Daniel 4:35

33 That very hour the word was fulfilled concerning Nebuchadnezzar; he was driven from men and ate grass like oxen; his body was wet with the dew of heaven till his hair had grown like eagles’ feathers and his nails like birds’ claws.

Nebuchadnezzar Praises God

34 And ^aat the end of the time I, Nebuchadnezzar, lifted my eyes to heaven, and my understanding returned to me; and I blessed the Most High and praised and honored Him ^bwho lives forever:
For His dominion is ^can everlasting dominion,
And His kingdom is from generation to generation.

35 ^aAll the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing;
^bHe does according to His will in the army of heaven
And among the inhabitants of the earth.
^cNo one can restrain His hand
Or say to Him, ^d“What have You done?”

36 At the same time my reason returned to me, ^aand for the glory of my kingdom, my honor and splendor returned to me. My counselors and nobles resorted to me, I was ^brestored to my kingdom, and excellent majesty was ^cadded to me.

37 Now I, Nebuchadnezzar, ^apraise and extol and honor the King of heaven, ^ball of whose works are truth, and His ways justice. ^cAnd those who walk in pride He is able to put down.

What Does Daniel 4:35 Mean?

Daniel 4:35

The Bible declares quite clearly that God is not only well aware of what is taking place, but He also has the power, wisdom, and love to either stop it at any time or let it run its course. In fact, Scripture plainly shows God actively—indeed proactively, not merely permissively—involved in earthly matters. God has not gone "way off somewhere," letting things simply proceed naturally.
