Daniel 5:18-20
181O king, the 2Most High God 3granted 4sovereignty, 5grandeur, glory and majesty to Nebuchadnezzar your father.
19Because of the grandeur which He bestowed on him, all the peoples, nations and men of every 6language feared and trembled before him; 7whomever he wished he killed and whomever he wished he spared alive; and whomever he wished he elevated and whomever he wished he humbled.
20But when his heart was 8lifted up and his spirit became so 910proud that he behaved arrogantly, he was 11deposed from his royal throne and his glory was taken away from him.
