Daniel 4:22-25

22 pit is you, O king, who have grown and become strong. qYour greatness has grown and reaches to heaven, rand your dominion to the ends of the earth. 23And because the king saw sa watcher, a holy one, coming down from heaven and saying, tChop down the tree and destroy it, but leave the stump of its roots in the earth, bound with a band of iron and bronze, in the tender grass of the field, and let him be wet with the dew of heaven, and let his portion be with the beasts of the field, till useven periods of time pass over him,’ 24this is the interpretation, O king: It is a decree of the Most High, which has come upon my lord the king, 25 vthat you shall be driven from among men, and your dwelling shall be with the beasts of the field. You shall be made wto eat grass like an ox, and you shall be wet with the dew of heaven, and xseven periods of time shall pass over you, till yyou know that the Most High rules the kingdom of men and gives it to whom he will.

Daniel 5:20-23

20But zwhen his heart was lifted up and his spirit was hardened so that he dealt proudly, aahe was brought down from his kingly throne, and his glory was taken from him. 21 abHe was driven from among the children of mankind, and his mind was made like that of a beast, and his dwelling was with the wild donkeys. He was fed grass like an ox, and his body was wet with the dew of heaven, acuntil he knew that the adMost High God rules the kingdom of mankind and sets over it whom he will. 22And you his son,
Or successor
afBelshazzar, aghave not humbled your heart, though you knew all this,
23but you have lifted up yourself against ahthe Lord of heaven. And aithe vessels of his house have been brought in before you, and you and your lords, your wives, and your concubines have drunk wine from them. ajAnd you have praised the gods of silver and gold, of bronze, iron, wood, and stone, which do not see or hear or know, akbut the God in whose hand is your breath, and alwhose are all your ways, amyou have not honored.
