Daniel 4:19 (ASV) American Standard Version

1 Nebuchadnezzar the king, unto all the peoples, nations, and languages, that dwell in all the earth: Peace be multiplied unto you.
2 It hath seemed good unto me to show the signs and wonders that the Most High God hath wrought toward me.
3 How great are his signs! and how mighty are his wonders! his kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and his dominion is from generation to generation.
4 I, Nebuchadnezzar, was at rest in my house, and flourishing in my palace.
5 I saw a dream which made me afraid; and the thoughts upon my bed and the visions of my head troubled me.
6 Therefore made I a decree to bring in all the wise men of Babylon before me, that they might make known unto me the interpretation of the dream.
7 Then came in the magicians, the enchanters, the Chaldeans, and the soothsayers; and I told the dream before them; but they did not make known unto me the interpretation thereof.
8 But at the last Daniel came in before me, whose name was Belteshazzar, according to the name of my god, and in whom is the spirit of the holy gods: and I told the dream before him, saying,
9 O Belteshazzar, master of the magicians, because I know that the spirit of the holy gods is in thee, and no secret troubleth thee, tell me the visions of my dream that I have seen, and the interpretation thereof.
10 Thus were the visions of my head upon my bed: I saw, and, behold, a tree in the midst of the earth; and the height thereof was great.
11 The tree grew, and was strong, and the height thereof reached unto heaven, and the sight thereof to the end of all the earth.
12 The leaves thereof were fair, and the fruit thereof much, and in it was food for all: the beasts of the field had shadow under it, and the birds of the heavens dwelt in the branches thereof, and all flesh was fed from it.
13 I saw in the visions of my head upon my bed, and, behold, a watcher and a holy one came down from heaven.
14 He 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 fowls from its branches.
15 Nevertheless 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 wet with the dew of heaven: and let his portion be with the beasts in the grass of the earth:
16 let his heart be changed from mans, and let a beasts heart be given unto him; and let seven times pass over him.
17 The sentence is by the decree of the watchers, and the demand by the word of the holy ones; to the intent that the living may know that the Most High ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will, and setteth up over it the lowest of men.
18 This dream I, king Nebuchadnezzar, have seen; and thou, O Belteshazzar, declare 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.
19 Then Daniel, whose name was Belteshazzar, was stricken dumb for a while, and his thoughts troubled him. The king answered and said, Belteshazzar, let not the dream, or the interpretation, trouble thee. Belteshazzar answered and said, My lord, the dream be to them that hate thee, and the interpretation thereof to thine adversaries.
20 The tree that thou sawest, which grew, and was strong, whose height reached unto heaven, and the sight thereof to all the earth;
21 whose leaves were fair, and the fruit thereof much, and in it was food for all; under which the beasts of the field dwelt, and upon whose branches the birds of the heavens had their habitation:
22 it 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.
23 And whereas the king saw a watcher and a holy one coming down from heaven, and saying, Hew down the tree, and destroy it; nevertheless leave the stump of the roots thereof in the earth, even 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;
24 this is the interpretation, O king, and it is the decree of the Most High, which is come upon my lord the king:
25 that thou shalt be driven from men, and thy dwelling shall be with the beasts of the field, and thou shalt be made to eat grass as oxen, and shalt be wet 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.
26 And whereas they commanded to leave the stump of the roots of the tree; thy kingdom shall be sure unto thee, after that thou shalt have known that the heavens do rule.
27 Wherefore, O king, let my counsel be acceptable unto thee, and break off thy sins by righteousness, and thine iniquities by showing mercy to the poor; if there may be a lengthening of thy tranquillity.
28 All this came upon the king Nebuchadnezzar.
29 At the end of twelve months he was walking in the royal palace of Babylon.
30 The king spake and said, Is not this great Babylon, which I have built for the royal dwelling-place, by the might of my power and for the glory of my majesty?
31 While the word was in the kings mouth, there fell a voice from heaven, saying, O king Nebuchadnezzar, to thee it is spoken: The kingdom is departed from thee:
32 and thou shalt be driven from men; and they dwelling shall be with the beasts of the field; thou shalt be made to eat grass as oxen; and seven times shall pass over thee; until thou know that the Most High ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will.
33 The same hour was the thing fulfilled upon Nebuchadnezzar: and he was driven from men, and did eat grass as oxen, and his body was wet with the dew of heaven, till his hair was grown like eagles feathers, and his nails like birds claws.
34 And at the end of the days I, Nebuchadnezzar, lifted up mine eyes unto heaven, and mine understanding returned unto me, and I blessed the Most High, and I praised and honored him that liveth for ever; for his dominion is an everlasting dominion, and his kingdom from generation to generation.
35 And all the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing; and he doeth according to his will in the army of heaven, and among the inhabitants of the earth; and none can stay his hand, or say unto him, What doest thou?
36 At the same time mine understanding returned unto me; and for the glory of my kingdom, my majesty and brightness returned unto me; and my counsellors and my lords sought unto me; and I was established in my kingdom, and excellent greatness was added unto me.
37 Now I, Nebuchadnezzar, praise and extol and honor the King of heaven; for all his works are truth, and his ways justice; and those that walk in pride he is able to abase.
1 Nebuchadnezzar H5020 the king, H4430 unto all H3606 people, H5972 nations, H524 and languages, H3961 that H1768 dwell H1753 in all H3606 the earth; H772 Peace H8001 be multiplied H7680 unto you.
2 I thought it good H8232 H6925 to show H2324 the signs H852 and wonders H8540 that H1768 the high H5943 God H426 hath wrought H5648 toward H5974 me.
3 How H4101 great H7260 are his signs H852 ! and how H4101 mighty H8624 are his wonders H8540 ! his kingdom H4437 is an everlasting H5957 kingdom, H4437 and his dominion H7985 is from H5974 generation H1859 to generation. H1859
4 I H576 Nebuchadnezzar H5020 was H1934 at rest H7954 in mine house, H1005 and flourishing H7487 in my palace: H1965
5 I saw H2370 a dream H2493 which made me afraid, H1763 and the thoughts H2031 upon H5922 my bed H4903 and the visions H2376 of my head H7217 troubled H927 me.
6 Therefore made H4481 H7761 I a decree H2942 to bring in H5924 all H3606 the wise H2445 men of Babylon H895 before H6925 me, that H1768 they might make known H3046 unto me the interpretation H6591 of the dream. H2493
7 Then H116 came in H5954 the magicians, H2749 the astrologers, H826 the Chaldeans, H3779 and the soothsayers: H1505 and I H576 told H560 the dream H2493 before H6925 them ; but they did not H3809 make known H3046 unto me the interpretation H6591 thereof.
8 But at H5705 the last H318 Daniel H1841 came in H5954 before H6925 me, whose H1768 name H8036 was Belteshazzar, H1096 according to the name H8036 of my god, H426 and in whom H1768 is the spirit H7308 of the holy H6922 gods: H426 and before H6925 him I told H560 the dream, H2493 saying ,
9 O Belteshazzar, H1096 master H7229 of the magicians, H2749 because H1768 I H576 know H3046 that H1768 the spirit H7308 of the holy H6922 gods H426 is in thee , and no H3809 H3606 secret H7328 troubleth H598 thee, tell H560 me the visions H2376 of my dream H2493 that H1768 I have seen, H2370 and the interpretation H6591 thereof.
10 Thus were the visions H2376 of mine head H7217 in H5922 my bed; H4903 I saw H1934 H2370 , and behold H431 a tree H363 in the midst H1459 of the earth, H772 and the height H7314 thereof was great. H7690
11 The tree H363 grew, H7236 and was strong, H8631 and the height H7314 thereof reached H4291 unto heaven, H8065 and the sight H2379 thereof to the end H5491 of all H3606 the earth: H772
12 The leaves H6074 thereof were fair, H8209 and the fruit H4 thereof much, H7690 and in it was meat H4203 for all: H3606 the beasts H2423 of the field H1251 had shadow H2927 under H8460 it , and the fowls H6853 of the heaven H8065 dwelt H1753 in the boughs H6056 thereof , and all H3606 flesh H1321 was fed H2110 of H4481 it.
13 I saw H1934 H2370 in the visions H2376 of my head H7217 upon H5922 my bed, H4903 and, behold, H431 a watcher H5894 and a holy one H6922 came down H5182 from H4481 heaven; H8065
14 He cried H7123 aloud, H2429 and said H560 thus, H3652 Hew down H1414 the tree, H363 and cut off H7113 his branches, H6056 shake off H5426 his leaves, H6074 and scatter H921 his fruit: H4 let the beasts H2423 get away H5111 from H4481 under H8479 it , and the fowls H6853 from H4481 his branches: H6056
15 Nevertheless H1297 leave H7662 the stump H6136 of his roots H8330 in the earth, H772 even with a band H613 of H1768 iron H6523 and brass, H5174 in the tender grass H1883 of H1768 the field; H1251 and let it be wet H6647 with the dew H2920 of heaven, H8065 and let his portion H2508 be with H5974 the beasts H2423 in the grass H6211 of the earth: H772
16 Let his heart H3825 be changed H8133 from H4481 man's H606 , and let a beast's H2423 heart H3825 be given H3052 unto him ; and let seven H7655 times H5732 pass H2499 over H5922 him.
17 This matter H6600 is by the decree H1510 of the watchers, H5894 and the demand H7595 by the word H3983 of the holy ones: H6922 to H5705 the intent H1701 that H1768 the living H2417 may know H3046 that H1768 the most High H5943 ruleth H7990 in the kingdom H4437 of men, H606 and giveth H5415 it to whomsoever H4479 H1768 he will, H6634 and setteth up H6966 over H5922 it the basest H8215 of men. H606
18 This H1836 dream H2493 I H576 king H4430 Nebuchadnezzar H5020 have seen. H2370 Now thou, H607 O Belteshazzar, H1096 declare H560 the interpretation H6591 thereof , forasmuch as H3606 H6903 H1768 all H3606 the wise H2445 men of my kingdom H4437 are not able H3202 H3809 to make known H3046 unto me the interpretation: H6591 but thou H607 art able; H3546 for H1768 the spirit H7308 of the holy H6922 gods H426 is in thee.
19 Then H116 Daniel, H1841 whose H1768 name H8036 was Belteshazzar, H1096 was astonished H8075 for one H2298 hour, H8160 and his thoughts H7476 troubled H927 him . The king H4430 spoke, H6032 and said, H560 Belteshazzar, H1096 let not H409 the dream, H2493 or the interpretation H6591 thereof, trouble H927 thee. Belteshazzar H1096 answered H6032 and said, H560 My lord, H4756 the dream H2493 be to them that hate H8131 thee , and the interpretation H6591 thereof to thine enemies. H6146
20 The tree H363 that H1768 thou sawest, H2370 which H1768 grew, H7236 and was strong, H8631 whose height H7314 reached H4291 unto the heaven, H8065 and the sight H2379 thereof to all H3606 the earth; H772
21 Whose leaves H6074 were fair, H8209 and the fruit H4 thereof much, H7690 and in it was meat H4203 for all; H3606 under H8460 which the beasts H2423 of the field H1251 dwelt, H1753 and upon whose branches H6056 the fowls H6853 of the heaven H8065 had their habitation: H7932
22 It H1932 is thou, H607 O king, H4430 that H1768 art grown H7236 and become strong: H8631 for thy greatness H7238 is grown, H7236 and reacheth H4291 unto heaven, H8065 and thy dominion H7985 to the end H5491 of the earth. H772
23 And whereas H1768 the king H4430 saw H2370 a watcher H5894 and a holy one H6922 coming down H5182 from H4481 heaven, H8065 and saying, H560 Hew the tree down H1414 H363 , and destroy H2255 it; yet H1297 leave H7662 the stump H6136 of the roots H8330 thereof in the earth, H772 even with a band H613 of H1768 iron H6523 and brass, H5174 in the tender grass H1883 of H1768 the field; H1251 and let it be wet H6647 with the dew H2920 of heaven, H8065 and let his portion H2508 be with H5974 the beasts H2423 of the field, H1251 till H5705 H1768 seven H7655 times H5732 pass H2499 over H5922 him;
24 This H1836 is the interpretation, H6591 O king, H4430 and this H1932 is the decree H1510 of the most High, H5943 which H1768 is come H4291 upon H5922 my lord H4756 the king: H4430
25 That they shall drive H2957 thee from H4481 men, H606 and thy dwelling H4070 shall be H1934 with H5974 the beasts H2423 of the field, H1251 and they shall make thee to eat H2939 grass H6211 as oxen, H8450 and they shall wet H6647 thee with the dew H4481 H2920 of heaven, H8065 and seven H7655 times H5732 shall pass H2499 over H5922 thee, till H5705 H1768 thou know H3046 that H1768 the most High H5943 ruleth H7990 in the kingdom H4437 of men, H606 and giveth H5415 it to whomsoever H4479 H1768 he will. H6634
26 And whereas H1768 they commanded H560 to leave H7662 the stump H6136 of H1768 the tree H363 roots; H8330 thy kingdom H4437 shall be sure H7011 unto thee , after that H4481 H1768 thou shalt have known H3046 that H1768 the heavens H8065 do rule. H7990
27 Wherefore H3861 , O king, H4430 let my counsel H4431 be acceptable H8232 unto H5922 thee , and break H6562 off thy sins H2408 by righteousness, H6665 and thine iniquities H5758 by showing mercy H2604 to the poor; H6033 if H2006 it may be H1934 a lengthening H754 of thy tranquillity. H7963
28 All this H3606 came H4291 upon H5922 the king H4430 Nebuchadnezzar. H5020
29 At the end H7118 of twelve H8648 H6236 months H3393 he walked H1934 H1981 in H5922 the palace H1965 of the kingdom H4437 of H1768 Babylon. H895
30 The king H4430 spoke, H6032 and said, H560 Is not H3809 this H1668 great H7229 Babylon, H895 that H1768 I H576 have built H1124 for the house H1005 of the kingdom H4437 by the might H8632 of my power, H2632 and for the honor H3367 of my majesty H1923 ?
31 While H5751 the word H4406 was in the king's H4430 mouth, H6433 there fell H5308 a voice H7032 from H4481 heaven, H8065 saying , O king H4430 Nebuchadnezzar, H5020 to thee it is spoken; H560 The kingdom H4437 is departed H5709 from H4481 thee.
32 And they shall drive H2957 thee from H4481 men, H606 and thy dwelling H4070 shall be with H5974 the beasts H2423 of the field: H1251 they shall make thee to eat H2939 grass H6211 as oxen, H8450 and seven H7655 times H5732 shall pass H2499 over H5922 thee, until H5705 H1768 thou know H3046 that H1768 the most High H5943 ruleth H7990 in the kingdom H4437 of men, H606 and giveth H5415 it to whomsoever H4479 H1768 he will. H6634
33 The same hour H8160 was the thing H4406 fulfilled H5487 upon H5922 Nebuchadnezzar: H5020 and he was driven H2957 from H4481 men, H606 and did eat H399 grass H6211 as oxen, H8450 and his body H1655 was wet H6647 with the dew H4481 H2920 of heaven, H8065 till H5705 H1768 his hairs H8177 were grown H7236 like eagles' H5403 feathers , and his nails H2953 like birds' H6853 claws .
34 And at the end H7118 of the days H3118 I H576 Nebuchadnezzar H5020 lifted up H5191 mine eyes H5870 unto heaven, H8065 and mine understanding H4486 returned H8421 unto H5922 me , and I blessed H1289 the most High, H5943 and I praised H7624 and honored H1922 him that liveth H2417 forever, H5957 whose H1768 dominion H7985 is an everlasting H5957 dominion, H7985 and his kingdom H4437 is from H5974 generation H1859 to generation: H1859
35 And all H3606 the inhabitants H1753 of the earth H772 are reputed H2804 as nothing: H3809 and he doeth H5648 according to his will H6634 in the army H2429 of heaven, H8065 and among the inhabitants H1753 of the earth: H772 and none H3809 can H383 stay H4223 his hand, H3028 or say H560 unto him, What H4101 doest H5648 thou?
36 At the same time H2166 my reason H4486 returned H8421 unto H5922 me ; and for the glory H3367 of my kingdom, H4437 mine honor H1923 and brightness H2122 returned H8421 unto H5922 me ; and my counselors H1907 and my lords H7261 sought H1156 unto me ; and I was established H8627 in H5922 my kingdom, H4437 and excellent H3493 majesty H7238 was added H3255 unto me.
37 Now H3705 I H576 Nebuchadnezzar H5020 praise H7624 and extol H7313 and honor H1922 the King H4430 of heaven, H8065 all H3606 whose H1768 works H4567 are truth, H7187 and his ways H735 judgment: H1780 and those H1768 that walk H1981 in pride H1467 he is able H3202 to abase. H8214
