- "You, O king, were looking and behold, there was a single great statue; that statue, which was large and of extraordinary splendor, was standing in front of you, and its appearance was awesome.
- "The head of that statue was made of fine gold, its breast and its arms of silver, its belly and its thighs of bronze,
- its legs of iron, its feet partly of iron and partly of clay.
- "You continued looking until a stone was cut out without hands, and it struck the statue on its feet of iron and clay and crushed them.
- "Then the iron, the clay, the bronze, the silver and the gold were crushed all at the same time and became like chaff from the summer threshing floors; and the wind carried them away so that not a trace of them was found But the stone that struck the statue became a great mountain and filled the whole earth.
