Et il fut chassé d'entre les hommes, et son cœur fut rendu semblable à celui des bêtes, et sa demeure fut avec les ânes sauvages; on le paissait d'herbe comme les bœufs, et son corps fut arrosé de la rosée des cieux, jusqu'à ce qu'il connût que le Dieu souverain a puissance sur les Royaumes des hommes, et qu'il y établit ceux qu'il lui plaît.
Il fut chassé du milieu des enfants des hommes; son cœur fut rendu semblable à celui des bêtes, et son habitation fut avec les ânes sauvages; il fut nourri d'herbe comme les bœufs, et son corps fut trempé de la rosée du ciel, jusqu'à ce qu'il reconnût que le Dieu souverain domine sur le règne des hommes, et qu'il y établit qui il lui plaît.
et il fut chassé du milieu des fils des hommes, et son coeur fut rendu semblable à celui des bêtes, et sa demeure fut avec les ânes sauvages; on le nourrit d'herbe comme les boeufs, et son corps fut baigné de la rosée des cieux, jusqu'à ce qu'il connut que le Dieu Très-haut domine sur le royaume des hommes, et qu'il y établit qui il veut.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And he was driven from the sons of men,.... From their company, and from conversation with them; his madness was of that kind, that he chose rather to be with beasts than men; it drove him from men, and made him more desirous of being with beasts; or it was so intolerable, that his family, friends, and courtiers, were obliged to remove him from them, from his palace and court, and from all conversation with men, which he was incapable of through his frenzy and madness:
and his heart was made like the beasts; to have the same affections and desires as they have; to crave the same things they did, and like what they liked, and live as they lived: or, "he put his heart with the beasts" x; either Nebuchadnezzar himself chose to be with them, and delighted in a beastly life; or God did it; he put such a heart into him, or so disposed it, that it became brutish; though to read the words impersonally, as before, seems best:
and his dwelling was with the wild asses; in a wilderness or field; or rather in some enclosed place, in one of his parks, where such creatures were kept for hunting; among these he dwelt, as being like them, having lost the use of his reason, and so was become stupid and sottish as they:
and they fed him with grass like oxen; as they are fed, and which he chose above any other food:
and his body was wet with the dew of heaven; being without clothes, and lying naked in some open place all night:
till he knew that the most high God ruled in the kingdom of men, and that he appointeth over it whomsoever he will: till he came to his senses, and was brought to see and own the sovereign dominion of the one, true, and living God, over all the kingdoms of the earth, and that they are at his dispose; Daniel 4:32.
