Daniel 8:5-14

Leeser(i) 5 And as I was looking attentively, behold, there came a shaggy, he-goat from the west over the face of the whole earth, without touching the ground; and the goat had a sightly large horn between his eyes. 6 And he came as far as the ram that had two horns, that I had seen standing before the river, and ran at him with his furious power. 7 And I saw him coming close unto the ram, and he became bitterly enraged against him, and he struck the ram, and broke his two horns: and there was no power in the ram to stand forward before him: and he cast him down to the ground, and stamped upon him; and there was no one to deliver the ram out of his hand. 8 And the shaggy he-goat became very great: but when he was grown strong, the great horn was broken; and there came up four slightly large ones in its place toward the four winds of heaven. 9 And out of them came forth a little horn, which became exceedingly great, toward the south, and toward the east, and toward the glorious land. 10 And it became great, even up to the host of the heavens; and it cast down to the ground some of the host and of the stars, and trod them under foot. 11 Yea, it magnified itself even up to the prince of the host, and by it the continual sacrifice was taken away, and the place of his sanctuary was cast down. 12 And the host is given up together with the continual sacrifice, by reason of transgression: and it casteth down the truth to the ground, and it doth this, and is prosperous. 13 Then did I hear a certain holy one speaking, and a holy one said unto the unknown one who was speaking, For how long is the vision concerning the continual sacrifice, and the wasting transgression, to give up both the sanctuary and the host to be trodden under foot? 14 And he said unto me, Until two thousand and three hundred evenings and mornings, when the sanctuary shall be justified.
