Whom he would, he killed, and whom he would, he kept alive; whom he would, he raised up, and whom he would, he humbled. 20 But (G)when his heart was lifted up and his spirit was hardened so that he dealt proudly, (H)he was brought down from his kingly throne, and his glory was taken from him. 21 (I)He was driven from among the children of mankind, and his mind was made like that of a beast, and his dwelling was with the wild donkeys. He was fed grass like an ox, and his body was wet with the dew of heaven, (J)until he knew that the (K)Most High God rules the kingdom of mankind and sets over it whom he will. 22 And you his son,[a] (L)Belshazzar, (M)have not humbled your heart, though you knew all this, 23 but you have lifted up yourself against (N)the Lord of heaven.
