Jeremiah 27:6-7
27:6 I have at this time placed all these nations of yours under the power
of my servant,
King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon. I have even made all the wild animals subject to him.
27:7 All nations must serve him and his son and grandson
until the time comes for his own nation to fall.
Then many nations and great kings will in turn subjugate Babylon.

Daniel Interprets Nebuchadnezzar’s Dream
2:37 “You, O king, are the king of kings. The God of heaven has granted you sovereignty, power, strength, and honor.
2:38 Wherever human beings, wild animals, and birds of the sky live – he has given them into your power. He has given you authority over them all. You are the head of gold.
Daniel 4:25
4:25 You will be driven
from human society,
and you will live
with the wild animals. You will be fed
grass like oxen,
and you will become damp with the dew of the sky. Seven periods of time will pass by for you, before
you understand that the Most High is ruler over human kingdoms and gives them to whomever he wishes.
Daniel 4:32
4:32 You will be driven from human society, and you will live with the wild animals. You will be fed grass like oxen, and seven periods of time will pass by for you before
you understand that the Most High is ruler over human kingdoms and gives them to whomever he wishes.”
Daniel 5:19-21
5:19 Due to the greatness that he bestowed on him, all peoples, nations, and language groups were trembling with fear
before him. He killed whom he wished, he spared
whom he wished, he exalted whom he wished, and he brought low whom he wished.
5:20 And when his mind
became arrogant
and his spirit filled with pride, he was deposed from his royal throne and his honor was removed from him.
5:21 He was driven from human society, his mind
was changed to that of an animal, he lived
with the wild donkeys, he was fed grass like oxen, and his body became damp with the dew of the sky, until he came to understand that the most high God rules over human kingdoms, and he appoints over them whomever he wishes.
