Daniel 2:18-30

2:18

That they would desire
<01156> (8749)

mercies
<07359>

of
<04481> <06925>

the God
<0426>

of heaven
<08065>

concerning
<05922>

this
<01836>

secret
<07328>_;

that Daniel
<01841>

and his fellows
<02269>

should not
<03809>

perish
<07> (8681)

with
<05974>

the rest
<07606>

of the wise
<02445>

[men] of Babylon
<0895>_.

{of the God: Chaldee, from before God} {that Daniel...: or, that they should not destroy Daniel, etc}

2:19

Then
<0116>

was the secret
<07328>

revealed
<01541> (8752)

unto Daniel
<01841>

in a night
<03916>

vision
<02376>_.

Then
<0116>

Daniel
<01841>

blessed
<01289> (8745)

the God
<0426>

of heaven
<08065>_.

2:20

Daniel
<01841>

answered
<06032> (8750)

and said
<0560> (8750)_,

Blessed
<01289> (8743)

be
<01934> (8748)

the name
<08036>

of God
<0426>

for
<04481>

ever
<05957>

and ever
<05705> <05957>_:

for wisdom
<02452>

and might
<01370>

are
<01932>

his:

2:21

And he changeth
<08133> (8683)

the times
<05732>

and the seasons
<02166>_:

he removeth
<05709> (8683)

kings
<04430>_,

and setteth up
<06966> (8683)

kings
<04430>_:

he giveth
<03052> (8751)

wisdom
<02452>

unto the wise
<02445>_,

and knowledge
<04486>

to them that know
<03046> (8751)

understanding
<0999>_:

2:22

He revealeth
<01541> (8751)

the deep
<05994>

and secret things
<05642> (8743)_:

he knoweth
<03046> (8751)

what
<04101>

[is] in the darkness
<02816>_,

and the light
<05094>

dwelleth
<08271> (8754)

with him
<05974>_.

2:23

I
<0576>

thank
<03029> (8683)

thee, and praise
<07624> (8743)

thee, O thou God
<0426>

of my fathers
<02>_,

who hast given
<03052> (8754)

me wisdom
<02452>

and might
<01370>_,

and hast made known
<03046> (8684)

unto me now
<03705>

what we desired
<01156> (8754)

of thee
<04481>_:

for thou hast [now] made known
<03046> (8684)

unto us the king's
<04430>

matter
<04406>_.

2:24

Therefore
<03606> <06903> <01836>

Daniel
<01841>

went in
<05954> (8754)

unto
<05922>

Arioch
<0746>_,

whom the king
<04430>

had ordained
<04483> (8745)

to destroy
<07> (8682)

the wise
<02445>

[men] of Babylon
<0895>_:

he went
<0236> (8754)

and said
<0560> (8754)

thus
<03652>

unto him; Destroy
<07> (8681)

not
<0409>

the wise
<02445>

[men] of Babylon
<0895>_:

bring me in
<05954> (8680)

before
<06925>

the king
<04430>_,

and I will shew
<02324> (8741)

unto the king
<04430>

the interpretation
<06591>_.

2:25

Then
<0116>

Arioch
<0746>

brought in
<05954> (8684)

Daniel
<01841>

before
<06925>

the king
<04430>

in haste
<0927> (8726)_,

and said
<0560> (8754)

thus
<03652>

unto him, I have found
<07912> (8684)

a man
<01400>

of the captives
<01123> <01547>

of
<04481>

Judah
<03061>_,

that will make known
<03046> (8681)

unto the king
<04430>

the interpretation
<06591>_.

{I have...: Chaldee, That I have found} {captives...: Chaldee, children of the captivity of Judah}

2:26

The king
<04430>

answered
<06032> (8750)

and said
<0560> (8750)

to Daniel
<01841>_,

whose name
<08036>

[was] Belteshazzar
<01096>_,

Art
<0383>

thou able
<03546> (8751)

to make known
<03046> (8682)

unto me the dream
<02493>

which I have seen
<02370> (8754)_,

and the interpretation
<06591>

thereof?

2:27

Daniel
<01841>

answered
<06032> (8750)

in the presence
<06925>

of the king
<04430>_,

and said
<0560> (8750)_,

The secret
<07328>

which the king
<04430>

hath demanded
<07593> (8751)

cannot
<03202> (8750) <03809>

the wise
<02445>

[men], the astrologers
<0826>_,

the magicians
<02749>_,

the soothsayers
<01505> (8750)_,

shew
<02324> (8682)

unto the king
<04430>_;

2:28

But
<01297>

there is
<0383>

a God
<0426>

in heaven
<08065>

that revealeth
<01541> (8751)

secrets
<07328>_,

and maketh known
<03046> (8684)

to the king
<04430>

Nebuchadnezzar
<05020>

what
<04101>

shall be
<01934> (8748)

in the latter
<0320>

days
<03118>_.

Thy dream
<02493>_,

and the visions
<02376>

of thy head
<07217>

upon
<05922>

thy bed
<04903>_,

are these
<01836>_;

{maketh...: Chaldee, hath made known}

2:29

As for thee
<0607>_,

O king
<04430>_,

thy thoughts
<07476>

came
<05559> (8760)

[into thy mind] upon
<05922>

thy bed
<04903>_,

what
<04101>

should come to pass
<01934> (8748)

hereafter
<0311> <01836>_:

and he that revealeth
<01541> (8751)

secrets
<07328>

maketh known
<03046> (8684)

to thee what
<04101>

shall come to pass
<01934> (8748)_.

{came: Chaldee, came up}

2:30

But as for me
<0576>_,

this
<01836>

secret
<07328>

is not
<03809>

revealed
<01541> (8752)

to me for [any] wisdom
<02452>

that I have
<0383>

more than
<04481>

any
<03606>

living
<02417>_,

but
<03861>

for [their] sakes
<01701>

that
<05922>

shall make known
<03046> (8681)

the interpretation
<06591>

to the king
<04430>_,

and that thou mightest know
<03046> (8748)

the thoughts
<07476>

of thy heart
<03825>_.

{but for...: or, but for the intent that the interpretation may be made known to the king}
