Daniel 2:38

God has given you all people (children of men), the wild animals of the earth, and the birds of the sky. You rule over them wherever they live. You are the head of gold.
[The uppermost and first part of the statue is identified with King Nebuchadnezzar himself and his kingdom. The Neo-Babylonian Empire lasted for just under 100 years, until 539 BC. In the interpretation, the terms king and kingdom are used synonymously. It is not possible to have a kingdom without a king, nor a king without a kingdom.]
