 10Thus were the visions of my head upon my bed: I saw, and behold a tree in the midst of the earth, and its height was great.
 11The tree grew, and was strong, and its height reached unto the heavens, and the sight thereof to the end of all the earth.
 12Its leaves were beautiful, and its fruit abundant, and in it was food for all: the beasts of the field found shade under it, and the birds of the heavens dwelt in its branches, and all flesh was fed from it.
 13I saw in the visions of my head upon my bed, and behold, a watcher and a holy one came down from the heavens;
 14he cried aloud, and said thus: Hew down the tree, and cut off its branches, shake off its leaves, and scatter its fruit; let the beasts get away from under it, and the birds from its branches.
 15Nevertheless leave the stump of its roots in the earth, even with a band of iron and brass, in the tender grass of the field; and let it be bathed with the dew of heaven, and let his portion be with the beasts in the grass of the earth.
 16Let his heart be changed from man's, and let a beast's heart be given unto him; and let seven times pass over him.
 17This sentence is by the decree of the watchers, and the decision by the word of the holy ones: that the living may know that the Most High ruleth over the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will, and setteth up over it the basest of men.
 18This dream I, king Nebuchadnezzar, have seen; and thou, Belteshazzar, tell the interpretation, forasmuch as all the wise men of my kingdom are not able to make known unto me the interpretation; but thou art able, for the spirit of the holy gods is in thee. (Dan. 4:9‑18)
