Daniel 2:43-45

International Standard Version

⁴³ Just as you saw iron mixed with clay, so they will mix themselves with human offspring.^[a] Furthermore,^[b] they won’t remain together, just as iron doesn’t mix with clay.

⁴⁴ “During the reigns of those kings, the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that will never be destroyed, nor its sovereignty^[c] left in the hands of another people. It will shatter and crush all of these kingdoms, and it will stand forever. ⁴⁵ Now, just as you saw that the stone was cut out of the mountain without human hands—and that it crushed the iron, bronze, clay, silver, and gold to pieces—so also the great God has revealed to the king what will take place after this. Your dream will come true, and its meaning will prove trustworthy.”
