22it is 1you, O kingH4430; for you have becomeH7236 greatH7236 and grownH8631 strongH8631, and your 2majestyH7238 has becomeH7236 greatH7236 and reachedH4291 to the skyH8065, and your 3dominionH7985 to the endH5491 of the earthH772.
23And in that the kingH4430 sawH2370 an angelicH5894 watcherH5894, a holyH6922 oneH6922, descendingH5182 from heavenH8065 and sayingH560, “4ChopH1414 downH1414 the treeH363 and destroyH2255 it; yetH1297 leaveH7662 the stumpH6136 5with its rootsH8330 in the groundH772, but with a bandH613 of ironH6523 and bronzeH5174 around it in the newH1883 grassH1883 of the fieldH1251, let him be drenchedH6647 with the dewH2920 of heavenH8065, and let 6him shareH2508 with the animalsH2423 of the fieldH1251 untilH5705H1768 7sevenH7655 8periods of timeH5732 passH2499 overH5922 him,”
24thisH1836 is the interpretationH6591, O kingH4430, and thisH1932 is the decreeH1510 of the MostH5943 HighH5943, whichH1768 has 9comeH4291 upon my lordH4756 the kingH4430:
25that you be 10drivenH2957 awayH2957 from mankindH606 and your dwellingH4070 placeH4070 be with the animalsH2423 of the fieldH1251, and you be givenH2939 grassH6212 toH2939 eatH2939 like cattleH8450 and be drenchedH6647 with the dewH2920 of heavenH8065; and sevenH7655 11periods of timeH5732 will passH2499 overH5922 you, untilH5705H1768 you recognizeH3046 that the 12MostH5943 HighH5943 is rulerH7990 over the realmH4437 of mankindH606 and 13bestowsH5415 it on whomeverH4479H1768 He wishesH6634.
