Daniel 4:17
New King James Version
17 ‘This decision is by the decree of the watchers,
And the sentence by the word of the holy ones,
In order (A)that the living may know
(B)That the Most High rules in the kingdom of men,
(C)Gives it to whomever He will,
And sets over it the (D)lowest of men.’
Daniel 4:25
New King James Version
25 They shall (A)drive you from men, your dwelling shall be with the beasts of the field, and they shall make you (B)eat grass like oxen. They shall wet you with the dew of heaven, and seven [a]times shall pass over you, (C)till you know that the Most High rules in the kingdom of men, and (D)gives it to whomever He chooses.

Addressing the Areopagus
22 Then Paul stood in the midst of the [a]Areopagus and said, “Men of Athens, I perceive that in all things you are very religious; 23 for as I was passing through and considering the objects of your worship, I even found an altar with this inscription:
TO THE UNKNOWN GOD.
Therefore, the One whom you worship without knowing, Him I proclaim to you: 24 (A)God, who made the world and everything in it, since He is (B)Lord of heaven and earth, (C)does not dwell in temples made with hands. 25 Nor is He worshiped with men’s hands, as though He needed anything, since He (D)gives to all life, breath, and all things.
