“ Your Majesty looked, and there before you stood a large statue— an enormous, dazzling statue, awesome in appearance.

“ King Nebuchadnezzar, you looked up and saw a large statue standing in front of you. It was huge. It shone brightly. And it terrified you.

“ You saw, O king, and behold, a great image. This image, mighty and of exceeding brightness, stood before you, and its appearance was frightening.

“ In your vision, Your Majesty, you saw standing before you a huge, shining statue of a man. It was a frightening sight.

“ Your Majesty, as you were watching, suddenly a colossal statue appeared. That statue, tall and dazzling, was standing in front of you, and its appearance was terrifying.

“ You, O king, were watching and behold, there was a single great statue; that statue, which was large and of extraordinary radiance, was standing in front of you, and its appearance was awesome.

“ You, O king, were watching; and behold, a great image! This great image, whose splendor was excellent, stood before you; and its form was awesome.

他威武可畏，判斷和勢力都任意發出。

我必因邪惡刑罰世界，因罪孽刑罰惡人，使驕傲人的狂妄止息，制伏強暴人的狂傲。

魔鬼又帶他上了一座最高的山，將世上的萬國與萬國的榮華都指給他看，

所以，剛強的民必榮耀你；強暴之國的城必敬畏你。因為當強暴人催逼人的時候，如同暴風直吹牆壁，你就作貧窮人的保障，作困乏人急難中的保障，作躲暴風之處，作避炎熱的陰涼。你要壓制外邦人的喧嘩，好像乾燥地的熱氣下落；禁止強暴人的凱歌，好像熱氣被雲影消化。

有四個大獸從海中上來，形狀各有不同：頭一個像獅子，有鷹的翅膀；我正觀看的時候，獸的翅膀被拔去，獸從地上得立起來，用兩腳站立，像人一樣，又得了人心。又有一獸如熊，就是第二獸，旁跨而坐，口齒內啣着三根肋骨。有吩咐這獸的說：「起來吞吃多肉。」此後我觀看，又有一獸如豹，背上有鳥的四個翅膀；這獸有四個頭，又得了權柄。其後我在夜間的異象中觀看，見第四獸甚是可怕，極其強壯，大有力量，有大鐵牙，吞吃嚼碎，所剩下的用腳踐踏。這獸與前三獸大不相同，頭有十角。我正觀看這些角，見其中又長起一個小角；先前的角中有三角在這角前，連根被牠拔出來。這角有眼，像人的眼，有口說誇大的話。我觀看，見有寶座設立，上頭坐着亙古常在者。他的衣服潔白如雪，頭髮如純淨的羊毛。寶座乃火焰，其輪乃烈火。從他面前有火，像河發出；事奉他的有千千，在他面前侍立的有萬萬；他坐着要行審判，案卷都展開了。那時我觀看，見那獸因小角說誇大話的聲音被殺，身體損壞，扔在火中焚燒。其餘的獸，權柄都被奪去，生命卻仍存留，直到所定的時候和日期。我在夜間的異象中觀看，見有一位像人子的，駕着天雲而來，被領到亙古常在者面前，得了權柄、榮耀、國度，使各方、各國、各族的人都事奉他。他的權柄是永遠的，不能廢去；他的國必不敗壞。至於我－但以理，我的靈在我裏面愁煩，我腦中的異象使我驚惶。我就近一位侍立者，問他這一切的真情。他就告訴我，將那事的講解給我說明：這四個大獸就是四王將要在世上興起。

我必使外邦人，就是列國中的強暴人臨到你這裏；他們必拔刀砍壞你用智慧得來的美物，褻瀆你的榮光。

魔鬼又領他上了高山，霎時間把天下的萬國都指給他看，
