Mazmur 9:2

9:2 I will be happy and rejoice in you!

I will sing praises to you, O sovereign One! ¹ 

Mazmur 92:1

Psalm 92 ² 

A psalm; a song for the Sabbath day.

92:1 It is fitting ³  to thank the Lord,

and to sing praises to your name, O sovereign One! ⁴ 

Mazmur 92:8

92:8 But you, O Lord, reign ⁵  forever!

Daniel 4:17

4:17 This announcement is by the decree of the sentinels;

this decision is by the pronouncement of the holy ones,

so that ⁶  those who are alive may understand

that the Most High has authority over human kingdoms, ⁷ 

and he bestows them on whomever he wishes.

He establishes over them even the lowliest of human beings.’

Daniel 4:25

4:25 You will be driven ⁸  from human society, ⁹  and you will live ¹⁰  with the wild animals. You will be fed ¹¹  grass like oxen, ¹²  and you will become damp with the dew of the sky. Seven periods of time will pass by for you, before ¹³  you understand that the Most High is ruler over human kingdoms and gives them to whomever he wishes.

Daniel 4:34

4:34 But at the end of the appointed time ¹⁴  I, Nebuchadnezzar, looked up ¹⁵  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.

Kisah Para Rasul 7:48

7:48 Yet the Most High ¹⁶  does not live in houses made by human hands, ¹⁷  as the prophet says,

[9:2]  ¹ tn Heb “[to] your name, O Most High.” God’s “name” refers metonymically to his divine characteristics as suggested by his name, in this case “Most High.” This divine title (עֶלְיוֹן, ’elyo/) pictures God as the exalted ruler of the universe who vindicates the innocent and judges the wicked. See especially Ps 47:2.

[92:1]  ² sn Psalm 92. The psalmist praises God because he defeats the wicked and vindicates his loyal followers.

[92:1]  ³ tn Or “good.”

[92:1]  ⁴ tn Traditionally “O Most High.”

[92:8]  ⁵ tn Heb “[are elevated] on high.”

[4:17]  ⁶ tc The present translation follows an underlying reading of עַל־דִּבְרַת (’al-divrat, “so that”) rather than MT עַד־דִּבְרַת (’ad-divrat, “until”).

[4:17]  ⁷ tn Aram “the kingdom of man”; NASB “the realm of mankind”; NCV “every kingdom on earth.”

[4:25]  ⁸ tn The Aramaic indefinite active plural is used here like the English passive. So also in v. 28, 29,32.

[4:25]  ⁹ tn Aram “from mankind.” So also in v. 32.

[4:25]  ¹⁰ tn Aram “your dwelling will be.” So also in v. 32.

[4:25]  ¹¹ tn Or perhaps “be made to eat.”

[4:25]  ¹² sn Nebuchadnezzar’s insanity has features that are associated with the mental disorder known as boanthropy, in which the person so afflicted imagines himself to be an ox or a similar animal and behaves accordingly.

[4:25]  ¹³ tn Aram “until.”

[4:34]  ¹⁴ tn Aram “days.”

[4:34]  ¹⁵ tn Aram “lifted up my eyes.”

[7:48]  ¹⁶ sn The title the Most High points to God’s majesty (Heb 7:1; Luke 1:32, 35; Acts 16:7).

[7:48]  ¹⁷ sn The phrase made by human hands is negative in the NT: Mark 14:58; Acts 17:24; Eph 2:11; Heb 9:11, 24. It suggests “man-made” or “impermanent.” The rebuke is like parts of the Hebrew scripture where the rebuke is not of the temple, but for making too much of it (1 Kgs 8:27; Isa 57:15; 1 Chr 6:8; Jer 7:1-34).
