29. and while they so thought, behold, there awaked one of the heads that were at rest, namely, it that was in the midst; for that was greater than the two other heads.
30. And I saw how it joined the two other heads with it.
31. And, behold, the head was turned with them that were with it, and did eat up the two under wings that thought to have reigned.
32. But this head held the whole earth in possession, and bare rule over those that dwell therein with much oppression; and it had the governance of the world more than all the wings that had been.
33. And after this I saw, and, behold, the head also that was in the midst suddenly appeared no more, like as the wings.
34. But there remained the two heads, which also in like sort reigned over the earth, and over those that dwell therein.
35. And I saw, and, behold, the head upon the right side devoured it that was upon the left side.
36. Then I heard a voice, which said to me, Look before you, and consider the thing that you see.
37. And I saw, and, behold, as it were a lion roused out of the wood roaring: and I heard how that he sent out a man’s voice to the eagle, and spoke, saying,
38. Hear you, I will talk with you, and the Most High shall say to you,
39. Are not you it that remain of the four beasts, whom I made to reign in my world, that the end of my times might come through them?
