Dan. 2:37‑38• 37Thou, O king, art a king of kings for the God of heaven hath given thee a kingdom, power, and strength, and glory.
38And wheresoever the children of men dwell, the beasts of the field, and the fowls of heaven, hath he given into thine hand, and hath made thee ruler over them all. Thou art this head of gold. (Dan. 2:37‑38)
Dan. 4:17,22‑25,32• 17{i}This 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.{/i}
22It is thou, O king, that art grown and become strong; for thy greatness is grown, and reacheth unto heaven, and thy dominion to the end of the earth.
23And whereas the king saw a watcher, and an holy one coming down from heaven, and saying, hew the tree down and destroy it. Yet leave the stump of the roots thereof in the earth, with a band of iron and brass, in the tender grass of the field; and let it be wet with the dew of heaven, and let his portion be with the beasts of the field, till seven times pass over him.
24This is the interpretation, O king, and this is the decree of the Most High, which is come upon my lord the king.
25{i}They shall drive thee from men, and thy dwelling shall be with the beasts of the field, and{/i} they shall make thee to eat grass as oxen, and they shall wet thee with the dew of heaven; and seven times shall pass over thee, till thou know that the Most High ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever He will.
32{i}and they shall drive thee from men, and thy dwelling shall be with the beasts of the field; they shall make thee to eat grass as oxen, and seven times shall pass over thee, until thou know that the Most High ruleth over the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will{/i}. (Dan. 4:17,22‑25,32)
