9
For thou hast judged me worthy to shew me the last times.
10
And he said unto me, This is the interpretation of the vision:
11
The eagle, whom thou sawest come up from the sea, is the kingdom which was seen in the
vision of thy brother Daniel.
12
But it was not expounded unto him, therefore now I declare it unto thee.
13
Behold, the days will come, that there shall rise up a kingdom upon earth, and it shall be
feared above all the kingdoms that were before it.
14
In the same shall twelve kings reign, one after another:
15
Whereof the second shall begin to reign, and shall have more time than any of the twelve.
16
And this do the twelve wings signify, which thou sawest.
17
As for the voice which thou heardest speak, and that thou sawest not to go out from the heads
but from the midst of the body thereof, this is the interpretation:
18
That after the time of that kingdom there shall arise great strivings, and it shall stand in peril
of failing: nevertheless it shall not then fall, but shall be restored again to his beginning.
19
And whereas thou sawest the eight small under feathers sticking to her wings, this is the
interpretation:
20
That in him there shall arise eight kings, whose times shall be but small, and their years swift.
21
And two of them shall perish, the middle time approaching: four shall be kept until their end
begin to approach: but two shall be kept unto the end.
22
And whereas thou sawest three heads resting, this is the interpretation:
23
In his last days shall the most High raise up three kingdoms, and renew many things therein,
and they shall have the dominion of the earth,
24
And of those that dwell therein, with much oppression, above all those that were before them:
therefore are they called the heads of the eagle.
25
For these are they that shall accomplish his wickedness, and that shall finish his last end.
26
And whereas thou sawest that the great head appeared no more, it signifieth that one of them
shall die upon his bed, and yet with pain.
27
For the two that remain shall be slain with the sword.
28
For the sword of the one shall devour the other: but at the last shall he fall through the sword
himself.
29
And whereas thou sawest two feathers under the wings passing over the head that is on the
right side;
30
It signifieth that these are they, whom the Highest hath kept unto their end: this is the small
kingdom and full of trouble, as thou sawest.
31
And the lion, whom thou sawest rising up out of the wood, and roaring, and speaking to the
eagle, and rebuking her for her unrighteousness with all the words which thou hast heard;
32
This is the anointed, which the Highest hath kept for them and for their wickedness unto the
end: he shall reprove them, and shall upbraid them with their cruelty.
