    4 I saw the ram charging to the west, north, and south. No animal could stand against it, and no one could rescue from its power. It did as it pleased and became great.

    5 As I was pondering this, suddenly a male goat came from the west, crossing the entire earth without touching the ground, and it had a notable horn between its eyes.

    6 It came toward the two-horned ram I had seen standing beside the canal and charged at it in great rage.

    7 I saw it attack the ram furiously, striking it and breaking its two horns. The ram was powerless to stand against it; the goat knocked it to the ground and trampled on it, and no one could rescue the ram from its power.

    8 The male goat became very great, but at the height of its power, its large horn was broken off, and in its place, four prominent horns grew toward the four winds of heaven.

    9 Out of one of them came a little horn, which grew exceedingly great toward the south, the east, and the Beautiful Land.
