²⁵ You will be driven away from people and will live with the wild animals; you will eat grass like the ox and be drenched^(A) with the dew of heaven. Seven times will pass by for you until you acknowledge that the Most High^(B) is sovereign over all kingdoms on earth and gives them to anyone he wishes.^(C)

²³ “Your Majesty saw a holy one,^(A) a messenger, coming down from heaven and saying, ‘Cut down the tree and destroy it, but leave the stump, bound with iron and bronze, in the grass of the field, while its roots remain in the ground. Let him be drenched with the dew of heaven; let him live with the wild animals, until seven times pass by for him.’^(B)
