In context
13 In my vision in the night I continued to watch, and I saw One like the Son of Man coming with the clouds of heaven. He approached the Ancient of Days and was led into His presence.
14 And He was given dominion, glory, and kingship, that the people of every nation and language should serve Him. His dominion is an everlasting dominion that will not pass away, and His kingdom is one that will never be destroyed.
15 I, Daniel, was grieved in my spirit, and the visions in my mind alarmed me.
16 I approached one of those who were standing there, and I asked him the true meaning of all this. So he told me the interpretation of these things:
17 ‘These four great beasts are four kings who will arise from the earth.
18 But the saints of the Most High will receive the kingdom and possess it forever—yes, forever and ever.’
19 Then I wanted to know the true meaning of the fourth beast, which was different from all the others—extremely terrifying—devouring and crushing with iron teeth and bronze claws, then trampling underfoot whatever was left.
