Daniel 8:9-12

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

⁹ Out of one of them came another^[a] horn, a little one, which grew exceedingly great toward the south, toward the east, and toward the beautiful land.^{(A) 10} It grew as high as the host of heaven. It threw down to earth some of the host and some of the stars and trampled on them.^{(B) 11} Even against the prince of the host it acted arrogantly; it took the regular burnt offering away from him and overthrew the place of his sanctuary.^{(C) 12} Because of wickedness, the host was given over to it together with the regular burnt offering;^[b] it cast truth to the ground and kept prospering in what it did.
