Daniel 8:8-17 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

8. And the he goat became exceeding great: and when he was grown, the great horn was broken, and there came up four horns under it towards the four winds of heaven.

9. And out of one of them came forth a little horn: and it became great against the south, and against the east, and against the strength.

10. And it was magnified even unto the strength of heaven: and it threw down of the strength, and of the stars, and trod upon them.

11. And it was magnified even to the prince of the strength: and it took away from him the continual sacrifice, and cast down the place of his sanctuary.

12. And strength was given him against the continual sacrifice, because of sins: and truth shall be cast down on the ground, and he shall do and shall prosper.

13. And I heard one of the saints speaking, and one saint said to another, I know not to whom that was speaking: How long shall be the vision, concerning the continual sacrifice, and the sin of the desolation that is made: and the sanctuary, and the strength be trodden under foot?

14. And he said to him: Unto evening and morning two thousand three hundred days: and the sanctuary shall be cleansed.

15. And it came to pass when I Daniel saw the vision, and sought the meaning, that behold there stood before me as it were the appearance of a man.

16. And I heard the voice of a man between Ulai: and he called, and said: Gabriel, make this man to understand the vision.

17. And he came and stood near where I stood: and when he was come, I fell on my face trembling, and he said to me: Understand, O son of man, for in the time of the end the vision shall be fulfilled.
