Daniel 4:35

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.

John Wesley's Notes

<< Daniel 4:34

Daniel 4:36 >>

As nothing - A due consideration of God's infinite greatness, makes the creature appear as nothing; creatures are nothing to help, nothing to hurt, nothing in duration, nothing solid and substantial, nothing without dependence, and influence, and support from God. His will - Being the Lord of hosts, and the only absolute and universal monarch of the world.
