Daniel 8:10-12
Living Bible
10 He fought against the people of God and defeated some of their leaders.[a] 11 He even challenged the Commander[b] of the army of heaven by canceling the daily sacrifices offered to him and by defiling his Temple. 12 But the army of heaven was restrained from destroying him for this transgression. As a result, truth and righteousness perished, and evil triumphed and prospered.[c]
