Daniel 2:17-30 - God Reveals Nebuchadnezzar's Dream
17 Then Daniel departed to his house, and made known the word to Hananiah, Mishael and Azariah his companions: 18 And for seeking companions from before the God of the heavens concerning this secret: that Daniel and his companions shall not be destroyed with the rest of the wise of Babel. 19 Then to Daniel in a vision of the night was the secret uncovered. Then Daniel praised to the God of the heavens. 20 Daniel. answered and said, For this the name of God being praised from forever and even to forever: for wisdom and strength are to him: 21 And he changes the times and the seasons; removing kings and setting up kings; giving wisdom to the wise and knowledge to those knowing understanding. 22 He uncovered deep and hidden things: he knew what in darkness, and light lodged with him. 23 For thee, O God of my fathers, I praise and laud that thou gavest me wisdom and strength, and now didst make known to me what we sought from thee: for thou didst make known to us the king's word.
24 For this cause Daniel went up to Arioch whom the king allotted to destroy the wise of Babel: he went and said thus to him: For the wise of Babel thou shalt not destroy: bring me up before the king, and I will show the interpretation to the king.
25 Then with haste Arioch brought up for Daniel before the king, and said thus to him, That I found a man from the sons of the captivity of Judah that will make known to the king the interpretation.
26 The king answered and said to Daniel, his name Belteshazzar, Is it to thee to be able to make known to me the dream that I saw, and its interpretation?
27 Daniel answered before the king, and said, The secret that the, king asked, not the wise men, the enchanters, the sacred scribes, the diviners, shall be able to show to the king; 28 But there is a God in the heavens revealing secrets, and he made known to king Nebuchadnezzar what to be in the latter days. Thy dream, and the visions of thy head upon thy bed, it is thus: 29 Thou, O king, thy thoughts upon thy bed went up what to be after this: and he revealing secrets made known to thee what to be. 30 And I not for wisdom that is in me more than all living is this secret revealed to me, but for the reason that they shall make known the interpretation to the king, and thou shalt know the thoughts of thy heart.
