By way of explanation, Daniel told Nebuchadnezzar: “Whereas you beheld iron mixed with moist clay, they will come to be mixed with the offspring of mankind; but they will not prove to be sticking together, this one to that one, just as iron is not mixing with molded clay.”
Kupitia maelezo, Danieli alimwambia Nebukadneza hivi: “Na kwa kuwa ulikiona chuma kimechanganyika na udongo wenye unyevunyevu, watachanganywa na uzao wa wanadamu; lakini hawatashikamana, huyu na yule, kama vile chuma kisivyochanganyika na udongo wa udongo.”
