Daniel 4:9-18
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
9 “O Belteshazzar, chief of the magicians, I know that you are endowed with a spirit of the holy gods[a] and that no mystery is too difficult for you. Hear[b] the dream that I saw, and tell me its interpretation.(A)
10 [c]Upon my bed this is what I saw:
there was a tree at the center of the earth,
and its height was great.(B)
11 The tree grew great and strong,
its top reached to heaven,
and it was visible to the ends of the whole earth.
12 Its foliage was beautiful,
its fruit abundant,
and it provided food for all.
The animals of the field found shade under it,
the birds of the air nested in its branches,
and from it all living beings were fed.(C)
13 “I continued looking, in the visions of my head as I lay in bed, and there was a holy watcher coming down from heaven.(D) 14 He cried aloud and said:
‘Cut down the tree and chop off its branches;
strip off its foliage and scatter its fruit.
Let the animals flee from beneath it
and the birds from its branches.(E)
15 But leave its stump and roots in the ground,
with a band of iron and bronze,
in the tender grass of the field.
Let him be bathed with the dew of heaven,
and let his lot be with the animals
in the grass of the earth.
16 Let his mind be changed from that of a human,
and let the mind of an animal be given to him.
And let seven times pass over him.(F)
17 The sentence is rendered by decree of the watchers,
the decision is given by order of the holy ones,
in order that all who live may know
that the Most High is sovereign over the kingdom of mortals;
he gives it to whom he will
and sets over it the lowliest of human beings.’(G)
18 “This is the dream that I, King Nebuchadnezzar, saw. Now you, Belteshazzar, declare the interpretation, since all the wise men of my kingdom are unable to tell me the interpretation. You are able, however, for you are endowed with a spirit of the holy gods.”[d](H)

9 I said, “Belteshazzar, chief(A) of the magicians, I know that the spirit of the holy gods(B) is in you, and no mystery is too difficult for you. Here is my dream; interpret it for me. 10 These are the visions I saw while lying in bed:(C) I looked, and there before me stood a tree in the middle of the land. Its height was enormous.(D) 11 The tree grew large and strong and its top touched the sky; it was visible to the ends of the earth.(E) 12 Its leaves were beautiful, its fruit abundant, and on it was food for all. Under it the wild animals found shelter, and the birds lived in its branches;(F) from it every creature was fed.
13 “In the visions I saw while lying in bed,(G) I looked, and there before me was a holy one,(H) a messenger,[a] coming down from heaven. 14 He called in a loud voice: ‘Cut down the tree(I) and trim off its branches; strip off its leaves and scatter its fruit. Let the animals flee from under it and the birds from its branches.(J) 15 But let the stump and its roots, bound with iron and bronze, remain in the ground, in the grass of the field.
“‘Let him be drenched with the dew of heaven, and let him live with the animals among the plants of the earth. 16 Let his mind be changed from that of a man and let him be given the mind of an animal, till seven times[b] pass by for him.(K)
17 “‘The decision is announced by messengers, the holy ones declare the verdict, so that the living may know that the Most High(L) is sovereign(M) over all kingdoms on earth and gives them to anyone he wishes and sets over them the lowliest(N) of people.’
18 “This is the dream that I, King Nebuchadnezzar, had. Now, Belteshazzar, tell me what it means, for none of the wise men in my kingdom can interpret it for me.(O) But you can,(P) because the spirit of the holy gods(Q) is in you.”(R)
