¹⁸ Konge! Den høieste Gud gav Nebukadnesar, din far, riket og makten og æren og herligheten;

¹¹ Ja, like til hærens fyrste hevet det sig; det tok fra ham det stadige offer, og hans helligdoms bolig blev omstyrtet.

⁴ The Lord Yahweh has given me the tongue of those who are taught, that I may know how to sustain with words him who is weary: he wakens morning by morning, he wakens my ear to hear as those who are taught.

⁵ The Lord Yahweh has opened my ear, and I was not rebellious, neither turned away backward.
