Daniel 2:10-13
10The Chaldeans answered 1the king and said, “There is no person on earth who could declare the matter 2to the king, because no great king or ruler has ever asked anything like this of any 3soothsayer priest, sorcerer, or Chaldean. 11Moreover, the thing which the king demands is difficult, and there is no one else who could declare it 4to the king except 5gods, whose 6dwelling place is not with mortal flesh.”
12Because of this, the king became 7angry and extremely furious, and he gave orders to kill all the wise men of Babylon. 13So the 8decree was issued that the wise men be killed; and they looked for 9Daniel and his friends, to 10kill them.
