Daniel 2:16-17

2:16 So Daniel went in and ¹  requested the king to grant him time, that he might disclose the interpretation to the king. 2:17 Then Daniel went to his home and informed his friends Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah of the matter.

[2:16]  ¹ tc Theodotion and the Syriac lack the words “went in and.”
