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.
