5As I was considering, behold, a male goat came from the west over the face of the whole earth, without touching the ground; and the goat had a conspicuous horn between its eyes.

6He came up to the ram with the two horns, which I had seen standing before the canal, and ran at him in the fury of his power.

7And I saw him come up to the ram, and he was enraged against him, and he struck the ram and broke its two horns. And there was no strength in the ram to stand before him; he threw him to the ground and trampled him, and there was no one to rescue the ram from his hand.

8And the male goat grew exceedingly great, but when he was strong, the great horn was broken, and in its place four conspicuous horns came up toward the four winds of heaven.
