* It is thou , O king , that art grown r @ and become strong t @: for thy greatness is grown r @, and reacheth m @ unto heaven , and thy dominion to the end of the earth . * And whereas the king saw a watcher and an holy one coming down n @ from heaven , and saying , Hew # the tree down , and destroy it ; yet leave sh @ the stump of the roots thereof in the earth , even with a band of iron and brass , in the tender grass of the field ; and let it be wet ts @ with the dew of heaven , and let his portion be with the beasts of the field , till seven times pass over him ; * This is the interpretation , O king , and this is the decree of the most High , which is come m @ upon my lord the king : * That they shall drive t @ thee from men , and thy dwelling shall be with the beasts of the field , and they shall make thee to eat grass as oxen , and they shall wet ts @ thee with the dew of heaven , and seven times shall pass over thee , till thou know y @ that the most High ruleth in the kingdom of men , and giveth n @ it to whomsoever he will ts @. * And whereas they commanded to leave sh @ the stump of the tree roots ; thy kingdom shall be sure unto thee , after that thou shalt have known y @ that the heavens do rule . * Wherefore , O king , let my counsel be acceptable sh @ unto thee , and break off p @ thy sins by righteousness , and thine iniquities by shewing mercy to the poor ; if it may be a lengthening of thy tranquillity . * All this came m @ upon the king Nebuchadnezzar . * At the end of twelve t @reyn # months he walked in the palace of the kingdom of Babylon . * The king spake , and said , Is not this huw # great Babylon , that I have built b @ for the house of the kingdom by the might of my power , and for the honour of my majesty ? * While the word was in the kings mouth , there fell n @ a voice from heaven , saying , O king Nebuchadnezzar , to thee it is spoken ; The kingdom is departed from thee . * And they shall drive t @ thee from men , and thy dwelling shall be with the beasts of the field : they shall make thee to eat grass as oxen , and seven times shall pass over thee , until thou know y @ that the most High ruleth in the kingdom of men , and giveth n @ it to whomsoever he will ts @. * The same hour was the thing fulfilled upon Nebuchadnezzar : and he was driven t @ from men , and did eat grass as oxen , and his body was wet ts @ with the dew of heaven , till his hairs were grown r @ like eagles feathers , and his nails like birds claws . * And at the end of the days I Nebuchadnezzar lifted up n @ mine eyes unto heaven , and mine understanding returned unto me , and I blessed b @ the most High , and I praised sh @ and honoured him that liveth for ever , whose dominion is an everlasting dominion , and his kingdom is from generation to generation : * And all the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing : and he doeth according to his will ts @ in the army of heaven , and among the inhabitants of the earth : and none can stay m @ his hand , or say unto him , What doest thou ? * At the same time my reason returned unto me ; and for the glory of my kingdom , mine honour and brightness returned unto me ; and my counsellors and my lords sought unto me ; and I was established t @ in my kingdom , and excellent majesty was added y @ unto me . * Now I Nebuchadnezzar praise sh @ and extol and honour the King of heaven , all whose works are truth , and his ways judgment : and those that walk in pride he is able y @ to abase sh @.
