Daniel 4:15-17

International Children’s Bible

¹⁵ But let the stump and its roots stay in the ground. Put a band of iron and bronze around it. Let it stay in the field with the grass around it.

“‘Let the man become wet with dew. Let him live among the animals and plants of the earth. ¹⁶ Let him not think like a man any longer. Let him have the mind of an animal for seven years.

¹⁷ “‘Messengers gave this command. The holy ones declared the sentence. This is so all the people may know that the Most High God rules over the kingdoms of men. God gives those kingdoms to anyone he wants. And he chooses people to rule them who are not proud.’
