Daniel 2:12-18
This response madeH6903H1836 the kingH4430 soH7690 angryH1149 and furiousH7108 that he gave ordersH560 to destroyH7 allH3606 the wise menH2445 of BabylonH895. 13So the decreeH1882 went outH5312 that the wise menH2445 were to be executedH6992, and men went to look forH1156 DanielH1841 and his friendsH2269 to execute themH6992.
14WhenH116 AriochH746, the commanderH7229 of the king’sH4430H1768 guardH2877, went outH5312 to executeH6992 the wise menH2445 of BabylonH895, DanielH1841 respondedH8421 with discretionH5843 and tactH2942. 15“WhyH5922H4101 is the decreeH1882 fromH4481H6925 the kingH4430 so harshH2685?” he askedH6032H560.
ThenH116 AriochH746 explainedH3046 the situationH4406 to DanielH1841. 16So DanielH1841 went inH5954 and askedH1156H4481 the kingH4430H1768 to giveH5415 him some timeH2166, so that he could giveH2324 him the interpretationH6591.
17ThenH116 DanielH1841 returnedH236 to his houseH1005 and explainedH3046 the matterH4406 to his friendsH2269 HananiahH2608, MishaelH4333, and AzariahH5839, 18urging them to pleadH1156 for mercyH7359H4481 fromH6925 the GodH426 of heavenH8065 concerningH5922 thisH1836 mysteryH7328, so thatH1768 DanielH1841 and his friendsH2269 would notH3809 be killedH7 withH5974 the restH7606 of the wiseH2445 men of BabylonH895.
