19. And he said, Behold, I will make you know what shall be in the latter end of the indignation: for at the time appointed the end shall be.
20. The ram which you saw having two horns are the kings of Media and Persia.
21. And the male goat is the king of Greece: and the great horn that is between his eyes is the first king.
22. As for that horn being broken, and the four that stood up in its place, four kingdoms shall stand up out of that nation, but not with its power.
23. And in the latter time of their kingdom, when the transgressors have come to their fullness, a king of bold countenance, and understanding riddles, shall stand up.
24. And his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power: and he shall destroy awesomely, and shall prosper, and thrive, and shall destroy the mighty and the holy people.
25. And through his cunning also he shall cause deceit to prosper under his hand; and he shall magnify himself in his heart, and without warning shall destroy many: he shall also stand up against the Prince of princes; but he shall be broken, by no human hand.
26. And the vision of the evening and the morning which was told is true: therefore shut up the vision; for it shall be many days hence.
27. And I Daniel fainted, and was sick certain days; afterward I rose up, and did the king's business; and I was astonished at the vision, but none understood it.
