Daniel 2:27-40

27DanielH1841 answeredH6032 beforeH6925 the kingH4430 and saidH560, “As for the mysteryH7328 about whichH1768 the kingH4430 has inquiredH7593, neitherH3809 1wiseH2445 menH2445, conjurersH826, 2magiciansH2749 nor divinersH1505 are ableH3202 to declareH2331 it to the kingH4430. 28HoweverH1297, thereH383 is a 3GodH426 in heavenH8065 whoH1768 revealsH1541 mysteriesH7328, and He has madeH3046 knownH3046 to KingH4430 NebuchadnezzarH5020 whatH4101 will takeH1934 placeH1934 in the 45latterH320 daysH3118. ThisH1836 was your dreamH2493 and the 6visionsH2376 7in your mindH7217 while on your bedH4903. 29As for you, O kingH4430, while on your bedH4903 your thoughtsH7476 8turnedH5559 to whatH4101 would takeH1934 placeH1934 9in the futureH311; and 10He who revealsH1541 mysteriesH7328 has madeH3046 knownH3046 to you whatH4101 will takeH1934 placeH1934. 30But as for me, thisH1836 mysteryH7328 hasH383 not been revealedH1541 to me for any 11wisdomH2452 12residingH383 in me moreH4481 thanH4481 in anyH3606 other livingH2417 manH2417, but for the purposeH1701 of makingH3046 the interpretationH6591 knownH3046 to the kingH4430, and that you may 13understandH3046 the 14thoughtsH7476 of your 15mindH3825.

31“You, O kingH4430, were lookingH2370 and beholdH431, there was a singleH2298 greatH7690 statueH6755; that statueH6755, which was largeH7229 and 16of extraordinaryH3493 splendorH2122, was standingH6966 in frontH6903 of you, and its appearanceH7299 was 17awesomeH1763. 32The 18headH7217 of that statueH6755 was made of fineH2869 goldH1722, its breastH2306 and its armsH1872 of silverH3702, its bellyH4577 and its thighsH3410 of bronzeH5174, 33its legsH8243 of ironH6523, its feetH7271 partlyH4481 of ironH6523 and partlyH4481 of clayH2635. 34You 19continuedH1934 lookingH2370 untilH5705H1768 a 20stoneH69 was cutH1505 out 21withoutH3809 handsH3028, and it struckH4223 the statueH6755 on its feetH7271 of ironH6523 and clayH2635 and 22crushedH1855 them. 35ThenH116 the ironH6523, the clayH2635, the bronzeH5174, the silverH3702 and the goldH1722 were crushedH1855 23allH3606 at the sameH2298 timeH2298 and becameH1934 24like chaffH5784 from the summerH7007 threshingH147 floorsH147; and the windH7308 carriedH5376 them away so that 25not a traceH870 of them was foundH7912. But the stoneH69 that struckH4223 the statueH6755 becameH1934 a greatH7229 26mountainH2906 and filledH4391 the wholeH3606 earthH772.

36“ThisH1836 was the dreamH2493; now we will tellH560 27its interpretationH6591 beforeH6925 the kingH4430. 37You, O kingH4430, are the 28kingH4430 of kingsH4430, to whomH1768 the GodH426 of heavenH8065 has givenH3052 the 29kingdomH4437, the 30powerH2632, the strengthH8632 and the gloryH3367; 38and whereverH3606H1768 the sonsH1123 of menH606 dwellH1753, or the 31beastsH2423 of the fieldH1251, or the birdsH5776 of the skyH8065, He has givenH3052 them into your handH3028 and has caused you to ruleH7981 over them allH3606. You are the headH7217 of goldH1722. 39AfterH870 you there will ariseH6966 anotherH321 kingdomH4437 inferiorH772 to you, then anotherH321 thirdH8523 kingdomH4437 of bronzeH5174, whichH1768 will ruleH7981 over allH3606 the earthH772. 40Then there will be a 32fourthH7244 kingdomH4437 as strongH8624 as ironH6523; inasmuchH3606H6903H1768 as ironH6523 crushesH1855 and shattersH2827 allH3606 thingsH3606, so, like ironH6523 that breaksH7490 in piecesH7490, it will crushH1855 and breakH7490 allH3606 theseH459 in piecesH7490.
