34 (A)At the end of the days I, Nebuchadnezzar, lifted my eyes to heaven, and (B)my reason returned to me, and I blessed the Most High, and praised and honored (C)him who lives forever,

(D)for his dominion is an everlasting dominion,
    and (E)his kingdom endures from generation to generation;
35 (F)all the inhabitants of the earth are accounted as nothing,
    and (G)he does according to his will among the host of heaven
    and among the inhabitants of the earth;
(H)and none can stay his hand

(M)My counselors and (N)my lords sought me, and I was established in my kingdom, and still more greatness was (O)added to me. 37 Now I, Nebuchadnezzar, (P)praise and extol and honor the (Q)King of heaven, (R)for all his works are right and his ways are just; and (S)those who walk in pride he is able to humble.
