Daniel 2:8-9

8The king said to them, ‘You know that I will not change my mind. So you are just trying to get more time.

9If you do not tell me the dream, I will certainly punish you with death. You have agreed among yourselves to tell me lies. You want to deceive me until you can think of something better. So now, tell me the dream. Then I will believe you when you tell me what it means.’
