King James Version (KJV) With Strong Codes

1. Nebuchadnezzar[H5020] the king,[H4430] unto all[H3606] people,[H5972] nations,[H524] and languages,[H3961] that[H1768] dwell[H1753] in all[H3606] the earth;[H772] Peace[H8001] be multiplied[H7680] unto you.

2. I thought it good[H8232] [H6925] to show[H2324] the signs[H852] and wonders[H8540] that[H1768] the high[H5943] God[H426] hath wrought[H5648] toward[H5974] me.

3. How[H4101] great[H7260] are his signs![H852] and how[H4101] mighty[H8624] are his wonders![H8540] his kingdom[H4437] is an everlasting[H5957] kingdom,[H4437] and his dominion[H7985] is from[H5974] generation[H1859] to generation.[H1859]

4. I[H576] Nebuchadnezzar[H5020] was[H1934] at rest[H7954] in mine house,[H1005] and flourishing[H7487] in my palace: [H1965]

5. I saw[H2370] a dream[H2493] which made me afraid,[H1763] and the thoughts[H2031] upon[H5922] my bed[H4903] and the visions[H2376] of my head[H7217] troubled[H927] me.

6. Therefore made[H4481] [H7761] I a decree[H2942] to bring in[H5924] all[H3606] the wise[H2445] men of Babylon[H895] before[H6925] me, that[H1768] they might make known[H3046] unto me the interpretation[H6591] of the dream.[H2493]

7. Then[H116] came in[H5954] the magicians,[H2749] the astrologers,[H826] the Chaldeans,[H3779] and the soothsayers:[H1505] and I[H576] told[H560] the dream[H2493] before[H6925] them; but they did not[H3809] make known[H3046] unto me the interpretation[H6591] thereof.

8. But at[H5705] the last[H318] Daniel[H1841] came in[H5954] before[H6925] me, whose[H1768] name[H8036] was Belteshazzar,[H1096] according to the name[H8036] of my god,[H426] and in whom[H1768] is the spirit[H7308] of the holy[H6922] gods:[H426] and before[H6925] him I told[H560] the dream,[H2493] saying,

9. O Belteshazzar,[H1096] master[H7229] of the magicians,[H2749] because[H1768] I[H576] know[H3046] that[H1768] the spirit[H7308] of the holy[H6922] gods[H426] is in thee, and no[H3809] [H3606] secret[H7328] troubleth[H598] thee, tell[H560] me the visions[H2376] of my dream[H2493] that[H1768] I have seen,[H2370] and the interpretation[H6591] thereof.

10. Thus were the visions[H2376] of mine head[H7217] in[H5922] my bed;[H4903] I saw,[H1934] [H2370] and behold[H431] a tree[H363] in the midst[H1459] of the earth,[H772] and the height[H7314] thereof was great.[H7690]

11. The tree[H363] grew,[H7236] and was strong,[H8631] and the height[H7314] thereof reached[H4291] unto heaven,[H8065] and the sight[H2379] thereof to the end[H5491] of all[H3606] the earth: [H772]

12. The leaves[H6074] thereof were fair,[H8209] and the fruit[H4] thereof much,[H7690] and in it was meat[H4203] for all:[H3606] the beasts[H2423] of the field[H1251] had shadow[H2927] under[H8460] it, and the fowls[H6853] of the heaven[H8065] dwelt[H1753] in the boughs[H6056] thereof, and all[H3606] flesh[H1321] was fed[H2110] of[H4481] it.

13. I saw[H1934] [H2370] in the visions[H2376] of my head[H7217] upon[H5922] my bed,[H4903] and, behold,[H431] a watcher[H5894] and a holy one[H6922] came down[H5182] from[H4481] heaven;[H8065]

14. He cried[H7123] aloud,[H2429] and said[H560] thus,[H3652] Hew down[H1414] the tree,[H363] and cut off[H7113] his branches,[H6056] shake off[H5426] his leaves,[H6074] and scatter[H921] his fruit:[H4] let the beasts[H2423] get away[H5111] from[H4481] under[H8479] it, and the fowls[H6853] from[H4481] his branches: [H6056]

15. Nevertheless[H1297] leave[H7662] the stump[H6136] of his roots[H8330] in the earth,[H772] even with a band[H613] of[H1768] iron[H6523] and brass,[H5174] in the tender grass[H1883] of[H1768] the field;[H1251] and let it be wet[H6647] with the dew[H2920] of heaven,[H8065] and let his portion[H2508] be with[H5974] the beasts[H2423] in the grass[H6211] of the earth: [H772]

16. Let his heart[H3825] be changed[H8133] from[H4481] man's,[H606] and let a beast's[H2423] heart[H3825] be given[H3052] unto him; and let seven[H7655] times[H5732] pass[H2499] over[H5922] him.

17. This matter[H6600] is by the decree[H1510] of the watchers,[H5894] and the demand[H7595] by the word[H3983] of the holy ones:[H6922] to[H5705] the intent[H1701] that[H1768] the living[H2417] may know[H3046] that[H1768] the most High[H5943] ruleth[H7990] in the kingdom[H4437] of men,[H606] and giveth[H5415] it to whomsoever[H4479] [H1768] he will,[H6634] and setteth up[H6966] over[H5922] it the basest[H8215] of men.[H606]

18. This[H1836] dream[H2493] I[H576] king[H4430] Nebuchadnezzar[H5020] have seen.[H2370] Now thou,[H607] O Belteshazzar,[H1096] declare[H560] the interpretation[H6591] thereof, forasmuch as[H3606] [H6903] [H1768] all[H3606] the wise[H2445] men of my kingdom[H4437] are not able[H3202] [H3809] to make known[H3046] unto me the interpretation:[H6591] but thou[H607] art able;[H3546] for[H1768] the spirit[H7308] of the holy[H6922] gods[H426] is in thee.

19. Then[H116] Daniel,[H1841] whose[H1768] name[H8036] was Belteshazzar,[H1096] was astonished[H8075] for one[H2298] hour,[H8160] and his thoughts[H7476] troubled[H927] him. The king[H4430] spoke,[H6032] and said,[H560] Belteshazzar,[H1096] let not[H409] the dream,[H2493] or the interpretation[H6591] thereof, trouble[H927] thee. Belteshazzar[H1096] answered[H6032] and said,[H560] My lord,[H4756] the dream[H2493] be to them that hate[H8131] thee, and the interpretation[H6591] thereof to thine enemies.[H6146]

20. The tree[H363] that[H1768] thou sawest,[H2370] which[H1768] grew,[H7236] and was strong,[H8631] whose height[H7314] reached[H4291] unto the heaven,[H8065] and the sight[H2379] thereof to all[H3606] the earth;[H772]

21. Whose leaves[H6074] were fair,[H8209] and the fruit[H4] thereof much,[H7690] and in it was meat[H4203] for all;[H3606] under[H8460] which the beasts[H2423] of the field[H1251] dwelt,[H1753] and upon whose branches[H6056] the fowls[H6853] of the heaven[H8065] had their habitation: [H7932]

22. It[H1932] is thou,[H607] O king,[H4430] that[H1768] art grown[H7236] and become strong:[H8631] for thy greatness[H7238] is grown,[H7236] and reacheth[H4291] unto heaven,[H8065] and thy dominion[H7985] to the end[H5491] of the earth.[H772]

23. And whereas[H1768] the king[H4430] saw[H2370] a watcher[H5894] and a holy one[H6922] coming down[H5182] from[H4481] heaven,[H8065] and saying,[H560] Hew the tree down,[H1414] [H363] and destroy[H2255] it; yet[H1297] leave[H7662] the stump[H6136] of the roots[H8330] thereof in the earth,[H772] even with a band[H613] of[H1768] iron[H6523] and brass,[H5174] in the tender grass[H1883] of[H1768] the field;[H1251] and let it be wet[H6647] with the dew[H2920] of heaven,[H8065] and let his portion[H2508] be with[H5974] the beasts[H2423] of the field,[H1251] till[H5705] [H1768] seven[H7655] times[H5732] pass[H2499] over[H5922] him;

24. This[H1836] is the interpretation,[H6591] O king,[H4430] and this[H1932] is the decree[H1510] of the most High,[H5943] which[H1768] is come[H4291] upon[H5922] my lord[H4756] the king: [H4430]

25. That they shall drive[H2957] thee from[H4481] men,[H606] and thy dwelling[H4070] shall be[H1934] with[H5974] the beasts[H2423] of the field,[H1251] and they shall make thee to eat[H2939] grass[H6211] as oxen,[H8450] and they shall wet[H6647] thee with the dew[H4481] [H2920] of heaven,[H8065] and seven[H7655] times[H5732] shall pass[H2499] over[H5922] thee, till[H5705] [H1768] thou know[H3046] that[H1768] the most High[H5943] ruleth[H7990] in the kingdom[H4437] of men,[H606] and giveth[H5415] it to whomsoever[H4479] [H1768] he will.[H6634]

26. And whereas[H1768] they commanded[H560] to leave[H7662] the stump[H6136] of[H1768] the tree[H363] roots;[H8330] thy kingdom[H4437] shall be sure[H7011] unto thee, after that[H4481] [H1768] thou shalt have known[H3046] that[H1768] the heavens[H8065] do rule.[H7990]

27. Wherefore,[H3861] O king,[H4430] let my counsel[H4431] be acceptable[H8232] unto[H5922] thee, and break[H6562] off thy sins[H2408] by righteousness,[H6665] and thine iniquities[H5758] by showing mercy[H2604] to the poor;[H6033] if[H2006] it may be[H1934] a lengthening[H754] of thy tranquillity.[H7963]

28. All this[H3606] came[H4291] upon[H5922] the king[H4430] Nebuchadnezzar.[H5020]

29. At the end[H7118] of twelve[H8648] [H6236] months[H3393] he walked[H1934] [H1981] in[H5922] the palace[H1965] of the kingdom[H4437] of[H1768] Babylon.[H895]

30. The king[H4430] spoke,[H6032] and said,[H560] Is not[H3809] this[H1668] great[H7229] Babylon,[H895] that[H1768] I[H576] have built[H1124] for the house[H1005] of the kingdom[H4437] by the might[H8632] of my power,[H2632] and for the honor[H3367] of my majesty?[H1923]

31. While[H5751] the word[H4406] was in the king's[H4430] mouth,[H6433] there fell[H5308] a voice[H7032] from[H4481] heaven,[H8065] saying, O king[H4430] Nebuchadnezzar,[H5020] to thee it is spoken;[H560] The kingdom[H4437] is departed[H5709] from[H4481] thee.

32. And they shall drive[H2957] thee from[H4481] men,[H606] and thy dwelling[H4070] shall be with[H5974] the beasts[H2423] of the field:[H1251] they shall make thee to eat[H2939] grass[H6211] as oxen,[H8450] and seven[H7655] times[H5732] shall pass[H2499] over[H5922] thee, until[H5705] [H1768] thou know[H3046] that[H1768] the most High[H5943] ruleth[H7990] in the kingdom[H4437] of men,[H606] and giveth[H5415] it to whomsoever[H4479] [H1768] he will.[H6634]

33. The same hour[H8160] was the thing[H4406] fulfilled[H5487] upon[H5922] Nebuchadnezzar:[H5020] and he was driven[H2957] from[H4481] men,[H606] and did eat[H399] grass[H6211] as oxen,[H8450] and his body[H1655] was wet[H6647] with the dew[H4481] [H2920] of heaven,[H8065] till[H5705] [H1768] his hairs[H8177] were grown[H7236] like eagles'[H5403] feathers, and his nails[H2953] like birds'[H6853] claws.

34. And at the end[H7118] of the days[H3118] I[H576] Nebuchadnezzar[H5020] lifted up[H5191] mine eyes[H5870] unto heaven,[H8065] and mine understanding[H4486] returned[H8421] unto[H5922] me, and I blessed[H1289] the most High,[H5943] and I praised[H7624] and honored[H1922] him that liveth[H2417] forever,[H5957] whose[H1768] dominion[H7985] is an everlasting[H5957] dominion,[H7985] and his kingdom[H4437] is from[H5974] generation[H1859] to generation: [H1859]

35. And all[H3606] the inhabitants[H1753] of the earth[H772] are reputed[H2804] as nothing:[H3809] and he doeth[H5648] according to his will[H6634] in the army[H2429] of heaven,[H8065] and among the inhabitants[H1753] of the earth:[H772] and none[H3809] can[H383] stay[H4223] his hand,[H3028] or say[H560] unto him, What[H4101] doest[H5648] thou?

36. At the same time[H2166] my reason[H4486] returned[H8421] unto[H5922] me; and for the glory[H3367] of my kingdom,[H4437] mine honor[H1923] and brightness[H2122] returned[H8421] unto[H5922] me; and my counselors[H1907] and my lords[H7261] sought[H1156] unto me; and I was established[H8627] in[H5922] my kingdom,[H4437] and excellent[H3493] majesty[H7238] was added[H3255] unto me.

37. Now[H3705] I[H576] Nebuchadnezzar[H5020] praise[H7624] and extol[H7313] and honor[H1922] the King[H4430] of heaven,[H8065] all[H3606] whose[H1768] works[H4567] are truth,[H7187] and his ways[H735] judgment:[H1780] and those[H1768] that walk[H1981] in pride[H1467] he is able[H3202] to abase.[H8214]
