And in the second H8147 MFD year H8141 of the reign H4438 of Nebuchadnezzar H5019 Nebuchadnezzar H5019 dreamed H2492 dreams H2472 , wherewith his spirit H7307 CMS-3MS was troubled H6470 , and his sleep H8142 broke H1961 from H5921 him .
Then the king H4428 D-NMS commanded H559 W-VQY3MS to call H7121 the magicians H2748 , and the astrologers H825 , and the sorcerers H3784 , and the Chaldeans H3778 , for to show H5046 L-VHFC the king H4428 his dreams H2472 . So they came H935 W-VQY3MP and stood H5975 before H6440 L-CMP the king H4428 .
And the king H4428 D-NMS said H559 W-VQY3MS unto them , I have dreamed H2492 a dream H2472 , and my spirit H7307 CFS-1MS was troubled H6470 to know H3045 L-VQFC the dream H2472 .
Then spoke H1696 the Chaldeans H3778 to the king H4428 in Syriac H762 , O king H4430 , live H2418 forever H5957 : tell H560 thy servants H5649 the dream H2493 , and we will show H2324 the interpretation H6591 .
The king H4430 answered H6032 and said H560 to the Chaldeans H3779 , The thing H4406 is gone H230 from H4481 me : if H2006 ye will not H3809 make known H3046 unto me the dream H2493 , with the interpretation H6591 thereof , ye shall be cut H5648 in pieces H1917 , and your houses H1005 shall be made H7761 a dunghill H5122 .
But if H2006 ye show H2324 the dream H2493 , and the interpretation H6591 thereof , ye shall receive H6902 of me gifts H4978 and rewards H5023 and great H7690 honor H3367 : therefore H3861 show H2324 me the dream H2493 , and the interpretation H6591 thereof .
They answered H6032 again H8579 and said H560 , Let the king H4430 tell H560 his servants H5649 the dream H2493 , and we will show H2324 the interpretation H6591 of it .
The king H4430 answered H6032 and said H560 , I H576 know H3046 of H4481 certainty H3330 that H1768 ye H608 would gain H2084 the time H5732 , because H3606 ye see H2370 the thing H4406 is gone H230 from H4481 me .
But H1768 if H2006 ye will not H3809 make known H3046 unto me the dream H2493 , [ there ] [ is ] [ but ] one H2298 decree H1882 for you : for ye have prepared H2164 lying H3538 and corrupt H7844 words H4406 to speak H560 before H6925 me , till H5705 the time H5732 be changed H8133 : therefore H3861 tell H560 me the dream H2493 , and I shall know H3046 that H1768 ye can show H2324 me the interpretation H6591 thereof .
The Chaldeans H3779 answered H6032 before H6925 the king H4430 , and said H560 , There is H383 not H3809 a man H606 upon H5922 the earth H3007 that H1768 can H3202 show H2324 the king H4430 \'s matter H4406 : therefore H3606 [ there ] [ is ] no H3809 king H4430 , lord H7229 , nor ruler H7990 , [ that ] asked H7593 such things H1836 at any H3606 magician H2749 , or astrologer H826 , or Chaldean H3779 .
And [ it ] [ is ] a rare H3358 thing H4406 that H1768 the king H4430 requireth H7593 , and there is H383 none H3809 other H321 that H1768 can show H2324 it before H6925 the king H4430 , except H3861 the gods H426 , whose H1768 dwelling H4070 is H383 not H3809 with H5974 flesh H1321 .
For this cause H3606 the king H4430 was angry H1149 and very H7690 furious H7108 , and commanded H560 to destroy H7 all H3606 the wise H2445 [ men ] of Babylon H895 .
And the decree H1882 went forth H5312 that the wise H2445 [ men ] should be slain H6992 ; and they sought H1156 Daniel H1841 and his fellows H2269 to be slain H6992 .
Then H116 Daniel H1841 answered H8421 with counsel H5843 and wisdom H2942 to Arioch H746 the captain H7229 of H1768 the king H4430 \'s guard H2877 , which H1768 was gone forth H5312 to slay H6992 the wise H2445 [ men ] of Babylon H895 :
He answered H6032 and said H560 to Arioch H746 the king H4430 \'s captain H7990 , Why H5922 [ is ] the decree H1882 [ so ] hasty H2685 from the king H4430 ? Then H116 Arioch H746 EMS made the thing known H3046 to Daniel H1841 .
Then Daniel H1841 went in H5954 , and desired H1156 of H4481 the king H4430 that H1768 he would give H5415 him time H2166 , and that he would show H2324 the king H4430 the interpretation H6591 .
Then H116 Daniel H1841 went H236 to his house H1005 , and made the thing known H3046 to Hananiah H2608 , Mishael H4333 , and Azariah H5839 , his companions H2269 :
That they would desire H1156 mercies H7359 of the God H426 of heaven H8065 concerning H5922 this H1836 secret H7328 ; that H1768 Daniel H1841 and his fellows H2269 should not H3809 perish H7 with H5974 the rest H7606 of the wise H2445 [ men ] of Babylon H895 .
Then H116 was the secret H7328 revealed H1541 unto Daniel H1841 in a night H1768 vision H2376 . Then H116 Daniel H1841 blessed H1289 the God H426 of heaven H8065 .
Daniel H1841 answered H6032 and said H560 , Blessed H1289 be H1934 the name H8036 of H1768 God H426 forever and ever H4481 : for H1768 wisdom H2452 and might H1370 are his :
And he H1932 changeth H8133 the times H5732 and the seasons H2166 : he removeth H5709 kings H4430 , and setteth up H6966 kings H4430 : he giveth H3052 wisdom H2452 unto the wise H2445 , and knowledge H4486 to them that know H3046 understanding H999 :
He H1932 revealeth H1541 the deep H5994 and secret things H5642 : he knoweth H3046 what H4101 [ is ] in the darkness H2816 , and the light H5094 dwelleth H8271 with H5974 him .
I H576 thank H3029 thee , and praise H7624 thee , O thou God H426 of my fathers H2 , who H1768 hast given H3052 me wisdom H2452 and might H1370 , and hast made known H3046 unto me now H3705 what H1768 we desired H1156 of H4481 thee : for H1768 thou hast [ now ] made known H3046 unto us the king H4430 \'s matter H4406 .
Therefore H1836 Daniel H1841 went in H5954 unto H5922 Arioch H746 EMS , whom H1768 the king H4430 had ordained H4483 to destroy H7 the wise H2445 [ men ] of Babylon H895 : he went H236 and said H560 thus H3652 unto him ; Destroy H7 not H409 the wise H2445 [ men ] of Babylon H895 : bring me in H5924 before H6925 the king H4430 , and I will show H2324 unto the king H4430 the interpretation H6591 .
Then H116 Arioch H746 EMS brought in H5954 Daniel H1841 before H6925 the king H4430 in haste H927 , and said H560 thus H3652 unto him , I have found H7912 a man H1400 of H4481 the captives H1547 of H1768 Judah H3061 , that H1768 will make known H3046 unto the king H4430 the interpretation H6591 .
The king H4430 answered H6032 and said H560 to Daniel H1841 , whose H1768 name H8036 [ was ] Belteshazzar H1096 , Art H383 thou able H3546 to make known H3046 unto me the dream H2493 which H1768 I have seen H2370 , and the interpretation H6591 thereof ?
Daniel H1841 answered H6032 in the presence of H6925 the king H4430 , and said H560 , The secret H7328 which H1768 the king H4430 hath demanded H7593 cannot H3202 the wise H2445 [ men ] , the astrologers H826 , the magicians H2749 , the soothsayers H1505 , show H2324 unto the king H4430 ;
But H1297 there is H383 a God H426 in heaven H8065 that revealeth H1541 secrets H7328 , and maketh known H3046 to the king H4430 Nebuchadnezzar H5020 what H4101 shall be H1934 in the latter H320 days H3118 . Thy dream H2493 , and the visions H2376 of thy head H7217 upon H5922 thy bed H4903 , are these H1836 ;
As for thee H607 , O king H4430 , thy thoughts H7476 came H5559 [ into ] [ thy ] [ mind ] upon H5922 thy bed H4903 , what H4101 should come to pass H1934 hereafter H311 : and he that revealeth H1541 secrets H7328 maketh known H3046 to thee what H4101 shall come to pass H1934 .
But as for me H576 , this H1836 secret H7328 is not H3809 revealed H1541 to me for [ any ] wisdom H2452 that H1768 I have H383 more than H4481 any H3606 living H2417 , but H3861 for [ their ] sakes H5922 that H1768 shall make known H3046 the interpretation H6591 to the king H4430 , and that thou mightest know H3046 the thoughts H7476 of thy heart H3825 .
Thou H607 , O king H4430 , sawest H2370 , and behold H431 a H2298 great H7690 image H6755 . This H1797 great H7229 image H6755 , whose brightness H2122 [ was ] excellent H3493 , stood H6966 before H6903 thee ; and the form H7299 thereof [ was ] terrible H1763 .
This H1932 image H6755 \'s head H7217 [ was ] of H1768 fine H2869 gold H1722 , his breast H2306 and his arms H1872 of H1768 silver H3702 , his belly H4577 and his thighs H3410 of H1768 brass H5174 ,
Thou sawest H2370 till H5705 that H1768 a stone H69 was cut out H1505 without H3809 hands H3028 , which smote H4223 the image H6755 upon H5922 his feet H7271 [ that ] [ were ] of H1768 iron H6523 and clay H2635 , and broke them to pieces H1855 .
Then H116 was the iron H6523 , the clay H2635 , the brass H5174 , the silver H3702 , and the gold H1722 , broken to pieces H1751 together H2298 , and became H1934 like the chaff H5784 of H4481 the summer H7007 threshingfloors H147 ; and the wind H7308 carried them away H5376 , that no H3809 place H870 was found H7912 for them : and the stone H69 that H1768 smote H4223 the image H6755 became H1934 a great H7229 mountain H2906 , and filled H4391 the whole H3606 earth H772 .
Thou H607 , O king H4430 , [ art ] a king H4430 of kings H4430 : for H1768 the God H426 of heaven H8065 hath given H3052 thee a kingdom H4437 , power H2632 , and strength H8632 , and glory H3367 .
And wheresoever H3606 the children H1123 of men H606 dwell H1753 , the beasts H2423 of the field H1251 and the fowls H5776 of the heaven H8065 hath he given H3052 into thine hand H3028 , and hath made thee ruler H7981 over them all H3606 . Thou H607 [ art ] this H1932 head H7217 of H1768 gold H1722 .
And after H870 thee shall arise H6966 another H317 kingdom H4437 inferior H772 to H4481 thee , and another H317 third H8523 kingdom H4437 of H1768 brass H5174 , which H1768 shall bear rule H7981 over all H3606 the earth H772 .
And the fourth H7244 kingdom H4437 shall be H1934 strong H8624 as iron H6523 : forasmuch as iron H6523 breaketh in pieces H1855 and subdueth H2827 all H3606 [ things ] : and as iron H6523 that H1768 breaketh H7490 all H3606 these H459 , shall it break in pieces H1855 and bruise H7490 .
And whereas H1768 thou sawest H2370 the feet H7271 and toes H677 , part H4481 of H1768 potters H6353 \' clay H2635 , and part H4481 of iron H6523 , the kingdom H4437 shall be H1934 divided H6386 ; but there shall be H1934 in it of H4481 the strength H5326 of H1768 the iron H6523 , forasmuch as thou sawest H2370 the iron H6523 mixed H6151 with miry H2917 clay H2635 .
And [ as ] the toes H677 of the feet H7271 [ were ] part H4481 of iron H6523 , and part H4481 of clay H2635 , [ so ] the kingdom H4437 shall be H1934 partly H4481 strong H8624 , and partly H4481 broken H8406 .
And whereas H1768 thou sawest H2370 iron H6523 mixed H6151 with miry H2917 clay H2635 , they shall H1934 mingle themselves H6151 with the seed H2234 of men H606 : but they shall H1934 not H3809 cleave H1693 one H1836 to H5974 another H1836 , even as iron H6523 is not H3809 mixed H6151 with H5974 clay H2635 .
And in the days H3118 of H1768 these H581 kings H4430 shall the God H426 of heaven H8065 set up H6966 a kingdom H4437 , which H1768 shall never H3809 be destroyed H2255 : and the kingdom H4437 shall not H3809 be left H7662 to other H321 people H5972 , [ but ] it shall break in pieces H1855 and consume H5487 all H3606 these H459 kingdoms H4437 , and it H1932 shall stand H6966 forever H5957 .
Forasmuch as thou sawest H2370 that H1768 the stone H69 was cut out H1505 of the mountain H2906 without H3809 hands H3028 , and that it broke in pieces H1855 the iron H6523 , the brass H5174 , the clay H2635 , the silver H3702 , and the gold H1722 ; the great H7229 God H426 hath made known H3046 to the king H4430 what H4101 shall come to pass H1934 hereafter H311 : and the dream H2493 [ is ] certain H3330 , and the interpretation H6591 thereof sure H540 .
Then H116 the king H4430 Nebuchadnezzar H5020 fell H5308 upon H5922 his face H600 , and worshiped H5457 Daniel H1841 , and commanded H560 that they should offer H5260 an oblation H4061 and sweet odors H5208 unto him .
The king H4430 answered H6032 unto Daniel H1841 , and said H560 , Of H4481 a truth H7187 [ it ] [ is ] , that H1768 your God H426 [ is ] a God H426 of gods H426 , and a Lord H4756 of kings H4430 , and a revealer H1541 of secrets H7328 , seeing H1768 thou couldest H3202 reveal H1541 this H1836 secret H7328 .
Then H116 the king H4430 made Daniel a great man H7236 , and gave H3052 him many H7690 great H7260 gifts H4978 , and made him ruler H7981 over H5922 the whole H3606 province H4083 of Babylon H895 , and chief H7229 of the governors H5460 over H5922 all H3606 the wise H2445 [ men ] of Babylon H895 .
Then Daniel H1841 requested H1156 of H4481 the king H4430 , and he set H4483 Shadrach H7715 , Meshach H4336 , and Abed H5665 - nego , over H5922 the affairs H5673 of H1768 the province H4083 of Babylon H895 : but Daniel H1841 [ sat ] in the gate H8651 of the king H4430 .
