Daniel 4:17
New American Standard Bible 1995
17 “This sentence is by the decree of the angelic watchers
And the decision is a command of the holy ones,
In order that the living may (A)know
That the Most High is ruler over the realm of mankind,
And (B)bestows it on whom He wishes
And sets over it the (C)lowliest of men.”
