30 With all his reign H4438 and his might, H1369 and the times H6256 that went over H5674 him, and over Israel, H3478 and over all the kingdoms H4467 of the countries. H776
And whereas the king H4430 saw H2370 a watcher H5894 and an holy one H6922 coming down H5182 from H4481 heaven, H8065 and saying, H560 Hew H1414 the tree H363 down, H1414 and destroy H2255 it; yet H1297 leave H7662 the stump H6136 of the roots H8330 thereof in the earth, H772 even with a band H613 of iron H6523 and brass, H5174 in the tender grass H1883 of the field; H1251 and let it be wet H6647 with the dew H2920 of heaven, H8065 and let his portion H2508 be with H5974 the beasts H2423 of the field, H1251 till H5705 seven H7655 times H5732 pass H2499 over H5922 him;
That they shall drive H2957 thee from H4481 men, H606 and thy dwelling H4070 shall be H1934 with H5974 the beasts H2423 of the field, H1251 and they shall make thee to eat H2939 grass H6211 as oxen, H8450 and they shall wet H6647 thee with the dew H2920 of heaven, H8065 and seven H7655 times H5732 shall pass H2499 over H5922 thee, till H5705 thou know H3046 that the most High H5943 ruleth H7990 in the kingdom H4437 of men, H606 and giveth H5415 it to whomsoever H4479 he will. H6634
Now the rest H3499 of the acts H1697 of Jeroboam, H3379 and all that he did, H6213 and his might, H1369 how he warred, H3898 and how he recovered H7725 Damascus, H1834 and Hamath, H2574 which belonged to Judah, H3063 for Israel, H3478 are they not written H3789 in the book H5612 of the chronicles H1697 H3117 of the kings H4428 of Israel?
