Chapter 11 _{42 For thou hast afflicted the meek, thou hast hurt the peaceable, thou hast loved liars, and destroyed the dwellings of them that brought forth fruit, and hast cast down the walls of such as did thee no harm.43 Therefore is thy wrongful dealing come up unto the Highest, and thy pride unto the Mighty.44 The Highest also hath looked upon the proud times, and, behold, they are ended, and his abominations are fulfilled.45 And therefore appear no more, thou eagle, nor thy horrible wings, nor thy wicked feathers nor thy malicious heads, nor thy hurtful claws, nor all thy vain body:46 That all the earth may be refreshed, and may return, being delivered from thy violence, and that she may hope for the judgment and mercy of him that made her.}

Chapter 12 _{1 And it came to pass, whiles the lion spake these words unto the eagle, I saw,2 And, behold, the head that remained and the four wings appeared no more, and the two went unto it and set themselves up to reign, and their kingdom was small, and fill of uproar.3 And I saw, and, behold, they appeared no more, and the whole body of the eagle was burnt so that the earth was in great fear: then awaked I out of the trouble and trance of my mind, and from great fear, and said unto my spirit,4 Lo, this hast thou done unto me, in that thou searchest out the ways of the Highest.5 Lo, yet am I weary in my mind, and very weak in my spirit; and little strength is there in me, for the great fear wherewith I was afflicted this night.6 Therefore will I now beseech the Highest, that he will comfort me unto the end.7 And I said, Lord that bearest rule, if I have found grace before thy sight, and if I am justified with thee before many others, and if my prayer indeed be come up before thy face;8 Comfort me then, and shew me thy servant the interpretation and plain difference of this fearful vision, that thou mayest perfectly comfort my soul.9 For thou hast judged me worthy to shew me the last times.10 And he said unto me, This is the interpretation of the vision:11 The eagle, whom thou sawest come up from the sea, is the kingdom which was seen in the vision of thy brother Daniel.12 But it was not expounded unto him, therefore now I declare it unto thee.13 Behold, the days will come, that there shall rise up a kingdom upon earth, and it shall be feared above all the kingdoms that were before it.14 In the same shall twelve kings reign, one after another:15 Whereof the second shall begin to reign, and shall have more time than any of the twelve.16 And this do the twelve wings signify, which thou sawest.17 As for the voice which thou heardest speak, and that thou sawest not to go out from the heads but from the midst of the body thereof, this is the interpretation:18 That after the time of that kingdom there shall arise great strivings, and it shall stand in peril of failing: nevertheless it shall not then fall, but shall be restored again to his beginning.}
