Daniel 8:5 in Context — Daniel 8

3 Je levai les yeux, je regardai, et voici, un bélier se tenait devant le fleuve, et il avait des cornes; ces cornes étaient hautes, mais l’une était plus haute que l’autre, et elle s’éleva la dernière.

4 Je vis le bélier qui frappait de ses cornes à l’occident, au septentrion et au midi; aucun animal ne pouvait lui résister, et il n’y avait personne pour délivrer ses victimes; il faisait ce qu’il voulait, et il devint puissant.

5 Comme je regardais attentivement, voici, un bouc venait de l’occident, et parcourait toute la terre à sa surface, sans la toucher; ce bouc avait une grande corne entre les yeux.

6 Il arriva jusqu’au bélier qui avait des cornes, et que j’avais vu se tenant devant le fleuve, et il courut sur lui dans toute sa fureur.

7 Je le vis qui s’approchait du bélier et s’irritait contre lui; il frappa le bélier et lui brisa les deux cornes, sans que le bélier eût la force de lui résister; il le jeta par terre et le foula, et il n’y eut personne pour délivrer le bélier.
