Daniel 5:18-24
New King James Version
18 O king, (A)the Most High God gave Nebuchadnezzar your [a]father a kingdom and majesty, glory and honor. 19 And because of the majesty that He gave him, (B)all peoples, nations, and languages trembled and feared before him. Whomever he wished, he (C)executed; whomever he wished, he kept alive; whomever he wished, he set up; and whomever he wished, he put down. 20 (D)But when his heart was lifted up, and his spirit was hardened in pride, he was deposed from his kingly throne, and they took his glory from him. 21 Then he was (E)driven from the sons of men, his heart was made like the beasts, and his dwelling was with the wild donkeys. They fed him with grass like oxen, and his body was wet with the dew of heaven, (F)till he [b]knew that the Most High God rules in the kingdom of men, and appoints over it whomever He chooses.
22 “But you his son, Belshazzar, (G)have not humbled your heart, although you knew all this. 23 (H)And you have [c]lifted yourself up against the Lord of heaven. They have brought the (I)vessels of [d]His house before you, and you and your lords, your wives and your concubines, have drunk wine from them. And you have praised the gods of silver and gold, bronze and iron, wood and stone, (J)which do not see or hear or know; and the God who holds your breath in His hand (K)and owns all your ways, you have not glorified. 24 Then the [e]fingers of the hand were sent from Him, and this writing was written.

18 “Your Majesty, the Most High God gave your father Nebuchadnezzar(A) sovereignty and greatness and glory and splendor.(B) 19 Because of the high position he gave him, all the nations and peoples of every language dreaded and feared him. Those the king wanted to put to death, he put to death;(C) those he wanted to spare, he spared; those he wanted to promote, he promoted; and those he wanted to humble, he humbled.(D) 20 But when his heart became arrogant and hardened with pride,(E) he was deposed from his royal throne(F) and stripped(G) of his glory.(H) 21 He was driven away from people and given the mind of an animal; he lived with the wild donkeys and ate grass like the ox; and his body was drenched with the dew of heaven, until he acknowledged that the Most High God is sovereign(I) over all kingdoms on earth and sets over them anyone he wishes.(J)
22 “But you, Belshazzar, his son,[a] have not humbled(K) yourself, though you knew all this. 23 Instead, you have set yourself up against(L) the Lord of heaven. You had the goblets from his temple brought to you, and you and your nobles, your wives(M) and your concubines drank wine from them. You praised the gods of silver and gold, of bronze, iron, wood and stone, which cannot see or hear or understand.(N) But you did not honor the God who holds in his hand your life(O) and all your ways.(P) 24 Therefore he sent the hand that wrote the inscription.

Daniel 4:30-37
New King James Version
30 The king (A)spoke, saying, “Is not this great Babylon, that I have built for a royal dwelling by my mighty power and for the honor of my majesty?”
31 (B)While the word was still in the king’s mouth, (C)a voice fell from heaven: “King Nebuchadnezzar, to you it is spoken: the kingdom has departed from you! 32 And (D)they shall drive you from men, and your dwelling shall be with the beasts of the field. They shall make you eat grass like oxen; and seven [a]times shall pass over you, until you know that the Most High rules in the kingdom of men, and gives it to whomever He chooses.”
33 That very hour the word was fulfilled concerning Nebuchadnezzar; he was driven from men and ate grass like oxen; his body was wet with the dew of heaven till his hair had grown like eagles’ feathers and his nails like birds’ claws.
Nebuchadnezzar Praises God
34 And (E)at the end of the [b]time I, Nebuchadnezzar, lifted my eyes to heaven, and my understanding returned to me; and I blessed the Most High and praised and honored Him (F)who lives forever:
For His dominion is (G)an everlasting dominion,
And His kingdom is from generation to generation.
35 (H)All the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing;
(I)He does according to His will in the army of heaven
And among the inhabitants of the earth.
(J)No one can restrain His hand
Or say to Him, (K)“What have You done?”
36 At the same time my reason returned to me, (L)and for the glory of my kingdom, my honor and splendor returned to me. My counselors and nobles resorted to me, I was (M)restored to my kingdom, and excellent majesty was (N)added to me. 37 Now I, Nebuchadnezzar, (O)praise and extol and honor the King of heaven, (P)all of whose works are truth, and His ways justice. (Q)And those who walk in pride He is able to put down.

30 he said, “Is not this the great Babylon I have built as the royal residence, by my mighty power and for the glory(A) of my majesty?”(B)
31 Even as the words were on his lips, a voice came from heaven, “This is what is decreed for you, King Nebuchadnezzar: Your royal authority has been taken from you.(C) 32 You will be driven away from people and will live with the wild animals; you will eat grass like the ox. Seven times will pass by for you until you acknowledge that the Most High is sovereign over all kingdoms on earth and gives them to anyone he wishes.”(D)
33 Immediately what had been said about Nebuchadnezzar was fulfilled. He was driven away from people and ate grass like the ox. His body was drenched(E) with the dew of heaven until his hair grew like the feathers of an eagle and his nails like the claws of a bird.(F)
34 At the end of that time, I, Nebuchadnezzar, raised my eyes toward heaven, and my sanity(G) was restored. Then I praised the Most High; I honored and glorified him who lives forever.(H)
His dominion is an eternal dominion;
his kingdom(I) endures from generation to generation.(J)
35 All the peoples of the earth
are regarded as nothing.(K)
He does as he pleases(L)
with the powers of heaven
and the peoples of the earth.
No one can hold back(M) his hand(N)
or say to him: “What have you done?”(O)
36 At the same time that my sanity was restored, my honor and splendor were returned to me for the glory of my kingdom.(P) My advisers and nobles sought me out, and I was restored to my throne and became even greater than before. 37 Now I, Nebuchadnezzar, praise and exalt(Q) and glorify(R) the King of heaven, because everything he does is right and all his ways are just.(S) And those who walk in pride(T) he is able to humble.(U)
