Daniel 2:16-23

16And Daniel went in, and requested of the king that he would give him time, that he might shew the king the interpretation.

17Then Daniel went to his house, and made the thing known to Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah, his companions;

18that they would desire mercies of the 1God of the heavens concerning this secret; that Daniel and his companions should not perish with the rest of the wise men of Babylon.

19Then was the secret revealed unto Daniel in a night vision. Then Daniel blessed the 2God of the heavens.

20Daniel answered and said, Blessed be the name of 3God for ever and ever; For wisdom and might are his.

21And it is he that changeth times and seasons; He deposeth kings, and setteth up kings; He giveth wisdom to the wise, And knowledge to them that know understanding.

22It is he that revealeth the deep and secret things; He knoweth what is in the darkness, and the light dwelleth with him.

23I thank thee, and I praise thee, O 4God of my fathers, Who hast given me wisdom and might, And hast made known unto me already what we desired of thee; For thou hast made known unto us the king's matter.
