Daniel 2:24-30

24

ThereforeH6903H1836 DanielH1841 wentH5954 toH5922 AriochH746, whomH1768 the kingH4430 had appointedH4483 to destroyH7 the wise menH2445 of BabylonH895, and saidH236H3652H560 to him, “Do notH409 executeH7 the wise menH2445 of BabylonH895! Bring meH5954 beforeH6925 the kingH4430, and I will giveH2324 himH4430 the interpretationH6591.”

25AriochH746 hastilyH927H116 broughtH5954 DanielH1841 beforeH6925 the kingH4430H3652 and saidH560 to him, “I have foundH7912 a manH1400 amongH4481 the exilesH1123H1547 from JudahH3061 whoH1768 will tellH3046 the kingH4430 the interpretationH6591.”

26The kingH4430 respondedH6032H560 to DanielH1841, whoseH1768 nameH8036 was BelteshazzarH1096H383, “Are you ableH3546 to tell meH3046 whatH1768 I sawH2370 in the dreamH2493, as well as its interpretationH6591?”

27DanielH1841H6925 answeredH6032 the kingH4430H560, “NoH3809 wise manH2445, enchanterH826, mediumH2749, or magicianH1505 canH3202 explainH2324 to the kingH4430 the mysteryH7328 of whichH1768 he inquiresH7593. 28ButH1297 there isH383 a GodH426 in heavenH8065 who revealsH1541 mysteriesH7328, and He has made knownH3046 to KingH4430 NebuchadnezzarH5020 whatH4101H1768 will happenH1934 in the latterH320 daysH3118. Your dreamH2493 and the visionsH2376 that came into your mindH7217 as you lay onH5922 your bedH4903 were theseH1836H1932:

29As youH607 lay onH5922 your bedH4903, O kingH4430, your thoughtsH7476 turnedH5559 toH4101H1768 the futureH1934H311H1836, and the RevealerH1541 of MysteriesH7328 made known to youH3046 whatH4101H1768 will happenH1934. 30And to meH576 thisH1836 mysteryH7328 has been revealedH1541, notH3809 becauseH1768 I haveH383 more wisdomH2452 thanH4481 any manH3606 aliveH2417, butH3861 in order thatH5922H1701H1768 the interpretationH6591 might be made knownH3046 to the kingH4430, and that you may understandH3046 the thoughtsH7476 of your mindH3825.
