Daniel 4:34-37
New American Standard Bible
34 “But at the end of [a]that period, I, Nebuchadnezzar, raised my eyes toward heaven and my [b]reason returned to me, and I blessed the (A)Most High and praised and honored (B)Him who lives forever;
For His dominion is an (C)everlasting dominion,
And His kingdom endures from generation to generation.
35 (D)All the inhabitants of the earth are of no account,
But (E)He does according to His will among the army of heaven
And among the inhabitants of earth;
And (F)no one can [c]fend off His hand
Or say to Him, ‘(G)What have You done?’
36 At that time my [d](H)reason returned to me. And my majesty and (I)splendor were [e]restored to me for the honor of my kingdom, and my state counselors and my nobles began seeking me out; so I was reestablished in my [f]sovereignty, and surpassing (J)greatness was added to me. 37 Now I, Nebuchadnezzar, praise, exalt, and honor the King of (K)heaven, for (L)all His works are [g]true and His ways [h]just; and He is able to humble those who (M)walk in pride.”

Daniel 4:34-37
New International Version
34 At the end of that time, I, Nebuchadnezzar, raised my eyes toward heaven, and my sanity(A) was restored. Then I praised the Most High; I honored and glorified him who lives forever.(B)
His dominion is an eternal dominion;
his kingdom(C) endures from generation to generation.(D)
35 All the peoples of the earth
are regarded as nothing.(E)
He does as he pleases(F)
with the powers of heaven
and the peoples of the earth.
No one can hold back(G) his hand(H)
or say to him: “What have you done?”(I)
36 At the same time that my sanity was restored, my honor and splendor were returned to me for the glory of my kingdom.(J) 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(K) and glorify(L) the King of heaven, because everything he does is right and all his ways are just.(M) And those who walk in pride(N) he is able to humble.(O)
