The Vision of a Great Tree

4 ¶ “II, Nebuchadnezzar°, was at ease° in my house° and aflourishing° in my palace°. 5 I saw° a adream° and it made° me fearful°; and [these] fantasies° [as I lay] on my bed° and the bvisions° Iin my mind° kept° alarming° me. 6 So I gave° orders° to abring° into my presence° all° the wise° men° of Babylon°, that they might make° known° to me the interpretation° of the dream°. 7 Then° the Iamagicians°, the conjurers°, the IIChaldeans° and the diviners° came° in and I related° the dream° IIIto them, but they could not make° its binterpretation° known° to me. 8 But finally° Daniel° came° in before° me, whose° name° is aBelteshazzar° according to the name° of my god°, and in whom° is Iba spirit° of the holy° gods°; and I related° the dream° IIto him, [saying], 9 ‘O Belteshazzar°, achief° of the magicians°, since° I know° that ba spirit° of the holy° gods° is in you and cno°° mystery° baffles° you, dtell° [me] the visions° of my dream° which° I have seen°, along with its interpretation°.

Daniel Interprets the Vision

Daniel heareth the dream.

8 ¶ But atº the lastº Danielº came in¹² before² me,¹ whose² nameº [was] Belteshazzar,º according to the nameº of my god,º and in whom² [is] the spiritº of the holyº gods:º and beforeº him I toldºª the dream,º [saying], 9 O Belteshazzar,º masterº of the magicians,º because² Iº knowºª that² the spiritº of the holyº godsº [is] in thee, and noºº secretº troublethºª thee, tellºª me the visionsº of my dreamº that² I have seen,ºª and the interpretationº thereof. 10 Thus [were] the visionsº of mine headº inº my bed;º I saw,ººªª and beholdº a treeº in the midstº of the earth,º and the heightº thereof [was] great.º 11 The treeº grew,ºª and was strong,ºª and the heightº thereof reachedºª unto heaven,º and the sightº thereof to the endº of allº the earth:º 12 The leavesº thereof [were] fair,º and the fruitº thereof much,º and in it [was] meatº for all:º the beastsº of the fieldº had shadowºª underº it, and the fowlsº of the heavenº dweltºª in the boughsº thereof, and allº fleshº was fedºª of² it.¹ 13 I sawººªª in the visionsº of my headº uponº my bed,º and, behold,º a watcherº and an holy oneº came downºª fromº heaven;º 14 He criedºª aloud,º and saidºª thus,º Hew downº the tree,º and cut offºª his branches,º shake offºª his leaves,º and scatterºª his fruit:º let the beastsº get awayºª fromº under² it,¹ and the fowlsº fromº his branches:º 15 Neverthelessº leaveºª the stumpº of his rootsº in the earth,º even with a bandº of² ironº and brass,º in the tender grassº of² the field;º and let it be wetºª with the dewº of heaven,º and [let] his portionº [be] withº the beastsº in the grassº of the earth:º 16 Let his heartº be changedºª fromº man's,º and let a beast'sº heartº be givenºª unto him; and let sevenº timesº passº overº him. 17 This matterº [is] by the decreeº of the watchers,º and the demandº by the wordº of the holy ones:º toº the intentº that² the livingº may knowºª that² the most Highº rulethº in the kingdomº of men,º and givethºª it to whomsoeverº² he will,ºª and setteth upºª overº it the basestº of men.º 18 Thisº dreamº Iº kingº Nebuchadnezzarº have seen.ºª Now thou,º O Belteshazzar,º declareºª the interpretationº thereof, forasmuch asº²² allº the wiseº [men] of my kingdomº are not¹ ableºª² to make knownºª unto me the interpretation:º but thouº [art] able;ºª for² the spiritº of the holyº godsº [is] in thee.

He interpreteth it.

19 ¶ Thenº Daniel,º whose² nameº [was] Belteshazzar,º was astoniedºª for oneº hour,º and his thoughtsº troubledºª him. The kingº spake,ºª and said,ºª Belteshazzar,º let notº the dream,º or the interpretationº thereof, troubleºª thee. Belteshazzarº answeredºª and said,ºª My lord,º the dreamº [be] to them that hateºª thee, and the interpretationº thereof to thine enemies.º 20 The treeº that² thou sawest,ºª which² grew,ºª and was strong,ºª whose heightº reachedºª unto the heaven,º and the sightº thereof to allº the earth;º 21 Whose leavesº [were] fair,º and the fruitº thereof much,º and in it [was] meatº for all;º underº which the beastsº of the fieldº dwelt,ºª and upon whose branchesº the fowlsº of the heavenº had their habitation:ºª 22 It² [is] thou,º O king,º that² art grownºª and become strong:ºª for thy greatnessº is grown,ºª and reachethºª unto heaven,º and thy dominionº to the endº of the earth.º 23 And whereas² the kingº sawºª a watcherº and an holy oneº coming downºª fromº heaven,º and saying,ºª Hew¹ª the tree¹ down,º² and destroyºª it; yetº leaveºª the stumpº of the rootsº thereof in the earth,º even with a bandº of² ironº and brass,º in the tender grassº of² the field;º and let it be wetºª with the dewº of heaven,º and [let] his portionº [be] withº the beastsº of the field,º tillº² sevenº timesº passº overº him; 24 Thisº [is] the interpretation,º O king,º and thisº [is] the decreeº of the most High,º which² is comeºª uponº my lordº the king:º 25 That they shall driveºª thee fromº men,º and thy dwellingº shall beºª withº the beastsº of the field,º and they shall make thee to eatºª grassº as oxen,º and they shall wetºª thee with the dewº² of heaven,º and sevenº timesº shall passº overº thee, tillº² thou knowºª that² the most Highº rulethº in the kingdomº of men,º and givethºª it to whomsoeverº² he will.ºª 26 And whereas² they commandedºª to leaveºª the stumpº of² the treeº roots;º thy kingdomº shall be sureº unto thee, after¹ that²² thou shalt have knownºª that² the heavensº do rule.º 27 Wherefore,º O king,º let my counselº be acceptableºª unto² thee,¹ and break² off¹ª thy sinsº by righteousness,º and thine iniquitiesº by shewing mercyºª to the poor;ºª ifº it may beºª a lengtheningº of thy tranquillity.º

The story of the event.

28 ¶ All¹ this² cameºª uponº the kingº Nebuchadnezzar.º 29 At the endº of twelveºº monthsº he walkedººªª inº the palaceº of the kingdomº of² Babylon.º 30 The kingº spake,ºª and said,ºª Is notº thisº¹ greatº Babylon,º that² Iº have builtºª for the houseº of the kingdomº by the mightº of my power,º and for the honourº of my majesty?º 31 Whileº the wordº [was] in the king'sº mouth,º there fellºª a voiceº fromº heaven,º [saying], O kingº Nebuchadnezzar,º to thee it is spoken;ºª The kingdomº is departedºª fromº thee. 32 And they shall driveºª thee fromº men,º and thy dwellingº [shall be] withº the beastsº of the field:º they shall make thee to eatºª grassº as oxen,º and sevenº timesº shall passº overº thee, untilº² thou knowºª that² the most Highº rulethº in the kingdomº of men,º and givethºª it to whomsoeverº² he will.ºª 33 The same hourº was the thingº fulfilledºª uponº Nebuchadnezzar:º and he was drivenºª fromº men,º and did eatºª grassº as oxen,º and his bodyº was wetºª with the dewº² of heaven,º tillº² his hairsº were grownºª like eagles'º [feathers], and his nailsº like birds'º [claws]. 34 And at the endº of the daysº Iº Nebuchadnezzarº lifted upºª mine eyesº unto heaven,º and mine understandingº returnedºª unto² me,¹ and I blessedºª the most High,º and I praisedºª and honouredºª him that livethº for ever,º whose² dominionº [is] an everlastingº dominion,º and his kingdomº [is] fromº generationº to generation:º 35 And allº the inhabitantsºª of the earthº [are] reputedºª as nothing:º and he doethºª according to his willºª in the armyº of heaven,º and [among] the inhabitantsºª of the earth:º and noneº canº stayºª his hand,º or sayºª unto him, Whatº doestºª thou? 36 At the same timeº my reasonº returnedºª unto² me;¹ and for the gloryº of my kingdom,º mine honourº and brightnessº returnedºª unto² me;¹ and my counsellorsº and my lordsº soughtºª unto me;¹ and I was establishedºª in² my kingdom,º and excellentº majestyº was addedºª unto me. 37 Nowº Iº Nebuchadnezzarº praiseºª and extolºª and honourºª the Kingº of heaven,º allº whose² worksº [are] truth,º and his waysº judgment:º and those² that walkºª in prideº he is ableºª to abase.ºª
