8 But at last Daniel came in before me, whose name was Belteshazzar, according to the name of my god, and in whom is the spirit of the holy gods. And I told the dream before him, saying,
9 O Belteshazzar, master of the horoscopists, because I now that the spirit of the holy gods is in you, and no secret troubles you, tell me the visions of my dream that I have seen, and its meaning.
10 As to the visions of my head on my bed, I was looking, and. behold, a tree was in the middle of the earth. And its height was great.
11 The tree became great and strong, and its height reached to the sky, and its appearance to the end of all the earth.
12 Its leaves were beautiful, and its fruit plentiful, and food for all was in it. The animals of the field sought shade under it, and the birds of the sky dwelt in its branches, and all flesh was fed from it.
13 I was looking in the visions of my head on my bed. And, behold, a watcher, even a holy one, came down from the heaven
14 He cried with might and said this: Cut down the tree and cut off its branches. Shake off its leaves and scatter its fruit. Let the animals flee from under it, and the birds leave its branches.
