Daniel 8:24-26
1599 Geneva Bible
24 And his power shall be mighty, but not [a]in his strength: and he shall destroy wonderfully, and shall prosper, and practice, and shall destroy the [b]mighty, and the holy people.
25 And through his [c]policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand, and he shall extol himself in his heart, and by [d]peace shall destroy many: he shall also stand up against the [e]prince of princes, but he shall be broken down [f]without hand.
26 And the vision of the [g]evening and the morning, which is declared, is true: therefore seal thou up the vision, for it shall be after many days.
