Daniel 2:14-20

14Then Daniel replied with discretion and wisdom to Arioch, the captain of the king’s bodyguard, who had gone out to execute the wise men of Babylon;

15he said to Arioch, the king’s captain, “Why is the decree from the king so harsh and urgent?” Then Arioch explained the matter to Daniel.

16So Daniel went in and asked the king to appoint a date and give him time, so that he might reveal to the king the interpretation of the dream.

17Then Daniel returned to his house and discussed the matter with Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah, his companions,

18in order that they might seek compassion from the God of heaven regarding this secret, so that Daniel and his companions would not be executed with the rest of the wise men of Babylon.

19Then the secret was revealed to Daniel in a vision of the night, and Daniel blessed the God of heaven.

20Daniel answered, “Blessed be the name of God forever and ever, For wisdom and power belong to Him.
