Daniel, 4

34. And at the end of the days I Nebuchadnezzar lifted up mine eyes unto heaven, and mine understanding returned unto me, and I blessed the most High, and I praised and honoured him that liveth for ever, whose dominion [is] an everlasting dominion, and his kingdom [is] from generation to generation:

Versets liés à Daniel, 4:

Daniel 4 tells the story of King Nebuchadnezzar and a dream he had about his fall of power. The chapter talks about God's sovereignty and how pride can lead to fall. Below are five verses related to these themes:

Psalm 75:6-7: "Neither the East, nor the West nor the desert comes exaltation. But God is the judge: to one slaughter, and to another exalts." This verse talks about exaltation not coming from ourselves, but of God. It is a message that Nebuchadnezzar has learned throughout the chapter.

Proverbs 16:18: "Superb precedes ruin, and the haughtiness of the Spirit precedes the fall." This verse emphasizes the theme of pride leading to the fall, which happened to Nebuchadnezzar.

James 4:6: "But he gives greater grace. So he says, God resists the superb, but gives grace to the humble." This verse shows the importance of humility before God and how it resists those who are proud.

Proverbs 29:23: "Man's pride will slaughter him, but honor will support the humble of spirit." This verse talks about how pride can lead to fall, but humility can bring honor.

Isaiah 2:11: "The haughty eyes of men will be slaughtered, and His haughtiness will be humiliated; only the Lord will be exalted that day." This verse talks about how sovereignty belongs to God and how proud will be humiliated, which is an important lesson for Nebuchadnezzar and for all of us.
