Daniel 8:9-15 World English Bible (WEB)

9. Out of one of them came out a little horn, which grew exceeding great, toward the south, and toward the east, and toward the glorious land.

10. It grew great, even to the army of the sky; and some of the army and of the stars it cast down to the ground, and trampled on them.

11. Yes, it magnified itself, even to the prince of the army; and it took away from him the continual burnt offering, and the place of his sanctuary was cast down.

12. The army was given over to it together with the continual burnt offering through disobedience; and it cast down truth to the ground, and it did its pleasure and prospered.

13. Then I heard a holy one speaking; and another holy one said to that certain one who spoke, How long shall be the vision about the continual burnt offering, and the disobedience that makes desolate, to give both the sanctuary and the army to be trodden under foot?

14. He said to me, To two thousand and three hundred evenings and mornings; then shall the sanctuary be cleansed.

15. When I, even I Daniel, had seen the vision, I sought to understand it; and behold, there stood before me as the appearance of a man.
