Daniel 5:18-23

18 O king, the ^fMost High God ^ggave ^hNebuchadnezzar your father ⁱkingship and greatness and glory and majesty. 19 And because of the greatness that he gave him, ^jall peoples, nations, and languages ^ktrembled and feared before him. Whom he would, he killed, and whom he would, he kept alive; whom he would, he raised up, and whom he would, he humbled. 20 But ^lwhen his heart was lifted up and his spirit was hardened so that he dealt proudly, ^mhe was brought down from his kingly throne, and his glory was taken from him. 21 ⁿHe 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, ^ountil he knew that the ^pMost High God rules the kingdom of mankind and sets over it whom he will. 22 And you his son, ^{▼▼Or successor} ^rBelshazzar, ^shave not humbled your heart, though you knew all this, 23 but you have lifted up yourself against ^tthe Lord of heaven. And ^uthe 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. ^vAnd you have praised the gods of silver and gold, of bronze, iron, wood, and stone, which do not see or hear or know, ^wbut the God in whose hand is your breath, and ^xwhose are all your ways, ^yyou have not honored.

Luke 4:6

6 and said to him, “To you ^zI will give all this authority and their glory, ^aafor it has been delivered to me, and I give it to whom I will.

John 19:11

11 Jesus answered him, ^ab“You would have no authority over me at all unless it had been given you from above. Therefore ^ache who delivered me over to you ^adhas the greater sin.”
