Now I, Nebuchadnezzar, praise and exalt and glorify the King of heaven, for all His works are true and all His ways are just. And He is able to humble those who walk in pride.
The proud look of man will be humbled, and the loftiness of men brought low; the LORD alone will be exalted in that day.
So the pride of man will be brought low, and the loftiness of men will be humbled; the LORD alone will be exalted in that day,
Who can withstand His indignation? Who can endure His burning anger? His wrath is poured out like fire; even rocks are shattered before Him.
And they began to shout, “This is the voice of a god, not a man!”
Now I know that the LORD is greater than all other gods, for He did this when they treated Israel with arrogance.”
But He gives us more grace. This is why it says: “God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble.”
When he has filled his stomach, God will vent His fury upon him, raining it down on him as he eats.
So He poured out on them His furious anger and the fierceness of battle. It enveloped them in flames, but they did not understand; it consumed them, but they did not take it to heart.
For a fire has been kindled by My anger, and it burns to the depths of Sheol; it consumes the earth and its produce, and scorches the foundations of the mountains.
It hurls itself against him without mercy as he flees headlong from its power.
But I have raised you up for this very purpose, that I might display My power to you, and that My name might be proclaimed in all the earth.
