1
And in the second
year
of the reign
of
Nebuchadnezzar
Nebuchadnezzar
dreamed
dreams
,
wherewith his spirit
was troubled
,
and his sleep
brake
from him.
2
Then
the king
commanded
to call
the magicians
,
and the astrologers
,
and the sorcerers
,
and the Chaldeans
,
for to shew
the king
his dreams
.
So they came
and stood
before
the king
.
3
And the king
said
unto them, I have dreamed
a dream
,
and my spirit
was troubled
to know
the dream
.
4
Then spake
the Chaldeans
to the king
in Syriack
,
O king
,
live
for ever
:
tell
thy servants
the dream
, and we will shew
the interpretation
.
5
The king
answered
and said to the Chaldeans,
The thing
is gone
from me:
if
ye will not
make known
unto me the dream
,
with the interpretation
thereof, ye shall be cut
in pieces
,
and your houses
shall be made
a dunghill
.
6
But if
ye shew
the dream
,
and the interpretation
thereof, ye shall receive of me
gifts
and rewards
and great
honour
: therefore shew
me
the dream
,
and the interpretation
thereof.
7
They answered
again
and said
,
Let the king
tell
his servants
the dream
, and we will shew
the interpretation
of it.
8
The king
answered
and said, I
know
of
certainty
that ye
would gain
the time
, because
ye see
the thing
is gone
from me.
9
But if
ye will not
make known
unto
me the dream
,
there is but
one
decree
for you: for ye have prepared
lying
and corrupt
words
to speak
before
me, till
the time
be changed
: therefore
tell
me the dream
,
and I shall know
that ye can shew
me the interpretation
thereof.
10
The Chaldeans
answered
before
the
king
,
and said
,
There is
not
a man
upon
the earth
that can
shew
the
king
's
matter
: therefore
there is
no
king
,
lord
,
nor ruler
,
that
asked
such
things
at any
magician
,
or astrologer
, or Chaldean.
11
And
it is
a rare
thing
that
the king
requireth
,
and there is
none
other
that can shew it before
the king
,
except
the gods
,
who
se
dwelling
is not with
flesh
.
12
For
this
cause
the king
was angry
and very
furious
,
and commanded
to destroy
all
the wise
men
of Babylon
.
13
And the decree
went forth
that the wise
men
should be slain
;
and they sought
Daniel
and his fellows
to be slain
.
14
Then
Daniel
answered
with counsel
and wisdom
to Arioch
the captain
of
the king's
guard
,
which was gone forth
to slay
the wise
men
of
Babylon
:
15
He answered
and said
to
Arioch
the king
's
captain
, Why
is
the decree
so
hasty
from
the king
?
Then
Arioch
made the thing
known
to Daniel
.
16
Then Daniel
went in
,
and desired
of
the king
that he would give
him time
, and that he would shew
the king
the interpretation
.
17
Then
Daniel
went
to his house
,
and made the thing
known
to Hananiah
, Mishael,
and Azariah
,
his companions
:
18
That they would desire
mercies
of
the God
of heaven
concerning
this
secret
;
that Daniel
and his fellows
should not
perish
with
the rest
of the wise
men
of Babylon
.
19
Then
was the secret
revealed
unto
Daniel
in a night
vision
.
Then
Daniel
blessed
the God
of heaven
.
20
Daniel
answered
and said
,
Blessed
be
the name
of God
for
ever
and
ever
:
for wisdom
and might
are his:
21
And he changeth
the times
and the seasons
:
he removeth
kings
,
and setteth up
kings
:
he giveth
wisdom
unto the wise
,
and knowledge
to them that know
understanding
:
22
He revealeth
the deep
and secret things
:
he knoweth
what
is
in the darkness
, and the light
dwelleth
with him.
23
I
thank
thee, and praise thee, O thou God
of my fathers
,
who hast given
me wisdom
and might
,
and hast made known
unto me now
what
we desired
of thee:
for thou hast
now
made known
unto us the king's
matter
.
24
Therefore
Daniel
went in
unto
Arioch
,
whom
the king
had ordained
to destroy
the wise
men
of Babylon
:
he went
and said
thus
unto him; Destroy not
the wise
men
of Babylon
:
bring me in
before
the king
, and I will shew
unto
the king
the interpretation
.
25
Then
Arioch
brought in
Daniel
before
the king
in haste
,
and said
thus
unto him, I have found
a man
of
the captives
of
Judah
,
that will make known
unto
the king
the interpretation
.
26
The king
answered
and said
to Daniel
,
whose
name
was
Belteshazzar
, Art
thou able
to make known
unto me the dream
which
I have seen
,
and the interpretation
thereof?
27
Daniel
answered
in the presence
of the king
,
and said
,
The secret
which
the king
hath demanded
cannot
the wise
men
, the astrologers,
the magicians
,
the soothsayers
, shew
unto the king
;
28
But
there is
a God
in heaven
that revealeth
secrets
,
and maketh known
to the king
Nebuchadnezzar
what
shall be
in the latter
days
.
Thy dream
,
and the visions
of thy head
upon
thy bed
,
are these
;
29
As for thee,
O king
,
thy thoughts
came
into thy mind
upon
thy bed
,
what
should come to pass
hereafter:
and he that revealeth
secrets
maketh known
to thee
what
shall come to pass
.
30
But as for me,
this
secret
is not
revealed
to me for
any
wisdom
that I have
more than
any
living
, but
for
their
sakes
that
shall make known
the interpretation
to the king
,
and that thou mightest know
the thoughts
of thy heart
.
31
Thou,
O king
, sawest,
and behold
a
great
image
. This
great
image
,
whose brightness
was
excellent
,
stood
before
thee; and the form
thereof
was
terrible
.
32
This image's
head
was
of fine
gold
,
his breast
and his arms
of silver
,
his belly
and his thighs
of brass
,
33
His legs
of iron
,
his feet
part
of iron
and part
of clay
.
34
Thou sawest
till
that a stone
was cut out
without
hands
,
which smote
the image
upon
his feet
that were
of iron
and clay
, and brake them
to pieces
.
35
Then
was the iron
,
the clay
,
the brass
,
the silver
,
and the gold
, broken to pieces
together
,
and
became
like the chaff
of
the summer
threshingfloors
;
and the wind
carried them
away
,
that
no
place
was found
for them: and the stone
that
smote
the image
became
a great
mountain
,
and filled
the whole
earth
.
36
This
is
the dream
;
and we will tell
the interpretation
thereof before
the king
.
37
Thou,
O king
,
art
a king
of kings
:
for the God
of heaven
hath given
thee a kingdom
,
power
,
and strength
,
and glory
.
38
And wheresoever
the children
of men
dwell,
the beasts
of the field
and the fowls
of the heaven
hath he given
into thine hand
,
and hath made thee ruler
over them all
. Thou
art
this head
of gold
.
39
And after
thee shall arise
another
kingdom
inferior
to thee, and another third
kingdom
of brass
,
which
shall bear rule
over all
the earth
.
40
And the fourth
kingdom
sh
all
be
strong
as
iron
:
for
as
much
as
iron
breaketh in pieces
and subdueth
all
things
: and
as
iron
that breaketh
all
these
, sh
all
it break in pieces
and bruise
.
41
And whereas
thou sawest
the feet
and toes
,
part
of potters'
clay
, and
part
of iron
,
the kingdom
sh
all
be
divided
; but there
sh
all
be
in it of
the strength
of
the iron
, forasmuch as
thou sawest
the iron
mixed
with miry
clay
.
42
And
as
the toes
of the feet
were
part
of iron
,
and part
of clay
,
so
the kingdom
shall be partly
strong
,
and part
ly
broken
.
43
And whereas
thou sawest
iron
mixed
with miry
clay
, they shall mingle themselves
with the seed
of men
: but they shall not
cleave
one
to
another
,
even
as
iron
is not
mixed
with
clay
.
44
And in the days
of
these
kings
sh
all
the God
of heaven
set up
a kingdom
,
which
sh
all
never
be destroyed
:
and the kingdom
sh
all
not
be left
to other
people
,
but
it sh
all
break in pieces
and consume
all
these
kingdoms
,
and it
sh
all
stand
for ever
.
45
Forasmuch as
thou sawest
that the stone
was cut out
of the mountain
without
hands
,
and that it brake in pieces
the iron
,
the brass
,
the clay
,
the silver
,
and the gold
;
the great
God
hath made known
to the king
what
shall come to pass
hereafter:
and the dream
is
certain
,
and the interpretation
thereof sure
.
46
Then
the king
Nebuchadnezzar
fell
upon
his face
,
and worshipped
Daniel
,
and commanded
that they should offer
an oblation
and sweet odours
unto him.
47
The king
answered
unto Daniel
,
and said
,
Of
a truth
it is
, that
your God
is
a God
of gods
,
and a Lord
of kings
,
and a revealer
of secrets
,
seeing thou couldest
reveal
this
secret
.
48
Then
the king
made
Daniel
a great man
,
and gave
him many
great
gifts
,
and made him ruler
over
the whole
province
of Babylon
,
and chief
of the g
over
nors
over
all
the wise
men
of Babylon
.
49
Then Daniel
requested
of
the king
,
and he set
Shadrach
,
Meshach
,
and Abednego
,
over
the affairs
of the province
of Babylon
:
but Daniel
sat
in the gate
of
the king
.
