Daniel 2:38

2:38 Wherever human beings, ¹  wild animals, ²  and birds of the sky live – he has given them into your power. ³  He has given you authority over them all. You are the head of gold.

Daniel 2:45

2:45 You saw that a stone was cut from a mountain, but not by human hands; it smashed the iron, bronze, clay, silver, and gold into pieces. The great God has made known to the king what will occur in the future. ⁴  The dream is certain, and its interpretation is reliable.”

Daniel 4:35

4:35 All the inhabitants of the earth are regarded as nothing. ⁵ 

He does as he wishes with the army of heaven

and with those who inhabit the earth.

No one slaps ⁶  his hand

and says to him, ‘What have you done?’

Daniel 3:15

3:15 Now if you are ready, when you hear the sound of the horn, flute, zither, trigon, harp, pipes, and all kinds of music, you must bow down and pay homage to the statue that I had made. If you don’t pay homage to it, you will immediately be thrown into the midst of the furnace of blazing fire. Now, who is that god who can rescue you from my power?” ⁷ 

Daniel 5:23

5:23 Instead, you have exalted yourself against the Lord of heaven. You brought before you the vessels from his temple, and you and your nobles, together with your wives and concubines, drank wine from them. You praised the gods of silver, gold, bronze, iron, wood, and stone – gods ⁸  that cannot see or hear or comprehend! But you have not glorified the God who has in his control ⁹  your very breath and all your ways!
