01 : 11 Then said <00559  +>amar > Daniel <01840  +Daniye>l > to

01 : 12 Prove <05254  +nacah > thy servants <05650  +<ebed > ,  I

01 : 13 Then let our countenances <04758  +mar>eh > be looked <07200

01 : 14 So he consented <08085  +shama< > to them in this <02088

01 : 16 Thus Melzar <04453  +meltsar > took <05375  +nasa> > away

01 : 18 Now at the end <07117  +q@tsath > of the days <03117  +yowm

01 : 19 And the king <04428  +melek > communed <01696  +dabar > with

sleep <08142  +shehah > brake <01961  +hayah > from him .


02 : 02 Then the king <04428  +melek > commanded <00559  +>amar > to

call <07121  +qara> > the magicians <02748  +chartom > ,  and the

astrologers <00825  +>ashshaph > ,  and the sorcerers <03784

02 : 04 Then spake <01696  +dabar > the Chaldeans <03779  +Kasday >

02 : 05 The king <04430  +melek > answered <06032  +<anah > and said

02 : 07 They answered <06032  +<anah > again <08579  +tinyanuwth >

02 : 08 The king <04430  +melek > answered <06032  +<anah > and said

02 : 10 The Chaldeans <03779  +Kasday > answered <06032  +<anah >

02 : 12 For this <01836  +den > cause the king <04430  +melek > was

angry <01149  +b@nac > and very <07690  +saggiy> > furious <07108

07 : 10 A fiery <05135  +nuwr > stream <05103  +n@har > issued

<05047  +n@gad > and came <05312  +n@phaq > forth <05312  +n@phaq >

from before <06925  +qodam > him : thousand <00506  +>alaph >

thousands <00506  +>alaph > ministered <08120  +sh@mash > unto him ,

and ten <07240  +ribbow > thousand <07240  +ribbow > times ten

<07240  +ribbow > thousand <07240  +ribbow > stood <06966  +quwm >

before <06925  +qodam > him : the judgment <01780  +diyn > was set

<03488  +y@thiyb > ,  and the books <05609  +c@phar > were opened

<06606  +p@thach > .


07 : 11 I beheld then <00116  +>edayin > because <04481  +min > of

the voice <07032  +qal > of the great <07260  +rabrab > words <04406

+millah > which <01768  +diy > the horn <07162  +qeren > spake

<04449  +m@lal > : I beheld  [ even <05705  +<ad > ]  till <05704

+<ad > the beast <02423  +cheyva> > was slain <06992  +q@tal > ,

and his body <01655  +geshem > destroyed <7> ,  and given <03052

+y@hab > to the burning <03346  +y@qeda> > flame <00785  +>esh > .


07 : 12 As concerning the rest <07606  +sh@>ar > of the beasts

<02423  +cheyva> > ,  they had their dominion <07985  +sholtan >

taken <05709  +<ada> > away <05709  +<ada> > : yet their lives

<02417  +chay > were prolonged for a season <02166  +z@man > and

time <05732  +<iddan > .


07 : 13 I saw <02370  +chaza> > in the night <06916  +qiddah >

visions <02376  +chezev > ,  and ,  behold <00718  +>aruw > ,   [

one ]  like the Son <01247  +bar > of man <00606  +>enash > came

+q@reb > before <06925  +qodam > him .


07 : 14 And there was given <03052  +y@hab > him dominion <07985

+sholtan > ,  and glory <03367  +y@qar > ,  and a kingdom <04437

nations <00524  +>ummah > ,  and languages <03961  +lishshan > ,

should serve <06399  +p@lach > him : his dominion <07985  +sholtan >

[ is ]  an everlasting <05957  +<alam > dominion <07985  +sholtan >

,  which <01768  +diy > shall not pass <05709  +<ada> > away <05709

<01768  +diy > shall not be destroyed <02255  +chabal > .


07 : 15 .  I Daniel <01841  +Daniye>l > was grieved <03735  +Kara> >

in my spirit <07308  +ruwach > in the midst <01459  +gav > of  [ my

head <07217  +re>sh > troubled <00927  +b@hal > me .


07 : 16 I came <07127  +q@reb > near <07127  +q@reb > unto one

<02298  +chad > of them that stood <06966  +quwm > by ,  and asked

<01156  +b@<a> > him the truth <03330  +yatstsiyb > of all <03606

made me know <03046  +y@da< > the interpretation <06591  +p@shar >

of the things <04406  +millah > .


07 : 17 These <00459  +>illeyn > great <07260  +rabrab > beasts

07 : 18 But the saints <06922  +qaddiysh > of the most <05946

07 : 19 Then <00116  +>edayin > I would <06634  +ts@ba> > know

<03046  +y@da< > the truth <03321  +y@tseb > of the fourth <07244

exceeding <03493  +yattiyr > dreadful <01763  +d@chal > ,  whose

<07606  +sh@>ar > with his feet <07271  +r@gal > ;


07 : 20 And of the ten <06236  +<asar > horns <07162  +qeren > that

<00317  +>ochoriy > which <01768  +diy > came <05559  +c@liq > up ,

<07229  +rab > than <04481  +min > his fellows <02273  +chabrah > .


07 : 21 I beheld ,  and the same <01797  +dikken > horn <07162

+qeren > made <05648  +<abad > war <07129  +q@rab > with the saints

<06922  +qaddiysh > ,  and prevailed <03202  +y@kel > against them ;


07 : 22 Until <05704  +<ad > the Ancient <06268  +<attiyq > of days

<03118  +yowm > came <00858  +>athah > ,  and judgment <01780  +diyn

07 : 23 Thus <03652  +ken > he said <00560  +>amar > ,  The fourth

<07244  +r@biy<ay > beast <02423  +cheyva> > shall be the fourth

<01854  +daqaq > it in pieces .


07 : 24 And the ten <06236  +<asar > horns <07162  +qeren > out of

this kingdom <04437  +malkuw >  [ are ]  ten <06236  +<asar > kings

<04430  +melek >  [ that ]  shall arise <06965  +quwm > : and

three <08532  +t@lath > kings <04430  +melek > .


07 : 25 And he shall speak <04449  +m@lal >  [ great ]  words <04406

+millah > against<06655  +tsad > the most <05943  +<illay > High

times <02166  +z@man > and laws <01882  +dath > : and they shall be

+<ad > a time <05732  +<iddan > and times <05732  +<iddan > and the

dividing <06387  +p@lag > of time <05732  +<iddan > .


07 : 26 But the judgment <01780  +diyn > shall sit <03488  +y@thiyb

dominion <07985  +sholtan > ,  to consume <08046  +sh@mad > and to

destroy <7>  [ it ]  unto the end <05491  +cowph > .


07 : 27 And the kingdom <04437  +malkuw > and dominion <07985

+sholtan > ,  and the greatness <07238  +r@buw > of the kingdom

<04437  +malkuw > under <08460  +t@chowth > the whole <03606  +kol >

heaven <08065  +shamayin > ,  shall be given <03052  +y@hab > to the

people <05972  +<am > of the saints <06922  +qaddiysh > of the most

<05945  +>elyown > High <05946  +<elyown > ,  whose kingdom <04437

+malkuw >  [ is ]  an everlasting <05957  +<alam > kingdom <04437

+malkuw > ,  and all <03606  +kol > dominions <07985  +sholtan >

shall serve <06399  +p@lach > and obey <08086  +sh@ma< > him .


07 : 28 Hitherto  [ is ]  the end <05491  +cowph > of the matter

<04406  +millah > .  As for me Daniel <01841  +Daniye>l > ,  my

cogitations <07476  +ra<yown > much <07690  +saggiy> > troubled

<00927  +b@hal > me ,  and my countenance <02122  +ziyv > changed

<08133  +sh@na> > in me : but I kept <05202  +n@tar > the matter

<04406  +millah > in my heart <03821  +leb > .


08 : 01 .  In the third <07969  +shalowsh > year <08141  +shaneh >

of the reign <04438  +malkuwth > of king <04428  +melek > Belshazzar

<01113  +Belsha>tstsar > a vision <02377  +chazown > appeared <07200

+ra>ah > unto me ,   [ even unto ]  me Daniel <01840  +Daniye>l > ,

after <00310  +>achar > that which appeared <07200  +ra>ah > unto me

at the first <08462  +t@chillah > .


08 : 02 And I saw <07200  +ra>ah > in a vision <02377  +chazown > ;

and it came <01961  +hayah > to pass ,  when I saw <07200  +ra>ah >

,  that I  [ was ]  at Shushan <07800  +Shuwshan >  [ in ]  the

palace <01002  +biyrah > ,  which <00834  +>aher >  [ is ]  in the

province <04082  +m@diynah > of Elam <05867  +<Eylam > ;  and I saw

<07200  +ra>ah > in a vision <02377  +chazown > ,  and I was by the

river <00180  +>uwbal > of Ulai <00195  +>Uwlay > .


08 : 03 Then I lifted <05375  +nasa> > up mine eyes <05869  +<ayin >

,  and saw <07200  +ra>ah > ,  and ,  behold <02009  +hinneh > ,

there stood <05975  +<amad > before <06440  +paniym > the river

<00180  +>uwbal > a ram <00352  +>ayil > which had  [ two ]  horns

<07161  +qeren > : and the  [ two ]  horns <07161  +qeren >  [ were

]  high <01364  +gaboahh > ;  but one <00259  +>echad >  [ was ]

higher <01364  +gaboahh > than <04480  +min > the other <08145

+sheniy > ,  and the higher <01364  +gaboahh > came <05927  +<alah >

up last <00314  +>acharown > .


08 : 04 I saw <07200  +ra>ah > the ram <00352  +>ayil > pushing

<05055  +nagach > westward <03220  +yam > ,  and northward <06828

+tsaphown > ,  and southward <05045  +negeb > ;  so that no <03808

+lo> > beasts <02416  +chay > might stand <05975  +<amad > before

<06440  +paniym > him ,  neither <00369  +>ayin >  [ was there any ]

that could deliver <05337  +natsal > out of his hand <03027  +yad >

;  but he did <06213  +<asah > according to his will <07522

+ratsown > ,  and became <01431  +gadal > great <01431  +gadal > .


08 : 05 And as I was considering <00995  +biyn > ,  behold <02009

+hinneh > ,  an he goat <05795  +<ez > came <00935  +bow> > from the

west <04628  +ma<arab > on the face <06440  +paniym > of the whole

<03605  +kol > earth <00776  +>erets > ,  and touched <05060  +naga<

> not the ground <00776  +>erets > : and the goat <06842  +tsaphiyr

>  [ had ]  a notable <02380  +chazuwth > horn <07161  +qeren >

between <00996  +beyn > his eyes <05869  +<ayin > .


08 : 06 And he came <00935  +bow> > to the ram <00352  +>ayil > that

had  [ two ]  horns <07161  +qeren > ,  which <00834  +>aher > I had

seen <07200  +ra>ah > standing <05975  +<amad > before <06440

+paniym > the river <00180  +>uwbal > ,  and ran <07323  +ruwts >

unto him in the fury <02534  +chemah > of his power <03581  +koach >

.


08 : 07 And I saw <07200  +ra>ah > him come <05060  +naga< > close

<00681  +>etsel > unto the ram <00352  +>ayil > ,  and he was moved

with choler <04843  +marar > against <00413  +>el > him ,  and smote

<05221  +nakah > the ram <00352  +>ayil > ,  and brake <07665

+shabar > his two <08147  +sh@nayim > horns <07161  +qeren > : and

there was no <03808  +lo> > power <03581  +koach > in the ram <00352

+>ayil > to stand <05975  +<amad > before <06440  +paniym > him ,

but he cast <07993  +shalak > him down to the ground <00776  +>erets

<03808  +lo> > that could deliver <05337  +natsal > the ram <00352

+>ayil > out of his hand <03027  +yad > .


08 : 08 Therefore the he goat <06842  +tsaphiyr > waxed very great

<01431  +gadal > : and when he was strong <06105  +<atsam > ,  the

great <01419  +gadowl > horn <07161  +qeren > was broken <07665

+shabar > ;  and for it came <05927  +<alah > up four <00702

+>arba< > notable <02380  +chazuwth > ones toward the four <00702

+>arba< > winds <07307  +ruwach > of heaven <08064  +shamayim > .


08 : 09 And out of one <00259  +>echad > of them came <03318

+yatsa> > forth <03318  +yatsa> > a little <04704  +mitsts@<iyrah >

horn <07161  +qeren > ,  which waxed exceeding <03499  +yether >

great <01431  +gadal > ,  toward <00413  +>el > the south <05045

+negeb > ,  and toward <00413  +>el > the east <04217  +mizrach > ,

and toward <00413  +>el > the pleasant <06643  +ts@biy >  [ land ]

.


08 : 10 And it waxed great <01431  +gadal > ,   [ even ]  to the

host <06635  +tsaba> > of heaven <08064  +shamayim > ;  and it cast

<05307  +naphal > down <05307  +naphal >  [ some ]  of the host

<06635  +tsaba> > and of the stars <03556  +kowkab > to the ground

<00776  +>erets > ,  and stamped <07429  +ramac > upon them .


08 : 11 Yea ,  he magnified <01431  +gadal >  [ himself ]  even to

the prince <08269  +sar > of the host <06635  +tsaba> > ,  and by

him the daily <08548  +tamiyd >  [ sacrifice ]  was taken <07311

+ruwm > away <07311  +ruwm > ,  and the place <04349  +makown > of

his sanctuary <04720  +miqdash > was cast <07993  +shalak > down .


08 : 12 And an host <06635  +tsaba> > was given <05414  +nathan >  [

him ]  against <05921  +<al > the daily <08548  +tamiyd >  [

sacrifice ]  by reason of transgression <06588  +pesha< > ,  and it

cast <07993  +shalak > down the truth <00571  +>emeth > to the

ground <00776  +>erets > ;  and it practised <06213  +<asah > ,  and

prospered <06743  +tsalach > .


08 : 13 Then I heard <08085  +shama< > one <00259  +>echad > saint

<06918  +qadowsh > speaking <01696  +dabar > ,  and another <00259

+>echad > saint <06918  +qadowsh > said <00559  +>amar > unto that

certain <06422  +palmowniy >  [ saint ]  which spake <01696  +dabar

vision <02377  +chazown >  [ concerning ]  the daily <08548  +tamiyd

>  [ sacrifice ]  ,  and the transgression <06588  +pesha< > of

desolation <08074  +shamem > ,  to give <05414  +nathan > both the

sanctuary <06944  +qodesh > and the host <06635  +tsaba> > to be

trodden <04823  +mirmac > under foot <04823  +mirmac > ?


08 : 14 And he said <00559  +>amar > unto me ,  Unto two thousand

<00505  +>eleph > and three <07969  +shalowsh > hundred <03967

+me>ah > days ;  then shall the sanctuary <06944  +qodesh > be

cleansed <06663  +tsadaq > .


08 : 15 .  And it came <01961  +hayah > to pass ,  when I ,   [ even

]  I Daniel <01840  +Daniye>l > ,  had seen <07200  +ra>ah > the

vision <02377  +chazown > ,  and sought <01245  +baqash > for the

meaning <00998  +biynah > ,  then ,  behold <02009  +hinneh > ,

there stood <05975  +<amad > before <05048  +neged > me as the

appearance <04758  +mar>eh > of a man <01397  +geber > .


08 : 16 And I heard <08085  +shama< > a man s <00120  +>adam > voice

<06963  +qowl > between <00996  +beyn >  [ the banks of ]  Ulai

<00195  +>Uwlay > ,  which called <07121  +qara> > ,  and said

<00559  +>amar > ,  Gabriel <01403  +Gabriy>el > ,  make this <01975

+hallaz >  [ man ]  to understand <00995  +biyn > the vision <04758

+mar>eh > .


08 : 17 So he came <00935  +bow> > near <00681  +>etsel > where I

stood <05977  +<omed > : and when he came <00935  +bow> > ,  I was

afraid <01204  +ba<ath > ,  and fell <05307  +naphal > upon my face

<06440  +paniym > : but he said <00559  +>amar > unto me ,

Understand <00995  +biyn > ,  O son <01121  +ben > of man <00120

08 : 18 Now as he was speaking <01696  +dabar > with me ,  I was in

a deep <07290  +radam > sleep <07290  +radam > on <05921  +<al > my

face <06440  +paniym > toward the ground <00776  +>erets > : but he

touched <05060  +naga< > me ,  and set <05975  +<amad > me upright

thing <01697  +dabar > ,  and had understanding <00998  +biynah > of

the vision <04758  +mar>eh > .


10 : 02 In those <01992  +hem > days <03117  +yowm > I Daniel <01840

10 : 04 And in the four <00702  +>arba< > and twentieth <06242

10 : 05 Then I lifted <05375  +nasa> > up mine eyes <05869  +<ayin >

of Uphaz <00210  +>Uwphaz > :


10 : 06 His body <01472  +g@viyah > also  [ was ]  like the beryl

<08658  +tarshiysh > ,  and his face <06440  +paniym > as the

appearance <04758  +mar>eh > of lightning <01300  +baraq > ,  and

his eyes <05869  +<ayin > as lamps <03940  +lappiyd > of fire <00784

multitude <01995  +hamown > .


10 : 07 And I Daniel <01840  +Daniye>l > alone <00905  +bad > saw

<01272  +barach > to hide <2244> themselves .


10 : 08 Therefore I was left <07604  +sha>ar > alone <00905  +bad >

10 : 09 Yet heard <08085  +shama< > I the voice <06963  +qowl > of

his words <01697  +dabar > : and when I heard <08085  +shama< > the

voice <06963  +qowl > of his words <01697  +dabar > ,  then was I in

a deep <07290  +radam > sleep <07290  +radam > on my face <06440

10 : 10 .  And ,  behold <02009  +hinneh > ,  an hand <03027  +yad >

10 : 11 And he said <00559  +>amar > unto me ,  O Daniel <01840

this <02088  +zeh > word <01697  +dabar > unto me ,  I stood <05975

+<amad > trembling <7460> .


10 : 12 Then said <00559  +>amar > he unto me ,  Fear <03372  +yare>

+dabar > .


10 : 13 But the prince <08269  +sar > of the kingdom <04438

kings <04428  +melek > of Persia <06539  +Parac > .


10 : 14 Now I am come <00935  +bow> > to make thee understand <00995

<05750  +<owd > the vision <02377  +chazown >  [ is ]  for  [ many ]

days <03117  +yowm > .


10 : 15 And when he had spoken <01696  +dabar > such <00428  +>el -

leh > words <01697  +dabar > unto me ,  I set <05414  +nathan > my

face <06440  +paniym > toward the ground <00776  +>erets > ,  and I

became <00481  +>alam > dumb <00481  +>alam > .


10 : 16 And ,  behold <02009  +hinneh > ,   [ one ]  like the

similitude <01823  +d@muwth > of the sons <01121  +ben > of men

10 : 17 For how <01963  +heyk > can <03201  +yakol > the servant

10 : 18 Then there came again <03284  +ya<anah > and touched <05060

+naga< > me  [ one ]  like the appearance <04758  +mar>eh > of a man

10 : 19 And said <00559  +>amar > ,  O man <00376  +>iysh > greatly

10 : 20 Then said <00559  +>amar > he ,  Knowest <03045  +yada< >

11 : 02 And now <06258  +<attah > will I shew <05046  +nagad > thee

11 : 03 And a mighty <01368  +gibbowr > king <04428  +melek > shall

stand <05975  +<amad > up ,  that shall rule <04910  +mashal > with

11 : 04 And when he shall stand <05975  +<amad > up ,  his kingdom

11 : 11 And the king <04428  +melek > of the south <05045  +negeb >

11 : 12  [ And ]  when he hath taken <05375  +nasa> > away the

11 : 28 Then shall he return <07725  +shuwb > into his land <00776

11 : 29 At the time appointed <04150  +mow<ed > he shall return

11 : 30 For the ships <06716  +tsiy > of Chittim <03794  +Kittiy >

indignation <02194  +za<am > against <05921  +<al > the holy <06944

intelligence <00995  +biyn > with them that forsake <05800  +<azab >

the holy <06944  +qodesh > covenant <01285  +b@riyth > .


11 : 31 And arms <02220  +z@rowa< > shall stand <05975  +<amad > on

and shall take <05493  +cuwr > away <05493  +cuwr > the daily <08548

the abomination <08251  +shiqquwts > that maketh desolate <08074

+shamem > .


11 : 32 And such as do wickedly <07561  +rasha< > against the

covenant <01285  +b@riyth > shall he corrupt <02610  +chaneph > by

flatteries <02514  +chalaqqah > : but the people <05971  +<am > that

do know <03045  +yada< > their God <00430  +>elohiym > shall be

strong <02388  +chazaq > ,  and do <06213  +<asah >  [ exploits ]  .


11 : 33 And they that understand <07919  +sakal > among the people

<05971  +<am > shall instruct <00995  +biyn > many <07227  +rab > :

yet they shall fall <03782  +kashal > by the sword <02719  +chereb >

,  and by spoil <00961  +bizzah > ,   [ many ]  days <03117  +yowm >

.


11 : 34 Now when they shall fall <03782  +kashal > ,  they shall be

holpen <05826  +<azar > with a little <04592  +m@<at > help <05828

+<ezer > : but many <07227  +rab > shall cleave <03867  +lavah > to

them with flatteries <02519  +chalaqlaqqah > .


11 : 35 And  [ some ]  of them of understanding <07919  +sakal >

shall fall <03782  +kashal > ,  to try <06884  +tsaraph > them ,

and to purge <01305  +barar > ,  and to make  [ them ]  white <03835

appointed <04150  +mow<ed > .


11 : 36 And the king <04428  +melek > shall do <06213  +<asah >

according to his will<07522  +ratsown > ;  and he shall exalt <07311

+ruwm > himself ,  and magnify <01431  +gadal > himself above <05921

+<al > every <03605  +kol > god <00410  +>el > ,  and shall speak

<01696  +dabar > marvellous <06381  +pala> > things against <05921

+<al > the God <00410  +>el > of gods <00410  +>el > ,  and shall

prosper <06743  +tsalach > till <05704  +<ad > the indignation

<02195  +za<am > be accomplished <03615  +kalah > : for that that is

determined <02782  +charats > shall be done <06213  +<asah > .


11 : 37 Neither <03808  +lo> > shall he regard <00995  +biyn > the

God <00430  +>elohiym > of his fathers <1> ,  nor the desire <02532

shall magnify <01431  +gadal > himself above <05921  +<al > all

<03605  +kol > .


11 : 38 But in his estate <03653  +ken > shall he honour <03513

+kabad > the God <00433  +>elowahh > of forces <04581  +ma<owz > :

and a god <00433  +>elowahh > whom <00834  +>aher > his fathers <1>

precious <03368  +yaqar > stones <68> ,  and pleasant <02530

+chamad > things .


11 : 39 Thus shall he do <06213  +<asah > in the most <04581

+ma<owz > strong <04581  +ma<owz > holds <04013  +mibtsar > with a

strange <05236  +nekar > god <00433  +>elowahh > ,  whom <00834

divide <02505  +chalaq > the land <00127  +>adamah > for gain <04242

+m@chiyr > .


11 : 40 And at the time <06256  +<eth > of the end <07093  +qets >

shall the king <04428  +melek > of the south <05045  +negeb > push

<05055  +nagach > at him : and the king <04428  +melek > of the

north <06828  +tsaphown > shall come <08175  +sa<ar > against <05921

11 : 42 He shall stretch <07971  +shalach > forth his hand <03027

11 : 43 But he shall have power <04910  +mashal > over the treasures

11 : 44 But tidings <08052  +sh@muw<ah > out of the east <04217

11 : 45 And he shall plant <05193  +nata< > the tabernacles <00168
