In these verses, the angel explains to Daniel the symbolic meaning of the things he saw in his vision. The animals and horns actually represented human rulers or kingdoms. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/writing-symlanguage]])

# As for the horn that was broken ... four others arose
|
|
|
|
"Where the large horn was broken off, four others arose"
|
|
|
|
# four kingdoms will arise from his nation
|
|
|
|
The four horns represent the four new kingdoms. This can be made explicit. Alternate translation: "they represent the four kingdoms into which the kingdom of the first king will be divided" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-explicit]])

|
# but not with his great power
|
|
|
|
"but they will not have as much power as the king represented by the large horn"
