Daniel 8:24

And his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power: and he shall destroy wonderfully, and shall prosper, and practise, and shall destroy the mighty and the holy people.

KJV

et roborabitur fortitudo ejus, sed non in viribus suis : et supra quam credi potest, universa vastabit, et prosperabitur, et faciet. Et interficiet robustos, et populum sanctorum

Vulgate

καὶ στερεωθήσεται ἡ ἰσχὺς αὐτοῦ, καὶ οὐκ ἐν τῇ ἰσχύι αὐτοῦ, καὶ θαυμαστῶς φθερεῖ, καὶ εὐοδωθήσεται καὶ ποιήσει, καὶ φθερεῖ δυνάστας καὶ δῆμον ἁγίων.

LXX

And his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power; and he shall destroy wonderfully, and shall prosper and do his pleasure; and he shall destroy the mighty ones and the holy people.
