Daniel 5:18-20

International Children’s Bible

¹⁸ “My king, the Most High God made your father Nebuchadnezzar a great, important and powerful king. ¹⁹ God made him very important. So all the people, nations and those who spoke every language were very afraid of Nebuchadnezzar. If he wanted a person to die, he put that person to death. And if he wanted a person to live, he let that person live. If he wanted to promote a person, he promoted him. And if he wanted a person to be unimportant, he made him unimportant.

²⁰ “But Nebuchadnezzar became too proud and stubborn. So he was taken off his royal throne. His glory was taken away.
