Jeremiah 27:5

The Yoke of Nebuchadnezzar

4Give them a message from the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, to relay to their masters:5By My great power and outstretched arm, I made the earth and the men and beasts on the face of it, and I give it to whom I please.6So now I have placed all these lands under the authority of My servant Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon. I have even made the beasts of the field subject to him.
