That they shall drive thee from men, and thy dwelling shall be with the beasts of the field, and they shall make thee to eat grass as oxen, and they shall wet thee with the dew of heaven, and seven times shall pass over thee, till thou know that the most High ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will.

Verse 25 is found in chapter 4 of Daniel. Daniel explains that the cutting down of the tree represents the king’s humiliation and the temporary loss of his human position. However, the preserved stump introduces a decisive note of hope: judgment does not necessarily mean final destruction. Daniel concludes by urging the king to practice justice and mercy toward the poor. The proper response to divine warning is not merely fear, but concrete repentance.

Dies alles widerfuhr dem König Nebukadnezar.
Que te echarán de entre los hombres, y con las bestias del campo será tu morada, y con hierba del campo te apacentarán como a los bueyes, y con rocío del cielo serás bañado; y siete tiempos pasarán sobre ti, hasta que entiendas que el Altísimo se enseñorea en el reino de los hombres, y que a quien él quisiere lo dará.
Te expulsarán de entre los hombres y tu morada estará con las fieras del campo. Te darán hierba para comer como a los bueyes y te empaparán con el rocío del cielo. Pasarán sobre ti siete períodos de tiempo, hasta que reconozcas que el Altísimo gobierna el reino de los hombres y se lo da a quien quiere.
On te chassera du milieu des hommes, tu auras ta demeure avec les bêtes des champs, et l'on te donnera comme aux boeufs de l'herbe à manger; tu seras trempé de la rosée du ciel, et sept temps passeront sur toi, jusqu'à ce que tu saches que le Très-Haut domine sur le règne des hommes et qu'il le donne à qui il lui plaît.
Tu sarai scacciato d’infra gli uomini, e la tua dimora sarà con le bestie della campagna, e pascerai l’erba come i buoi, e sarai bagnato della rugiada del cielo, e sette stagioni passeranno sopra te, infino a tanto che tu riconosca che l’Altissimo signoreggia sopra il regno degli uomini, e ch’egli lo dà a cui gli piace.
Serás tirado dentre os homens, e a tua morada será com os animais do campo, e te farão comer erva como os bois, e serás molhado do orvalho do céu; e passar-se-ão sete tempos por cima de ti; até que conheças que o Altíssimo tem domínio sobre o reino dos homens, e o dá a quem quer.
你必被趕出離開世人,與野地的走獸同住,吃草如牛,讓天上的露水滴濕,且要經過七個時期,直等到你知道至高者在人的國中掌權,要將國賜給誰就賜給誰。
