Daniel 2:14-23
The Dream Revealed to Daniel

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:

14:

15 He answered and said to Arioch the king’s captain, Why [is] the decree [so] hasty from the king? Then Arioch made the thing known to Daniel.

15:

16 Then Daniel went in, and desired of the king that he would give him time, and that he would shew the king the interpretation.

16:

17 Then Daniel went to his house, and made the thing known to Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah, his companions:

17:

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.

18:

19 Then was the secret revealed unto Daniel in a night vision. Then Daniel blessed the God of heaven.

19:

20 Daniel answered and said, Blessed be the name of God for ever and ever: for wisdom and might are his:

20:

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:

21:

22 He revealeth the deep and secret things: he knoweth what [is] in the darkness, and the light dwelleth with him.

22:

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.

23:
