23 I praise you and honour you, God of my ancestors.You have given me wisdom and strength;you have answered my prayerand shown us what to tell the king.”
24 So Daniel went to Arioch, whom the king had commanded to execute the royal advisers. He said to him, “Don't put them to death. Take me to the king, and I will tell him what his dream means.”
25 At once Arioch took Daniel into King Nebuchadnezzar's presence and told the king, “I have found one of the Jewish exiles, who can tell Your Majesty the meaning of your dream.”
26 The king said to Daniel (who was also called Belteshazzar), “Can you tell me what I dreamt and what it means?”
27 Daniel replied, “Your Majesty, there is no wizard, magician, fortune teller, or astrologer who can tell you that.
28 But there is a God in heaven, who reveals mysteries. He has informed Your Majesty what will happen in the future. Now I will tell you the dream, the vision you had while you were asleep.
29 “While Your Majesty was sleeping, you dreamt about the future; and God, who reveals mysteries, showed you what is going to happen.
