34 “At the end of ·that time [L the days], I, Nebuchadnezzar, ·looked up [L lifted my eyes] toward heaven [C acknowledging God’s supremacy], and ·I could think normally again [L my reason was restored to me]! Then I ·gave praise to [blessed] the Most High God; I gave honor and glory to him who lives forever.

“God’s ·rule is forever [L sovereignty is an eternal sovereignty],
    and his kingdom continues for ·all time [L all generations].

    are ·not truly important [counted as nothing].

    or ·question what he does [L say, ‘What are you doing?’].
