7:9 “While I was watching,
thrones were set up,
and the Ancient of Days 1 took his seat.
His attire was white like snow;
the hair of his head was like lamb’s 2 wool.
His throne was ablaze with fire
and its wheels were all aflame. 3
7:10 A river of fire was streaming forth
and proceeding from his presence.
Many thousands were ministering to him;
Many tens of thousands stood ready to serve him. 4
The court convened 5
and the books were opened.
7:14 To him was given ruling authority, honor, and sovereignty.
All peoples, nations, and language groups were serving 6 him.
His authority is eternal and will not pass away. 7
His kingdom will not be destroyed. 8
