Lexicon :: Strong's G5310 - hypsistos

Melchizedek, king of Salem,[fn] brought out bread and wine; he was a priest to God Most High.

But Abram said to the king of Sodom, “I have raised my hand in an oath to the LORD, God Most High, Creator of heaven and earth,

the oracle of one who hears the sayings of God

and has knowledge from the Most High,

who sees a vision from the Almighty,

who falls into a trance with his eyes uncovered:

When the Most High gave the nations their inheritance[fn]

and divided the human race,

he set the boundaries of the peoples

according to the number of the people of Israel.[fn]

The LORD thundered from heaven;

the Most High made his voice heard.

Even now my witness is in heaven,

and my advocate is in the heights!

Dominion and dread belong to him,

the one who establishes harmony in his heights.

For what portion would I have from God above,

or what inheritance from the Almighty on high?

this would also be an iniquity deserving punishment,

for I would have denied God above.

I will thank the LORD for his righteousness;

I will sing about the name of the LORD Most High.

I will rejoice and boast about you;

I will sing about your name, Most High.

But I have trusted in your faithful love;

my heart will rejoice in your deliverance.

The LORD thundered from[fn] heaven;

the Most High made his voice heard.[fn]

For the king relies on the LORD;

through the faithful love of the Most High

he is not shaken.

There is a river —

its streams delight the city of God,

the holy dwelling place of the Most High.

For the LORD, the Most High, is awe-inspiring,

a great King over the whole earth.

“Offer a thanksgiving sacrifice to God,

and pay your vows to the Most High.

I call to God Most High,

to God who fulfills his purpose for me.[fn]

Your righteousness reaches the heights, God,

you who have done great things;

God, who is like you?

The wicked say, “How can God know?

Does the Most High know everything? ”

So I say, “I am grieved

that the right hand of the Most High has changed.”[fn]

But they continued to sin against him,

rebelling in the desert against the Most High.

They remembered that God was their rock,

the Most High God, their Redeemer.

But they rebelliously tested the Most High God,

for they did not keep his decrees.

I said, “You are gods;

you are all sons of the Most High.

May they know that you alone —

whose name is the LORD —

are the Most High over the whole earth.

And it will be said of Zion,

“This one and that one were born in her.”

The Most High himself will establish her.

The one who lives under the protection of the Most High

dwells in the shadow of the Almighty.

Because you have made the LORD ​— ​my refuge,

the Most High ​— ​your dwelling place,

It is good to give thanks to the LORD,

to sing praise to your name, Most High,

But you, LORD, are exalted forever.

For you, LORD,

are the Most High over the whole earth;

you are exalted above all the gods.

because they rebelled against God’s commands

and despised the counsel of the Most High.

Hallelujah!

Praise the LORD from the heavens;

praise him in the heights.

“I will ascend above the highest clouds;

I will make myself like the Most High.”

For the High and Exalted One,

who lives forever, whose name is holy, says this:

“I live in a high and holy place,

and with the oppressed and lowly of spirit,

to revive the spirit of the lowly

and revive the heart of the oppressed.

denying justice to a man

in the presence of the Most High,

Do not both adversity and good

come from the mouth of the Most High?

Nebuchadnezzar then approached the door of the furnace of blazing fire and called, “Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, you servants of the Most High God ​— ​come out! ” So Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego came out of the fire.

I am pleased to tell you about the miracles and wonders the Most High God has done for me.

“This word is by decree of the watchers,

and the decision is by command from the holy ones.

This is so that the living will know

that the Most High is ruler

over human kingdoms.

He gives them to anyone he wants

and sets the lowliest of people over them.

“This is the interpretation, Your Majesty, and this is the decree of the Most High that has been issued against my lord the king:

“You will be driven away from people to live with the wild animals, and you will feed on grass like cattle for seven periods of time, until you acknowledge that the Most High is ruler over human kingdoms, and he gives them to anyone he wants.”

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.

“Your Majesty, the Most High God gave sovereignty, greatness, glory, and majesty to your predecessor Nebuchadnezzar.

“He was driven away from people, his mind was like an animal’s, he lived with the wild donkeys, he was fed grass like cattle, and his body was drenched with dew from the sky until he acknowledged that the Most High God is ruler over human kingdoms and sets anyone he wants over them.

“But the holy ones of the Most High will receive the kingdom and possess it forever, yes, forever and ever.’
