24 As for the ten horns,
    from this kingdom ten kings shall rise,
    and another shall arise after them.
This last king will be different from the earlier ones,
    and he will overcome three kings.
25 He will insult the Most High
    and oppress the holy ones of the Most High
in his stubborn determination
    to change the sacred seasons and the law.
They shall be given into his power
    for a time, two times, and half a time.
26 Finally the court will sit in judgment,
    and his power will be taken away,
    with his sovereignty completely destroyed forever.
