He would show you the secrets of wisdom,
for true wisdom has two sides.
Know then that God has chosen to overlook some of your sin.

After all that has happened to us because of our evil deeds and terrible guilt—though You, our God, have punished us less than our sins deserve and have allowed us to survive

The hidden things belong to the Lord our God, but the revealed things belong to us and our children forever, so that we may follow all the words of this law.

God is wise and all-powerful.
Who has opposed Him and come out unharmed?

Your iniquity teaches you what to say,
and you choose the language of the crafty.

Do you listen in on the council of God,
or have a monopoly on wisdom?

Are God’s consolations not enough for you,
even the words that deal gently with you?

He said to mankind,
“The fear of the Lord is this: wisdom.
And to turn from evil is understanding.”

The secret counsel of the Lord
is for those who fear Him,
and He reveals His covenant to them.

He has not dealt with us as our sins deserve
or repaid us according to our offenses.

He rescued them many times,
but they continued to rebel deliberately
and were beaten down by their sin.

ח KhetBecause of the Lord’s faithful love
we do not perish,
for His mercies never end.

But there is a God in heaven who reveals mysteries, and He has let King Nebuchadnezzar know what will happen in the last days. Your dream and the visions that came into your mind as you lay in bed were these:

The king said to Daniel, “Your God is indeed God of gods, Lord of kings, and a revealer of mysteries, since you were able to reveal this mystery.”

so that what was spoken through the prophet might be fulfilled:

I will open My mouth in parables;
I will declare things kept secret
from the foundation of the world.

Now to Him who has power to strengthen you according to my gospel and the proclamation about Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery kept silent for long ages

But as it is written:

What eye did not see and ear did not hear,
and what never entered the human mind—
God prepared this for those who love Him.

This was not made known to people in other generations as it is now revealed to His holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit:
