20 I also wanted to know about the 10 horns(A) on its head and about the other horn that came up, before which three fell—the horn that had eyes, and a mouth that spoke arrogantly,(B) and that was more visible than the others. 21 As I was watching, this horn waged war(C) against the holy ones and was prevailing over them 22 until the Ancient of Days arrived and a judgment(D) was given in favor of the holy ones of the Most High, for the time had come, and the holy ones took possession of the kingdom.
23 “This is what he said: ‘The fourth beast will be a fourth kingdom on the earth, different from all the other kingdoms. It will devour the whole earth, trample it down, and crush it. 24 The 10 horns(E) are 10 kings who will rise from this kingdom. Another, different from the previous ones, will rise after them and subdue three kings. 25 He will speak words against the Most High(F) and oppress(a) the holy ones(G) of the Most High. He will intend to change religious festivals(b) and laws,(H) and the holy ones will be handed over to him for a time, times, and half a time.(c)(I) 26 But the court will convene,(J) and his dominion will be taken away, to be completely destroyed forever.(K)
