And some of the host (F)and some[a] of (G)the stars it threw down to the ground and (H)trampled on them. 11 (I)It became great, even as great as (J)the Prince of the host.

The Little Horn
9 And out of one of them came a rather (A)small horn which grew exceedingly great toward the south, toward the east, and toward the [a](B)Beautiful Land. 10 It grew up to the heavenly [b]lights, and some of the [c]lights, [d]that is, some of the (C)stars it threw down to the earth, and it (D)trampled them. 11 It even (E)exalted itself [e]to be equal with the [f]Commander of the army; and it removed the (F)regular sacrifice from Him, and the place of His sanctuary was overthrown.
