Daniel 4:34

4:34 But at the end of the appointed time ¹  I, Nebuchadnezzar, looked up ²  toward heaven, and my sanity returned to me.

I extolled the Most High,

and I praised and glorified the one who lives forever.

For his authority is an everlasting authority,

and his kingdom extends from one generation to the next.

Daniel 9:18

9:18 Listen attentively, ³  my God, and hear! Open your eyes and look on our desolated ruins ⁴  and the city called by your name. ⁵  For it is not because of our own righteous deeds that we are praying to you, ⁶  but because your compassion is abundant.
