Daniel 7:23-25
EasyEnglish Bible
23 The person that I had asked told me this: “The fourth animal shows that there will be a fourth kingdom on the earth. It will be different from all the other kingdoms. It will use its power to destroy the whole earth. It will stamp on everything and break them into pieces.
24 The ten horns show that ten kings will rule that kingdom. After them, another king will come to rule. He will be different from the other kings. He will get power over three kings. 25 He will insult the Most High God. He will be cruel to God's holy people. He will try to change the days for God's festivals and the laws about them. God's people will be under his power for three and a half times.[a]

After them another king will arise, different from the earlier ones; he will subdue three kings. 25 He will speak against the Most High(C) and oppress his holy people(D) and try to change the set times(E) and the laws.
