The Ancient of Days Reigns
9 “As I looked,
xthrones were placed,
and the Ancient of Days took his seat;
yhis clothing was white as snow,
and zthe hair of his head like pure wool;
his throne was fiery flames;
its wheels were burning fire.
10 aA stream of fire issued
and came out from before him;
ba thousand thousands served him,
and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him;
cthe court sat in judgment,
and dthe books were opened.
The Son of Man Is Given Dominion
13 “I saw in the night visions,
and behold, fwith the clouds of heaven
there came one like a gson of man,
and he came to the Ancient of Days
and was presented before him.
14 hAnd to him was given dominion
and glory and a kingdom,
that all peoples, nations, and languages
should serve him;
ihis dominion is an everlasting dominion,
which shall not pass away,
and jhis kingdom one
that shall not be destroyed.
