Daniel 4:16 in Context — Daniel 4
14 Il cria avec force et parla ainsi: Abattez l’arbre, et coupez ses branches; secouez le feuillage, et dispersez les fruits; que les bêtes fuient de dessous, et les oiseaux du milieu de ses branches!
15 Mais laissez en terre le tronc où se trouvent les racines, et liez-le avec des chaînes de fer et d’airain, parmi l’herbe des champs. Qu’il soit trempé de la rosée du ciel, et qu’il ait, comme les bêtes, l’herbe de la terre pour partage.
16 Son cœur d’homme lui sera ôté, et un cœur de bête lui sera donné; et sept temps passeront sur lui.
17 Cette sentence est un décret de ceux qui veillent, cette résolution est un ordre des saints, afin que les vivants sachent que le Très-Haut domine sur le règne des hommes, qu’il le donne à qui il lui plaît, et qu’il y élève le plus vil des hommes.
18 Voilà le songe que j’ai eu, moi, le roi Nebucadnetsar. Toi, Beltschatsar, donnes-en l’explication, puisque tous les sages de mon royaume ne peuvent me la donner; toi, tu le peux, car tu as en toi l’esprit des dieux saints.
