Daniel 8:1-5 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

1. After this first vision, I, Daniel, had another, in the third year of the reign of King Belshazzar.

2. In my vision I saw myself in the fortress of Susa in the province of Elam; I was beside the river Ulai.

3. I looked up and saw standing by the river a ram with two great horns, the one larger and newer than the other.

4. I saw the ram butting toward the west, north, and south. No beast could withstand it or be rescued from its power; it did what it pleased and grew powerful.

5. As I was reflecting, a he-goat with a prominent horn on its forehead suddenly came from the west across the whole earth without touching the ground.
