Daniel 4:30–34

³⁰“The king ¹reflected and said, ‘Is this not Babylon the ^agreat, which I myself have built as a royal ²residence by the might 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 declared: ²sovereignty has been removed from you,

³²and ^ayou will be driven away from mankind, and your dwelling place 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 recognize that the ^cMost High is ruler over the realm of mankind and bestows it on whomever He wishes.’

³³“Immediately the word concerning Nebuchadnezzar was fulfilled; 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 ¹that period, I, Nebuchadnezzar, raised my eyes toward heaven and my ²reason returned to me, and I blessed the ^aMost High and praised and honored ^bHim who lives forever;

For His dominion is an ^ceverlasting dominion,

And His kingdom endures from generation to generation.
