The Son of Man Is Given Dominion

13 “I saw in the night visions,

and (A)behold, with the clouds of heaven
    there came one like a son of man,
and he came to the (B)Ancient of Days
    and was presented before him.
14 (C)And to him was given dominion
    and glory and a kingdom,
that all (D)peoples, nations, and languages
    should serve him;
(E)his dominion is an everlasting dominion,
    which shall not pass away,
and his kingdom one
    that shall not be destroyed.

Footnotes

  1. Daniel 7:13 The Aramaic phrase bar enash means human being. The phrase son of man is retained here because of its use in the New Testament as a title of Jesus, probably based largely on this verse.

For (A)the Son of Man is lord of the Sabbath.”
