<pb/>Daniel<S>1841</S> answered<S>6032</S> and said,<S>560</S> "Let the name<S>8036</S> of God<S>426</S> be blessed<S>1289</S> forever<S>5957</S> and ever,<S>5957</S> For wisdom<S>2452</S> and power<S>1370</S> belong to Him.</t>

<pb/>While I was observing,<S>995</S> behold,<S>2009</S> a male<S>6842</S> goat<S>6842</S> was coming<S>935</S> from the west<S>4628</S> over<S>5921</S> the surface<S>6440</S> of the whole<S>3605</S> earth<S>776</S> without<S>369</S> touching<S>5060</S> the ground;<S>776</S> and the goat<S>6842</S> [had] a conspicuous<S>2380</S> horn<S>7161</S> between<S>996</S> his eyes.<S>5869</S>


text:
And he came<S>935</S> up to the ram<S>352</S> that had the two horns,<S>7161</S> which<S>834</S> I had seen<S>7200</S> standing<S>5975</S> in front<S>6440</S> of the canal,<S>180</S> and rushed<S>7323</S> at him in his mighty<S>3581</S> wrath.<S>2534</S>


text:
And I saw<S>7200</S> him come<S>5060</S> beside<S>681</S> the ram,<S>352</S> and he was enraged<S>4843</S> at him; and he struck<S>5221</S> the ram<S>352</S> and shattered<S>7665</S> his two<S>8147</S> horns,<S>7161</S> and the ram<S>352</S> had<S>1961</S> no<S>3808</S> strength<S>3581</S> to withstand<S>5975</S> him. So he hurled<S>7993</S> him to the ground<S>776</S> and trampled<S>7429</S> on him, and there was none<S>3808</S> to rescue<S>5337</S> the ram<S>352</S> from his power.<S>3027</S>


text:
Then the male<S>6842</S> goat<S>5795</S> magnified<S>1431</S> [himself] exceedingly.<S>5704</S> <S>3966</S> But as soon as he was mighty,<S>6105</S> the large<S>1419</S> horn<S>7161</S> was broken;<S>7665</S> and in its place<S>8478</S> there came<S>5927</S> up four<S>702</S> conspicuous<S>2380</S> [horns] toward the four<S>702</S> winds<S>7307</S> of heaven.<S>8064</S>


text:
<pb/>And out of one<S>259</S> of them came<S>3318</S> forth<S>3318</S> a rather small<S>6810</S> horn<S>7161</S> which grew<S>1431</S> exceedingly<S>3499</S> great<S>1431</S> toward<S>413</S> the south,<S>5045</S> toward<S>413</S> the east,<S>4217</S> and toward<S>413</S> the Beautiful<S>9469</S> [Land.]


text:
And it grew<S>1431</S> up to the host<S>6635</S> of heaven<S>8064</S> and caused some<S>4480</S> of the host<S>6635</S> and some<S>4480</S> of the stars<S>3556</S> to fall<S>5307</S> to the earth,<S>776</S> and it trampled<S>7429</S> them down.<S>7429</S>


text:
It even<S>5704</S> magnified<S>1431</S> [itself] to be equal<S>5704</S> with the Commander<S>8269</S> of the host;<S>6635</S> and it removed<S>7311</S> the regular<S>8548</S> sacrifice<S>8548</S> from Him, and the place<S>4349</S> of His sanctuary<S>4720</S> was thrown<S>7993</S> down.<S>7993</S>


text:
And on account of transgression<S>6588</S> the host<S>6635</S> will be given<S>5414</S> over [to the horn] along<S>5921</S> with the regular<S>8548</S> sacrifice;<S>8548</S> and it will fling<S>7993</S> truth<S>571</S> to the ground<S>776</S> and perform<S>6213</S> [its will] and prosper.<S>6743</S>


text:
<pb/>Then I heard<S>8085</S> a holy<S>6918</S> one<S>6918</S> speaking,<S>1696</S> and another<S>259</S> holy<S>6918</S> one<S>6918</S> said<S>559</S> to that particular<S>6423</S> one<S>6423</S> who was speaking,<S>1696</S> "How<S>4970</S> long<S>5704</S> <S>4970</S> will the vision<S>2377</S> [about] the regular<S>8548</S> sacrifice<S>8548</S> apply, while the transgression<S>6588</S> causes<S>8074</S> horror,<S>8074</S> so as to allow<S>5414</S> both the holy<S>6944</S> place and the host<S>6635</S> to be trampled<S>4823</S>?"


text:
And he said<S>559</S> to me, "For 2,300 evenings<S>6153</S> [and] mornings;<S>1242</S> then the holy<S>6944</S> place will be properly<S>6663</S> restored.<S>6663</S>"


text:
And it came<S>1961</S> about when I, Daniel,<S>1840</S> had seen<S>7200</S> the vision,<S>2377</S> that I sought<S>1245</S> to understand<S>998</S> it; and behold,<S>2009</S> standing<S>5975</S> before<S>5048</S> me was one who<S>4758</S> looked<S>4758</S> like a man.<S>1397</S>


text:
And I heard<S>8085</S> the voice<S>6963</S> of a man<S>120</S> between<S>996</S> [the banks of] Ulai,<S>195</S> and he called<S>7121</S> out and said,<S>559</S> "Gabriel,<S>1403</S> give<S>995</S> this<S>1975</S> [man] an understanding<S>995</S> of the vision.<S>4758</S>"


text:
So he came<S>935</S> near<S>681</S> to where<S>5977</S> I was standing,<S>5977</S> and when he came<S>935</S> I was frightened<S>1204</S> and fell<S>5307</S> on my face;<S>6440</S> but he said<S>559</S> to me, "Son<S>1121</S> of man,<S>120</S> understand<S>995</S> that the vision<S>2377</S> pertains to the time<S>6256</S> of the end.<S>7093</S>"


text:
Now while he was talking<S>1696</S> with me, I sank<S>7290</S> into a deep<S>7290</S> sleep<S>7290</S> with my face<S>6440</S> to the ground;<S>776</S> but he touched<S>5060</S> me and made me stand<S>5975</S> upright.<S>5921</S> <S>5977</S>


text:
<pb/>And he said,<S>559</S> "Behold,<S>2009</S> I am going to let you know<S>3045</S> what<S>834</S> will occur<S>1961</S> at the final<S>319</S> period<S>319</S> of the indignation,<S>2195</S> for [it] pertains to the appointed<S>4150</S> time<S>4150</S> of the end.<S>7093</S>

<pb/>Then I, Daniel,<S>1840</S> was exhausted<S>1961</S> and sick<S>2470</S> for days.<S>3117</S> Then I got<S>6965</S> up [again] and carried<S>6213</S> on the king's business;<S>4399</S> but I was astounded<S>8074</S> at the vision,<S>4758</S> and there<S>369</S> was none<S>369</S> to explain<S>995</S> [it.]

So he went<S>1980</S> and took<S>3947</S> Gomer<S>1586</S> the daughter<S>1323</S> of Diblaim,<S>1691</S> and she conceived<S>2029</S> and bore<S>3205</S> him a son.<S>1121</S>

<pb/>Then she conceived<S>2029</S> again<S>5750</S> and gave<S>3205</S> birth<S>3205</S> to a daughter.<S>1323</S> And the Lord said<S>559</S> to him, "Name<S>7121</S> <S>8034</S> her Lo-ruhamah, for I will no<S>3808</S> longer<S>3254</S> <S>5750</S> have<S>7355</S> compassion<S>7355</S> on the house<S>1004</S> of Israel,<S>3478</S> that I should ever<S>5375</S> forgive<S>5375</S> them.
