DAN 5:18 O thou king, the most high God gave Nebuchadnezzar thy father
a kingdom, and majesty, and glory, and honour:
DAN 5:19 And for the majesty that he gave him, all people, nations, and
languages, trembled and feared before him: whom he would he slew; and
whom he would he kept alive; and whom he would he set up; and whom he
would he put down.

The second excerpt represents the element of Fire. It speaks of emotional influences and base passions, and is drawn from King James Bible: LAM 4:7 Her Nazarites were purer than snow, they were whiter than milk,
they were more ruddy in body than rubies, their polishing was of
sapphire:
LAM 4:8 Their visage is blacker than a coal; they are not known in the
streets: their skin cleaveth to their bones; it is withered, it is
become like a stick.
LAM 4:9 They that be slain with the sword are better than they that be
slain with hunger: for these pine away, stricken through for want of the
fruits of the field.
LAM 4:10 The hands of the pitiful women have sodden their own children:
they were their meat in the destruction of the daughter of my people.
