Daniel Provides the Dream to the King

• 31. Thou, O king, sawest, and behold a great image. This great image, whose brightness was excellent, stood before thee; and the form thereof was terrible.
  
  • Hebrew
    • אַנְתְּה מַלְכָּא חָזֵה הֲוַיְתָ וַאֲלוּ צְלֵם חַד שַׂגִּיא צַלְמָא דִּכֵּן רַב וְזִיוֵהּ יַתִּיר קָאֵם לְקָבְלָךְ וְרֵוֵהּ דְּחִֽיל׃
• 32. This image's head was of fine gold, his breast and his arms of silver, his belly and his thighs of brass,
  
  • Hebrew
    • הוּא צַלְמָא רֵאשֵׁהּ דִּֽי־דְהַב טָב חֲדוֹהִי וּדְרָעוֹהִי דִּי כְסַף מְעוֹהִי וְיַרְכָתֵהּ דִּי נְחָֽשׁ׃
• 33. His legs of iron, his feet part of iron and part of clay.
  
  • Hebrew
    • שָׁקוֹהִי דִּי פַרְזֶל רַגְלוֹהִי מנהון דִּי פַרְזֶל ומנהון דִּי חֲסַֽף׃
• 34. Thou sawest till that a stone was cut out without hands, which smote the image upon his feet that were of iron and clay, and brake them to pieces.
  
  • Hebrew
    • חָזֵה הֲוַיְתָ עַד דִּי הִתְגְּזֶרֶת אֶבֶן דִּי־לָא בִידַיִן וּמְחָת לְצַלְמָא עַל־רַגְלוֹהִי דִּי פַרְזְלָא וְחַסְפָּא וְהַדֵּקֶת הִמּֽוֹן׃
• 35. Then was the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold, broken to pieces together, and became like the chaff of the summer threshingfloors; and the wind carried them away, that no place was found for them: and the stone that smote the image became a great mountain, and filled the whole earth.
  
  • Hebrew
    • בֵּאדַיִן דָּקוּ כַחֲדָה פַּרְזְלָא חַסְפָּא נְחָשָׁא כַּסְפָּא וְדַהֲבָא וַהֲווֹ כְּעוּר מִן־אִדְּרֵי־קַיִט וּנְשָׂא הִמּוֹן רוּחָא וְכָל־אֲתַר לָא־הִשְׁתֲּכַח לְהוֹן וְאַבְנָא דִּֽי־מְחָת לְצַלְמָא הֲוָת לְטוּר רַב וּמְלָת כָּל־אַרְעָֽא׃

Interpretation-Babylon the 1^st Kingdom

• 36. This is the dream; and we will tell the interpretation thereof before the king.
  
  • Hebrew
    • דְּנָה חֶלְמָא וּפִשְׁרֵהּ נֵאמַר קֳדָם־מַלְכָּֽא׃
• 37. Thou, O king, art a king of kings: for the God of heaven hath given thee a kingdom, power, and strength, and glory.
  
  • Hebrew
    • אַנְתְּה מַלְכָּא מֶלֶךְ מַלְכַיָּא דִּי אֱלָהּ שְׁמַיָּא מַלְכוּתָא חִסְנָא וְתָקְפָּא וִֽיקָרָא יְהַב־לָֽךְ׃
• 38. And wheresoever the children of men dwell, the beasts of the field and the fowls of the heaven hath he given into thine hand, and hath made thee ruler over them all. Thou art this head of gold.
  
  • Hebrew
    • וּבְכָל־דִּי דארין בְּֽנֵי־אֲנָשָׁא חֵיוַת בָּרָא וְעוֹף־שְׁמַיָּא יְהַב בִּידָךְ וְהַשְׁלְטָךְ בְּכָלְּהוֹן אַנְתְּה־ הוּא רֵאשָׁה דִּי דַהֲבָֽא׃

Interpretation-Medo-Persia and Greece Kingdoms

• 39. And after thee shall arise another kingdom inferior to thee, and another third kingdom of brass, which shall bear rule over all the earth.
  
  • Hebrew
    • וּבָתְרָךְ תְּקוּם מַלְכוּ אָחֳרִי ארעא מִנָּךְ וּמַלְכוּ תליתיא אָחֳרִי דִּי נְחָשָׁא דִּי תִשְׁלַט בְּכָל־אַרְעָֽא׃

Interpretation-Rome is 4^th Kingdom

• 40. And the fourth kingdom shall be strong as iron: forasmuch as iron breaketh in pieces and subdueth all things: and as iron that breaketh all these, shall it break in pieces and bruise.
  
  • Hebrew
    • וּמַלְכוּ רביעיה תֶּהֱוֵא תַקִּיפָה כְּפַרְזְלָא כָּל־קֳבֵל דִּי פַרְזְלָא מְהַדֵּק וְחָשֵׁל כֹּלָּא וּֽכְפַרְזְלָא דִּֽי־מְרָעַע כָּל־אִלֵּין תַּדִּק וְתֵרֹֽעַ׃
• 41. And whereas thous sawest the feet and toes, part of potters' clay, and part of iron, the kingdom shall be divided; but there shall be in it of the strength of iron, forasmuch as thou sawest the iron mixed with miry clay.
  
  • Hebrew
    • וְדִֽי־חֲזַיְתָה רַגְלַיָּא וְאֶצְבְּעָתָא מנהון חֲסַף דִּֽי־פֶחָר ומנהון פַּרְזֶל מַלְכוּ פְלִיגָה תֶּהֱוֵה וּמִן־נִצְבְּתָא דִי פַרְזְלָא לֶֽהֱוֵא־בַהּ כָּל־קֳבֵל דִּי חֲזַיְתָה פַּרְזְלָא מְעָרַב בַּחֲסַף טִינָֽא׃
• 42. And as the toes of the feet were part of iron, and part of clay, so the kingdom shall be partly strong, and partly broken.
  
  • Hebrew
    • וְאֶצְבְּעָת רַגְלַיָּא מנהון פַּרְזֶל ומנהון חֲסַף מִן־קְצָת מַלְכוּתָא תֶּהֱוֵה תַקִּיפָה וּמִנַּהּ תֶּהֱוֵה תְבִירָֽה׃
• 43. And whereas thou sawest iron mixed with miry clay, they shall mingle themselves with the seed of men: but they shall not cleave one to another, even as iron is not mixed with clay.
  
  • Hebrew
    • די חֲזַיְתָ פַּרְזְלָא מְעָרַב בַּחֲסַף טִינָא מִתְעָרְבִין לֶהֱוֺן בִּזְרַע אֲנָשָׁא וְלָֽא־לֶהֱוֺן דָּבְקִין דְּנָה עִם־דְּנָה הֵֽא־כְדִי פַרְזְלָא לָא מִתְעָרַב עִם־חַסְפָּֽא׃

Interpretation-The Final Divine Kingdom

• 44.↓ And in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed: and the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever.
  
  • Hebrew
    • וּֽבְיוֹמֵיהוֹן דִּי מַלְכַיָּא אִנּוּן יְקִים אֱלָהּ שְׁמַיָּא מַלְכוּ דִּי לְעָלְמִין לָא תִתְחַבַּל וּמַלְכוּתָה לְעַם אָחֳרָן לָא תִשְׁתְּבִק תַּדִּק וְתָסֵיף כָּל־אִלֵּין מַלְכְוָתָא וְהִיא תְּקוּם לְעָלְמַיָּֽא׃
  • Notes:
    • ° This kingdom that God is going to set up on the earth is a real, physical earthly kingdom. This coming Kingdom is going to engage in a kinetic physical war with the final antichrist kingdom, and WIN! This will be an earthly Kingdom with a capital in Jerusalem. _MF-NCC
      
      ° All nations will be subservient to this Kingdom! This Kingdom will reinstitue some of the feasts and sacrifices, nations never had to keep feasts previously, that was only for Israel. _MF-NCC
      
      Zechariah 14:19—This shall be the punishment of Egypt, and the punishement of all nations that come not up to keep the feast of tabernacles.
      
      
• 45.↓ Forasmuch as thou sawest that the stone was cut out of the mountain without hands, and that it brake in pieces the iron, the brass, the clay, the silver, and the gold; the great God hath made known to the king what shall come to pass hereafter: and the dream is certain, and the interpretation thereof sure.
  
  • Hebrew
    • כָּל־קֳבֵל דִּֽי־חֲזַיְתָ דִּי מִטּוּרָא אִתְגְּזֶרֶת אֶבֶן דִּי־לָא בִידַיִן וְהַדֶּקֶת פַּרְזְלָא נְחָשָׁא חַסְפָּא כַּסְפָּא וְדַהֲבָא אֱלָהּ רַב הוֹדַע לְמַלְכָּא מָה דִּי לֶהֱוֵא אַחֲרֵי דְנָה וְיַצִּיב חֶלְמָא וּמְהֵימַן פִּשְׁרֵֽהּ׃ פ
  • Notes:
    • ° God compares the coming kingdom to those in the dream (Babylon, Persia, Greece, Rome, & then finally the Messianic Kingdom. Did Rome rule the world? It literally happened, and so will Jesus. _MF-NCC
