Löydetty 192 Tulokset: Daniel in the lion's den
Daniel then went home and told his friends Hananiah, Mishael and Azariah what had happened, (Daniel 2, 17)
urging them to beg the God of heaven to show his mercy and explain the mysterious secret, so that Daniel and his friends might be spared the fate of the other Babylonian sages. (Daniel 2, 18)
The mystery was then revealed to Daniel in a night-vision, and Daniel blessed the God of heaven. (Daniel 2, 19)
This is what Daniel said: May the name of God be blessed for ever and ever, since wisdom and power are his alone. (Daniel 2, 20)
So Daniel went to see Arioch, whom the king had made responsible for putting the Babylonian sages to death. Going in, he said, 'Do not put the Babylonian sages to death. Take me into the king's presence and I will reveal the meaning to the king.' (Daniel 2, 24)
Arioch lost no time in bringing Daniel to the king. 'Among the exiles from Judah,' he said, 'I have discovered a man who can reveal the meaning to the king.' (Daniel 2, 25)
The king said to Daniel (who had been given the name Belteshazzar), 'Can you tell me what I dreamt and what it means?' (Daniel 2, 26)
Facing the king, Daniel replied, 'None of the sages, soothsayers, magicians or exorcists has been able to tell the king the truth of the mystery which the king has propounded; (Daniel 2, 27)
At this, King Nebuchadnezzar fell prostrate before Daniel; he gave orders for Daniel to be offered an oblation and a fragrant sacrifice. (Daniel 2, 46)
The king said to Daniel, 'Your god is indeed the God of gods, the Master of kings, and the Revealer of Mysteries, since you have been able to reveal this mystery.' (Daniel 2, 47)
The king then conferred high rank on Daniel and gave him many handsome presents. He also made him governor of the whole province of Babylon and head of all the sages of Babylon. (Daniel 2, 48)
At Daniel's request, the king entrusted the affairs of the province of Babylon to Shadrach, Meshach and Abed-Nego; Daniel himself remained in attendance on the king. (Daniel 2, 49)
