30“The king answered and said, ‘Is this not Babylon the agreat, which I myself have built as a royal house by the strength of my power and for the glory of my majesty?’

31“While the word was in the king’s mouth, a voice 1came from heaven, saying, ‘King Nebuchadnezzar, to you it is said: the kingdom has been removed from you,

32and ayou will be driven away from mankind, and your place of habitation will be with the beasts of the field. You will be given grass to eat like cattle, and bseven 1periods of time will pass over you until you know that the cMost High is the powerful ruler over the kingdom of mankind and gives it to whomever He wishes.’

33“Immediately the word concerning Nebuchadnezzar was accomplished; and he was adriven away from mankind and began eating grass like cattle, and his body was drenched with the dew of heaven until his hair had grown like eagles’ feathers and his nails like birds’ claws.

34“But at the end of those days, I, Nebuchadnezzar, lifted up my eyes toward heaven, and my knowledge returned to me, and I blessed the aMost High and praised and honored bHim who lives forever;

For His 1dominion is an ceverlasting 2dominion,

And His kingdom endures from generation to generation.
