41And as you saw the feet and toes, partly of potter’s clay and partly of iron, the kingdom will be divided; yet some of the firmness of iron will be in it, just as you saw the iron mixed with clay mud.

42And as the toes of the feet were partly iron and partly clay, so part of the kingdom will be strong, and part of it will be brittle.

43As you saw the iron mixed with clay, they will mix themselves with the seed of man, but they will not hold together, this one with that one, just as iron does not mix with pottery.
