23And as for what the king saw, a watcher and a holy one coming down from the heavens and saying, ‘Cut down the tree and destroy it, but leave the stump of its roots in the earth, and with a band of iron and bronze, in the grass of the field; and with the dew of the heavens let him be drenched, and with the animals of the field be his portion, until seven times pass over him’:
