Daniel 4:34-37
But at the end of those days, I, Nebuchadnezzar, looked up to heaven, and my sanity returned to me. Then I praised the Most High and honored and glorified Him who lives forever: For His dominion is an everlasting dominion, and His kingdom is from generation to generation.All the inhabitants of the earth are counted as nothing, and He does what He wants with the army of heaven and the inhabitants of the earth. There is no one who can hold back His hand or say to Him,“ What have You done?”At that time my sanity returned to me, and my majesty and splendor returned to me for the glory of my kingdom. My advisers and my nobles sought me out, I was reestablished over my kingdom, and even more greatness came to me.Now I, Nebuchadnezzar, praise, exalt, and glorify the King of heaven, because all His works are true and His ways are just. He is able to humble those who walk in pride.

Mark 7:32-37
They brought to Him a deaf man who also had a speech difficulty, and begged Jesus to lay His hand on him.So He took him away from the crowd privately. After putting His fingers in the man’s ears and spitting, He touched his tongue.Then, looking up to heaven, He sighed deeply and said to him,“ Ephphatha!”( that is,“ Be opened!”).Immediately his ears were opened, his speech difficulty was removed, and he began to speak clearly.Then He ordered them to tell no one, but the more He would order them, the more they would proclaim it.They were extremely astonished and said,“ He has done everything well! He even makes deaf people hear, and people unable to speak, talk!”

Will the dust praise You? Will it proclaim Your truth?Lord, listen and be gracious to me; Lord, be my helper.”You turned my lament into dancing; You removed my sackcloth and clothed me with gladness,so that I can sing to You and not be silent. Lord my God, I will praise You forever.
