    31You, O king, saw, and behold a great image. This great image, whose brightness was excellent, stood before you; and its form was awesome.

    32This image's head was of fine gold, its chest and arms of silver, its belly and thighs of bronze,

    33Its legs of iron, its feet partly of iron and partly of clay.

    34You watched until a stone was cut out without hands, which struck the image on its feet of iron and clay, and broke them in pieces.

    35Then the iron, the clay, the bronze, the silver, and the gold were crushed together, and became like chaff from the summer threshing floors; and the wind carried them away, so that no trace of them was found: and the stone that struck the image became a great mountain and filled the whole earth.

    41And as you saw the feet and toes, partly of potter's clay and partly of iron, the kingdom shall be divided; but there shall be in it some of the strength of the iron, for as much as you saw the iron mixed with miry clay.

    42And as the toes of the feet were partly of iron and partly of clay, so the kingdom shall be partly strong and partly fragile.

    43And as you saw iron mixed with miry clay, they shall mingle themselves with the seed of men, but they shall not hold together, even as iron does not mix with clay.
