Daniel 2:33-39 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

33. And the legs of iron, the feet part of iron and part of clay.

34. Thus thou sawest, till a stone was cut out of a mountain without hands: and it struck the statue upon the feet thereof that were of iron and of clay, and broke them in pieces.

35. Then was the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold broken to pieces together, and became like the chaff of a summer's thrashingfloor, and they were carried away by the wind: and there was no place found for them: but the stone that struck the statue, became a great mountain, and filled the whole earth.

36. This is the dream: we will also tell the interpretation thereof before thee, O king.

37. Thou art a king of kings: and the God of heaven hath given thee a kingdom, and strength, and power, and glory:

38. And all places wherein the children of men, and the beasts of the field do dwell: he hath also given the birds of the air into thy hand, and hath put all things under thy power: thou therefore art the head of gold.

39. And after thee shall rise up another kingdom, inferior to thee, of silver: and another third kingdom of brass, which shall rule over all the world.
