Daniel 2
And
in
the
second
year
of
the
reign
of
Nebuchadnezzar
Nebuchadnezzar
dreamed
a
dreams,
wherewith
his
spirit
was
b
troubled,
and
his
sleep
brake
from
him.
2 Then
the
king
commanded
to
call
the
a
magicians,
and
the
astrologers,
and
the
sorcerers,
and
the
Chaldeans,
for
to
shew
the
king
his
dreams.
So
they
came
and
stood
before
the
king.
3 And
the
king
said
unto
them,
I
have
dreamed
a
dream,
and
my
spirit
was
troubled
to
know
the
dream.
4 Then
spake
the
Chaldeans
to
the
king
in
a
Syriack,
O
king,
live
for
ever:
tell
thy
servants
the
dream,
and
we
will
b
shew
the
interpretation.
5 The
king
answered
and
said
to
the
Chaldeans,
The
thing
is
a
gone
from
me:
if
ye
will
not
make
known
unto
me
the
dream,
with
the
interpretation
thereof,
ye
shall
be
b
cut
in
pieces,
and
your
houses
shall
be
made
a
dunghill.
6 But
if
ye
shew
the
dream,
and
the
interpretation
thereof,
ye
shall
receive
of
me
gifts
and
rewards
and
great
honour:
therefore
shew
me
the
dream,
and
the
interpretation
thereof.
7 They
answered
again
and
said,
Let
the
king
tell
his
servants
the
dream,
and
we
will
shew
the
interpretation
of
it.
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.
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,
a
till
the
time
be
changed:
therefore
tell
me
the
dream,
and
I
shall
know
that
ye
can
shew
me
the
interpretation
thereof.
10 The
Chaldeans
answered
before
the
king,
and
said,
There
is
not
a
man
upon
the
earth
that
can
shew
the
king's
matter:
therefore
there
is
no
king,
lord,
nor
ruler,
that
asked
such
things
at
any
magician,
or
astrologer,
or
Chaldean.
11 And
it
is
a
rare
thing
that
the
king
requireth,
and
there
is
none
other
that
can
shew
it
before
the
king,
except
the
a
gods,
whose
dwelling
is
not
with
flesh.
12 For
this
cause
the
king
was
angry
and
very
furious,
and
commanded
to
destroy
all
the
wise
men
of
Babylon.
13 And
the
decree
went
forth
that
the
wise
men
should
be
slain;
and
they
sought
Daniel
and
his
fellows
to
be
slain.
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:
15 He
answered
and
said
to
Arioch
the
king's
captain,
Why
is
the
decree
so
a
hasty
from
the
king?
Then
Arioch
made
the
thing
known
to
Daniel.
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.
17 Then
Daniel
went
to
his
house,
and
made
the
thing
known
to
a
Hananiah,
Mishael,
and
Azariah,
his
companions:
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.
19 Then
was
the
a
secret
revealed
unto
Daniel
in
a
night
b
vision.
Then
Daniel
blessed
the
God
of
heaven.
20 Daniel
answered
and
said,
Blessed
be
the
name
of
God
for
ever
and
ever:
for
a
wisdom
and
might
are
his:
21 And
he
changeth
the
a
times
and
the
b
seasons:
he
c
removeth
kings,
and
setteth
up
kings:
he
giveth
d
wisdom
unto
the
wise,
and
e
knowledge
to
them
that
know
understanding:
22 He
a
revealeth
the
deep
and
secret
things:
he
b
knoweth
what
is
in
the
darkness,
and
the
c
light
dwelleth
with
him.
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.
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
shew
unto
the
king
the
interpretation.
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.
26 The
king
answered
and
said
to
Daniel,
whose
a
name
was
Belteshazzar,
Art
thou
able
to
make
b
known
unto
me
the
dream
which
I
have
seen,
and
the
interpretation
thereof?
27 Daniel
answered
in
the
presence
of
the
king,
and
said,
The
secret
which
the
king
hath
demanded
cannot
the
wise
men,
the
a
astrologers,
the
magicians,
the
soothsayers,
shew
unto
the
king;
28 But
there
is
a
God
in
heaven
that
a
revealeth
b
secrets,
and
maketh
known
to
the
king
Nebuchadnezzar
what
shall
be
in
the
latter
days.
Thy
c
dream,
and
the
visions
of
thy
head
upon
thy
bed,
are
these;
29 As
for
thee,
O
king,
thy
thoughts
came
into
thy
mind
upon
thy
bed,
what
should
come
to
pass
hereafter:
and
he
that
a
revealeth
secrets
maketh
known
to
thee
what
shall
come
to
pass.
30 But
as
for
me,
this
secret
is
not
revealed
to
me
for
any
a
wisdom
that
I
have
more
than
any
living,
but
b
for
their
sakes
that
shall
make
known
the
interpretation
to
the
king,
and
that
thou
mightest
know
the
thoughts
of
thy
heart.
31 Thou,
O
king,
sawest,
and
behold
a
great
a
image.
This
great
image,
whose
brightness
was
excellent,
stood
before
thee;
and
b
the
form
thereof
was
terrible.
32 This
image's
head
was
of
fine
gold,
his
breast
and
his
arms
of
silver,
his
belly
and
his
thighs
of
brass,
33 His
legs
of
iron,
his
feet
part
of
iron
and
part
of
clay.
34 Thou
sawest
till
that
a
a
stone
was
cut
out
b
without
hands,
which
smote
the
image
upon
his
feet
that
were
of
iron
and
clay,
and
brake
them
to
pieces.
35 Then
was
the
iron,
the
clay,
the
brass,
the
silver,
and
the
gold,
broken
to
pieces
together,
and
became
like
the
chaff
of
the
summer
threshingfloors;
and
the
wind
carried
them
away,
that
no
a
place
was
found
for
them:
and
the
b
stone
that
smote
the
image
became
a
great
mountain,
and
filled
the
whole
earth.
36 This
is
the
dream;
and
we
will
tell
the
interpretation
thereof
before
the
king.
37 Thou,
O
king,
art
a
king
of
kings:
for
the
God
of
heaven
hath
given
thee
a
a
kingdom,
power,
and
strength,
and
glory.
38 And
wheresoever
the
children
of
men
dwell,
the
beasts
of
the
field
and
the
fowls
of
the
heaven
hath
he
given
into
thine
hand,
and
hath
made
thee
ruler
over
them
all.
Thou
art
this
a
head
of
gold.
39 And
after
thee
shall
arise
another
a
kingdom
inferior
to
thee,
and
another
third
kingdom
of
brass,
which
shall
bear
b
rule
over
all
the
earth.
40 And
the
fourth
a
kingdom
shall
be
strong
as
iron:
forasmuch
as
iron
breaketh
in
pieces
and
subdueth
all
things:
and
as
iron
that
breaketh
all
these,
shall
it
break
in
pieces
and
bruise.
41 And
whereas
thou
sawest
the
feet
and
toes,
part
of
potters'
clay,
and
part
of
iron,
the
kingdom
shall
be
divided;
but
there
shall
be
in
it
of
the
strength
of
the
a
iron,
forasmuch
as
thou
sawest
the
iron
mixed
with
miry
clay.
42 And
as
the
toes
of
the
feet
were
part
of
iron,
and
part
of
clay,
so
the
kingdom
shall
be
partly
strong,
and
partly
broken.
43 And
whereas
thou
sawest
iron
mixed
with
miry
clay,
they
shall
mingle
themselves
with
the
seed
of
men:
but
they
shall
not
cleave
one
to
another,
even
as
iron
is
not
mixed
with
clay.
44 And
in
the
a
days
of
these
b
kings
shall
the
God
of
heaven
c
set
up
a
d
kingdom,
which
shall
never
be
e
destroyed:
and
the
f
kingdom
shall
not
be
left
to
other
people,
but
it
shall
g
break
in
pieces
and
h
consume
all
these
i
kingdoms,
and
it
shall
stand
for
ever.
45 Forasmuch
as
thou
sawest
that
the
a
stone
was
cut
out
of
the
mountain
without
hands,
and
that
it
brake
in
pieces
the
iron,
the
brass,
the
clay,
the
silver,
and
the
gold;
the
great
God
hath
made
b
known
to
the
king
what
shall
come
to
pass
hereafter:
and
the
dream
is
certain,
and
the
interpretation
thereof
sure.
46 Then
the
king
Nebuchadnezzar
fell
upon
his
face,
and
a
worshipped
Daniel,
and
commanded
that
they
should
offer
an
oblation
and
sweet
odours
unto
him.
47 The
king
answered
unto
Daniel,
and
said,
Of
a
truth
it
is,
that
your
a
God
is
a
b
God
of
gods,
and
a
c
Lord
of
kings,
and
a
revealer
of
secrets,
seeing
thou
couldest
reveal
this
secret.
48 Then
the
king
made
Daniel
a
a
great
man,
and
gave
him
many
great
gifts,
and
made
him
ruler
over
the
whole
province
of
Babylon,
and
chief
of
the
governors
over
all
the
wise
men
of
Babylon.
49 Then
Daniel
requested
of
the
king,
and
he
a
set
Shadrach,
Meshach,
and
Abed-nego,
over
the
affairs
of
the
province
of
Babylon:
but
Daniel
b
sat
in
the
gate
of
the
king.
