Daniel
Chapters 2:20-26
New International Version Anglicized
20and said:‘Praise be to the name of God for ever and ever;wisdom and power are his.
21He changes times and seasons;he deposes kings and raises up others.He gives wisdom to the wiseand knowledge to the discerning.
22He reveals deep and hidden things;he knows what lies in darkness,and light dwells with him.
23I thank and praise you, God of my ancestors:you have given me wisdom and power,you have made known to me what we asked of you,you have made known to us the dream of the king.’
24Then Daniel went to Arioch, whom the king had appointed to execute the wise men of Babylon, and said to him, ‘Do not execute the wise men of Babylon. Take me to the king, and I will interpret his dream for him.’
25Arioch took Daniel to the king at once and said, ‘I have found a man among the exiles from Judah who can tell the king what his dream means.’
26The king asked Daniel (also called Belteshazzar), ‘Are you able to tell me what I saw in my dream and interpret it?’
