Interpretation: Media-Persia, Greece, and the Little Horn

20

You saw a ram with two horns which are the kings of Media and Persia.

21

The shaggy male goat is the king of Greece, and the prominent horn between its eyes is the first king.

22

As for the horn that broke and the four which rose up in its place, four kingdoms will arise out of this nation, but not with the power the first king had.

23

In the latter part of their reign, when the evildoers have become as evil as possible, there will arise an arrogant king skilled in intrigue.

24

His power will be great, but not with the power the first king had. He will be amazingly destructive, he will succeed in whatever he does, and he will destroy the mighty and the holy ones.

25

He will succeed through craftiness and deceit, become swelled with pride, and destroy many people just when they feel the most secure. He will even challenge the prince of princes; but, without human intervention, he will be broken.

26

The vision of the evenings and mornings which has been told is true; but you are to keep the vision secret, because it is about days in the distant future."
