Daniel 5:20-21
20But when his heart 1was 2arrogant and his spirit became so 34overbearing that he behaved presumptuously, he was 5deposed from his royal throne, and his dignity was taken away from him.
21He was also 6driven away from 7mankind, and his heart was made like that of animals, and his dwelling place was with the 8wild donkeys. He was given grass to eat like cattle, and his body was drenched with the dew of heaven, until he recognized that the 9Most High God is ruler over the realm of mankind, and that He sets over it whomever He wishes.
