DAN 2:31 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.
DAN 2:32 This image's head was of fine gold, his breast and his arms of
silver, his belly and his thighs of brass,
DAN 2:33 His legs of iron, his feet part of iron and part of clay.
DAN 2:34 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.
