Daniel 4:10-23
10Thus were the visionsH2376 of my headH7217 inH5922 my bedH4903; I sawH1934H2370, and beholdH431 a treeH363 in the midstH1459 of the earthH772, and its heightH7314 was greatH7690.1 11The treeH363 grewH7236, and was strongH8631, and its heightH7314 reachedH4291 to heavenH8065, and the sightH2379 of it to the endH5491 of allH3606 the earthH772: 12Its leavesH6074 were fairH8209, and its fruitH4 abundantH7690, and in it was foodH4203 for allH3606: the beastsH2423 of the fieldH1251 had shadeH2927 underH8460 it, and the fowlsH6853 of heavenH8065 dweltH1753 among its boughsH6056, and allH3606 fleshH1321 was fedH2110 from itH4481. 13I sawH1934H2370 in the visionsH2376 of my headH7217 uponH5922 my bedH4903, and, beholdH431, a watcherH5894 and an holy oneH6922 came downH5182 fromH4481 heavenH8065; 14He criedH7123 aloudH2429, and saidH560 thusH3652, Hew downH1414 the treeH363, and cut offH7113 its branchesH6056, shake offH5426 its leavesH6074, and scatterH921 its fruitH4: let the beastsH2423 escapeH5111 fromH4481 under itH8479, and the fowlsH6853 fromH4481 its branchesH6056:2 15NeverthelessH1297 leaveH7662 the stumpH6136 of its rootsH8330 in the earthH772, even with a bandH613 of ironH6523 and brassH5174, in the tender grassH1883 of the fieldH1251; and let it be wetH6647 with the dewH2920 of heavenH8065, and let its portionH2508 be withH5974 the beastsH2423 in the grassH6211 of the earthH772: 16Let his heartH3825 be changedH8133 fromH4481 man’sH606, and let a beast’sH2423 heartH3825 be givenH3052 to him; and let sevenH7655 timesH5732 passH2499 overH5922 him. 17This matterH6600 is by the decreeH1510 of the watchersH5894, and the demandH7595 by the wordH3983 of the holy onesH6922: toH5705 the intentH1701 that the livingH2417 may knowH3046 that the most HighH5943 rulethH7990 in the kingdomH4437 of menH606, and givethH5415 it to whomeverH4479 he willH6634, and setteth upH6966 overH5922 it the basestH8215 of menH606. 18ThisH1836 dreamH2493 IH576 kingH4430 NebuchadnezzarH5020 have seenH2370. Now thouH607, O BelteshazzarH1096, declareH560 the interpretationH6591 of it, forasmuch asH6903 allH3606 the wiseH2445 men of my kingdomH4437 are notH3809 ableH3202 to make knownH3046 to me the interpretationH6591: but thouH607 art ableH3546; for the spiritH7308 of the holyH6922 godsH426 is in thee.
19ThenH116 DanielH1841, whose nameH8036wasBelteshazzarH1096, was appalledH8075 for oneH2298 hourH8160, and his thoughtsH7476 troubledH927 him. The kingH4430 spokeH6032, and saidH560, BelteshazzarH1096, let notH409 the dreamH2493, or the interpretationH6591 of it, troubleH927 thee. BelteshazzarH1096 answeredH6032 and saidH560, My lordH4756, the dreamH2493 be to them that hateH8131 thee, and the interpretationH6591 of it to thy enemiesH6146. 20The treeH363 that thou sawestH2370, which grewH7236, and was strongH8631, whose heightH7314 reachedH4291 to the heavenH8065, and the sightH2379 of it to allH3606 the earthH772; 21Whose leavesH6074 were fairH8209, and the fruitH4 of it abundantH7690, and in it was foodH4203 for allH3606; underH8460 which the beastsH2423 of the fieldH1251 dweltH1753, and upon whose branchesH6056 the fowlsH6853 of heavenH8065 had their habitationH7932: 22It is thouH607, O kingH4430, that art grownH7236 and become strongH8631: for thy greatnessH7238 is grownH7236, and reachethH4291 to heavenH8065, and thy dominionH7985 to the endH5491 of the earthH772. 23And in that the kingH4430 sawH2370 a watcherH5894 and an holy oneH6922 coming downH5182 fromH4481 heavenH8065, and sayingH560, HewH1414 the treeH363 downH1414, and destroyH2255 it; yetH1297 leaveH7662 the stumpH6136 of its rootsH8330 in the earthH772, even with a bandH613 of ironH6523 and brassH5174, in the tender grassH1883 of the fieldH1251; and let it be wetH6647 with the dewH2920 of heavenH8065, and let its portionH2508 be withH5974 the beastsH2423 of the fieldH1251, tillH5705 sevenH7655 timesH5732 shall passH2499 overH5922 him;
