I noticed his horns, and behold, another one came up in the midst of them, a little horn, and before it three of the former horns were rooted out. And behold, [there were] eyes as the eyes of a man in this horn, and a mouth speaking great things.

I beheld then because of the voice of the great words which that horn spoke, until the wild beast was slain and destroyed, and his body given to be burned with fire.

And he said, The fourth beast shall be the fourth kingdom on the earth, which shall excel [beyond] all [other] kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and trample and destroy it.

And out of one of them came forth one strong horn, and it grew very great toward the south, and toward the host.

And [this shall be] until the Chief Captain has delivered the captivity: and by reason of [the horn] the sacrifice was disturbed, and he prospered; and the holy place shall be made desolate.

And he shall do according to his will, and the king shall exalt and magnify himself against every god, and shall speak great swelling words, and shall prosper until the indignation shall be accomplished; for it is coming to an end.

And he shall not regard any gods of his fathers, nor the desire of women, neither shall he regard any deity: for he shall magnify himself above all.
