jub - Daniel:4:19-27

jub@Daniel:4:19 @ Then Daniel, whose name [was] Belteshazzar, was silent for almost one hour, and his thoughts troubled him. [Then] the king spoke and said, Belteshazzar, do not let the dream or its interpretation trouble thee. Belteshazzar answered and said, My lord, [let] the dream [be] to thine enemies, and its interpretation to those that wish thee evil.

jub@Daniel:4:20 @ The tree that thou didst see, which grew and made himself strong, whose height reached unto the heaven and the sight thereof to all the earth;

jub@Daniel:4:21 @ whose leaves [were] fair and his fruit abundant and in him [was] food for all, under whom the beasts of the field dwelt, and in whose branches the fowls of the heaven dwelt:

jub@Daniel:4:22 @ it [is] thou, O king, that grew and made thyself strong; for thy greatness has grown and has reached unto heaven, and thy dominion to the end of the earth.

jub@Daniel:4:23 @ And regarding that which the king saw, one who was a watchman and holy who came down from heaven and said, Hew the tree down and destroy it; yet leave the stump of its roots in the earth, and with a band of iron and of brass [let it remain bound] in the green grass of the field, and let it be wet with the dew of heaven, and [let] his portion [be] with the beasts of the field until seven times pass over him:

jub@Daniel:4:24 @ this [is] the interpretation, O king, and this [is] the decree of the most High, which is come upon my lord the king:

jub@Daniel:4:25 @ that they shall drive thee from among men, and thy dwelling shall be with the beasts of the field, and they shall feed thee with grass of the field as the oxen, and with the dew of heaven shalt thou be bathed, and seven times shall pass over thee, until thou shalt understand that the most High takes rule over the kingdom of men and that he shall give it to whoever he will.

jub@Daniel:4:26 @ And whereas they commanded to leave the stump of the tree roots in the earth; thy kingdom shall remain sure unto thee, that thou shalt understand that the rule [is] in the heavens.

jub@Daniel:4:27 @ Therefore, O king, approve my counsel and redeem thy sins with righteousness and thine iniquities with mercies unto the poor: behold the medicine for thy sin.
