I will give to the Lord the thanks due to his righteousness, and I will sing praise to the name of the Lord, the Most High.
I will be glad and exult in you; I will sing praise to your name, O Most High.
The Lord has made known his salvation; he has revealed his righteousness in the sight of the nations.
My mouth will tell of your righteous acts, of your deeds of salvation all the day, for their number is past my knowledge. With the mighty deeds of the Lord God I will come; I will remind them of your righteousness, yours alone.
Full of splendor and majesty is his work, and his righteousness endures forever.
At the end of the days I, Nebuchadnezzar, lifted my eyes to heaven, and my reason returned to me, and I blessed the Most High, and praised and honored him who lives forever, for his dominion is an everlasting dominion, and his kingdom endures from generation to generation;
but you, O Lord, are on high forever.
Yet the Most High does not dwell in houses made by hands, as the prophet says,
Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, O God, O God of my salvation, and my tongue will sing aloud of your righteousness.
Then my tongue shall tell of your righteousness and of your praise all the day long.
They shall pour forth the fame of your abundant goodness and shall sing aloud of your righteousness.
A Psalm. A Song for the Sabbath. It is good to give thanks to the Lord, to sing praises to your name, O Most High;
that you shall be driven from among men, and your dwelling shall be with the beasts of the field. You shall be made to eat grass like an ox, and you shall be wet with the dew of heaven, and seven periods of time shall pass over you, till you know that the Most High rules the kingdom of men and gives it to whom he will.
The sentence is by the decree of the watchers, the decision by the word of the holy ones, to the end that the living may know that the Most High rules the kingdom of men and gives it to whom he will and sets over it the lowliest of men.’
