Daniel 4:3

4:3 “How great are his signs!

How mighty are his wonders!

His kingdom will last forever, 1 

and his authority continues from one generation to the next.”

Daniel 5:20

5:20 And when his mind 2  became arrogant 3  and his spirit filled with pride, he was deposed from his royal throne and his honor was removed from him.

1 tn Aram “his kingdom is an everlasting kingdom.”

2 tn Aram “heart.”

3 sn The point of describing Nebuchadnezzar as arrogant is that he had usurped divine prerogatives, and because of his immense arrogance God had dealt decisively with him.
