Daniel 8 · Grade 2

A Ram and a Goat

Name Date

Read the Story

Daniel saw a vision by a river. He saw a ram with two horns. The ram pushed west, north, and south. No animal could stand before it.

Then a goat came from the west. It moved so fast it did not touch the ground! It beat the ram. Daniel did not understand. Then a voice said to Gabriel, make this man understand the vision. Gabriel came and helped Daniel.

Memory Verse

I heard a man’s voice between the banks of the Ulai, which called and said, “Gabriel, make this man understand the vision.”
