Daniel 5:18-20

New Catholic Bible

¹⁸ “O king, the Most High God gave your father Nebuchadnezzar a kingdom with power, glory, and majesty. ¹⁹ He made him so powerful that the nations and peoples of every language trembled with fear before him. He killed those whom he wished to kill; he spared those whom he wished to spare; he honored those whom he wished to honor, and he degraded those whom he wished to degrade.

²⁰ “However, when his heart became filled with pride and his spirit became hardened with arrogance, he was deposed from his kingly throne and stripped of his glory.
