| Daniel | 2 | (6) But if ye show the dream, and the interpretation thereof, ye shall receive of me gifts and rewards and great honour: therefore show me the dream, and the interpretation thereof. | |
| Daniel | 2 | (7) They answered again and said, Let the king tell his servants the dream, and we will show the interpretation of it. | |
| Daniel | 2 | (8) The king answered and said, I know of certainty that ye would gain the time, because ye see the thing is gone from me. | |
| Daniel | 2 | (9) But if ye will not make known unto me the dream, there is but one decree for you: for ye have prepared lying and corrupt words to speak before me, till the time be changed: therefore tell me the dream, and I shall know that ye can show me the interpre | |
| Daniel | 2 | (10) The Chaldeans answered before the king, and said, There is not a man upon the earth that can show the king's matter: therefore there is no king, lord, nor ruler, that asked such things at any magician, or astrologer, or Chaldean. | |
| Daniel | 2 | (11) And it is a rare thing that the king requireth, and there is none other that can show it before the king, except the gods, whose dwelling is not with flesh. | |
| Daniel | 2 | (12) For this cause the king was angry and very furious, and commanded to destroy all the wise men of Babylon. | |
| Daniel | 2 | (13) And the decree went forth that the wise men should be slain; and they sought Daniel and his fellows to be slain. | |
| Daniel | 2 | (14) Then Daniel answered with counsel and wisdom to Arioch the captain of the king's guard, which was gone forth to slay the wise men of Babylon: | |
| Daniel | 2 | (15) He answered and said to Arioch the king's captain, Why is the decree so hasty from the ing? Then Arioch made the thing known to Daniel. | |
| Daniel | 2 | (16) Then Daniel went in, and desired of the king that he would give him time, and that he would show the king the interpretation. | |
| Daniel | 2 | (17) Then Daniel went to his house, and made the thing known to Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah, his companions: | |
| Daniel | 2 | (18) That they would desire mercies of the God of heaven concerning this secret; that Daniel and his fellows should not perish with the rest of the wise men of Babylon. | |
| Daniel | 2 | (19) Then was the secret revealed unto Daniel in a night vision. Then Daniel blessed the God of heaven. | |
| Daniel | 2 | (20) Daniel answered and said, Blessed be the name of God for ever and ever: for wisdom and might are his: | |
| Daniel | 2 | (21) And he changeth the times and the seasons: he removeth kings, and setteth up kings: he giveth wisdom unto the wise, and knowledge to them that know understanding: | |
| Daniel | 2 | (22) He revealeth the deep and secret things: he knoweth what is in the darkness, and the light dwelleth with him. | |
| Daniel | 2 | (23) I thank thee, and praise thee, O thou God of my fathers, who hast given me wisdom and might, and hast made known unto me now what we desired of thee: for thou hast now made known unto us the king's matter. | |
| Daniel | 2 | (24) Therefore Daniel went in unto Arioch, whom the king had ordained to destroy the wise men of Babylon: he went and said thus unto him; Destroy not the wise men of Babylon: bring me in before the king, and I will show unto the king the interpretation. | |
| Daniel | 2 | (25) Then Arioch brought in Daniel before the king in haste, and said thus unto him, I have found a man of the captives of Judah, that will make known unto the king the interpretation. | |
