13 (A) As I continued to watch the vision that night,

I saw what looked like
    a son of man[a]
coming with the clouds of heaven,
and he was presented
    to the Eternal God.[b]
14 (B) He was crowned king
    and given power and glory,
so that all people
of every nation and race
    would serve him.
He will rule forever,
and his kingdom is eternal,
    never to be destroyed.
