Daniel 4:20-22
Lexham English Bible
20 The tree that you saw, which grew and became strong and its height reached to heaven[a] and it was visible to the end of the whole earth,[b] 21 and its foliage was beautiful and its fruit abundant, and so there was provision for all in it, and the animals[c] of the field lived under it and in its branches nest the birds of heaven,[d] 22 —it is you, O king, who have grown great and you have grown strong, and so your greatness has increased and it has reached to heaven[e] and your sovereignty to the end of the earth.
