Daniel 2:19-23

19Then the secret was revealed to Daniel in a night 1vision. Then Daniel blessed the God of heaven; 20Daniel said, “May the name of God be 2blessed forever and ever, For 3wisdom and power belong to Him.21It is He who 4changes the times and the periods; He 5removes kings and appoints kings; He gives 6wisdom to wise men, And knowledge to 7people of understanding.22It is He who 8reveals the profound and hidden things; 9He knows what is in the darkness, And the 10light dwells with Him.23To You, 11God of my fathers, I give thanks and praise, For You have given me 12wisdom and power; Even now You have made known to me what we 13requested of You, For You have made known to us the king’s matter.”
