Daniel 2:19-49

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}

2:31

Thou
<0607>_,

O king
<04430>_,

sawest
<01934> (8754) <02370> (8751)_,

and behold
<0431>

a great
<02298> <07690>

image
<06755>_.

This
<01797>

great
<07229>

image
<06755>_,

whose brightness
<02122>

[was] excellent
<03493>_,

stood
<06966> (8750)

before
<06903>

thee; and the form
<07299>

thereof [was] terrible
<01763> (8753)_.

{sawest: Chaldee, wast seeing}

2:32

This image's
<06755>

head
<07217>

[was] of fine
<02869>

gold
<01722>_,

his breast
<02306>

and his arms
<01872>

of silver
<03702>_,

his belly
<04577>

and his thighs
<03410>

of brass
<05174>_,

{thighs: or, sides}

2:33

His legs
<08243>

of iron
<06523>_,

his feet
<07271>

part
<04481>

of iron
<06523>

and part
<04481>

of clay
<02635>_.

2:34

Thou sawest
<02370> (8751) <01934> (8754)

till
<05705>

that a stone
<069>

was cut out
<01505> (8728)

without
<03809>

hands
<03028>_,

which smote
<04223> (8754)

the image
<06755>

upon
<05922>

his feet
<07271>

[that were] of iron
<06523>

and clay
<02635>_,

and brake
<01855> (0)

them
<01994>

to pieces
<01855> (8684)_.

{without...: or, which was not in hands}

2:35

Then
<0116>

was the iron
<06523>_,

the clay
<02635>_,

the brass
<05174>_,

the silver
<03702>_,

and the gold
<01722>_,

broken to pieces
<01855> (8754) (8676) <01751> (8754)

together
<02298>_,

and became
<01934> (8754)

like the chaff
<05784>

of
<04481>

the summer
<07007>

threshingfloors
<0147>_;

and the wind
<07308>

carried
<05376> (0)

them
<01994>

away
<05376> (8754)_,

that
<03606>

no
<03809>

place
<0870>

was found
<07912> (8728)

for them: and the stone
<069>

that smote
<04223> (8754)

the image
<06755>

became
<01934> (8754)

a great
<07229>

mountain
<02906>_,

and filled
<04391> (8754)

the whole
<03606>

earth
<0772>_.

2:36

This
<01836>

[is] the dream
<02493>_;

and we will tell
<0560> (8748)

the interpretation
<06591>

thereof before
<06925>

the king
<04430>_.

2:37

Thou
<0607>_,

O king
<04430>_,

[art] a king
<04430>

of kings
<04430>_:

for the God
<0426>

of heaven
<08065>

hath given
<03052> (8754)

thee a kingdom
<04437>_,

power
<02632>_,

and strength
<08632>_,

and glory
<03367>_.

2:38

And wheresoever
<03606>

the children
<01123>

of men
<0606>

dwell
<01753> (8748)_,

the beasts
<02423>

of the field
<01251>

and the fowls
<05776>

of the heaven
<08065>

hath he given
<03052> (8754)

into thine hand
<03028>_,

and hath made thee ruler
<07981> (8684)

over them all
<03606>_.

Thou
<0607>

[art] this head
<07217>

of gold
<01722>_.

2:39

And after
<0870>

thee shall arise
<06966> (8748)

another
<0317>

kingdom
<04437>

inferior
<0772>

to thee
<04481>_,

and another
<0317>

third
<08523>

kingdom
<04437>

of brass
<05174>_,

which shall bear rule
<07981> (8748)

over all
<03606>

the earth
<0772>_.

2:40

And the fourth
<07244>

kingdom
<04437>

shall be
<01934> (8748)

strong
<08624>

as iron
<06523>_:

forasmuch as iron
<06523>

breaketh in pieces
<01855> (8683)

and subdueth
<02827> (8751)

all
<03606>

[things]: and as
<06903>

iron
<06523>

that breaketh
<07490> (8750)

all
<03606>

these
<0459>_,

shall it break in pieces
<01855> (8681)

and bruise
<07490> (8748)_.

2:41

And whereas thou sawest
<02370> (8754)

the feet
<07271>

and toes
<0677>_,

part
<04481>

of potters
<06353>_'

clay
<02635>_,

and part
<04481>

of iron
<06523>_,

the kingdom
<04437>

shall be
<01934> (8748)

divided
<06386> (8752)_;

but
<04481> (0)

there shall be
<01934> (8748)

in it of
<04481>

the strength
<05326>

of the iron
<06523>_,

forasmuch as
<03606> <06903>

thou sawest
<02370> (8754)

the iron
<06523>

mixed
<06151> (8743)

with miry
<02917>

clay
<02635>_.

2:42

And [as] the toes
<0677>

of the feet
<07271>

[were] part
<04481>

of iron
<06523>_,

and part
<04481>

of clay
<02635>_,

[so] the kingdom
<04437>

shall be
<01934> (8748)

partly
<04481> <07118>

strong
<08624>_,

and partly
<04481> <07118>

broken
<08406> (8750)_.

{broken: or, brittle}

2:43

And whereas
<01768>

thou sawest
<02370> (8754)

iron
<06523>

mixed
<06151> (8743)

with miry
<02917>

clay
<02635>_,

they shall mingle themselves
<01934> (8748) <06151> (8723)

with the seed
<02234>

of men
<0606>_:

but they shall
<01934> (8748)

not
<03809>

cleave
<01693> (8751)

one
<01836>

to
<05974>

another
<01836>_,

even
<01888>

as iron
<06523>

is not
<03809>

mixed
<06151> (8723)

with clay
<02635>_.

{one...: Chaldee, this with this}

2:44

And in the days
<03118>

of these
<0581>

kings
<04430>

shall the God
<0426>

of heaven
<08065>

set up
<06966> (8681)

a kingdom
<04437>_,

which shall never
<05957> <03809>

be destroyed
<02255> (8721)_:

and the kingdom
<04437>

shall not
<03809>

be left
<07662> (8721)

to other
<0321>

people
<05972>_,

[but] it shall break in pieces
<01855> (8681)

and consume
<05487> (8681)

all
<03606>

these
<0459>

kingdoms
<04437>_,

and it
<01932>

shall stand
<06966> (8748)

for ever
<05957>_.

{the days: Chaldee, their days} {the kingdom: Chaldee, the kingdom thereof}

2:45

Forasmuch as
<03606> <06903>

thou sawest
<02370> (8754)

that the stone
<069>

was cut out
<01505> (8728)

of the mountain
<02906>

without
<03809>

hands
<03028>_,

and that it brake in pieces
<01855> (8684)

the iron
<06523>_,

the brass
<05174>_,

the clay
<02635>_,

the silver
<03702>_,

and the gold
<01722>_;

the great
<07229>

God
<0426>

hath made known
<03046> (8684)

to the king
<04430>

what
<04101>

shall come to pass
<01934> (8748)

hereafter
<0311> <01836>_:

and the dream
<02493>

[is] certain
<03330>_,

and the interpretation
<06591>

thereof sure
<0540> (8683)_.

{without...: or, which was not in hands} {hereafter: Chaldee, after this}

2:46

Then
<0116>

the king
<04430>

Nebuchadnezzar
<05020>

fell
<05308> (8754)

upon
<05922>

his face
<0600>_,

and worshipped
<05457> (8754)

Daniel
<01841>_,

and commanded
<0560> (8754)

that they should offer
<05260> (8742)

an oblation
<04504>

and sweet odours
<05208>

unto him.

2:47

The king
<04430>

answered
<06032> (8750)

unto Daniel
<01841>_,

and said
<0560> (8750)_,

Of
<04481>

a truth
<07187>

[it is], that
<01768>

your God
<0426>

[is] a God
<0426>

of gods
<0426>_,

and a Lord
<04756>

of kings
<04430>_,

and a revealer
<01541> (8751)

of secrets
<07328>_,

seeing thou couldest
<03202> (8754)

reveal
<01541> (8749)

this
<01836>

secret
<07328>_.

2:48

Then
<0116>

the king
<04430>

made
<07236> (0)

Daniel
<01841>

a great man
<07236> (8745)_,

and gave
<03052> (8754)

him many
<07690>

great
<07260>

gifts
<04978>_,

and made him ruler
<07981> (8684)

over
<05922>

the whole
<03606>

province
<04083>

of Babylon
<0895>_,

and chief
<07229>

of the governors
<05460>

over
<05922>

all
<03606>

the wise
<02445>

[men] of Babylon
<0895>_.

2:49

Then Daniel
<01841>

requested
<01156> (8754)

of
<04481>

the king
<04430>_,

and he set
<04483> (8745)

Shadrach
<07715>_,

Meshach
<04336>_,

and Abednego
<05665>_,

over
<05922>

the affairs
<05673>

of the province
<04083>

of Babylon
<0895>_:

but Daniel
<01841>

[sat] in the gate
<08651>

of the king
<04430>_.
