If a man dies, shall he revive? All the days of my service I will wait, until my change comes.

He breaks me down on every side, and I am gone; my hope He has uprooted like a tree.

And a Branch shall go out from the trunk of Jesse, and a Shoot shall grow out of his roots.

He shall cause those who come from Jacob to take root; Israel shall blossom and bud, and fill the face of the world with fruit.

Nevertheless leave the stump of its roots in the earth, even with a band of iron and bronze, in the grass of the field. And let it be wet with the dew of the heavens, and let his portion be with the beasts in the grass of the earth.

And whereas the king saw a watcher and a holy one coming down from the heavens, and saying, Cut the tree down, and destroy it. Yet leave the stump of its roots in the earth, even with a band of iron and bronze, in the grass of the field. And let him be wet with the dew of the heavens, and his portion with the beasts of the field, until seven times pass over him.

And you shall be driven from men, and your dwelling shall be with the beasts of the field. And you shall be fed with grass like oxen. And you shall be wet with dew of the heavens; and seven times shall pass over you until you know that the Most High is Ruler in the kingdom of men, and He gives it to whomever He desires.
