These Bible prophecies of earth's last wicked king are centuries old... Most of this artwork is public domain and decades old. If you believe you see the likeness of someone, you should consider if making him known to you is God's work! (Dan 7:7-8; Dan 7:20-27; Rev 13:3; Dan 8:25)

(14) And to him was given dominion and glory and a kingdom, that all peoples, nations, and languages should serve him; his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom one that shall not be destroyed.

Daniel 7:9-14 CEV Thrones were set up while I was watching, and the Eternal God took his place. His clothing and his hair were white as snow. His throne was a blazing fire with fiery wheels, (10) and flames were dashing out from all around him. Countless thousands were standing there to serve him. The time of judgment began, and the books were opened. (11) I watched closely to see what would happen to this smaller horn because of the arrogant things it was saying. Then before my very eyes, the fourth beast was killed and its body destroyed by fire. (12) The other three beasts had their authority taken from them, but they were allowed to live a while longer. (13) As I continued to watch the vision that night, I saw what looked like a son of man coming with the clouds of heaven, and he was presented to the Eternal God. (14) He was crowned king and given power and glory, so that all people of every nation and race would serve him. He will rule forever, and his kingdom is eternal, never to be destroyed.

Daniel 7:9-14 GNB While I was looking, thrones were put in place. One who had been living forever sat down on one of the thrones. His clothes were white as snow, and his hair was like pure wool. His throne, mounted on fiery wheels, was blazing with fire, (10) and a stream of fire was pouring out from it. There were many thousands of people there to serve him, and millions of people stood before him. The court began its session, and the books were opened. (11) While I was looking, I could still hear the little horn bragging and boasting. As I watched, the fourth beast was killed, and its body was thrown into the flames and destroyed. (12) The other beasts had their power taken away, but they were permitted to go on living for a limited time. (13) During this vision in the night, I saw what looked like a human being. He was approaching me, surrounded by clouds, and he went to the one who had been living forever and was presented to him.

Ten thousand times ten thousand were stationed in front of him. The court convened, and the books were opened. (11) I continued to watch because of the impressive words that the horn was speaking.

(13) In my visions during the night, I saw among the clouds in heaven someone like the Son of Man. He came to the Ancient One, who has lived for endless years, and was presented to him.
