Daniel 5:21-23
21He was also 1drivenH2957 awayH2957 from 2mankindH606, and his heartH3825 was madeH7739 likeH5974H7739 that of animalsH2423, and his dwellingH4070 placeH4070 was with the 3wildH6167 donkeysH6167. He was givenH2939 grassH6212 toH2939 eatH2939 like cattleH8450, and his bodyH1655 was drenchedH6647 with the dewH2920 of heavenH8065, untilH5705H1768 he recognizedH3046 that the 4MostH5943 HighH5943 GodH426 is rulerH7990 over the realmH4437 of mankindH606, and that He setsH6966 overH5922 it whomeverH4479H1768 He wishesH6634.
22Yet you, his 5sonH1247, BelshazzarH1113, have 6not humbledH8214 your heartH3825, evenH1768 thoughH6903 you knewH3046 allH3606 thisH1836,
23but you have 7risenH7313 up againstH5922 the 8LordH4756 of heavenH8065; and they have broughtH858 the vesselsH3984 of His houseH1005 beforeH6925 you, and you and your noblesH7261, your wivesH7695, and your concubinesH3904 have been drinkingH8355 wineH2562 out of them; and you have praisedH7624 the 9godsH426 of silverH3702 and goldH1722, of bronzeH5174, ironH6523, woodH636, and stoneH69, whichH1768 do not seeH7200, norH3809 hearH8086, norH3809 understandH3046. But the GodH426 10in whoseH1768 handH3028 are your life-breathH5396 and all your 11waysH735, you have not glorifiedH1922.
