Daniel 7:9-12

English Standard Version

The Ancient of Days Reigns

⁹“As I looked,

^(A)thrones were placed,
    and the ^(B)Ancient of Days took his seat;
^(C)his clothing was white as snow,
    and ^(D)the hair of his head like pure wool;
his throne was fiery flames;
    ^(E)its wheels were burning fire.
¹⁰^(F)A stream of fire issued
    and came out from before him;
^(G)a thousand thousands ^(H)served him,
    ^(I)and ten thousand times ten thousand ^(J)stood before him;
the ^(K)court sat in judgment,
    and ^(L)the books were opened.

¹¹“I looked then because of the sound of ^(M)the great words that the horn was speaking. And as I looked, ^(N)the beast was killed, and its body destroyed ^(O)and given over to be burned with fire. ¹²As for the rest of the beasts, ^(P)their dominion was taken away, but their lives were prolonged for a season and a time.
