Nebuchadnezzar Praises God

34 And (A)at the end of the [a]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 (B)who lives forever:

For His dominion is (C)an everlasting dominion,
And His kingdom is from generation to generation.
35 (D)All the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing;
(E)He does according to His will in the army of heaven
And among the inhabitants of the earth.
(F)No one can restrain His hand
Or say to Him, (G)“What have You done?”

36 At the same time my reason returned to me, (H)and for the glory of my kingdom, my honor and splendor returned to me. My counselors and nobles resorted to me, I was (I)restored to my kingdom, and excellent majesty was (J)added to me. 37 Now I, Nebuchadnezzar, (K)praise and extol and honor the King of heaven, (L)all of whose works are truth, and His ways justice. (M)And those who walk in pride He is able to put down.
