Daniel
Daniel 7:13–14
13In my vision in the night I continued to watch,
and I saw One like the Son of Manb
coming with the clouds of heaven.c
He approached the Ancient of Days
and was led into His presence.
14And 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.
