of the Ram and the Goat<p><span class="reftext"><a href="/daniel/8-1.htm"><b>1</b></a></span>In the third yere of the raigne of king Balthasar, there appeared a vision vnto me <FI>euen<Fi> vnto me Daniel, after that which I had seene in the beginning. <A name="3"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/daniel/8-2.htm"><b>2</b></a></span>I saw in a vision (and when I saw it, I was in the palace of Susis, which is in the prouince of Elam) and in the vision me thought I was by the riuer of Ulai. <A name="4"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/daniel/8-3.htm"><b>3</b></a></span>Then I loked vp and saw, & beholde, there stoode before the riuer a ramme which had two hornes: and these two hornes were hye, but one was hyer then the other, & the hyest came vp last. <A name="5"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/daniel/8-4.htm"><b>4</b></a></span>I saw that this ramme pushed with his hornes against the west, against the north, and against the south: so that no beastes might stand before him, nor defend them from his power, but he did as him listed, and became great.<p> <A name="6"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/daniel/8-5.htm"><b>5</b></a></span>And as I considered, beholde there came a hee goate from the west, ouer the whole earth, and touched not the grounde: and this goate had a horne appeared betwixt his eyes. <A name="7"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/daniel/8-6.htm"><b>6</b></a></span>And he came vnto the ramme that had the two hornes (whom I had seene standing by the riuer) and ranne fiercely vpon him with his might. <A name="8"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/daniel/8-7.htm"><b>7</b></a></span>And I sawe him drawe nye vnto the ramme, being very fierce vpon him, yea he smote the ramme and brake his two hornes, neither had the ramme so much strength as to stande before him: but he cast him downe to the grounde, trode him vnder his feete, & there was none able to deliuer the ramme out of his power. <A name="9"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/daniel/8-8.htm"><b>8</b></a></span>Therefore the goate waxed exceeding great, & when he was at the strongest, his great horne was broken: Then grew there other foure notable ones in the steade of it, towarde the foure windes of the heauen.<p> <A name="10"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/daniel/8-9.htm"><b>9</b></a></span>And out of one of them came foorth a litle horne, which waxed very great toward the south, toward the east, and toward the pleasaunt lande. <A name="11"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/daniel/8-10.htm"><b>10</b></a></span>It grewe vp vnto the hoast of heauen, whereof it did cast some downe to the grounde, and of the starres also, and trode them vnder foote. <A name="12"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/daniel/8-11.htm"><b>11</b></a></span>Yea, it grewe vp against the prince of the hoast, from whom the dayly <FI>sacrifice<Fi> was taken away, and the places of his sanctuarie caste downe. <A name="13"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/daniel/8-12.htm"><b>12</b></a></span>And power was geuen vnto it ouer the dayly <FI>sacrifice<Fi> for the iniquitie, and it shall cast downe the trueth to the grounde: and thus shall it do, and prosper. <A name="14"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/daniel/8-13.htm"><b>13</b></a></span>Upon this, I heard one of the sainctes speaking, and one of the sainctes spake vnto Palmoni, saying: how long shal the vision of the dayly <FI>sacrifice<Fi> and of the iniquitie of desolation <FI>endure,<Fi> to geue both the sanctuarie and the power to be troden vnder foote? <A name="15"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/daniel/8-14.htm"><b>14</b></a></span>And he aunswered me: Unto the euening and the morning, two thousand and three hundred: then shal the sanctuarie be cleansed.<p> <A name="16"></a><p class="hdg">Gabriel Interprets Daniel’s Vision<p><span class="reftext"><a href="/daniel/8-15.htm"><b>15</b></a></span>Now when I Daniel had seene this vision, and sought for the vnderstanding of it: beholde, there stoode before me like the similitude of a man. <A name="17"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/daniel/8-16.htm"><b>16</b></a></span>And I heard a mans voyce betweene Ulai, which cryed, and saide: O Gabriel make this man vnderstande the vision. <A name="18"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/daniel/8-17.htm"><b>17</b></a></span>So he came and stoode by me: but I was afraide at his comming, and fell downe vpo my face: Then said he vnto me, Understand O thou sonne of man: for at the time of the ende this vision <FI>shalbe.<Fi><p> <A name="19"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/daniel/8-18.htm"><b>18</b></a></span>Now as he was speaking vnto me, I fell in a slumber vpon my face to the grounde: but he touched me, and set me vp in my place. <A name="20"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/daniel/8-19.htm"><b>19</b></a></span>And he saide, Beholde, I wyll shewe thee what shalbe in the last wrath: for in the time appoynted it shalbe fulfilled.<p> <A name="21"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/daniel/8-20.htm"><b>20</b></a></span>The ramme which thou sawest hauing two hornes, is the king of the Medes and Perses,<p> <A

come to the full, a king of a fierce countenaunce, and vnderstanding harde sentences, shall stand vp.<p> <A name="25"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/daniel/8-24.htm"><b>24</b></a></span>His power shalbe mightie, but not in his strength, & he shall destroy wonderfully, he shall prosper & practise, and destroy the mightie and the holy people.<p> <A name="26"></a><span class="reftext"><a

many, & many one shalbe put to death in his wealthinesse: he shall stande vp against the prince of princes, but he shalbe destroyed without hande.<p> <A name="27"></a><span class="reftext"><a
