Daniel 4:34-36
Lexham English Bible
The King Praises and Extols the Most High God
34 “But at the end of that period,[a] I, Nebuchadnezzar, lifted up my eyes to heaven, and then my reason returned to me; and I blessed the Most High and the one who lives forever[b] I praised and I honored.
“For his sovereignty is an everlasting sovereignty,
and his kingdom continues from generation to generation.
35 And all the dwellers of the earth
are regarded as nothing,
and he does according to[c] his desire
in the host of heaven and among the dwellers of earth,
and there is not one who can hold back his hand,
or ask him,[d] ‘What are you doing?’
36 “At that time[e] my reason returned to me, and also the glory of my kingdom and my majesty and splendor returned to me, and my advisers and my lords[f] searched me out, and I was established over my kingdom and abundant greatness was added to me.
