Daniel 2:8-9

8The king replied, “I know for certain that you are 1bargaining for time, inasmuch as you have seen that 2the command from me is firm,

9that if you do not make the dream known to me, there is only 3one 4decree for you. For you have agreed together to speak lying and corrupt 5words before me until the 6situation is changed; therefore tell me the dream, that I may 7know that you can declare to me its interpretation.”
