Daniel 5:18

Daniel Interprets the Handwriting

17In response, Daniel said to the king, “You may keep your gifts for yourself and give your rewards to someone else. Nevertheless, I will read the inscription for the king and interpret it for him.18As for you, O king, the Most High God gave your father Nebuchadnezzar sovereignty and greatness, glory and honor.19Because of the greatness that He bestowed on him, the people of every nation and language trembled in fear before him. He killed whom he wished and kept alive whom he wished; he exalted whom he wished and humbled whom he wished.
