“During the time of the kings \{of the fourth kingdom\}, the God of heaven will set up another kingdom. This kingdom will continue forever! It will never be destroyed!

But that kingdom itself will continue forever.
Some people have good, male animals that they could give as sacrifices. \{But they don’t give those good animals to me.\} Some people bring good animals to me. They promise to give those healthy animals to me. But then they secretly exchange those good animals and they give me sick animals. Bad things will happen to those people! I am the Great King. \{You should respect me!\} People all around the world respect me!” The Lord All-Powerful said those things!
