27:002:009 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.

27:002:010 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.

27:002:011 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,
           whose dwelling is not with flesh.

27:002:012 For this cause the king was angry and very furious, and
           commanded to destroy all the wise men of Babylon.

27:002:013 And the decree went forth that the wise men should be slain;
           and they sought Daniel and his fellows to be slain.

27:002:014 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: 

27:002:015 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.

27:002:016 Then Daniel went in, and desired of the king that he would
           give him time, and that he would shew the king the
           interpretation.

27:002:017 Then Daniel went to his house, and made the thing known to
           Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah, his companions: 

27:002:018 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.

27:002:019 Then was the secret revealed unto Daniel in a night vision. 
           Then Daniel blessed the God of heaven.

27:002:020 Daniel answered and said, Blessed be the name of God for ever
           and ever:  for wisdom and might are his: 

27:002:021 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: 

27:002:022 He revealeth the deep and secret things:  he knoweth what is in
           the darkness, and the light dwelleth with him.

27:002:023 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.
