Daniel 2:44-49
44And in the daysH3118 of thoseH581 kingsH4430 the 1GodH426 of heavenH8065 will 2setH6966 upH6966 a 3kingdomH4437 whichH1768 will neverH5957H3809 be destroyedH2255, and that kingdomH4437 will not beH7662 4leftH7662 for anotherH312 peopleH5972; it will 5crushH1855 and putH5487 anH5487 endH5487 toH5487 allH3606 theseH459 kingdomsH4437, but it will itselfH1932 endureH6966 foreverH5957. 45JustH6903H1768 as you sawH2370 that a 6stoneH69 was brokenH1505 off from the mountainH2906 withoutH3809 handsH3028, and that it crushedH1855 the ironH6523, the bronzeH5174, the clayH2635, the silverH3702, and the goldH1722, the 7greatH7229 GodH426 has madeH3046 knownH3046 to the kingH4430 whatH4101 8will takeH1934 placeH1934 9in the futureH311; so the dreamH2493 is certainH3330 and its interpretationH6591 is trustworthyH540.”
46ThenH116 KingH4430 NebuchadnezzarH5020 fellH5308 on his faceH600 and paidH5457 10humbleH5457 respectH5457 to DanielH1841, and gaveH560 ordersH560 to presentH5260 to him an offeringH4504 and 11incenseH5208. 47The kingH4430 respondedH6032 to DanielH1841 and saidH560, “12Your GodH426 trulyH4481H7187H1768 is a 13GodH426 of godsH426 and a LordH4756 of kingsH4430 and a 14revealerH1541 of secretsH7328, sinceH1768 you have beenH3202 ableH3202 to revealH1541 thisH1836 secretH7328.” 48ThenH116 the kingH4430 1516promotedH7236 DanielH1841 and gaveH3052 him manyH7690 greatH7229 giftsH4978, and he madeH7981 him rulerH7981 overH5922 the entireH3606 17provinceH4083 of BabylonH895, and chiefH7229 18prefectH5460 overH5922 allH3606 the wiseH2445 menH2445 of BabylonH895. 49And DanielH1841 madeH1156 aH1156 requestH1156 of the kingH4430, and he 19appointedH4483 20ShadrachH7715, MeshachH4336, and Abed-negoH5665 overH5922 the administrationH5673 of the provinceH4083 of BabylonH895, while DanielH1841 was at the king’sH4430 2122courtH8651.
