Dialogue with Trypho 31.3 · Sophia Scriptura

Summary: Dan 7:11–13.

Greek text · Archambault 1:134

Ἐθεώρουν τότε τὴν φωνὴν τῶν μεγάλων λόγων ὧν τὸ κέρας λαλεῖ, καὶ ἀπετυμπανίσθη τὸ θηρίον, καὶ ἀπώλετο τὸ σῶμα αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐδόθη εἰς καῦσιν πυρός· καὶ τὰ λοιπὰ θηρία μετεστάθη τῆς ἀρχῆς αὐτῶν, καὶ χρόνος ζωῆς τοῖς θηρίοις ἐδόθη ἕως καιροῦ καὶ χρόνου. Ἐθεώρουν ἐν ὁράματι τῆς νυκτός, καὶ ἰδοὺ μετὰ τῶν νεφελῶν τοῦ οὐρανοῦ ὡς υἱὸς ἀνθρώπου ἐρχόμενος· καὶ ἦλθεν ἕως τοῦ παλαιοῦ τῶν ἡμερῶν καὶ παρῆν ἐνώπιον αὐτοῦ, καὶ οἱ παρεστηκότες προσήγαγον αὐτόν.

English · Claude translation

“‘I beheld then the voice of the great words which the horn spoke, and the beast was beaten to death, and its body perished and was given to be burned with fire; and the other beasts were removed from their dominion, and a time of life was given to the beasts until a season and a time. I beheld in the vision of the night, and behold, with the clouds of heaven one coming like a son of man; and he came to the Ancient of Days and was present before him, and those who stood by brought him near.
