1: In [G1722] the [G3588] year [G2094] the [G3588] second [G1208] of the [G3588] government ' of Nebuchadnezzar, dreamed [G1797] Nebuchadnezzar] a dream [G1798], and [G2532] was startled [G1839] the [G3588] his wind/spirit/breathing '[G4151][G1473], and [G2532] the [G3588] his sleep [G5258][G1473] [went [G1096] from him [G1473].
2: And [G2532] said [G2036] the [G3588] king to call [G2564] the [G3588] enchanters , and [G2532] the [G3588] magi [G3097], and [G2532] the [G3588] administers of potions [G5333], and [G2532] the [G3588] Chaldeans, the [G3588] to announce to the [G3588] king the [things] [G3588] of his dreams [G1798][G1473]. And [G2532] they came [G2064] and [G2532] stood [G2476] before [G1799] the [G3588] king .
3: And [G2532] said [G2036] to them [G1473] the [G3588] king , I dreamed [G1797], and [G2532] it startled [G1839] the [G3588] wind/spirit/breathing '[G4151] of me [G1473] [so as the [G3588] to know [G1097] the [G3588] dream [G1798].
4: And [G2532] spoke [G2980] the [G3588] Chaldeans] to the [G3588] king in Syriac, O king , into [G1519] the [G3588] ages (terms) ` live [G2198]! You [G1473] tell [G2036] the [G3588] dream [G1798] [to the [G3588] your servants [G3816][G1473]! and [G2532] the [G3588] interpretation of it [G1473] we will announce .
5: answered the [G3588] king and [G2532] said [G2036] to the [G3588] Chaldeans, the [G3588] word '[G3056] from me [G1473] departed . If [G1437] then [G3767] you should not [G3361] make known [G1107] to me [G1473] the [G3588] dream [G1798] and [G2532] the [G3588] interpretation of it [G1473], for [G1519] destruction you will be , and [G2532] the [G3588] your houses [G3624][G1473] will be torn in pieces [G1283].
6: But if [G1437][G1161] the [G3588] dream [G1798] and [G2532] the [G3588] interpretation of it [G1473] you should make known [G1107] to me [G1473], gifts [G1390] and [G2532] [favors] without charge [G1431], and [G2532] honor [G5092] much [G4183] you will receive [G2983] from [G3844] me [G1473]. Except [G4133] the [G3588] dream [G1798] and [G2532] the [G3588] interpretation of it [G1473] report to me [G1473]!
7: They answered a second [time] [G1208] and [G2532] said [G2036], the [G3588] king Let] tell [G2036] the [G3588] dream [G1798] to the [G3588] his servants [G3816][G1473]! and [G2532] the [G3588] interpretation of it [G1473] we will announce .
8: And [G2532] answered the [G3588] king and [G2532] said [G2036], In [G1909] truth I know [G1492][G1473] that [G3754] time [G2540] you [G1473] buy back [G1805], even [G2532] in so far as [G2530] you knew [G1492] that [G3754] departed from me [G1473] the [G3588] word [G4487].
9: If [G1437] then [G3767] the [G3588] dream [G1798] you should not [G3361] announce to me [G1473], I know [G1492] that [G3754] word [G4487] a lying [G5571] and [G2532] corrupt [G1311] you agreed [G4934] to speak [G2036] before [G1799] me [G1473] until [G2193][G3739] the [G3588] time [G2540] should go by [G3928]. the [G3588] my dream [G1798][G1473] Tell [G2036] to me [G1473]! and [G2532] I will know [G1097] that [G3754] also [G2532] the [G3588] its interpretation [G1473] you will announce to me [G1473].
10: Answered again [G3825] the [G3588] Chaldeans before [G1799] the [G3588] king , and [G2532] they say [G3004], There not [G3756] is a man upon [G1909] the [G3588] dry land [G3584] who [G3748] is able [G1410] the [G3588] discourse [G4487] of the [G3588] king to make known [G1107], in so far as [G2530] every [G3956] king great [G3173] and [G2532] ruler matter [G4487] [according to] such [G5108] asked not [G3756][G1905] an enchanter , magus [or [G3097] Chaldean.
11: For [G3754] the [G3588] word [G3056] which [G3739] the [G3588] king asks [G1905] [is] heavy , and [G2532] no other [G2087][G3756] there is who [G3739] will announce it [G1473] before [G1799] the [G3588] king , except the [G3588] gods '[G2316], which [G3739] are not [G3756][G3739] dwelling [G2733] with [G3326] any [G3956] flesh [G4561].
12: Then [G5119] the [G3588] king in [G1722] rage [G2372] and [G2532] anger [G3709] much [G4183], said [G2036] to destroy all [G3956] the [G3588] wise [men [G4680] of Babylon.
13: And [G2532] the [G3588] decree [G1378] went forth [G1831], that [G2532] the [G3588] wise men [G4680] be killed ; and [G2532] they sought [G2212] Daniel and [G2532] the [G3588] his friends [G5384][G1473] to do away with .
14: Then [G5119] Daniel answered counsel [G1012] and [G2532] opinion [G1106] [to the [G3588] Arioch the [G3588] chief guard of the [G3588] king , who [G3739] came forth [G1831] to do away with the [G3588] wise men [G4680] of Babylon.
15: And [G2532] he inquired [G4441] of him [G1473], saying [G3004], O Ruler of the [G3588] king , for [G4012] what [reason [G5100] came forth [G1831] the [G3588] decree [G1106] which [G3739] [is] impudent from [G1537] in front [G4383] of the [G3588] king ? made known [G1107] And [G1161] the [G3588] saying [G4487] Arioch the [G3588] to Daniel.
16: And [G2532] Daniel entered [G1525] and [G2532] petitioned the [G3588] king so as [G3704] time [G5550] to give [G1325] to him [G1473], and [G2532] the [G3588] interpretation of it [G1473] he should announce to the [G3588] king .
17: And [G2532] Daniel went [G1525] into [G1519] the [G3588] his house [G3624][G1473], and [G2532] [to the [G3588] Hananiah, and [G2532] [to the [G3588] Mishael, and [G2532] [to the [G3588] Azariah the [G3588] his friends [G5384][G1473] the [G3588] saying [G4487] to make known [G1107].
18: And [G2532] compassions [G3628] they sought [G2212] from [G3844] the [G3588] God '[G2316] of the [G3588] raised-place-above (sky) '[G3772] concerning [G5228] the [G3588] this mystery [G3466][G3778], so that [G3704] therefore should not [G3361] be destroyed Daniel and [G2532] the [G3588] his friends [G5384][G1473] with [G3326] the [G3588] rest [G1954] of wise men [G4680] of Babylon.
19: Then [G5119] to Daniel in [G1722] vision [G3705] a night [G3571] the [G3588] mystery [G3466] was uncovered , and [G2532] blessed [G2127] the [G3588] God '[G2316] of the [G3588] raised-place-above (sky) '[G3772] Daniel].
20: And [G2532] he said [G2036], May it be -- the [G3588] name [G3686] of the [G3588] God '[G2316] being blessed [G2127] from the [G3588] age (term) ` and [G2532] unto [G2193] the [G3588] age (term) `, for [G3754] the [G3588] wisdom [G4678] and [G2532] the [G3588] might [G2479] are of him '[G1473].
21: And [G2532] he [G1473] changes seasons [G2540] and [G2532] times [G5550]; he ordains [G2525] kings , and [G2532] changes [G3179]; giving [G1325] wisdom [G4678] to the [G3588] wise [G4680], and [G2532] intelligence [G5428] to the [G3588] [ones] knowing [G1492] understanding [G4907].
22: He [G1473] uncovers deep and [G2532] concealed [things] , knowing [G1097] the [things] [G3588] in [G1722] the [G3588] darkness [G4655], and [G2532] the [G3588] light [G5457] with [G3326] him [G1473] is .
23: To you [G1473], O the [G3588] God '[G2316] of the [G3588] my fathers [G3962][G1473], I acknowledge [G1843] and [G2532] praise , for [G3754] wisdom [G4678] and [G2532] power [G1411] you gave [G1325] to me [G1473], and [G2532] made known [G1107] to me [G1473] what [G3739] we petitioned from [G3844] you [G1473]; and [G2532] the [G3588] matter [G4487] of the [G3588] king you made known [G1107] to me [G1473].
24: And [G2532] Daniel came [G2064] to [G4314] Arioch, whom [G3739] appointed [G2525] the [G3588] king to destroy the [G3588] [wise] men [G4680] of Babylon, and [G2532] said [G2036] to him [G1473], the [G3588] wise [men [G4680] of Babylon you should not [G3361] destroy , but bring [G1521][G1161] me [G1473] before [G1799] the [G3588] king , and [G2532] the [G3588] interpretation to the [G3588] king I will announce .
25: Then [G5119] Arioch in [G1722] haste [G4710] brought [G1521] the [G3588] Daniel before [G1799] the [G3588] king , and [G2532] said [G2036] to him [G1473], I found [G2147] a man from out of [G1537] the [G3588] sons [G5207] of the [G3588] captivity of the [G3588] Judea, one who [G3748] the [G3588] interpretation to the [G3588] king will announce .
26: And [G2532] answered the [G3588] king and [G2532] said [G2036] the [G3588] to Daniel, of which [G3739] the [G3588] name [G3686] [was] Belteshazzar, Are [G1487] you able [G1410] to announce to me [G1473] the [G3588] dream [G1798] which [G3739] I looked [at] [G1492], and [G2532] the [G3588] interpretation of it [G1473]?
27: And [G2532] Daniel answered before [G1799] the [G3588] king , and [G2532] he said [G2036], the [G3588] mystery [G3466] which [G3739] the [G3588] king asks [G1905] not [G3756] is of wise men [G4680], magi [G3097], enchanters , astrologers , to announce to the [G3588] king .
28: But there is a God '[G2316] in [G1722] raised-place-above (sky) '[G3772] uncovering mysteries [G3466], and [G2532] he made known [G1107] the [G3588] to king Nebuchadnezzar what [G3739] must [G1163] take place [G1096] at [G1909] last [G2078] of the [G3588] days [G2250]. the [G3588] dream [G1798] of yours [G1473], and [G2532] the [G3588] visions [G3706] of the [G3588] your head [G2776][G1473] upon [G1909] the [G3588] your bed [G2845][G1473], is this [G3778],
29: You [G1473], O king , the [G3588] your thoughts [G1261][G1473] upon [G1909] the [G3588] your bed [G2845][G1473] went up to what [G5100] must [G1163] take place [G1096] after [G3326] these [things] [G3778]. And [G2532] the [G3588] [one] uncovering mysteries [G3466] made known [G1107] to you [G1473] what [G3739] must [G1163] take place [G1096].
30: And [G2532] to me [G1473] [there is] not [G3756] a [G1722] wisdom [G4678] the [G3588] being in [G1722] me [G1473] more than [G3844] all [G3956] the [G3588] living [G2198]; the [G3588] this mystery [G3466][G3778] was uncovered but because [G1752] of the [G3588] [G3588] interpretation to the [G3588] king to be made known [G1107], that [G2443] the [G3588] thoughts [G1261] of the [G3588] your heart [G2588][G1473] you should know [G1097].
31: You [G1473], O king , viewed [G2334]. And [G2532] look [G2400], image [G1504] one [G1520] great [G3173]. the [G3588] image [G1504] That [G1565] great [G3173], and [G2532] the [G3588] aspect of it [G1473] was overwhelming , standing [G2476] before [G4253] face [G4383] of you [G1473]; and [G2532] the [G3588] vision [G3706] of it [G1473] was fearful [G5398].
32: An image [G1504] of which [G3739] the [G3588] head [G2776] [was] of gold [G5553] pure [G2513], the [G3588] hands [G5495] and [G2532] the [G3588] breast [G4738] and [G2532] the [G3588] arms [G1023] of it [G1473] silver , the [G3588] belly [G2836] and [G2532] the [G3588] thighs [G3382] brass [G5470],
33: the the [G3588] legs iron [G4603], the [G3588] feet [G4228] part [G3313] somewhat [G3303][G5100] of iron [G4603], and part [G3313][G1161] somewhat [G5100] earthenware [G3749].
34: You viewed [G2334] until [G2193] was shredded a stone [G3037] from [G1537] a raised-place (mountain) '[G3735] without hands [G5495], and [G2532] it struck [G3960] the [G3588] image [G1504] upon [G1909] the [G3588] feet [G4228] of the [G3588] iron [G4603] and [G2532] earthenware [G3749]; and [G2532] it thinned them out [G1473] unto [G1519] completion [G5056].
35: Then [G5119] they were thinned out at once -- the [G3588] potsherd , the [G3588] iron [G4604], the [G3588] brass [G5475], the [G3588] silver , the [G3588] gold [G5557]; and [G2532] they became [G1096] as [G5616] a cloud of dust [G2868] from threshing-floor at harvest ; and [G2532] lifted them away [G1808][G1473] the [G3588] abundance [G4128] of the [G3588] wind/spirit/breathing '[G4151], and [G2532] no place [G5117][G3756] [was] found [G2147] for them [G1473]; and [G2532] the [G3588] stone [G3037] which [G3739] struck [G3960] the [G3588] image [G1504] became [G1096] raised-place (mountain) '[G3735] a great [G3173], and [G2532] it filled [G4137] all [G3956] the [G3588] land '[G1093].
36: This [G3778] is the [G3588] dream [G1798]; and [G2532] the [G3588] interpretation of it [G1473] we will tell [G2046] before [G1799] the [G3588] king .
37: You [G1473], O king , [are] king of kings , to whom [G3739] the [G3588] God '[G2316] of the [G3588] raised-place-above (sky) '[G3772] government ' a strong [G2478] and [G2532] fortified [G2900] and [G2532] honorable [G1784] gave [G1325].
38: In [G1722] every [G3956] place [G5117] where [G3699] dwell [G2730] the [G3588] sons [G5207] of the [G3588] men , both wild beasts [G2342][G5037] of field and [G2532] birds [G4071] of raised-place-above (sky) '[G3772] he gave [G1325] into [G1722] the [G3588] your hand [G5495][G1473], and [G2532] he placed [G2525] you [G1473] boss [G2962] of all [G3956]. You [G1473] are the [G3588] head [G2776] of the [G3588] gold [G5552].
39: And [G2532] after [G3694] you [G1473] will arise government ' another [G2087] inferior [G2276] of you [G1473], and [G2532] government ' a third [G5154] which [G3748] is the [G3588] brass [G5475], which [G3739] will dominate [G2961] [over] all [G3956] the [G3588] land '[G1093].
40: And [G2532] government ' a fourth [G5067] which [G3748] will be strong [G2478] as [G5613] iron [G4604], in which [G3739] manner [G5158] the [G3588] iron [G4604] makes fine and [G2532] tames [G1150] all [things] [G3956] -- so [G3779] it will be made fine and [G2532] be tamed [G1150].
41: And [G2532] that [G3754] [which] you looked [at] [G1492] of the [G3588] feet [G4228] and [G2532] of the [G3588] toes [G1147], part [G3313] somewhat [G3303][G5100] earthenware [G3749], and part [G3313][G1161] somewhat [G5100] of iron [G4603], a government ' divided [G1244] will be ; and [G2532] [some] from the [G3588] root [G4491] of the [G3588] iron [G4603] will be in [G1722] it [G1473], in which [G3739] manner [G5158] you looked [at] [G1492] the [G3588] iron [G4604] being intermingled with the [G3588] potsherd .
42: And [G2532] the [G3588] toes [G1147] of the [G3588] feet [G4228], part [G3313] somewhat [G3303][G5100] of iron [G4603] and part [G3313][G1161] somewhat [G5100] earthenware [G3749], part [G3313] somewhat [G5100] of the [G3588] government ' will be strong [G2478], and [G2532] [some] from it [G1473] will be broken [G4937].
43: For [G3754] you looked [at] [G1492] the [G3588] iron [G4604] being intermingled with the [G3588] potsherd ; mixed together [so] they will be with [G1722] seed [G4690] of men . But [G2532] they will not be [G3756] cleaving [G4347], this one [G3778] with [G3326] this [other] one [G3778], as [G2531] the [G3588] iron [G4604] does not [G3756] intermingle with [G3326] the [G3588] potsherd .
