Daniel 4:24-26

New International Reader's Version

²⁴ “Your Majesty, here is what your dream means. The Most High God has given an order against you. ²⁵ You will be driven away from people. You will live with the wild animals. You will eat grass just as an ox does. You will become wet with the dew of heaven. Seven periods of time will pass by for you. Then you will recognize that the Most High God rules over all kingdoms on earth. He gives them to anyone he wants. ²⁶ But he gave a command to leave the stump of the tree along with its roots. That means your kingdom will be given back to you. It will happen when you recognize that the God of heaven rules.
