Daniel 5:18-22
18As for youH607, O kingH4430, the Most HighH5943 GodH426 gaveH3052 your fatherH2 NebuchadnezzarH5020 sovereigntyH4437 and greatnessH7238, gloryH3367 and honorH1923. 19Because ofH4481 the greatnessH7238 thatH1768 He bestowedH3052 on him, the peopleH5972 of everyH3606 nationH524 and languageH3961 trembledH1934H2112 in fearH1763 beforeH4481 himH6925. HeH1934 killedH6992 whomH1768 heH1934 wishedH6634 and kept aliveH2418 whomH1768 heH1934 wishedH6634H1934; he exaltedH7313 whomH1768 heH1934 wishedH6634H1934 and humbledH8214 whomH1768 heH1934 wishedH6634H1934.
20But whenH1768 his heartH3825 became arrogantH7313 and his spiritH7308 was hardenedH8631 with prideH2103, he was deposedH5182 fromH4481 his royalH4437 throneH3764, and his gloryH3367 was takenH5709 from himH4481. 21He was driven awayH2957 fromH4481 mankindH1123H606, and his mindH3825 was likeH5974 that of a beastH2423H7739. He livedH4070 withH5974 the wild donkeysH6167 and ateH2939 grassH6211 like an oxH8450, and his bodyH1655 was drenchedH6647 with the dewH2920 of heavenH8065 untilH5705H1768 he acknowledgedH3046 thatH1768 the Most HighH5943 GodH426 rulesH7990 over the kingdomH4437 of mankindH606, settingH6966 over itH5922 whomH4479H1768 He wishesH6634.
22But youH607 his sonH1247,1 O BelshazzarH1113, have notH3809 humbledH8214 your heartH3825, even thoughH6903H1768H3606 you knewH3046 allH3606 thisH1836.
