Daniel 4

1Nebuchadnezzar^H5020 the king^H4430, unto all^H3606 the peoples^H5972, nations^H524, and languages^H3961, that dwell^H1753 in all^H3606 the earth^H772: Peace^H8001 be multiplied^H7680 unto you. 2It hath seemed^H6925 good^H8232 unto me to show^H2324 the signs^H852 and wonders^H8540 that the Most High^H5943 God^H426 hath wrought^H5648 toward^H5974 me. 3How^H4101 great^H7260 are his signs^H852! and how^H4101 mighty^H8624 are his wonders^H8540! his kingdom^H4437 is an everlasting^H5957 kingdom^H4437, and his dominion^H7985 is from^H5974 generation^H1859 to generation^H1859. 4I^H576, Nebuchadnezzar^H5020, was^H1934 at rest^H7954 in my house^H1005, and flourishing^H7487 in my palace^H1965. 5I saw^H2370 a dream^H2493 which made me afraid^H1763; and the thoughts^H2031 upon^H5922 my bed^H4903 and the visions^H2376 of my head^H7217 troubled^H927 me. 6Therefore^H4481 made^H7761 I^H4481 a decree^H2942 to bring^H5954 in all^H3606 the wise^H2445 men of Babylon^H895 before^H6925 me, that they might make known^H3046 unto me the interpretation^H6591 of the dream^H2493. 7Then^H116 came^H5954 in the magicians^H2749, the enchanters^H826, the Chaldeans^H3779, and the soothsayers^H1505; and I^H576 told^H560 the dream^H2493 before^H6925 them; but they did not^H3809 make known^H3046 unto me the interpretation^H6591 thereof. 8But at^H5705 the last^H318 Daniel^H1841 came in^H5922 before me^H6925, whose name^H8036 was Belteshazzar^H1096, according to the name^H8036 of my god^H426, and in whom is the spirit^H7308 of the holy^H6922 gods^H426: and I told^H560 the dream^H2493 before^H6925 him, saying, 9O Belteshazzar^H1096, master^H7229 of the magicians^H2749, because I^H576 know^H3046 that the spirit^H7308 of the holy^H6922 gods^H426 is in thee, and no^H3606 secret^H7328 troubleth^H598 thee, tell^H560 me the visions^H2376 of my dream^H2493 that I have seen^H2370, and the interpretation^H6591 thereof. 10Thus were the visions^H2376 of my head^H7217 upon^H5922 my bed^H4903: I saw^H1934, and, behold^H431, a tree^H363 in the midst^H1459 of the earth^H772; and the height^H7314 thereof was great^H7690. 11The tree^H363 grew^H7236, and was strong^H8631, and the height^H7314 thereof reached^H4291 unto heaven^H8065, and the sight^H2379 thereof to the end^H5491 of all^H3606 the earth^H772. 12The leaves^H6074 thereof were fair^H8209, and the fruit^H4 thereof much^H7690, and in it was food^H4203 for all^H3606: the beasts^H2423 of the field^H1251 had shadow^H2927 under^H8460 it, and the birds^H6853 of the heavens^H8065 dwelt^H1753 in the branches^H6056 thereof, and all^H3606 flesh^H1321 was fed^H2110 from it^H4481. 13I saw^H1934 in the visions^H2376 of my head^H7217 upon^H5922 my bed^H4903, and, behold^H431, a watcher^H5894 and a holy one^H6922 came down^H5182 from^H4481 heaven^H8065. 14He cried^H7123 aloud^H2429, and said^H560 thus^H3652, Hew down^H1414 the tree^H363, and cut off^H7113 its branches^H6056, shake off^H5426 its leaves^H6074, and scatter^H921 its fruit^H4: let the beasts^H2423 get away^H5111 from^H4481 under it^H8479, and the fowls^H6853 from^H4481 its branches^H6056. 15Nevertheless^H1297 leave^H7662 the stump^H6136 of its roots^H8330 in the earth^H772, even with a band^H613 of iron^H6523 and brass^H5174, in the tender grass^H1883 of the field^H1251; and let it be wet^H6647 with the dew^H2920 of heaven^H8065: and let his portion^H2508 be with^H5974 the beasts^H2423 in the grass^H6211 of the earth^H772: 16let his heart^H3825 be changed^H8133 from^H4481 man's^H606, and let a beast's^H2423 heart^H3825 be given^H3052 unto him; and let seven^H7655 times^H5732 pass^H2499 over^H5922 him. 17The sentence^H6600 is by the decree^H1510 of the watchers^H5894, and the demand^H7595 by the word^H3983 of the holy ones^H6922; to^H5705 the intent^H1701 that the living^H2417 may know^H3046 that the Most High^H5943 ruleth^H7990 in the kingdom^H4437 of men^H606, and giveth^H5415 it to whomsoever^H4479 he will^H6634, and setteth up^H6966 over^H5922 it the lowest^H8215 of men^H606. 18This^H1836 dream^H2493 I^H576, king^H4430 Nebuchadnezzar^H5020, have seen^H2370; and thou^H607, O Belteshazzar^H1096, declare^H560 the interpretation^H6591, forasmuch as^H6903 all^H3606 the wise^H2445 men of my kingdom^H4437 are not^H3809 able^H3202 to make known^H3046 unto me the interpretation^H6591; but thou^H607 art able^H3546; for the spirit^H7308 of the holy^H6922 gods^H426 is in thee. 19Then^H116 Daniel^H1841, whose name^H8036 was Belteshazzar^H1096, was stricken dumb^H8075 for a^H2298 while^H8160, and his thoughts^H7476 troubled^H927 him. The king^H4430 answered^H560 and said^H6032, Belteshazzar^H1096, let not^H409 the dream^H2493, or the interpretation^H6591, trouble^H927 thee. Belteshazzar^H1096 answered^H6032 and said^H560, My lord^H4756, the dream^H2493 be to them that hate^H8131 thee, and the interpretation^H6591 thereof to thine adversaries^H6146. 20The tree^H363 that thou sawest^H2370, which grew^H7236, and was strong^H8631, whose height^H7314 reached^H4291 unto heaven^H8065, and the sight^H2379 thereof to all^H3606 the earth^H772; 21whose leaves^H6074 were fair^H8209, and the fruit^H4 thereof much^H7690, and in it was food^H4203 for all^H3606; under^H8460 which the beasts^H2423 of the field^H1251 dwelt^H1753, and upon whose branches^H6056 the birds^H6853 of the heavens^H8065 had their habitation^H7932: 22it is thou^H607, O king^H4430, that art grown^H7236 and become strong^H8631; for thy greatness^H7238 is grown^H7236, and reacheth^H4291 unto heaven^H8065, and thy dominion^H7985 to the end^H5491 of the earth^H772. 23And whereas the king^H4430 saw^H2370 a watcher^H5894 and a holy one^H6922 coming down^H5182 from^H4481 heaven^H8065, and saying^H560, Hew^H1414 down^H1414 the tree^H363, and destroy^H2255 it; nevertheless^H1297 leave^H7662 the stump^H6136 of the roots^H8330 thereof in the earth^H772, even with a band^H613 of iron^H6523 and brass^H5174, in the tender grass^H1883 of the field^H1251, and let it be wet^H6647 with the dew^H2920 of heaven^H8065: and let his portion^H2508 be with^H5974 the beasts^H2423 of the field^H1251, till^H5705 seven^H7655 times^H5732 pass^H2499 over^H5922 him; 24this^H1836 is the interpretation^H6591, O king^H4430, and it^H1932 is the decree^H1510 of the Most High^H5943, which is come^H4291 upon^H5922 my lord^H4756 the king^H4430: 25that thou shalt be driven^H2957 from^H4481 men^H606, and thy dwelling^H4070 shall be^H1934 with^H5974 the beasts^H2423 of the field^H1251, and thou shalt be made to eat^H2939 grass^H6211 as oxen^H8450, and shalt be wet^H6647 with the dew^H2920 of heaven^H8065, and seven^H7655 times^H5732 shall pass^H2499 over^H5922 thee; till^H5705 thou know^H3046 that the Most High^H5943 ruleth^H7990 in the kingdom^H4437 of men^H606, and giveth^H5415 it to whomsoever^H4479 he will^H6634. 26And whereas they commanded^H560 to leave^H7662 the stump^H6136 of the roots^H8330 of the tree^H363; thy kingdom^H4437 shall be sure^H7011 unto thee, after^H4481 that thou shalt have known^H3046 that the heavens^H8065 do rule^H7990. 27Wherefore^H3861, O king^H4430, let my counsel^H4431 be acceptable^H8232 unto thee^H5922, and break off^H6562 thy sins^H2408 by righteousness^H6665, and thine iniquities^H5758 by showing mercy^H2604 to the poor^H6033; if^H2006 there may be^H1934 a lengthening^H754 of thy tranquillity^H7963. 28All^H3606 this came^H4291 upon^H5922 the king^H4430 Nebuchadnezzar^H5020. 29At the end^H7118 of twelve^H8648 months^H3393 he was walking^H1934 in^H5922 the royal^H4437 palace^H1965 of Babylon^H895. 30The king^H4430 spake^H6032 and said^H560, Is^H576 not^H3809 this^H1932 great^H7229 Babylon^H895, which I^H576 have built^H1124 for the royal^H4437 dwelling-place, by the might^H8632 of my power^H2632 and for the glory^H3367 of my majesty^H1923? 31While^H5751 the word^H4406 was in the king's^H4430 mouth^H6433, there fell^H5308 a voice^H7032 from^H4481 heaven^H8065, saying, O king^H4430 Nebuchadnezzar^H5020, to thee it is spoken^H560: The kingdom^H4437 is departed^H5709 from^H4481 thee: 32and thou shalt be driven^H2957 from^H4481 men^H606; and thy dwelling^H4070 shall be with^H5974 the beasts^H2423 of the field^H1251; thou shalt be made to eat^H2939 grass^H6211 as oxen^H8450; and seven^H7655 times^H5732 shall pass^H2499 over^H5922 thee; until^H5705 thou know^H3046 that the Most High^H5943 ruleth^H7990 in the kingdom^H4437 of men^H606, and giveth^H5415 it to whomsoever^H4479 he will^H6634. 33The same hour^H8160 was the thing^H4406 fulfilled^H5487 upon^H5922 Nebuchadnezzar^H5020: and he was driven^H2957 from^H4481 men^H606, and did eat^H399 grass^H6211 as oxen^H8450, and his body^H1655 was wet^H6647 with the dew^H2920 of heaven^H8065, till^H5705 his hair^H8177 was grown^H7236 like eagles^H5403' feathers, and his nails^H2953 like birds^H6853' claws. 34And at the end^H7118 of the days^H3118 I^H576, Nebuchadnezzar^H5020, lifted up^H5191 mine eyes^H5870 unto heaven^H8065, and mine understanding^H4486 returned^H8421 unto me^H5922, and I blessed^H1289 the Most High^H5943, and I praised^H7624 and honored^H1922 him that liveth^H2417 for ever^H5957; for his dominion^H7985 is an everlasting^H5957 dominion^H7985, and his kingdom^H4437 from^H5974 generation^H1859 to generation^H1859. 35And all^H3606 the inhabitants^H1753 of the earth^H772 are reputed^H2804 as nothing^H3809; and he doeth^H5648 according to his will^H6634 in the army^H2429 of heaven^H8065, and among the inhabitants^H1753 of the earth^H772; and none^H3809 can^H383 stay^H4223 his hand^H3028, or say^H560 unto him, What^H4101 doest^H5648 thou? 36At the same time^H2166 mine understanding^H4486 returned^H8421 unto me^H5922; and for the glory^H3367 of my kingdom^H4437, my majesty^H1923 and brightness^H2122 returned^H8421 unto me^H5922; and my counsellors^H1907 and my lords^H7261 sought^H1156 unto me^H5922; and I was established^H8627 in my kingdom^H4437, and excellent^H3493 greatness^H7238 was added^H3255 unto me. 37Now^H3705 I^H576, Nebuchadnezzar^H5020, praise^H7624 and extol^H7313 and honor^H1922 the King^H4430 of heaven^H8065; for all^H3606 his works^H4567 are truth^H7187, and his ways^H735 justice^H1780; and those that walk^H1981 in pride^H1467 he is able^H3202 to abase^H8214.
