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.

35“aAll the inhabitants of the earth are accounted as nothing,

But bHe does according to His will in the host of heaven

And among the inhabitants of earth;

And cno one can 1ward off His hand

Or say to Him, ‘dWhat have You done?’
