I saw [07200] the ram [0352] pushing [05055] westward [03220], and northward [06828], and southward [05045]; so that no beasts [02416] might stand [05975] before [06440] him, neither was there any that could deliver [05337] out of his hand [03027]; but he did [06213] according to his will [07522], and became great [01431].
And he came [0935] to the ram [0352] that had [01167] two horns [07161], which I had seen [07200] standing [05975] before [06440] the river [0180], and ran [07323] unto him in the fury [02534] of his power [03581].
And I saw [07200] him come [05060] close unto [0681] the ram [0352], and he was moved with choler [04843] against him, and smote [05221] the ram [0352], and brake [07665] his two [08147] horns [07161]: and there was no power [03581] in the ram [0352] to stand [05975] before [06440] him, but he cast him down [07993] to the ground [0776], and stamped [07429] upon him: and there was none that could deliver [05337] the ram [0352] out of his hand [03027].
