2:40 Then let our countenances[04758] be looked upon[07200][8735] before[06440] thee, and the countenance[04758] of the children[03206] that eat[0398][8802] of the portion[06598][00] of the king's[04428] meat[06598]: and as thou seest[07200][8799], deal[06213][8798] with thy servants[05650].
2:41 So he consented[08085][8799] to them in this matter[01697], and proved[05254][8762] them ten[06235] days[03117].
2:42 And at the end[07117] of ten[06235] days[03117] their countenances[04758] appeared[07200][8738] fairer[02896] and fatter[01277] in flesh[01320] than all the children[03206] which did eat[0398][8802] the portion[06598][00] of the king's[04428] meat[06598].
2:43 Thus Melzar[04453] took away[05375][8802] the portion of their meat[06598], and the wine[03196] that they should drink[04960]; and gave[05414][8802] them pulse[02235].
2:44 As for these four[0702] children[03206], God[0430] gave[05414][8804] them knowledge[04093] and skill[07919][8687] in all learning[05612] and wisdom[02451]: and Daniel[01840] had understanding[0995][8689] in all visions[02377] and dreams[02472]. Daniel...: or, he made Daniel understand
2:45 Now at the end[07117] of the days[03117] that the king[04428] had said[0559][8804] he should bring[0935][8687] them in, then the prince[08269] of the eunuchs[05631] brought[0935][8686] them in before[06440] Nebuchadnezzar[05019].
2:46 And the king[04428] communed[01696][8762] with them; and among them all was found[04672][8738] none like Daniel[01840], Hananiah[02608], Mishael[04332], and Azariah[05838]: therefore stood[05975][8799] they before[06440] the king[04428].
2:47 And in all matters[01697] of wisdom[02451] and understanding[0998], that the king[04428] enquired[01245][8765] of them, he found[04672][8799] them ten times[06235] better[03027] than all the magicians[02748] and  astrologers[0825] that were in all his realm[04438]. wisdom...: Heb. wisdom of understanding
2:48 And Daniel[01840] continued even unto the first[0259] year[08141] of king[04428] Cyrus[03566].
2:49 And in the second[08147] year[08141] of the reign[04438] of Nebuchadnezzar[05019] Nebuchadnezzar[05019] dreamed[02492][8804] dreams[02472], wherewith his spirit[07307] was troubled[06470][8691], and his sleep[08142] brake[01961][8738] from him.
3:1 Then the king[04428] commanded[0559][8799] to call[07121][8800] the magicians[02748], and the astrologers[0825], and the sorcerers[03784][8764], and the Chaldeans[03778], for to shew[05046][8687] the king[04428] his dreams[02472]. So they came[0935][8799] and stood[05975][8799] before[06440] the king[04428].
3:2 And the king[04428] said[0559][8799] unto them, I have dreamed[02492][8804] a dream[02472], and my spirit[07307] was troubled[06470][8735] to know[03045][8800] the dream[02472].
3:3 Then spake[01696][8762] the Chaldeans[03778] to the king[04428] in Syriack[0762], O king[04430], live[02418][8747] for ever[05957]: tell[0560][8747] thy servants[05649] the dream[02493], and we will shew[02324][8741] the interpretation[06591]. O king...: (Chaldee, to the end of chapter seven)
3:4 The king[04430] answered[06032][8750] and said[0560][8750] to the Chaldeans[03779], The thing[04406] is gone[0230][8754] from me[04481]: if[02006] ye will not[03809] make known[03046][8681] unto me the dream[02493], with the interpretation[06591] thereof, ye shall be cut[05648][8725] in pieces[01917], and your houses[01005] shall be made[07761][8725] a dunghill[05122]. cut...: Chaldee, made pieces
3:5 But if[02006] ye shew[02324][8681] the dream[02493], and the interpretation[06591] thereof, ye shall receive[06902][8741] of[04481] me[06925] gifts[04978] and rewards[05023] and great[07690] honour[03367]: therefore[03861] shew[02324][8680] me the dream[02493], and the interpretation[06591] thereof. rewards: or, fee
3:6 They answered[06032][8754] again[08579] and said[0560][8750], Let the king[04430] tell[0560][8748] his servants[05649] the dream[02493], and we will shew[02324][8681] the interpretation[06591] of it.
3:7 The king[04430] answered[06032][8750] and said[0560][8750], I[0576] know[03046][8751] of[04481] certainty[03330] that ye[0608] would gain[02084][8750] the time[05732], because[06903][03606] ye see[02370][8754] the thing[04406] is gone[0230][8754] from[04481] me. gain: Chaldee, buy
3:8 But if[02006] ye will not[03809] make known[03046][8681] unto me the dream[02493], there is but one[01932][02298] decree[01882] for you: for ye have prepared[02164][8724] lying[03538] and corrupt[07844][8752] words[04406] to speak[0560][8749] before[06925] me, till[05705] the time[05732] be changed[08133][8721]: therefore[03861] tell[0560][8747] me the dream[02493], and I shall know[03046][8748] that[01768] ye can shew[02324][8681] me the interpretation[06591] thereof.
3:9 The Chaldeans[03779] answered[06032][8754] before[06925] the king[04430], and said[0560][8750], There is[0383] not[03809] a man[0606] upon[05922] the earth[03007] that can[03202][8748] shew[02324][8682] the king's[04430] matter[04406]: therefore[06903][01768] there is no[03809] king[04430], lord[07229], nor ruler[07990], that asked[07593][8754] such[01836] things[04406] at any[03606] magician[02749], or astrologer[0826], or Chaldean[03779].
3:10 And it is a rare[03358] thing[04406] that the king[04430] requireth[07593][8751], and there is[0383] none[03809] other[0321] that can shew[02324][8741] it before[06925] the king[04430], except[03861] the gods[0426], whose dwelling[04070] is[0383] not[03809] with[05974] flesh[01321].
3:11 For[06903] this[01836] cause[03606] the king[04430] was angry[01149][8754] and very[07690] furious[07108][8754], and commanded[0560][8754] to destroy[07][8682] all[03606] the wise[02445] men of Babylon[0895].
3:12 And the decree[01882] went forth[05312][8754] that the wise[02445] men should be slain[06992][8726]; and they sought[01156][8754] Daniel[01841] and his fellows[02269] to be slain[06992][8723].
3:13 Then[0116] Daniel[01841] answered[08421][8684] with counsel[05843] and wisdom[02942] to Arioch[0746] the captain[07229] of[01768] the king's[04430] guard[02877], which was gone forth[05312][8754] to slay[06992][8742] the wise[02445] men of Babylon[0895]: answered...: Chaldee, returned captain...: or, chief marshal: Chaldee, chief of the executioners, or, slaughtermen
3:14 He answered[06032][8750] and said[0560][8750] to Arioch[0746] the king's[04430] captain[07990], Why[04101][05922] is the decree[01882] so hasty[02685][8683] from[04481][06925] the king[04430]? Then[0116] Arioch[0746] made the thing[04406] known[03046][8684] to Daniel[01841].
3:15 Then Daniel[01841] went in[05954][8754], and desired[01156][8754] of[04481] the king[04430] that he would give[05415][8748] him time[02166], and that he would shew[02324][8682] the king[04430] the interpretation[06591].
3:16 Then[0116] Daniel[01841] went[0236][8754] to his house[01005], and made the thing[04406] known[03046][8684] to Hananiah[02608], Mishael[04333], and Azariah[05839], his companions[02269]:
3:17 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
3:18 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].
3:19 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:
3:20 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]:
3:21 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].
3:22 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].
3:23 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].
3:24 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
3:25 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?
3:26 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];
3:27 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
3:28 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
3:29 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
3:30 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
4:1 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
4:2 His legs[08243] of iron[06523], his feet[07271] part[04481] of iron[06523] and part[04481] of clay[02635].
4:3 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][00] them[01994] to pieces[01855][8684]. without...: or, which was not in hands
4:4 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][00] 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].
4:5 This[01836] is the dream[02493]; and we will tell[0560][8748] the interpretation[06591] thereof before[06925] the king[04430].
4:6 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].
4:7 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].
4:8 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].
4:9 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].
4:10 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][00] 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].
4:11 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
4:12 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
4:13 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
4:14 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
4:15 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.
4:16 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].
4:17 Then[0116] the king[04430] made[07236][00] 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].
4:18 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].
4:19 Nebuchadnezzar[05020] the king[04430] made[05648][8754] an image[06755] of gold[01722], whose height[07314] was threescore[08361] cubits[0521], and the breadth[06613] thereof six[08353] cubits[0521]: he set it up[06966][8684] in the plain[01236] of Dura[01757], in the province[04083] of Babylon[0895].
4:20 Then Nebuchadnezzar[05020] the king[04430] sent[07972][8754] to gather together[03673][8749] the princes[0324], the governors[05460], and the captains[06347], the judges[0148], the treasurers[01411], the counsellors[01884], the sheriffs[08614], and all[03606] the rulers[07984] of the provinces[04083], to come[0858][8749] to the dedication[02597] of the image[06755] which Nebuchadnezzar[05020] the king[04430] had set up[06966][8684].
4:21 Then[0116] the princes[0324], the governors[05460], and captains[06347], the judges[0148], the treasurers[01411], the counsellors[01884], the sheriffs[08614], and all[03606] the rulers[07984] of the provinces[04083], were gathered together[03673][8723] unto the dedication[02597] of the image[06755] that Nebuchadnezzar[05020] the king[04430] had set up[06966][8684]; and they stood[06966][8750] before[06903] the image[06755] that Nebuchadnezzar[05020] had set up[06966][8684].
4:22 Then an herald[03744] cried[07123][8751] aloud[02429], To you it is commanded[0560][8750], O people[05972], nations[0524], and languages[03961], aloud: Chaldee, with might it...: Chaldee, they command
4:23 That at what time[05732] ye hear[08086][8748] the sound[07032] of the cornet[07162], flute[04953], harp[07030][8675][07030], sackbut[05443], psaltery[06460], dulcimer[05481], and all[03606] kinds[02178] of musick[02170], ye fall down[05308][8748] and worship[05457][8748] the golden[01722] image[06755] that Nebuchadnezzar[05020] the king[04430] hath set up[06966][8684]: dulcimer: or, singing: Chaldee, symphony
4:24 And whoso[04479] falleth[05308][00] not[03809] down[05308][8748] and worshippeth[05457][8748] shall the same hour[08160] be cast[07412][8729] into the midst[01459] of a burning[03345][8751] fiery[05135] furnace[0861].
4:25 Therefore[06903][01836] at that time[02166], when[01768] all[03606] the people[05972] heard[08086][8750] the sound[07032] of the cornet[07162], flute[04953], harp[07030][8675][07030], sackbut[05443], psaltery[06460], and all[03606] kinds[02178] of musick[02170], all[03606] the people[05972], the nations[0524], and the languages[03961], fell down[05308][8750] and worshipped[05457][8750] the golden[01722] image[06755] that Nebuchadnezzar[05020] the king[04430] had set up[06966][8684].
4:26 Wherefore[06903][03606] at that[01836] time[02166] certain[01400] Chaldeans[03779] came near[07127][8754], and accused[07170][0399][8754] the Jews[03062].
4:27 They spake[06032][8754] and said[0560][8750] to the king[04430] Nebuchadnezzar[05020], O king[04430], live[02418][8747] for ever[05957].
4:28 Thou[0607], O king[04430], hast made[07761][8754] a decree[02942], that every[03606] man[0606] that shall hear[08086][8748] the sound[07032] of the cornet[07162], flute[04953], harp[07030][8675][07030], sackbut[05443], psaltery[06460], and dulcimer[05481][8675][05481], and all[03606] kinds[02178] of musick[02170], shall fall down[05308][8748] and worship[05457][8748] the golden[01722] image[06755]: dulcimer: or, singing: Chaldee, symphony
4:29 And whoso[04479] falleth[05308][00] not[03809] down[05308][8748] and worshippeth[05457][8748], that he should be cast[07412][8729] into the midst[01459] of a burning[03345][8751] fiery[05135] furnace[0861].
4:30 There are[0383] certain[01400] Jews[03062] whom[03487] thou hast set[04483][8745] over[05922] the affairs[05673] of the province[04083] of Babylon[0895], Shadrach[07715], Meshach[04336], and Abednego[05665]; these[0479] men[01400], O king[04430], have[07761][8754] not[03809] regarded[02942] thee[05922]: they serve[06399][8750] not[03809] thy gods[0426], nor[03809] worship[05457][8750] the golden[01722] image[06755] which thou hast set up[06966][8684]. have...: Chaldee, have set no regard upon thee
4:31 Then[0116] Nebuchadnezzar[05020] in his rage[07266] and fury[02528] commanded[0560][8754] to bring[0858][8682] Shadrach[07715], Meshach[04336], and Abednego[05665]. Then[0116] they brought[0858][8717] these[0479] men[01400] before[06925] the king[04430].
4:32 Nebuchadnezzar[05020] spake[06032][8750] and said[0560][8750] unto them, Is it true[06656], O Shadrach[07715], Meshach[04336], and Abednego[05665], do not[03809] ye[0383] serve[06399][8750] my gods[0426], nor[03809] worship[05457][8750] the golden[01722] image[06755] which I have set[06966][8684] up? true: or, of purpose
4:33 Now[03705] if[02006] ye be[0383] ready[06263] that at what time[05732] ye hear[08086][8748] the sound[07032] of the cornet[07162], flute[04953], harp[07030][8675][07030], sackbut[05443], psaltery[06460], and dulcimer[05481], and all[03606] kinds[02178] of musick[02170], ye fall down[05308][8748] and worship[05457][8748] the image[06755] which I have made[05648][8754]; well : but if[02006] ye worship[05457][8748] not[03809], ye shall be cast[07412][8729] the same hour[08160] into the midst[01459] of a burning[03345][8751] fiery[05135] furnace[0861]; and who[04479] is that God[0426] that shall deliver[07804][8755] you out of[04481] my hands[03028]? dulcimer: or, singing: Chaldee, symphony
4:34 Shadrach[07715], Meshach[04336], and Abednego[05665], answered[06032][8754] and said[0560][8750] to the king[04430], O Nebuchadnezzar[05020], we[0586] are not[03809] careful[02818][8750] to answer[08421][8682] thee in[05922] this[01836] matter[06600].
4:35 If[02006] it be so , our God[0426] whom we[0586] serve[06399][8750] is[0383] able[03202][8750] to deliver[07804][8756] us from[04481] the burning[03345][8751] fiery[05135] furnace[0861], and[04481][00] he will deliver[07804][8755] us out of[04481] thine hand[03028], O king[04430].
4:36 But if[02006] not[03809], be it[01934][8748] known[03046][8752] unto thee, O king[04430], that we will[0383] not[03809] serve[06399][8750] thy gods[0426], nor[03809] worship[05457][8748] the golden[01722] image[06755] which thou hast set up[06966][8684].
4:37 Then[0116] was Nebuchadnezzar[05020] full[04391][8728] of fury[02528], and the form[06755] of his visage[0600] was changed[08133][8724] against[05922] Shadrach[07715], Meshach[04336], and Abednego[05665]: therefore  he spake[06032][8750], and commanded[0560][8750] that they should heat[0228][8749] the furnace[0861] one[02298] seven times[07655] more[05922] than[01768] it was wont[02370][8752] to be heated[0228][8749]. full: Chaldee, filled
5:1 And he commanded[0560][8754] the most[02429] mighty[01401] men[01400] that were in his army[02429] to bind[03729][8742] Shadrach[07715], Meshach[04336], and Abednego[05665], and to cast[07412][8749]  them into the burning[03345][8751] fiery[05135] furnace[0861]. most...: Chaldee, mighty of strength
5:2 Then[0116] these[0479] men[01400] were bound[03729][8760] in their coats[05622], their hosen[06361][8675][06361], and their hats[03737], and their other garments[03831], and were cast[07412][8752] into the midst[01459] of the burning[03345][8751] fiery[05135] furnace[0861]. coats: or, mantles hats: or, turbans
5:3 Therefore[03606][06903] because[04481][01836] the king's[04430] commandment[04406] was urgent[02685][8683], and the furnace[0861] exceeding[03493] hot[0228][8752], the flame[07631] of the fire[05135] slew[06992][8745] those[0479] men[01400][01994] that took up[05267][8684] Shadrach[07715], Meshach[04336], and Abednego[05665]. commandment: Chaldee, word flame: or, spark
5:4 And these[0479] three[08532] men[01400], Shadrach[07715], Meshach[04336], and Abednego[05665], fell down[05308][8754] bound[03729][8743] into the midst[01459] of the burning[03345][8751] fiery[05135] furnace[0861].
5:5 Then[0116] Nebuchadnezzar[05020] the king[04430] was astonied[08429][8754], and rose up[06966][8754] in haste[0927][8726], and spake[06032][8750], and said[0560][8750] unto his counsellors[01907], Did not[03809] we cast[07412][8754] three[08532] men[01400] bound[03729][8743] into the midst[01459] of the fire[05135]? They answered[06032][8750] and said[0560][8750] unto the king[04430], True[03330], O king[04430]. counsellors: or, governors
5:6 He answered[06032][8750] and said[0560][8750], Lo[01888], I[0576] see[02370][8751] four[0703] men[01400] loose[08271][8750], walking[01981][8683] in the midst[01459] of the fire[05135], and they have[0383] no[03809] hurt[02257]; and the form[07299] of the fourth[07244] is like[01821][8751] the Son[01247] of God[0426]. they...: Chaldee, there is no hurt in them
5:7 Then[0116] Nebuchadnezzar[05020] came near[07127][8754] to the mouth[08651] of the burning[03345][8751] fiery[05135] furnace[0861], and spake[06032][8750], and said[0560][8750], Shadrach[07715], Meshach[04336], and Abednego[05665], ye servants[05649] of the most high[05943] God[0426], come forth[05312][8747], and come[0858][8747] hither . Then[0116] Shadrach[07715], Meshach[04336], and Abednego[05665], came forth[05312][8750] of[04481] the midst[01459] of the fire[05135]. mouth: Chaldee, door
5:8 And the princes[0324], governors[05460], and captains[06347], and the king's[04430] counsellors[01907], being gathered together[03673][8723], saw[02370][8751] these[0479] men[01400], upon whose bodies[01655] the fire[05135] had no[03809] power[07981][8754], nor[03809] was an hair[08177] of their head[07217] singed[02761][8724], neither[03809] were their coats[05622] changed[08133][8754], nor[03809] the smell[07382] of fire[05135] had passed[05709][8754] on them.
5:9 Then Nebuchadnezzar[05020] spake[06032][8750], and said[0560][8750], Blessed[01289][8752] be the God[0426] of Shadrach[07715], Meshach[04336], and Abednego[05665], who hath sent[07972][8754] his angel[04398], and delivered[07804][8758] his servants[05649] that trusted[07365][8702] in him[05922], and have changed[08133][8745] the king's[04430] word[04406], and yielded[03052][8754] their bodies[01655], that they might not[03809] serve[06399][8748] nor[03809] worship[05457][8748] any[03606] god[0426], except[03861] their own God[0426].
5:10 Therefore I[04481] make[07761][8752] a decree[02942], That every[03606] people[05972], nation[0524], and language[03961], which speak[0560][8748] any thing amiss[07960][8675][07955] against[05922] the God[0426] of Shadrach[07715], Meshach[04336], and Abednego[05665], shall be cut[05648][8725] in pieces[01917], and their houses[01005] shall be made[07739][8721] a dunghill[05122]: because[06903][03606] there is[0383] no[03809] other[0321] God[0426] that can[03202][8748] deliver[05338][8682] after this[01836] sort. I make...: Chaldee, a decree is made by me any...: Chaldee, error cut...: Chaldee, made pieces
5:11 Then[0116] the king[04430] promoted[06744][8684] Shadrach[07715], Meshach[04336], and Abednego[05665], in the province[04083] of Babylon[0895]. promoted: Chaldee, made to prosper
5:12 Nebuchadnezzar[05020] the king[04430], unto all[03606] people[05972], nations[0524], and languages[03961], that dwell[01753][8748] in all[03606] the earth[0772]; Peace[08001] be multiplied[07680][8748] unto you.
5:13 I thought[06925] it good[08232][8754] to shew[02324][8682] the signs[0852] and wonders[08540] that the high[05943] God[0426] hath wrought[05648][8754] toward[05974] me. I thought...: Chaldee, It was seemly before me
5:14 How[04101] great[07260] are his signs[0852]! and how[04101] mighty[08624] are his wonders[08540]! his kingdom[04437] is an everlasting[05957] kingdom[04437], and his dominion[07985] is from[05974] generation[01859] to generation[01859].
5:15 I[0576] Nebuchadnezzar[05020] was[01934][8754] at rest[07954][8752] in mine house[01005], and flourishing[07487] in my palace[01965]:
5:16 I saw[02370][8754] a dream[02493] which made me afraid[01763][8741], and the thoughts[02031] upon[05922] my bed[04903] and the visions[02376] of my head[07217] troubled[0927][8792] me.
5:17 Therefore[04481][00] made[07761][8752] I[04481] a decree[02942] to bring[05954][8682] in all[03606] the wise[02445] men of Babylon[0895] before[06925] me, that they might make known[03046][8681] unto me the interpretation[06591] of the dream[02493].
5:18 Then[0116] came[05954][8750] in the magicians[02749], the astrologers[0826], the Chaldeans[03779], and the soothsayers[01505][8750]: and I[0576] told[0560][8750] the dream[02493] before[06925] them; but they did not[03809] make known[03046][8683] unto me the interpretation[06591] thereof.
5:19 But at[05705] the last[0318] Daniel[01841] came in[05922] before me[06925], whose name[08036] was Belteshazzar[01096], according to the name[08036] of my god[0426], and in whom is the spirit[07308] of the holy[06922] gods[0426]: and before[06925] him I told[0560][8754] the dream[02493], saying ,
5:20 O Belteshazzar[01096], master[07229] of the magicians[02749], because I[0576] know[03046][8754] that the spirit[07308] of the holy[06922] gods[0426] is in thee, and no[03606][03809] secret[07328] troubleth[0598][8750] thee, tell[0560][8747] me the visions[02376] of my dream[02493] that I have seen[02370][8754], and the interpretation[06591] thereof.
5:21 Thus were the visions[02376] of mine head[07217] in[05922] my bed[04903]; I saw[01934][8754][02370][8751], and behold[0431] a tree[0363] in the midst[01459] of the earth[0772], and the height[07314] thereof  was great[07690]. I saw: Chaldee, I was seeing
5:22 The tree[0363] grew[07236][8754], and was strong[08631][8754], and the height[07314] thereof reached[04291][8748] unto heaven[08065], and the sight[02379] thereof to the end[05491] of all[03606] the earth[0772]:
5:23 The leaves[06074] thereof were fair[08209], and the fruit[04] thereof much[07690], and in it was meat[04203] for all[03606]: the beasts[02423] of the field[01251] had shadow[02927][8681] under[08460] it, and the fowls[06853] of the heaven[08065] dwelt[01753][8748] in the boughs[06056] thereof, and all[03606] flesh[01321] was fed[02110][8729] of it[04481].
5:24 I saw[01934][8754][02370][8751] in the visions[02376] of my head[07217] upon[05922] my bed[04903], and, behold[0431], a watcher[05894] and an holy one[06922] came down[05182][8750] from[04481] heaven[08065];
5:25 He cried[07123][8751] aloud[02429], and said[0560][8750] thus[03652], Hew down[01414] the tree[0363], and cut off[07113][8745] his branches[06056], shake off[05426][8680] his leaves[06074], and scatter[0921][8745] his fruit[04]: let the beasts[02423] get away[05111][8748] from[04481] under it[08479], and the fowls[06853] from[04481] his branches[06056]: aloud: Chaldee, with might
5:26 Nevertheless[01297] leave[07662][8747] the stump[06136] of his roots[08330] in the earth[0772], even with a band[0613] of iron[06523] and brass[05174], in the tender grass[01883] of the field[01251]; and let it be wet[06647][8721] with the dew[02920] of heaven[08065], and let his portion[02508] be with[05974] the beasts[02423] in the grass[06211] of the earth[0772]:
5:27 Let his heart[03825] be changed[08133][8741] from[04481] man's[0606], and let a beast's[02423] heart[03825] be given[03052][8725] unto him; and let seven[07655] times[05732] pass[02499] over[05922] him.
5:28 This matter[06600] is by the decree[01510] of the watchers[05894], and the demand[07595] by the word[03983] of the holy ones[06922]: to[05705] the intent[01701] that the living[02417] may know[03046][8748] that the most High[05943] ruleth[07990] in the kingdom[04437] of men[0606], and giveth[05415][8748] it to whomsoever[04479] he will[06634][8748], and setteth up[06966][8681] over[05922] it the basest[08215] of men[0606].
5:29 This[01836] dream[02493] I[0576] king[04430] Nebuchadnezzar[05020] have seen[02370][8754]. Now thou[0607], O Belteshazzar[01096], declare[0560][8747] the interpretation[06591] thereof, forasmuch as[06903] all[03606] the wise[02445] men of my kingdom[04437] are not[03809] able[03202][8750] to make known[03046][8682] unto me the interpretation[06591]: but thou[0607] art able[03546][8751]; for the spirit[07308] of the holy[06922] gods[0426] is in thee.
5:30 Then[0116] Daniel[01841], whose name[08036] was Belteshazzar[01096], was astonied[08075][8733] for one[02298] hour[08160], and his thoughts[07476] troubled[0927][8792] him. The king[04430] spake[06032][8750], and said[0560][8750], Belteshazzar[01096], let not[0409] the dream[02493], or the interpretation[06591] thereof, trouble[0927][8792] thee. Belteshazzar[01096] answered[06032][8750] and said[0560][8750], My lord[04756], the dream[02493] be to them that hate[08131][8750] thee, and the interpretation[06591] thereof to thine enemies[06146].
5:31 The tree[0363] that thou sawest[02370][8754], which grew[07236][8754], and was strong[08631][8754], whose height[07314] reached[04291][8748] unto the heaven[08065], and the sight[02379] thereof to all[03606] the earth[0772];
6:1 Whose leaves[06074] were fair[08209], and the fruit[04] thereof much[07690], and in it was meat[04203] for all[03606]; under[08460] which the beasts[02423] of the field[01251] dwelt[01753][8748], and upon whose branches[06056] the fowls[06853] of the heaven[08065] had their habitation[07932][8748]:
6:2 It is thou[0607], O king[04430], that art grown[07236][8754] and become strong[08631][8748]: for thy greatness[07238] is grown[07236][8754], and reacheth[04291][8754] unto heaven[08065], and thy dominion[07985] to the end[05491] of the earth[0772].
6:3 And whereas the king[04430] saw[02370][8754] a watcher[05894] and an holy one[06922] coming down[05182][8750] from[04481] heaven[08065], and saying[0560][8750], Hew[01414][00] the tree[0363] down[01414], and destroy[02255][8740] it; yet[01297] leave[07662][8747] the stump[06136] of the roots[08330] thereof in the earth[0772], even with a band[0613] of iron[06523] and brass[05174], in the tender grass[01883] of the field[01251]; and let it be wet[06647][8721] with the dew[02920] of heaven[08065], and let his portion[02508] be with[05974] the beasts[02423] of the field[01251], till[05705] seven[07655] times[05732] pass[02499] over[05922] him;
6:4 This[01836] is the interpretation[06591], O king[04430], and this[01932] is the decree[01510] of the most High[05943], which is come[04291][8754] upon[05922] my lord[04756] the king[04430]:
6:5 That they shall drive[02957][8751] thee from[04481] men[0606], and thy dwelling[04070] shall be[01934][8748] with[05974] the beasts[02423] of the field[01251], and they shall make thee to eat[02939][8748] grass[06211] as oxen[08450], and they shall wet[06647][8743] thee with the dew[02920] of heaven[08065], and seven[07655] times[05732] shall pass[02499] over[05922] thee, till[05705] thou know[03046][8748] that the most High[05943] ruleth[07990] in the kingdom[04437] of men[0606], and giveth[05415][8748] it to whomsoever[04479] he will[06634][8748].
6:6 And whereas they commanded[0560][8754] to leave[07662][8749] the stump[06136] of the tree[0363] roots[08330]; thy kingdom[04437] shall be sure[07011] unto thee, after[04481] that thou shalt have known[03046][8748] that the heavens[08065] do rule[07990].
6:7 Wherefore[03861], O king[04430], let my counsel[04431] be acceptable[08232][8748] unto thee[05922], and break off[06562][8747] thy sins[02408] by righteousness[06665], and thine iniquities[05758] by shewing mercy[02604][8749] to the poor[06033][8750]; if[02006] it may be[01934][8748] a lengthening[0754] of thy tranquillity[07963]. a lengthening...: or, an healing of thine error
6:8 All[03606] this came[04291][8754] upon[05922] the king[04430] Nebuchadnezzar[05020].
6:9 At the end[07118] of twelve[08648][06236] months[03393] he walked[01934][8754][01981][8750] in[05922] the palace[01965] of the kingdom[04437] of Babylon[0895]. in: or, upon
6:10 The king[04430] spake[06032][8750], and said[0560][8750], Is not[03809] this[01932][01668] great[07229] Babylon[0895], that I[0576] have built[01124][8754] for the house[01005] of the kingdom[04437] by the might[08632] of my power[02632], and for the honour[03367] of my majesty[01923]?
6:11 While[05751] the word[04406] was in the king's[04430] mouth[06433], there fell[05308][8754] a voice[07032] from[04481] heaven[08065], saying , O king[04430] Nebuchadnezzar[05020], to thee it is spoken[0560][8750]; The kingdom[04437] is departed[05709][8754] from[04481] thee.
6:12 And they shall drive[02957][8751] thee from[04481] men[0606], and thy dwelling[04070] shall be with[05974] the beasts[02423] of the field[01251]: they shall make thee to eat[02939][8748] grass[06211] as oxen[08450], and seven[07655] times[05732] shall pass[02499] over[05922] thee, until[05705] thou know[03046][8748] that the most High[05943] ruleth[07990] in the kingdom[04437] of men[0606], and giveth[05415][8748] it to whomsoever[04479] he will[06634][8748].
6:13 The same hour[08160] was the thing[04406] fulfilled[05487][8754] upon[05922] Nebuchadnezzar[05020]: and he was driven[02957][8752] from[04481] men[0606], and did eat[0399][8748] grass[06211] as oxen[08450], and his body[01655] was wet[06647][8721] with the dew[02920] of heaven[08065], till[05705] his hairs[08177] were grown[07236][8754] like eagles[05403]' feathers , and his nails[02953] like birds[06853]' claws .
6:14 And at the end[07118] of the days[03118] I[0576] Nebuchadnezzar[05020] lifted up[05191][8754] mine eyes[05870] unto heaven[08065], and mine understanding[04486] returned[08421][8748] unto me[05922], and I blessed[01289][8745] the most High[05943], and I praised[07624][8745] and honoured[01922][8745] him that liveth[02417] for ever[05957], whose dominion[07985] is an everlasting[05957] dominion[07985], and his kingdom[04437] is from[05974] generation[01859] to generation[01859]:
6:15 And all[03606] the inhabitants[01753][8748] of the earth[0772] are reputed[02804][8752] as nothing[03809]: and he doeth[05648][8751] according to his will[06634][8749] in the army[02429] of heaven[08065], and  among the inhabitants[01753][8748] of the earth[0772]: and none[03809] can[0383] stay[04223][8741] his hand[03028], or say[0560][8748] unto him, What[04101] doest[05648][8754] thou?
6:16 At the same time[02166] my reason[04486] returned[08421][8748] unto me[05922]; and for the glory[03367] of my kingdom[04437], mine honour[01923] and brightness[02122] returned[08421][8748] unto me[05922]; and my counsellors[01907] and my lords[07261] sought[01156][8748] unto me[05922]; and I was established[08627][8717] in my kingdom[04437], and excellent[03493] majesty[07238] was added[03255][8717] unto me.
6:17 Now[03705] I[0576] Nebuchadnezzar[05020] praise[07624][8743] and extol[07313][8751] and honour[01922][8743] the King[04430] of heaven[08065], all[03606] whose works[04567] are truth[07187], and his ways[0735] judgment[01780]: and those that walk[01981][8683] in pride[01467] he is able[03202][8750] to abase[08214][8682].
6:18 Belshazzar[01113] the king[04430] made[05648][8754] a great[07229] feast[03900] to a thousand[0506] of his lords[07261], and drank[08355][8750] wine[02562] before[06903] the thousand[0506].
6:19 Belshazzar[01113], whiles he tasted[02942] the wine[02562], commanded[0560][8754] to bring[0858][8682] the golden[01722] and silver[03702] vessels[03984] which his father[02] Nebuchadnezzar[05020] had taken[05312][8684] out of[04481] the temple[01965] which was in Jerusalem[03390]; that the king[04430], and his princes[07261], his wives[07695], and his concubines[03904], might drink[08355][8748] therein. father: or, grandfather taken: Chaldee, brought forth
6:20 Then[0116] they brought[0858][8684] the golden[01722] vessels[03984] that were taken[05312][8684] out of[04481] the temple[01965] of the house[01005] of God[0426] which was  at Jerusalem[03390]; and the king[04430], and his princes[07261], his wives[07695], and his concubines[03904], drank[08355][8754] in them.
6:21 They drank[08355][8754] wine[02562], and praised[07624][8745] the gods[0426] of gold[01722], and of silver[03702], of brass[05174], of iron[06523], of wood[0636], and of stone[069].
6:22 In the same hour[08160] came forth[05312][8754] fingers[0677] of a man's[0606] hand[03028], and wrote[03790][8751] over against[06903] the candlestick[05043] upon[05922] the plaister[01528] of the wall[03797] of the king's[04430] palace[01965]: and the king[04430] saw[02370][8751] the part[06447] of the hand[03028] that wrote[03790][8751].
6:23 Then[0116] the king's[04430] countenance[02122] was changed[08133][8754], and his thoughts[07476] troubled[0927][8792] him, so that the joints[07001] of his loins[02783] were loosed[08271][8723], and his knees[0755] smote[05368][8750] one[01668] against another[01668]. countenance: Chaldee, brightnesses was changed: Chaldee, changed it joints: or, girdles: Chaldee, bindings, or, knots
6:24 The king[04430] cried[07123][8748] aloud[02429] to bring[05954][8682] in the astrologers[0826], the Chaldeans[03779], and the soothsayers[01505][8750]. And the king[04430] spake[06032][8750], and said[0560][8750] to the wise[02445] men of Babylon[0895], Whosoever[0606][03606] shall read[07123][8751] this[01836] writing[03792], and shew[02324][8741] me the interpretation[06591] thereof, shall be clothed[03848][8748] with scarlet[0711], and have a chain[02002] of gold[01722] about[05922] his neck[06676], and shall be the third[08523] ruler[07981][8748] in the kingdom[04437]. aloud: Chaldee, with might scarlet: or, purple
6:25 Then[0116] came[05954][8750] in all[03606] the king's[04430] wise[02445] men : but they could[03546][8751] not[03809] read[07123][8749] the writing[03792], nor make known[03046][8682] to the king[04430] the interpretation[06591] thereof.
6:26 Then[0116] was king[04430] Belshazzar[01113] greatly[07690] troubled[0927][8727], and his countenance[02122] was changed[08133][8750] in him[05922], and his lords[07261] were astonied[07672][8723]. countenance: Chaldee, brightnesses
6:27 Now the queen[04433], by reason[06903] of the words[04406] of the king[04430] and his lords[07261], came[05954][8754] into the banquet[04961] house[01005]: and the queen[04433] spake[06032][8754] and said[0560][8754], O king[04430], live[02418][8747] for ever[05957]: let not[0409] thy thoughts[07476] trouble[0927][8792] thee, nor let thy countenance[02122] be changed[08133][8721]:
6:28 There is[0383] a man[01400] in thy kingdom[04437], in whom is the spirit[07308] of the holy[06922] gods[0426]; and in the days[03118] of thy father[02] light[05094] and understanding[07924] and wisdom[02452], like the wisdom[02452] of the gods[0426], was found[07912][8728] in him; whom the king[04430] Nebuchadnezzar[05020] thy father[02], the king[04430], I say , thy father[02], made[06966][8684] master[07229] of the magicians[02749], astrologers[0826], Chaldeans[03779], and soothsayers[01505][8750]; father: or, grandfather
7:1 Forasmuch as[06903][03606] an excellent[03493] spirit[07308], and knowledge[04486], and understanding[07924], interpreting[06590][8743] of dreams[02493], and shewing[0263] of hard sentences[0280], and dissolving[08271][8743] of doubts[07001], were found[07912][8728] in the same Daniel[01841], whom the king[04430] named[07761][8754][08036] Belteshazzar[01096]: now[03705] let Daniel[01841] be called[07123][8729], and he will shew[02324][8681] the interpretation[06591]. interpreting: or, of an interpreter dissolving: or, of a dissolver doubts: Chaldee, knots
7:2 Then[0116] was Daniel[01841] brought in[05954][8717] before[06925] the king[04430]. And the king[04430] spake[06032][8750] and said[0560][8750] unto Daniel[01841], Art  thou[0607] that Daniel[01841], which art of[04481] the children[01123] of the captivity[01547] of Judah[03061], whom the king[04430] my father[02] brought[0858][8684] out of[04481] Jewry[03061]? father: or, grandfather
7:3 I have even heard[08086][8754] of thee, that the spirit[07308] of the gods[0426] is in thee[05922], and that light[05094] and understanding[07924] and excellent[03493] wisdom[02452] is found[07912][8728] in thee.
7:4 And now[03705] the wise[02445] men , the astrologers[0826], have been brought[05954][8717] in before[06925] me, that they should read[07123][8748] this[01836] writing[03792], and make known[03046][8682] unto me the interpretation[06591] thereof: but they could[03546][8751] not[03809] shew[02324][8682] the interpretation[06591] of the thing[04406]:
7:5 And I[0576] have heard[08086][8754] of thee[05922], that thou canst[03202][8748] make[06590][8749] interpretations[06591], and dissolve[08271][8749] doubts[07001]: now[03705] if[02006] thou canst[03202][8748] read[07123][8749] the writing[03792], and make known[03046][8682] to me the interpretation[06591] thereof, thou shalt be clothed[03848][8748] with scarlet[0711], and have a chain[02002] of gold[01722] about[05922] thy neck[06676], and shalt be the third[08531] ruler[07981][8748] in the kingdom[04437]. make interpretations: Chaldee, interpret, etc
7:6 Then[0116] Daniel[01841] answered[06032][8750] and said[0560][8750] before[06925] the king[04430], Let thy gifts[04978] be[01934][8748] to thyself, and give[03052][8747] thy rewards[05023] to another[0321]; yet[01297] I will read[07123][8748] the writing[03792] unto the king[04430], and make known[03046][8681] to him the interpretation[06591]. rewards: or, fee
7:7 O thou[0607] king[04430], the most high[05943] God[0426] gave[03052][8754] Nebuchadnezzar[05020] thy father[02] a kingdom[04437], and majesty[07238], and glory[03367], and honour[01923]:
7:8 And for[04481] the majesty[07238] that he gave[03052][8754] him, all[03606] people[05972], nations[0524], and languages[03961], trembled[01934][8754][02112] and feared[01763][8751] before[04481] him[06925]: whom he would[01934][8754][06634][8750] he slew[01934][8754][06992][8751]; and whom he would[01934][8754][06634][8750] he kept alive[01934][8754][02418][8683]; and whom he would[01934][8754][06634][8750] he set up[01934][8754][07313][8683]; and whom he would[01934][8754][06634][8750] he put down[01934][8754][08214][8683].
7:9 But when his heart[03825] was lifted up[07313][8752], and his mind[07308] hardened[08631][8748] in pride[02103][8682], he was deposed[05182][8717] from[04481] his kingly[04437] throne[03764], and they took[05709][8684] his glory[03367] from him[04481]: in pride: or, to deal proudly deposed: Chaldee, made to come down
7:10 And he was driven[02957][8752] from[04481] the sons[01123] of men[0606]; and his heart[03825] was made[07739][8745] like[05974] the beasts[02423], and his dwelling[04070] was  with the wild asses[06167]: they fed[02939][8748] him with grass[06211] like oxen[08450], and his body[01655] was wet[06647][8721] with the dew[02920] of heaven[08065]; till[05705] he knew[03046][8754] that the most high[05943] God[0426] ruled[07990] in the kingdom[04437] of men[0606], and that he appointeth[06966][8681] over[05922] it whomsoever[04479] he will[06634][8748]. his heart...: or, he made his heart equal, etc
7:11 And thou[0607] his son[01247], O Belshazzar[01113], hast not[03809] humbled[08214][8684] thine heart[03825], though[06903] thou knewest[03046][8754] all[03606] this[01836];
7:12 But hast lifted up[07313][8712] thyself against[05922] the Lord[04756] of heaven[08065]; and they have brought[0858][8684] the vessels[03984] of his house[01005] before[06925] thee, and thou[0607], and thy lords[07261], thy wives[07695], and thy concubines[03904], have drunk[08355][8750] wine[02562] in them; and thou hast praised[07624][8745] the gods[0426] of silver[03702], and gold[01722], of brass[05174], iron[06523], wood[0636], and stone[069], which see[02370][8751] not[03809], nor[03809] hear[08086][8750], nor[03809] know[03046][8751]: and the God[0426] in whose hand[03028] thy breath[05396] is , and whose are all[03606] thy ways[0735], hast thou not[03809] glorified[01922][8745]:
7:13 Then[0116] was the part[06447] of the hand[03028] sent[07972][8750] from[04481] him[06925]; and this[01836] writing[03792] was written[07560][8752].
7:14 And this[01836] is the writing[03792] that was written[07560][8752], MENE[04484][8752], MENE[04484][8752], TEKEL[08625][8752], UPHARSIN[06537][8751].
7:15 This[01836] is the interpretation[06591] of the thing[04406]: MENE[04484][8752]; God[0426] hath numbered[04483][8754] thy kingdom[04437], and finished[08000][8684] it.
7:16 TEKEL[08625][8752]; Thou art weighed[08625][8760] in the balances[03977], and art found[07912][8728] wanting[02627].
7:17 PERES[06537][8752]; Thy kingdom[04437] is divided[06537][8752], and given[03052][8753] to the Medes[04076] and Persians[06540].
7:18 Then[0116] commanded[0560][8754] Belshazzar[01113], and they clothed[03848][8684] Daniel[01841] with scarlet[0711], and put a chain[02002] of gold[01722] about[05922] his neck[06676], and made a proclamation[03745][8684] concerning[05922] him, that he should be[01934][8748] the third[08531] ruler[07990] in the kingdom[04437].
7:19 In that night[03916] was Belshazzar[01113] the king[04430] of the Chaldeans[03779] slain[06992][8752].
7:20 And Darius[01868] the Median[04077] took[06902][8745] the kingdom[04437], being about threescore[08361] and two[08648] years[08140] old[01247]. being...: Chaldee, he as the son of, etc about: or, now
7:21 It pleased[06925][08232][8754] Darius[01868] to set[06966][8684] over[05922] the kingdom[04437] an hundred[03969] and twenty[06243] princes[0324], which should be[01934][8748] over the whole[03606] kingdom[04437];
7:22 And over[05924] these[04481] three[08532] presidents[05632]; of whom[04481] Daniel[01841] was first[02298]: that[0459] the princes[0324] might[01934][8748] give[03052][8751] accounts[02941] unto them, and the king[04430] should have[01934][8748] no[03809] damage[05142][8752].
7:23 Then[0116] this[01836] Daniel[01841] was[01934][8754] preferred[05330][8723] above[05922] the presidents[05632] and princes[0324], because[03606][06903] an excellent[03493] spirit[07308] was in him; and the king[04430] thought[06246][8754] to set[06966][8682] him over[05922] the whole[03606] realm[04437].
7:24 Then[0116] the presidents[05632] and princes[0324] sought[01934][8754][01156][8750] to find[07912][8682] occasion[05931] against Daniel[01841] concerning[06655] the kingdom[04437]; but[03606] they could[03202][8750] find[07912][8682] none[03809] occasion[05931] nor[03809] fault[07844][8752]; forasmuch[06903] as he was faithful[0540][8683], neither[03809] was there any[03606] error[07960] or fault[07844][8752] found[07912][8728] in him[05922].
7:25 Then[0116] said[0560][8750] these[0479] men[01400], We shall not[03809] find[07912][8684] any[03606] occasion[05931] against[05922] this[01836] Daniel[01841], except[03861] we find[07912][8681] it against him concerning the law[01882] of his God[0426].
7:26 Then[0116] these[0459] presidents[05632] and princes[0324] assembled together[07284][8684] to the king[04430], and said[0560][8750] thus[03652] unto him[05922], King[04430] Darius[01868], live[02418][8747] for ever[05957]. assembled...: or, came tumultuously
7:27 All[03606] the presidents[05632] of the kingdom[04437], the governors[05460], and the princes[0324], the counsellors[01907], and the captains[06347], have consulted together[03272][8724] to establish[06966][8742] a royal[04430] statute[07010], and to make a firm[08631][8742] decree[0633], that whosoever shall ask[01156][8748] a petition[01159] of[04481] any[03606] God[0426] or man[0606] for[05705] thirty[08533] days[03118], save[03861] of thee[04481], O king[04430], he shall be cast[07412][8729] into the den[01358] of lions[0744]. decree: or, interdict
7:28 Now[03705], O king[04430], establish[06966][8681] the decree[0633], and sign[07560][8748] the writing[03792], that it be not[03809] changed[08133][8682], according to the law[01882] of the Medes[04076] and Persians[06540], which altereth[05709][8748] not[03809]. altereth not: Chaldee, passeth not
8:1 Wherefore[03606][01836][06903] king[04430] Darius[01868] signed[07560][8754] the writing[03792] and the decree[0633].
8:2 Now when Daniel[01841] knew[03046][8754] that the writing[03792] was signed[07560][8752], he went[05954][8754] into his house[01005]; and his windows[03551] being open[06606][8759] in his chamber[05952] toward[05049] Jerusalem[03390], he kneeled[01289][8750] upon[05922] his knees[01291] three[08532] times[02166] a day[03118], and prayed[06739][8743], and gave thanks[03029][8683] before[06925] his God[0426], as[06903][03606] he did[01934][8754][05648][8751] aforetime[04481][01836][06928].
8:3 Then[0116] these[0479] men[01400] assembled[07284][8684], and found[07912][8684] Daniel[01841] praying[01156][8750] and making supplication[02604][8723] before[06925] his God[0426].
8:4 Then[0116] they came near[07127][8754], and spake[0560][8750] before[06925] the king[04430] concerning[05922] the king's[04430] decree[0633]; Hast thou not[03809] signed[07560][8754] a decree[0633], that every[03606] man[0606] that shall ask[01156][8748] a petition of[04481] any[03606] God[0426] or man[0606] within[05705] thirty[08533] days[03118], save[03861] of thee[04481], O king[04430], shall be cast[07412][8729] into the den[01358] of lions[0744]? The king[04430] answered[06032][8750] and said[0560][8750], The thing[04406] is  true[03330], according to the law[01882] of the Medes[04076] and Persians[06540], which altereth[05709][8748] not[03809].
8:5 Then[0116] answered[06032][8754] they and said[0560][8750] before[06925] the king[04430], That Daniel[01841], which is of[04481] the children[01123] of the captivity[01547] of Judah[03061], regardeth[07761][8754][02942] not[03809] thee[05922], O king[04430], nor the decree[0633] that thou hast signed[07560][8754], but maketh[01156][8750] his petition[01159] three[08532] times[02166] a day[03118].
8:6 Then[0116] the king[04430], when he heard[08086][8754] these words[04406], was sore[07690] displeased[0888][8754] with himself, and set[07761][8754] his heart[01079] on[05922] Daniel[01841] to deliver[07804][8756] him: and he laboured[01934][8754][07712][8723] till[05705] the going down[04606] of the sun[08122] to deliver[05338][8682] him.
8:7 Then[0116] these[0479] men[01400] assembled[07284][8684] unto[05922] the king[04430], and said[0560][8750] unto the king[04430], Know[03046][8747], O king[04430], that the law[01882] of the Medes[04076] and Persians[06540] is , That no[03606] decree[0633] nor statute[07010] which the king[04430] establisheth[06966][8681] may be changed[08133][8682].
8:8 Then[0116] the king[04430] commanded[0560][8754], and they brought[0858][8684] Daniel[01841], and cast[07412][8754] him into the den[01358] of lions[0744]. Now the king[04430] spake[06032][8750] and said[0560][8750] unto Daniel[01841], Thy God[0426] whom thou[0607] servest[06399][8750] continually[08411], he will deliver[07804][8755] thee.
8:9 And a[02298] stone[069] was brought[0858][8717], and laid[07761][8752] upon[05922] the mouth[06433] of the den[01358]; and the king[04430] sealed[02857][8754] it with his own signet[05824], and with the signet[05824] of his lords[07261]; that the purpose[06640] might not[03809] be changed[08133][8748] concerning Daniel[01841].
8:10 Then[0116] the king[04430] went[0236][8754] to his palace[01965], and passed the night[0956][8754] fasting[02908]: neither[03809] were instruments[01761] of musick brought[05954][8684] before[06925] him: and his sleep[08139] went[05075][8754] from him[05922]. instruments...: or, table
8:11 Then[0116] the king[04430] arose[06966][8748] very early[08238] in the morning[05053], and went[0236][8754] in haste[0927][8726] unto the den[01358] of lions[0744].
8:12 And when he came[07127][8749] to the den[01358], he cried[02200][8754] with a lamentable[06088][8750] voice[07032] unto Daniel[01841]: and the king[04430] spake[06032][8750] and said[0560][8750] to Daniel[01841], O Daniel[01841], servant[05649] of the living[02417] God[0426], is thy God[0426], whom thou servest[06399][8750] continually[08411], able[03202][8754] to deliver[07804][8756] thee from[04481] the lions[0744]?
8:13 Then[0116] said[04449][8745] Daniel[01841] unto[05974] the king[04430], O king[04430], live[02418][8747] for ever[05957].
8:14 My God[0426] hath sent[07972][8754] his angel[04398], and hath shut[05463][8754] the lions[0744]' mouths[06433], that they have not[03809] hurt[02255][8745] me: forasmuch as[03606][06903] before[06925] him innocency[02136] was found[07912][8728] in me; and also[0638] before[06925] thee, O king[04430], have I done[05648][8754] no[03809] hurt[02248].
8:15 Then[0116] was the king[04430] exceeding[07690] glad[02868][8754] for him[05922], and commanded[0560][8754] that they should take[05267][00] Daniel[01841] up[05267][8682] out of[04481] the den[01358]. So Daniel[01841] was taken up[05267][8717] out of[04481] the den[01358], and no[03809] manner[03606] of hurt[02257] was found[07912][8728] upon him, because he believed[0540][8684] in his God[0426].
8:16 And the king[04430] commanded[0560][8754], and they brought[0858][8684] those[0479] men[01400] which had accused[0399][8754][07170] Daniel[01841], and they cast[07412][8754] them into the den[01358] of lions[0744], them[0581], their children[01123], and their wives[05389]; and the lions[0744] had the mastery[05705][07981][8754] of them, and brake[01855][00] all[03606] their bones[01635] in pieces[01855][8684] or ever[03809] they came[04291][8754] at the bottom[0773] of the den[01358].
8:17 Then[0116] king[04430] Darius[01868] wrote[03790][8754] unto all[03606] people[05972], nations[0524], and languages[03961], that dwell[01753][8748] in all[03606] the earth[0772]; Peace[08001] be multiplied[07680][8748] unto you.
8:18 I[04481][06925] make[07761][8752] a decree[02942], That in every[03606] dominion[07985] of my kingdom[04437] men tremble[01934][8748][02112] and fear[01763][8751] before[04481][06925] the God[0426] of Daniel[01841]: for he is the living[02417] God[0426], and stedfast[07011] for ever[05957], and his kingdom[04437] that which shall not[03809] be destroyed[02255][8721], and his dominion[07985] shall be even unto[05705] the end[05491].
8:19 He delivereth[07804][8757] and rescueth[05338][8683], and he worketh[05648][8751] signs[0852] and wonders[08540] in heaven[08065] and in earth[0772], who hath delivered[07804][8758] Daniel[01841] from[04481] the power[03028] of the lions[0744]. power: Chaldee, hand
8:20 So this[01836] Daniel[01841] prospered[06744][8684] in the reign[04437] of Darius[01868], and in the reign[04437] of Cyrus[03567] the Persian[06543].
8:21 In the first[02298] year[08140] of Belshazzar[01113] king[04430] of Babylon[0895] Daniel[01841] had[02370][8754] a dream[02493] and visions[02376] of his head[07217] upon[05922] his bed[04903]: then[0116] he wrote[03790][8754] the dream[02493], and told[0560][8754] the sum[07217] of the matters[04406]. had: Chaldee, saw matters: or, words
8:22 Daniel[01841] spake[06032][8750] and said[0560][8750], I saw[02370][8751][01934][8754] in my vision[02376] by[05974] night[03916], and, behold[0718], the four[0703] winds[07308] of the heaven[08065] strove[01519][8683] upon the great[07229] sea[03221].
8:23 And four[0703] great[07260] beasts[02423] came up[05559][8751] from[04481] the sea[03221], diverse[08133][8750] one[01668] from[04481] another[01668].
8:24 The first[06933] was like a lion[0744], and had eagle's[05403] wings[01611]: I beheld[01934][8754][02370][8751] till[05705] the wings[01611] thereof were plucked[04804][8760], and it was lifted up[05191][8760] from[04481] the earth[0772], and made stand[06966][8717] upon[05922] the feet[07271] as a man[0606], and a man's[0606] heart[03825] was given[03052][8753] to it. and it: or, wherewith it
8:25 And behold[0718] another[0317] beast[02423], a second[08578], like[01821][8751] to a bear[01678], and it raised up[06966][8684] itself on one[02298] side[07859], and it had  three[08532] ribs[05967] in the mouth[06433] of it between[0997] the teeth[08128] of it: and they said[0560][8750] thus[03652] unto it, Arise[06966][8747], devour[0399][8747] much[07690] flesh[01321]. it raised...: or, it raised up one dominion
8:26 After[0870] this[01836] I beheld[01934][8754][02370][8751], and lo[0718] another[0317], like a leopard[05245], which had upon[05922] the back[01355] of it four[0703] wings[01611] of a fowl[05776]; the beast[02423] had also four[0703] heads[07217]; and dominion[07985] was given[03052][8753] to it.
8:27 After[0870] this[01836] I saw[01934][8754][02370][8751] in the night[03916] visions[02376], and behold[0718] a fourth[07244] beast[02423], dreadful[01763][8753] and terrible[0574], and strong[08624] exceedingly[03493]; and it had great[07260] iron[06523] teeth[08128]: it devoured[0399][8750] and brake in pieces[01855][8683], and stamped[07512][8751] the residue[07606] with the feet[07271] of it: and it[01932] was diverse[08133][8743] from[04481] all[03606] the beasts[02423] that were before[06925] it; and it had ten[06236] horns[07162].
9:1 I considered[01934][8754][07920][8723] the horns[07162], and, behold[0431], there came up[05559][8754] among[0997] them another[0317] little[02192] horn[07162], before[06925][04481] whom there were three[08532] of[04481] the first[06933] horns[07162] plucked up by the roots[06132][8725]: and, behold[0431], in this[01668] horn[07162] were eyes[05870] like the eyes[05870] of man[0606], and a mouth[06433] speaking[04449][8743] great things[07260].
9:2 I beheld[01934][8754][02370][8751] till[05705] the thrones[03764] were cast down[07412][8752], and the Ancient[06268] of days[03118] did sit[03488][8754], whose garment[03831] was white[02358] as snow[08517], and the hair[08177] of his head[07217] like the pure[05343] wool[06015]: his throne[03764] was like the fiery[05135] flame[07631], and  his wheels[01535] as burning[01815][8751] fire[05135].
9:3 A fiery[05135] stream[05103] issued[05047][8743] and came forth[05312][8750] from[04481] before[06925] him: thousand[0506] thousands[0506] ministered[08120][8741] unto him, and ten thousand[07240] times ten thousand[07240] stood[06966][8748] before[06925] him: the judgment[01780] was set[03488][8754], and the books[05609] were opened[06606][8760].
9:4 I beheld[01934][8754][02370][8751] then[0116] because[04481] of the voice[07032] of the great[07260] words[04406] which the horn[07162] spake[04449][8743]: I beheld[01934][8754][02370][8751] even till[05705] the beast[02423] was slain[06992][8752], and his body[01655] destroyed[07][8717], and given[03052][8753] to the burning[03346] flame[0785].
9:5 As concerning the rest[07606] of the beasts[02423], they had their dominion[07985] taken away[05709][8684]: yet their lives[02417] were prolonged[03052][8753] for[05705] a season[02166] and time[05732]. their lives...: Chaldee, a prolonging in life was given them
9:6 I saw[01934][8754][02370][8751] in the night[03916] visions[02376], and, behold[0718], one like the Son[01247] of man[0606] came[0858][8750] with[05974] the clouds[06050] of heaven[08065], and came[04291][8754] to[05705] the Ancient[06268] of days[03118], and they brought him near[07127][8684] before[06925] him.
9:7 And there was given[03052][8753] him dominion[07985], and glory[03367], and a kingdom[04437], that all[03606] people[05972], nations[0524], and languages[03961], should serve[06399][8748] him: his dominion[07985] is  an everlasting[05957] dominion[07985], which shall not[03809] pass away[05709][8748], and his kingdom[04437] that which shall not[03809] be destroyed[02255][8721].
9:8 I[0576] Daniel[01841] was grieved[03735][8730] in my spirit[07308] in the midst[01459] of my body[05085], and the visions[02376] of my head[07217] troubled[0927][8792] me. body: Chaldee, sheath
9:9 I came near[07127][8754] unto[05922] one[02298] of[04481] them that stood by[06966][8750], and asked[01156][8748] him[04481] the truth[03330] of all[03606] this[01836]. So he told[0560][8754] me, and made me know[03046][8681] the interpretation[06591] of the things[04406].
9:10 These[0459] great[07260] beasts[02423], which[0581] are four[0703], are four[0703] kings[04430], which shall arise[06966][8748] out of[04481] the earth[0772].
9:11 But the saints[06922] of the most High[05946] shall take[06902][8741] the kingdom[04437], and possess[02631][8681] the kingdom[04437] for[05705] ever[05957], even for[05705] ever[05957] and ever[05957]. most...: Chaldee, high ones, that is, things, or, places
9:12 Then[0116] I would[06634][8754] know the truth[03321][8742] of[05922] the fourth[07244] beast[02423], which was[01934][8754] diverse[08133][8750] from[04481] all[03606] the others, exceeding[03493] dreadful[01763][8753], whose teeth[08128] were of iron[06523], and his nails[02953] of brass[05174]; which devoured[0399][8750], brake in pieces[01855][8683], and stamped[07512][8751] the residue[07606] with his feet[07271]; from...: Chaldee, from all those
9:13 And of[05922] the ten[06236] horns[07162] that were in his head[07217], and of the other[0317] which came up[05559][8754], and before[04481][06925] whom three[08532] fell[05308][8754]; even of that horn[07162] that[01797] had eyes[05870], and a mouth[06433] that spake[04449][8743] very great things[07260], whose look[02376] was more[04481][00] stout[07229] than[04481] his fellows[02273].
9:14 I beheld[01934][8754][02370][8751], and the same[01797] horn[07162] made[05648][8751] war[07129] with[05974] the saints[06922], and prevailed[03202][8750] against them;
9:15 Until[05705] the Ancient[06268] of days[03118] came[0858][8754][01768], and judgment[01780] was given[03052][8753] to the saints[06922] of the most High[05946]; and the time[02166] came[04291][8754] that the saints[06922] possessed[02631][8684] the kingdom[04437].
9:16 Thus[03652] he said[0560][8754], The fourth[07244] beast[02423] shall be[01934][8748] the fourth[07244] kingdom[04437] upon earth[0772], which shall be diverse[08133][8748] from[04481] all[03606] kingdoms[04437], and shall devour[0399][8748] the whole[03606] earth[0772], and shall tread it down[01759][8748], and break it in pieces[01855][8681].
9:17 And the ten[06236] horns[07162] out of[04481] this kingdom[04437] are ten[06236] kings[04430] that shall arise[06966][8748]: and another[0321] shall rise[06966][8748] after[0311] them; and he shall be diverse[08133][8748] from[04481] the first[06933], and he shall subdue[08214][8681] three[08532] kings[04430].
9:18 And he shall speak[04449][8741] great words[04406] against[06655] the most High[05943], and shall wear out[01080][8741] the saints[06922] of the most High[05946], and think[05452][8748] to change[08133][8682] times[02166] and laws[01882]: and they shall be given[03052][8725] into his hand[03028] until[05705] a time[05732] and times[05732] and the dividing[06387] of time[05732].
9:19 But the judgment[01780] shall sit[03488][8754], and they shall take away[05709][8681] his dominion[07985], to consume[08046][8682] and to destroy[07][8682] it unto[05705] the end[05491].
9:20 And the kingdom[04437] and dominion[07985], and the greatness[07238] of the kingdom[04437] under[08460] the whole[03606] heaven[08065], shall be given[03052][8753] to the people[05972] of the saints[06922] of the most High[05946], whose kingdom[04437] is an everlasting[05957] kingdom[04437], and all[03606] dominions[07985] shall serve[06399][8748] and obey[08086][8721] him. dominions: or, rulers
9:21 Hitherto[05705][03542] is the end[05491] of the matter[04406]. As for me[0576] Daniel[01841], my cogitations[07476] much[07690] troubled[0927][8792] me, and my countenance[02122] changed[08133][8721] in me[05922]: but I kept[05202][8754] the matter[04406] in my heart[03821].
9:22 In the third[07969] year[08141] of the reign[04438] of king[04428] Belshazzar[01112] a vision[02377] appeared[07200][8738] unto me, even unto me Daniel[01840], after[0310] that which appeared[07200][8738] unto me at the first[08462].
9:23 And I saw[07200][8799] in a vision[02377]; and it came to pass, when I saw[07200][8800], that I was at Shushan[07800] in the palace[01002], which is in the province[04082] of Elam[05867]; and I saw[07200][8799] in a vision[02377], and I was by the river[0180] of Ulai[0195].
9:24 Then I lifted up[05375][8799] mine eyes[05869], and saw[07200][8799], and, behold, there stood[05975][8802] before[06440] the river[0180] a[0259] ram[0352] which had two horns[07161]: and the two horns[07161] were high[01364]; but one[0259] was higher[01364] than the other[08145], and the higher[01364] came up[05927][8802] last[0314]. the other: Heb. the second
9:25 I saw[07200][8804] the ram[0352] pushing[05055][8764] westward[03220], and northward[06828], and southward[05045]; so that no beasts[02416] might stand[05975][8799] before[06440] him, neither was there any that could deliver[05337][8688] out of his hand[03027]; but he did[06213][8804] according to his will[07522], and became great[01431][8689].
9:26 And as I was considering[0995][8688], behold, an he[05795] goat[06842] came[0935][8802] from the west[04628] on the face[06440] of the whole earth[0776], and touched[05060][8802] not the ground[0776]: and the goat[06842] had a notable[02380] horn[07161] between his eyes[05869]. touched...: or, none touched him in the earth a notable...: Heb. a horn of sight
9:27 And he came[0935][8799] to the ram[0352] that had[01167] two horns[07161], which I had seen[07200][8804] standing[05975][8802] before[06440] the river[0180], and ran[07323][8799] unto him in the fury[02534] of his power[03581].
10:1 And I saw[07200][8804] him come[05060][8688] close unto[0681] the ram[0352], and he was moved with choler[04843][8698] against him, and smote[05221][8686] the ram[0352], and brake[07665][8762] his two[08147] horns[07161]: and there was no power[03581] in the ram[0352] to stand[05975][8800] before[06440] him, but he cast him down[07993][8686] to the ground[0776], and stamped[07429][8799] upon him: and there was none that could deliver[05337][8688] the ram[0352] out of his hand[03027].
10:2 Therefore the he[06842] goat[05795] waxed very[03966] great[01431][8689]: and when he was strong[06105][8800], the great[01419] horn[07161] was broken[07665][8738]; and for it came up[05927][8799] four[0702] notable ones[02380] toward the four[0702] winds[07307] of heaven[08064].
10:3 And out of one[0259] of them came forth[03318][8804] a little[04704] horn[07161], which waxed exceeding[03499] great[01431][8799], toward the south[05045], and toward the east[04217], and toward the pleasant[06643] land .
10:4 And it waxed great[01431][8799], even to the host[06635] of heaven[08064]; and it cast down[05307][8686] some of the host[06635] and of the stars[03556] to the ground[0776], and stamped[07429][8799] upon them. to the host: or, against the host
10:5 Yea, he magnified[01431][8689] himself even to the prince[08269] of the host[06635], and by him the daily[08548] sacrifice was taken away[07311][8717][8675][07311][8689], and the place[04349] of his sanctuary[04720] was cast down[07993][8717]. to: or, against by him: or, from him

10:10 And I heard[08085][8799] a man's[0120] voice[06963] between the banks of Ulai[0195], which called[07121][8799], and said[0559][8799], Gabriel[01403], make this[01975] man to understand[0995][8685] the vision[04758].
10:11 So he came[0935][8799] near[0681] where I stood[05977]: and when he came[0935][8800], I was afraid[01204][8738], and fell[05307][8799] upon my face[06440]: but he said[0559][8799] unto me, Understand[0995][8685], O son[01121] of man[0120]: for at the time[06256] of the end[07093] shall be the vision[02377].
10:12 Now as he was speaking[01696][8763] with me, I was in a deep sleep[07290][8738] on my face[06440] toward the ground[0776]: but he touched[05060][8799] me, and set[05975][8686] me upright[05977]. set...: Heb. made me stand upon my standing

10:17 And in the latter time[0319] of their kingdom[04438], when the transgressors[06586][8802] are come to the full[08552][8687], a king[04428] of fierce[05794] countenance[06440], and understanding[0995][8688] dark sentences[02420], shall stand up[05975][8799]. are...: Heb. are accomplished

10:21 And I Daniel[01840] fainted[01961][8738], and was sick[02470][8738] certain days[03117]; afterward I rose up[06965][8799], and did[06213][8799] the king's[04428] business[04399]; and I was astonished[08074][8709] at the vision[04758], but none understood[0995][8688] it .

11:3 And I set[05414][8799] my face[06440] unto the Lord[0136] God[0430], to seek[01245][8763] by prayer[08605] and supplications[08469], with fasting[06685], and sackcloth[08242], and ashes[0665]:
11:4 And I prayed[06419][8691] unto the LORD[03068] my God[0430], and made my confession[03034][8691], and said[0559][8799], O[0577] Lord[0136], the great[01419] and dreadful[03372][8737] God[0410], keeping[08104][8802] the covenant[01285] and mercy[02617] to them that love[0157][8802] him, and to them that keep[08104][8802] his commandments[04687];
11:5 We have sinned[02398][8804], and have committed iniquity[05753][8804], and have done wickedly[07561][8689], and have rebelled[04775][8804], even by departing[05493][8800] from thy precepts[04687] and from thy judgments[04941]:
11:6 Neither have we hearkened[08085][8804] unto thy servants[05650] the prophets[05030], which spake[01696][8765] in thy name[08034] to our kings[04428], our princes[08269], and our fathers[01], and to all the people[05971] of the land[0776].

11:8 O Lord[0136], to us belongeth confusion[01322] of face[06440], to our kings[04428], to our princes[08269], and to our fathers[01], because we have sinned[02398][8804] against thee.
11:9 To the Lord[0136] our God[0430] belong mercies[07356] and forgivenesses[05547], though we have rebelled[04775][8804] against him;
11:10 Neither have we obeyed[08085][8804] the voice[06963] of the LORD[03068] our God[0430], to walk[03212][8800] in his laws[08451], which he set[05414][8804] before[06440] us by[03027] his servants[05650] the prophets[05030].
11:11 Yea, all Israel[03478] have transgressed[05674][8804] thy law[08451], even by departing[05493][8800], that they might not obey[08085][8800] thy voice[06963]; therefore the curse[0423] is poured[05413][8799] upon us, and the oath[07621] that is written[03789][8803] in the law[08451] of Moses[04872] the servant[05650] of God[0430], because we have sinned[02398][8804] against him.
11:12 And he hath confirmed[06965][8686] his words[01697], which he spake[01696][8765] against us, and against our judges[08199][8802] that judged[08199][8804] us, by bringing[0935][8687] upon us a great[01419] evil[07451]: for under the whole heaven[08064] hath not been done[06213][8738] as hath been done[06213][8738] upon Jerusalem[03389].
11:13 As it is written[03789][8803] in the law[08451] of Moses[04872], all this evil[07451] is come[0935][8804] upon us: yet made we not our prayer[02470][8765] before[06440] the LORD[03068] our God[0430], that we might turn[07725][8800] from our iniquities[05771], and understand[07919][8687] thy truth[0571]. made...: Heb. intreated we not the face of the, etc

11:15 And now, O Lord[0136] our God[0430], that hast brought[03318][00] thy people[05971] forth[03318][8689] out of the land[0776] of Egypt[04714] with a mighty[02389] hand[03027], and hast gotten[06213][8799] thee renown[08034], as at this day[03117]; we have sinned[02398][8804], we have done wickedly[07561][8804]. gotten...: Heb. made thee a name

11:17 Now therefore, O our God[0430], hear[08085][8798] the prayer[08605] of thy servant[05650], and his supplications[08469], and cause thy face[06440] to shine[0215][8685] upon thy sanctuary[04720] that is desolate[08076], for the Lord's[0136] sake.

11:39 Then said[0559][8799] he unto me, Fear[03372][8799] not, Daniel[01840]: for from the first[07223] day[03117] that thou didst set[05414][8804] thine heart[03820] to understand[0995][8687], and to chasten[06031][8692] thyself before[06440] thy God[0430], thy words[01697] were heard[08085][8738], and I am come[0935][8804] for thy words[01697].
11:40 But the prince[08269] of the kingdom[04438] of Persia[06539] withstood[05975][8802] me one[0259] and twenty[06242] days[03117]: but, lo, Michael[04317], one[0259] of the chief[07223] princes[08269], came[0935][8804] to help[05826][8800] me; and I remained[03498][8738] there with[0681] the kings[04428] of Persia[06539]. chief: or, first

11:42 And when he had spoken[01696][8763] such words[01697] unto me, I set[05414][8804] my face[06440] toward the ground[0776], and I became dumb[0481][8738].
11:43 And, behold, one like the similitude[01823] of the sons[01121] of men[0120] touched[05060][8802] my lips[08193]: then I opened[06605][8799] my mouth[06310], and spake[01696][8762], and said[0559][8799] unto him that stood[05975][8802] before me, O my lord[0113], by the vision[04759] my sorrows[06735] are turned[02015][8738] upon me, and I have retained[06113][8804] no strength[03581].
11:44 For how[01963] can[03201][8799] the servant[05650] of this my lord[0113] talk[01696][8763] with this my lord[0113]? for as for me, straightway[06258] there remained[05975][8799] no strength[03581] in me, neither is there breath[05397] left[07604][8738] in me. the...: or, this servant of my lord

12:1 And said[0559][8799], O man[0376] greatly beloved[02532], fear[03372][8799] not: peace[07965] be unto thee, be strong[02388][8798], yea, be strong[02388][8798]. And when he had spoken[01696][8763] unto me, I was strengthened[02388][8694], and said[0559][8799], Let my lord[0113] speak[01696][8762]; for thou hast strengthened[02388][8765] me.
12:2 Then said[0559][8799] he, Knowest[03045][8804] thou wherefore I come[0935][8804] unto thee? and now will I return[07725][8799] to fight[03898][8736] with the prince[08269] of Persia[06539]: and when I am gone forth[03318][8802], lo, the prince[08269] of Grecia[03120] shall come[0935][8804].
12:3 But[061] I will shew[05046][8686] thee that which is noted[07559][8803] in the scripture[03791] of truth[0571]: and there is none[0259] that holdeth[02388][8693] with me in these things, but Michael[04317] your prince[08269]. holdeth: Heb. strengtheneth himself

12:5 And now will I shew[05046][8686] thee the truth[0571]. Behold, there shall stand up[05975][8802] yet three[07969] kings[04428] in Persia[06539]; and the fourth[07243] shall be far[06239] richer[06238][8686] than they  all[01419]: and by his strength[02393] through his riches[06239] he shall stir up[05782][8686] all against the realm[04438] of Grecia[03120].
12:6 And a mighty[01368] king[04428] shall stand up[05975][8804], that shall rule[04910][8804] with great[07227] dominion[04474], and do[06213][8804] according to his will[07522].
