Daniel 2:23 (WEB)
Context Reading
21He changes the times and the seasons.He removes kings and sets up kings.He gives wisdom to the wise,and knowledge to those who have understanding. 22He reveals the deep and secret things.He knows what is in the darkness,and the light dwells with him. 23I thank you and praise you,O God of my fathers,who have given me wisdom and might,and have now made known to me what we desired of you;for you have made known to us the king’s matter.” 24Therefore Daniel went in to Arioch, whom the king had appointed to destroy the wise men of Babylon. He went and said this to him: “Don’t destroy the wise men of Babylon. Bring me in before the king, and I will show to the king the interpretation.” 25Then Arioch brought in Daniel before the king in haste, and said this to him: “I have found a man of the children of the captivity of Judah who will make known to the king the interpretation.”
