21. Formal Translation And he was driven away from the sons of men, and his mind was made like that of the beasts, and with the wild donkeys was his dwelling. They would feed him grass like oxen, and his body was drenched with the dew of heaven, until he knew that the Most High God {Elaha Illa'a, Supreme Ruler} rules the kingdom of men and appoints over it whomever He wills. |
21. Dynamic Translation He was sent away from people, and his mind became like that of an animal; his dwelling was with the wild donkeys. They fed him grass like oxen, and his body was soaked with dew from heaven until he understood that the Most High God {Elaha Illa'a, Ultimate King} rules over human kingdoms and appoints whomever He wants. |
