Daniel 5:18Word of YahwehO thou king, the most high Elah gave Nebuchadnezzar thy father a kingdom, and greatness, and honour, and majesty: See the chapter |
Behold, I will send and take all the families of the north, saith Yahweh, and Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon, my servant, and will bring them against this land, and against the inhabitants thereof, and against all these nations round about, and will utterly destroy them, and make them an astonishment, and an hissing, and perpetual desolations.
Then Daniel, whose name was Belteshazzar, was perplexed for one hour, and his thoughts troubled him. The king spake, and said, Belteshazzar, let not the dream, or the interpretation thereof, trouble thee. Belteshazzar answered and said, My master, the dream be to them that hate thee, and the interpretation thereof to thine enemies.
And he was driven from the sons of men; and his heart was made like the beasts, and his dwelling was with the wild asses: they fed him with grass like oxen, and his body was wet with the dew of heaven; till he knew that the most high Elah ruled in the kingdom of men, and that he appointeth over it whomsoever he will.
