Rejoicing in Heaven

19 After this I heard (A)what seemed to be the loud voice of a great multitude in heaven, crying out,

“Hallelujah!
(B)Salvation and glory and power belong to our God,
    for (C)his judgments are true and just;
for he has judged (D)the great prostitute
    who corrupted the earth with her immorality,
and (E)has avenged on her the blood of his servants.”

Once more they cried out,

“Hallelujah!
(F)The smoke from her goes up forever and ever.”

And (G)the twenty-four elders and the four living creatures fell down and worshiped God who was seated on the throne, saying, “Amen. Hallelujah!” And from the throne came a voice saying,

(H)“Praise our God,
    all you his servants,
(I)you who fear him,
    small and great.”

Then I heard what seemed to be (J)the voice of a great multitude, like (K)the roar of many waters and (L)like the sound of mighty peals of thunder, crying out,

“Hallelujah!

Threefold Hallelujah Over Babylon’s Fall

“Hallelujah!(B)
Salvation(C) and glory and power(D) belong to our God,
    for true and just are his judgments.(E)
He has condemned the great prostitute(F)
    who corrupted the earth by her adulteries.

And again they shouted:

“Hallelujah!(H)
The smoke from her goes up for ever and ever.”(I)

The twenty-four elders(J) and the four living creatures(K) fell down(L) and worshiped God, who was seated on the throne. And they cried:

  1. Romans 11:8 Deut. 29:4; Isaiah 29:10

30 and the king answered and said, (A)“Is not this great Babylon, which I have built by (B)my mighty power as a royal residence and for (C)the glory of my majesty?” 31 (D)While the words were still in the king's mouth, there fell a voice from heaven, “O King Nebuchadnezzar, to you it is spoken: The kingdom has departed from you, 32 (E)and you shall be driven from among men, and your dwelling shall be with the beasts of the field. And you shall be made to eat grass like an ox, and seven periods of time shall pass over you, (F)until you know that the Most High rules the kingdom of men and gives it to whom he will.” 33 Immediately the word was fulfilled against Nebuchadnezzar. (G)He was driven from among men and ate grass like an ox, and his body was wet with the dew of heaven till his hair grew as long as eagles' feathers, and his nails were like birds' claws.

Nebuchadnezzar Restored

34 (H)At the end of the days I, Nebuchadnezzar, lifted my eyes to heaven, and (I)my reason returned to me, and I blessed the Most High, and praised and honored (J)him who lives forever,

(K)for his dominion is an everlasting dominion,
    and (L)his kingdom endures from generation to generation;
35 (M)all the inhabitants of the earth are accounted as nothing,
    and (N)he does according to his will among the host of heaven
    and among the inhabitants of the earth;
(O)and none can stay his hand
    or (P)say to him, “What have you done?”

36 At the same time (Q)my reason returned to me, and for (R)the glory of my kingdom, (S)my majesty and splendor returned to me. (T)My counselors and (U)my lords sought me, and I was established in my kingdom, and still more greatness was (V)added to me. 37 Now I, Nebuchadnezzar, (W)praise and extol and honor the (X)King of heaven, (Y)for all his works are right and his ways are just; and (Z)those who walk in pride he is able to humble.

30 he said, “Is not this the great Babylon I have built as the royal residence, by my mighty power and for the glory(A) of my majesty?”(B)

31 Even as the words were on his lips, a voice came from heaven, “This is what is decreed for you, King Nebuchadnezzar: Your royal authority has been taken from you.(C) 32 You will be driven away from people and will live with the wild animals; you will eat grass like the ox. Seven times will pass by for you until you acknowledge that the Most High is sovereign over all kingdoms on earth and gives them to anyone he wishes.”(D)

33 Immediately what had been said about Nebuchadnezzar was fulfilled. He was driven away from people and ate grass like the ox. His body was drenched(E) with the dew of heaven until his hair grew like the feathers of an eagle and his nails like the claws of a bird.(F)

34 At the end of that time, I, Nebuchadnezzar, raised my eyes toward heaven, and my sanity(G) was restored. Then I praised the Most High; I honored and glorified him who lives forever.(H)

His dominion is an eternal dominion;
    his kingdom(I) endures from generation to generation.(J)
35 All the peoples of the earth
    are regarded as nothing.(K)
He does as he pleases(L)
    with the powers of heaven
    and the peoples of the earth.
No one can hold back(M) his hand(N)
    or say to him: “What have you done?”(O)

36 At the same time that my sanity was restored, my honor and splendor were returned to me for the glory of my kingdom.(P) 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(Q) and glorify(R) the King of heaven, because everything he does is right and all his ways are just.(S) And those who walk in pride(T) he is able to humble.(U)
