KJV - Daniel 4:23
And whereas the king saw a watcher and an holy one coming down from heaven, and saying, Hew the tree down, and destroy it; yet leave the stump of the roots thereof in the earth, even with a band of iron and brass, in the tender grass of the field; and let it be wet with the dew of heaven, and let his portion be with the beasts of the field, till seven times pass over him;
And since the king saw a watcher and a holy one coming down from heaven, saying to cut down the tree and destroy it, but leave its root stump in the ground with iron and brass bands, in the grass of the field. It should also be watered by heaven's dew and share its portion with the field animals until seven periods pass over it.
