Until the Ancient of days came, and judgment was given to the saints of the most High; and the time came that the saints possessed the kingdom.
Until the Ancient One showed up and made things right for God's people, and finally, it was time for them to inherit the kingdom they'd been promised.
Justice is coming, and God's people will get what's theirs.
