O thou king, the most high God gave Nebuchadnezzar thy father a kingdom, and majesty, and glory, and honour:

Then Peter, filled with the Holy Ghost, said unto them, Ye rulers of the people, and elders of Israel,

Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even by him doth this man stand here before you whole.

Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time:

And that servant, which knew his lord's will, and prepared not himself, neither did according to his will, shall be beaten with many stripes.

If ye know these things, happy are ye if ye do them.

But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble.

Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin.
