¹⁴ For thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, “I have put a ^(A)yoke of iron on the neck of all these nations, that they may serve Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon; and they will ^(B)serve him. And ^(C)I have also given him the beasts of the field.”’”

³⁸ and wherever the sons of men dwell, or the ^(A)beasts of the field, or the birds of the sky, He has given them into your hand and has caused you to rule over them all. You are the head of gold.
