9. For you have judged me worthy to show me the end of time and the last times.
10. And he said to me, This is the interpretation of this vision which you saw:
11. The eagle, whom you saw come up from the sea, is the fourth kingdom which appeared in vision to your brother Daniel.
12. But it was not expounded to him, as I now expound it to you or have expounded it.
13. Behold, the days come, that there shall rise up a kingdom upon earth, and it shall be feared above all the kingdoms that were before it.
14. In the same shall twelve kings reign, one after another:
15. whereof the second shall begin to reign, and shall have a longer time than any of the twelve.
16. This is the interpretation of the twelve wings, which you saw.
17. And whereas you heard a voice which spoke, not going out from the heads, but from the midst of the body thereof, this is the interpretation:
18. That after the time of that kingdom there shall arise no small contentions, and it shall stand in peril of falling: nevertheless it shall not then fall, but shall be restored again to its first estate.
19. And whereas you saw the eight under wings sticking to her wings, this is the interpretation:
20. That in it there shall arise eight kings, whose times shall be but small, and their years swift.
