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.

¹³ He will have pity on the poor and needy. He will save the souls of the needy.

¹⁴ He will redeem their soul from oppression and violence. Their blood will be precious in his sight.

¹⁵ They shall live, and to him shall be given of the gold of Sheba. Men shall pray for him continually. They shall bless him all day long.

¹⁶ Abundance of grain shall be throughout the land. Its fruit sways like Lebanon. Let it flourish, thriving like the grass of the field.
