²³ “He told me, ‘The fourth animal will be a fourth nation on the earth. It will be different from all the other nations. It will destroy the whole earth. And it will crush under foot whatever is left. ²⁴ The ten horns are ten kings who will come from this nation. And another will come after them who will be different from the ones before. He will put three kings under his power. ²⁵ He will speak against the Most High and make it hard for His holy ones. And he will try to make changes in times and in law. The holy ones will be given into his hand for a time, times, and half a time (three and a half years).
