"You continued F65 looking until a stone R79 was cut out without R80 hands, and it struck the statue on its feet of iron and clay and crushed R81 them.
"Then the iron, the clay, the bronze, the silver and the gold were crushed all F66 at the same time and became like R82 chaff from the summer threshing floors; and the wind carried them away so that not R83 a trace of them was found. But the stone that struck the statue became a great mountain R84 and filled the whole earth.
"Then there will be a fourth R89 kingdom as strong as iron; inasmuch as iron crushes and shatters all things, so, like iron that breaks in pieces, it will crush and break all these in pieces.
"In that you saw the feet and toes, partly of potter's clay and partly of iron, it will be a divided kingdom; but it will have in it the toughness of iron, inasmuch as you saw the iron mixed with common F68 clay.
"And in that you saw the iron mixed with common F69 clay, they will combine with one another in F70 the seed of men; but they will not adhere to one another, even as iron does not combine with pottery.
"In the days of those kings the God R90 of heaven will set R91 up a kingdom R92 which will never be destroyed, and that kingdom will not be left F71 for another people; it will crush R93 and put an end to all these kingdoms, but it will itself endure forever.
