25. Formal Translation And you they will drive away from among men, and your dwelling, your habitation, will be with the beasts of the field, and they will make you eat grass like oxen, and they will drench you with the dew of heaven, and seven times will pass over you, until you know that the Most High rules in the kingdom of mankind, and He gives it to whomever He wills. |
25. Dynamic Translation You will be driven away from people, and you will live and stay with the wild animals of the field; you will be fed grass like oxen, and you will be soaked by the dew of heaven. Then seven times will pass over you, until you recognize that the Most High has authority in the kingdom of humanity and that He gives that rule to anyone He chooses. |
