Daniel 7:3-8
3
Four huge beasts came up out of the ocean, each one different from the others.
4
The first one looked like a lion, but had wings like an eagle. While I was watching, the wings were torn off. The beast was lifted up and made to stand up straight. And then a human mind was given to it.
5
The second beast looked like a bear standing on its hind legs. It was holding three ribs between its teeth, and a voice said to it, "Go on, eat as much meat as you can!"
6
While I was watching, another beast appeared. It looked like a leopard, but on its back there were four wings, like the wings of a bird, and it had four heads. It had a look of authority about it.
7

Daniel 8:3-14
3
and there beside the river I saw a ram that had two long horns, one of which was longer and newer than the other.
4
I watched the ram butting with his horns to the west, the north, and the south. No animal could stop him or escape his power. He did as he pleased and grew arrogant.
5
While I was wondering what this meant, a goat came rushing out of the west, moving so fast that his feet didn't touch the ground. He had one prominent horn between his eyes.
6
He came toward the ram, which I had seen standing beside the river, and rushed at him with all his force.
7
I watched him attack the ram. He was so angry that he smashed into him and broke the two horns. The ram had no strength to resist. He was thrown to the ground and trampled on, and there was no one who could save him.
8
The goat grew more and more arrogant, but at the height of his power his horn was broken. In its place four prominent horns came up, each pointing in a different direction.
9
Out of one of these four horns grew a little horn, whose power extended toward the south and the east and toward the Promised Land.
10
It grew strong enough to attack the army of heaven, the stars themselves, and it threw some of them to the ground and trampled on them.
11

12
People sinned there instead of offering the proper daily sacrifices, and true religion was thrown to the ground. The horn was successful in everything it did.
13

35
