Daniel 7:2-4

International Standard Version

² Daniel said, “I observed the vision during the night. Look! The four winds of the skies were stirring up the Mediterranean^[a] Sea. ³ Four magnificent animals were rising from the sea, each different from the other. ⁴ The first resembled a lion, but it had eagles’ wings. I continued to watch until its wings were plucked off, it was lifted up off the ground, and it was forced to stand on two feet like a man. A human soul^[b] was imparted to it.
