1. Ruling authority granted, removed, or enduring · dominant

   In Daniel 7:6 the APB renders that such authority “was given” to the beast; in Daniel 7:12 and Daniel 7:26 it is taken away or removed. In Daniel 7:14 and Daniel 7:27, the APB presents it as an enduring authority connected with a kingdom and the service or obedience of all peoples.

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB repeatedly presents the relevant clauses with “dominion,” especially where it is given, taken away, or everlasting; Daniel 4:31 instead says that “the kingdom has passed from you.” These renderings show the verse contexts rather than a fixed English equivalent for each token.
