
[sacrifice] shall be taken <5493> away <5493>, and the 
abomination <8251> that maketh desolate <8074> set <5414> up, 
[there shall be] a thousand <0505> two hundred <3967> and ninety 
<8673> days <3117>.



12:12 Blessed <0835> [is] he that waiteth <2442>, and cometh 
<5060> to the thousand <0505> three <7969> hundred <3967> and 
five <2568> and thirty <7970> days <3117>.



12:13 But go <3212> thou thy way <1870> till the end <7093> [be]:
 for thou shalt rest <5117>, and stand <5975> in thy lot <1486> 
at the end <7093> of the days <3117>.
