28. For the sword of the one shall devour him that was with him: but he also shall fall by the sword in the last days.
29. And whereas you saw two under wings passing over to the head that is on the right side,
30. this is the interpretation: These are they, whom the Most High has kept to his end: this is the small kingdom and full of trouble, as you saw.
31. And the lion, whom you saw rising up out of the wood, and roaring, and speaking to the eagle, and rebuking her for her unrighteousness, and all her words which you have heard;
32. this is the anointed one, whom the Most High has kept to the end [of days, who shall spring up out of the seed of David, and he shall come and speak] to them and reprove them for their wickedness and unrighteousness, and shall heap up before them their contemptuous dealings.
33. For at the first he shall set them alive in his judgement, and when he has reproved them, he shall destroy them.
34. For the rest of my people shall he deliver with mercy, those that have been preserved throughout my borders, and he shall make them joyful until the coming of the end, even the day of judgment, whereof I have spoken to you from the beginning.
35. This is the dream that you saw, and this is the interpretation thereof:
36. and you only have been meet to know the secret of the Most High.
37. Therefore write all these things that you have seen in a book, and put them in a secret place:
38. and you shall teach them to the wise of your people, whose hearts you know are able to comprehend and keep these secrets.
39. But wait you here yourself yet seven days more, that there may be showed to you whatever it pleases the Most High to show you. And he departed from me.
40. And it came to pass, when all the people saw that the seven days were past, and I had not come again into the city, they gathered them all together, from the least to the greatest, and came to me, and spoke to me, saying,
41. What have we offended you? and what evil have we done against you, that you have utterly forsaken us, and sit in this place?
