1 Nebuchadnezzar 5020 the king 4430, unto all 3606 people 5972, nations 524, and languages 3961, that dwell 1753 in all 3606 the earth 772; Peace 8001 be multiplied 7680 unto you.
2 I thought 6925 it good 8232 to shew 2324 the signs 852 and wonders 8540 that the high 5943 God 426 hath wrought 5648 toward 5974 me.
3 How 4101 great 7260 are his signs 852! and how 4101 mighty 8624 are his wonders 8540! his kingdom 4437 is an everlasting 5957 kingdom 4437, and his dominion 7985 is from 5974 generation 1859 to generation 1859.
4 I 576 Nebuchadnezzar 5020 was 1934 at rest 7954 in mine house 1005, and flourishing 7487 in my palace 1965:
5 I saw 2370 a dream 2493 which made me afraid 1763, and the thoughts 2031 upon 5922 my bed 4903 and the visions 2376 of my head 7217 troubled 927 me.
6 Therefore 4481 made 7761 I a decree 2942 to bring 5954 in all 3606 the wise 2445 men of Babylon 895 before 6925 me, that they might make known 3046 unto me the interpretation 6591 of the dream 2493.
7 Then 116 came 5954 in the magicians 2749, the astrologers 826, the Chaldeans 3779, and the soothsayers 1505: and I 576 told 560 the dream 2493 before 6925 them; but they did not 3809 make known 3046 unto me the interpretation 6591 thereof.
8 But at 5705 the last 318 Daniel 1841 came in 5922 before me 6925, whose name 8036 was Belteshazzar 1096, according to the name 8036 of my god 426, and in whom is the spirit 7308 of the holy 6922 gods 426: and before 6925 him I told 560 the dream 2493, saying,
9 O Belteshazzar 1096, master 7229 of the magicians 2749, because I 576 know 3046 that the spirit 7308 of the holy 6922 gods 426 is in thee, and no 3606 3809 secret 7328 troubleth 598 thee, tell 560 me the visions 2376 of my dream 2493 that I have seen 2370, and the interpretation 6591 thereof.
10 Thus were the visions 2376 of mine head 7217 in 5922 my bed 4903; I saw 1934 2370, and behold 431 a tree 363 in the midst 1459 of the earth 772, and the height 7314 thereof was great 7690.
11 The tree 363 grew 7236, and was strong 8631, and the height 7314 thereof reached 4291 unto heaven 8065, and the sight 2379 thereof to the end 5491 of all 3606 the earth 772:
12 The leaves 6074 thereof were fair 8209, and the fruit 4 thereof much 7690, and in it was meat 4203 for all 3606: the beasts 2423 of the field 1251 had shadow 2927 under 8460 it, and the fowls 6853 of the heaven 8065 dwelt 1753 in the boughs 6056 thereof, and all 3606 flesh 1321 was fed 2110 of it 4481.
13 I saw 1934 2370 in the visions 2376 of my head 7217 upon 5922 my bed 4903, and, behold 431, a watcher 5894 and an holy one 6922 came down 5182 from 4481 heaven 8065;
14 He cried 7123 aloud 2429, and said 560 thus 3652, Hew down 1414 the tree 363, and cut off 7113 his branches 6056, shake off 5426 his leaves 6074, and scatter 921 his fruit 4: let the beasts 2423 get away 5111 from 4481 under it 8479, and the fowls 6853 from 4481 his branches 6056:
15 Nevertheless 1297 leave 7662 the stump 6136 of his roots 8330 in the earth 772, even with a band 613 of iron 6523 and brass 5174, in the tender grass 1883 of the field 1251; and let it be wet 6647 with the dew 2920 of heaven 8065, and let his portion 2508 be with 5974 the beasts 2423 in the grass 6211 of the earth 772:
16 Let his heart 3825 be changed 8133 from 4481 man's 606, and let a beast's 2423 heart 3825 be given 3052 unto him; and let seven 7655 times 5732 pass 2499 over 5922 him.
17 This matter 6600 is by the decree 1510 of the watchers 5894, and the demand 7595 by the word 3983 of the holy ones 6922: to 5705 the intent 1701 that the living 2417 may know 3046 that the most High 5943 ruleth 7990 in the kingdom 4437 of men 606, and giveth 5415 it to whomsoever 4479 he will 6634, and setteth up 6966 over 5922 it the basest 8215 of men 606.
18 This 1836 dream 2493 I 576 king 4430 Nebuchadnezzar 5020 have seen 2370. Now thou 607, O Belteshazzar 1096, declare 560 the interpretation 6591 thereof, forasmuch as 6903 all 3606 the wise 2445 men of my kingdom 4437 are not 3809 able 3202 to make known 3046 unto me the interpretation 6591: but thou 607 art able 3546; for the spirit 7308 of the holy 6922 gods 426 is in thee.
19 Then 116 Daniel 1841, whose name 8036 was Belteshazzar 1096, was astonied 8075 for one 2298 hour 8160, and his thoughts 7476 troubled 927 him. The king 4430 spake 6032, and said 560, Belteshazzar 1096, let not 409 the dream 2493, or the interpretation 6591 thereof, trouble 927 thee. Belteshazzar 1096 answered 6032 and said 560, My lord 4756, the dream 2493 be to them that hate 8131 thee, and the interpretation 6591 thereof to thine enemies 6146.
20 The tree 363 that thou sawest 2370, which grew 7236, and was strong 8631, whose height 7314 reached 4291 unto the heaven 8065, and the sight 2379 thereof to all 3606 the earth 772;
21 Whose leaves 6074 were fair 8209, and the fruit 4 thereof much 7690, and in it was meat 4203 for all 3606; under 8460 which the beasts 2423 of the field 1251 dwelt 1753, and upon whose branches 6056 the fowls 6853 of the heaven 8065 had their habitation 7932:
22 It is thou 607, O king 4430, that art grown 7236 and become strong 8631: for thy greatness 7238 is grown 7236, and reacheth 4291 unto heaven 8065, and thy dominion 7985 to the end 5491 of the earth 772.
23 And whereas the king 4430 saw 2370 a watcher 5894 and an holy one 6922 coming down 5182 from 4481 heaven 8065, and saying 560, Hew 1414 0 the tree 363 down 1414, and destroy 2255 it; yet 1297 leave 7662 the stump 6136 of the roots 8330 thereof in the earth 772, even with a band 613 of iron 6523 and brass 5174, in the tender grass 1883 of the field 1251; and let it be wet 6647 with the dew 2920 of heaven 8065, and let his portion 2508 be with 5974 the beasts 2423 of the field 1251, till 5705 seven 7655 times 5732 pass 2499 over 5922 him;
24 This 1836 is the interpretation 6591, O king 4430, and this 1932 is the decree 1510 of the most High 5943, which is come 4291 upon 5922 my lord 4756 the king 4430:
25 That they shall drive 2957 thee from 4481 men 606, and thy dwelling 4070 shall be 1934 with 5974 the beasts 2423 of the field 1251, and they shall make thee to eat 2939 grass 6211 as oxen 8450, and they shall wet 6647 thee with the dew 2920 of heaven 8065, and seven 7655 times 5732 shall pass 2499 over 5922 thee, till 5705 thou know 3046 that the most High 5943 ruleth 7990 in the kingdom 4437 of men 606, and giveth 5415 it to whomsoever 4479 he will 6634.
26 And whereas they commanded 560 to leave 7662 the stump 6136 of the tree 363 roots 8330; thy kingdom 4437 shall be sure 7011 unto thee, after 4481 that thou shalt have known 3046 that the heavens 8065 do rule 7990.
27 Wherefore 3861, O king 4430, let my counsel 4431 be acceptable 8232 unto thee 5922, and break off 6562 thy sins 2408 by righteousness 6665, and thine iniquities 5758 by shewing mercy 2604 to the poor 6033; if 2006 it may be 1934 a lengthening 754 of thy tranquillity 7963.
28 All 3606 this came 4291 upon 5922 the king 4430 Nebuchadnezzar 5020.
29 At the end 7118 of twelve 8648 6236 months 3393 he walked 1934 1981 in 5922 the palace 1965 of the kingdom 4437 of Babylon 895.
30 The king 4430 spake 6032, and said 560, Is not 3809 this 1932 1668 great 7229 Babylon 895, that I 576 have built 1124 for the house 1005 of the kingdom 4437 by the might 8632 of my power 2632, and for the honour 3367 of my majesty 1923?
31 While 5751 the word 4406 was in the king's 4430 mouth 6433, there fell 5308 a voice 7032 from 4481 heaven 8065, saying, O king 4430 Nebuchadnezzar 5020, to thee it is spoken 560; The kingdom 4437 is departed 5709 from 4481 thee.
32 And they shall drive 2957 thee from 4481 men 606, and thy dwelling 4070 shall be with 5974 the beasts 2423 of the field 1251: they shall make thee to eat 2939 grass 6211 as oxen 8450, and seven 7655 times 5732 shall pass 2499 over 5922 thee, until 5705 thou know 3046 that the most High 5943 ruleth 7990 in the kingdom 4437 of men 606, and giveth 5415 it to whomsoever 4479 he will 6634.
33 The same hour 8160 was the thing 4406 fulfilled 5487 upon 5922 Nebuchadnezzar 5020: and he was driven 2957 from 4481 men 606, and did eat 399 grass 6211 as oxen 8450, and his body 1655 was wet 6647 with the dew 2920 of heaven 8065, till 5705 his hairs 8177 were grown 7236 like eagles 5403' feathers, and his nails 2953 like birds 6853' claws.
34 And at the end 7118 of the days 3118 I 576 Nebuchadnezzar 5020 lifted up 5191 mine eyes 5870 unto heaven 8065, and mine understanding 4486 returned 8421 unto me 5922, and I blessed 1289 the most High 5943, and I praised 7624 and honoured 1922 him that liveth 2417 for ever 5957, whose dominion 7985 is an everlasting 5957 dominion 7985, and his kingdom 4437 is from 5974 generation 1859 to generation 1859:
35 And all 3606 the inhabitants 1753 of the earth 772 are reputed 2804 as nothing 3809: and he doeth 5648 according to his will 6634 in the army 2429 of heaven 8065, and among the inhabitants 1753 of the earth 772: and none 3809 can 383 stay 4223 his hand 3028, or say 560 unto him, What 4101 doest 5648 thou?
36 At the same time 2166 my reason 4486 returned 8421 unto me 5922; and for the glory 3367 of my kingdom 4437, mine honour 1923 and brightness 2122 returned 8421 unto me 5922; and my counsellors 1907 and my lords 7261 sought 1156 unto me 5922; and I was established 8627 in my kingdom 4437, and excellent 3493 majesty 7238 was added 3255 unto me.
37 Now 3705 I 576 Nebuchadnezzar 5020 praise 7624 and extol 7313 and honour 1922 the King 4430 of heaven 8065, all 3606 whose works 4567 are truth 7187, and his ways 735 judgment 1780: and those that walk 1981 in pride 1467 he is able 3202 to abase 8214.
