5. I saw a second animal. It looked like a bear. It was raised on one side and had three ribs in its mouth between its teeth. It was told, “Get up, and eat as much meat as you want.”
6. After this, I saw another animal. It looked like a leopard. On its back it had four wings, like the wings of a bird. The animal also had four heads. It was given power to rule.
7. After this, I saw a fourth animal in my vision during the night. It was terrifying, dreadful, extraordinarily strong, and had large iron teeth. It devoured and crushed its victims and trampled whatever was left. It acted differently from all the other animals that I had seen before. It had ten horns.
8. While I was thinking about the horns, another horn, a little horn, came up among them. It uprooted three of the other horns. This horn had eyes like human eyes and a mouth that spoke impressive things.
9. I watched until thrones were set upand the Ancient One, who has lived for endless years, sat down.His clothes were as white as snowand the hair on his head was like pure wool.His throne was fiery flames,and its wheels were burning fire.
10. A river of fire flowed.It came from him.Thousands and thousands served him.Ten thousand times ten thousand were stationed in front of him.The court convened,and the books were opened.
11. I continued to watch because of the impressive words that the horn was speaking. I watched until the animal was killed. Its body was destroyed and put into a raging fire.
