26 At the end of twelve months, as he was walking on the roof of the royal palace, 27 the king said, “How magnificent Babylon is! Was it not built as a royal residence by my mighty strength and for my majestic glory?”[a]

“To you, King Nebuchadnezzar, it is decreed:
your kingdom has been taken from you.
