11ThereH383 isH383 a 1manH1400 in your kingdomH4437 in whomH1768 is 2a 3spiritH7308 of the holyH6922 godsH426; and in the daysH3118 of your fatherH2, illuminationH5094, insightH7924, and wisdomH2452 like the wisdomH2452 of the godsH426 were foundH7912 in him. And KingH4430 NebuchadnezzarH5020, your fatherH2--your fatherH2 45the kingH4430--appointedH6966 him chiefH7229 of the soothsayerH2749 priestsH2749, sorcerersH826, ChaldeansH3779, and divinersH1505. 12This was becauseH6903H1768 an 6extraordinaryH3493 spiritH7308, knowledgeH4486 and insightH7924, interpretationH6590 of dreamsH2493, explanationH263 of riddlesH280, and solvingH8271 of difficultH7001 problemsH7001 were foundH7912 in this DanielH1841, whomH1768 the kingH4430 namedH8036 7BelteshazzarH1096. Let DanielH1841 nowH3705 be summonedH7123 and he will declareH2331 the interpretationH6591.”
