Daniel 2:14-23
14ThenH116 DanielH1841 returnedH8421 answer with counsel and prudence to AriochH746 the captain of the king’sH4430 guard, who was gone forth to slay the wiseH2445 men of BabylonH895; 15he answered and saidH560 to AriochH746 the king’sH4430 captain, Wherefore is the decreeH1882 so urgent from the kingH4430? ThenH116 AriochH746 madeH3046 the thing knownH3046 to DanielH1841. 16And DanielH1841 went in, and desired of the kingH4430 that he would appoint him a timeH2166, and he would show the kingH4430 the interpretationH6591.
17ThenH116 DanielH1841 went to his houseH1005, and madeH3046 the thing knownH3046 to HananiahH2608, Mishael, and Azariah, his companions: 18that they would desire mercies of the GodH426 of heavenH8065 concerningH5922 this secret; that DanielH1841 and his companions should not perish with the restH7606 of the wiseH2445 men of BabylonH895. 19ThenH116 was the secret revealedH1541 unto DanielH1841 in a visionH2376 of the nightH3916. ThenH116 DanielH1841 blessed the GodH426 of heavenH8065. 20DanielH1841 answered and saidH560, Blessed be the nameH8036 of GodH426 for everH5957 and everH5957; for wisdomH2452 and might are his. 21And he changeth the timesH2166 and the seasons; he removeth kingsH4430, and setteth up kingsH4430; he giveth wisdomH2452 unto the wiseH2445, and knowledge to them that have understanding; 22he revealeth the deep and secret things; he knoweth what is in the darkness, and the light dwelleth with him. 23I thank thee, and praise thee, O thou GodH426 of my fathersH2, who hast given me wisdomH2452 and might, and hast nowH3705 madeH3046 knownH3046 unto me what we desired of thee; for thou hast madeH3046 knownH3046 unto us the king’sH4430 matterH4406.
