Löydetty 2284 Tulokset: King Demetrius
Then the Chalde'ans said to the king, "O king, live for ever! Tell your servants the dream, and we will show the interpretation." (Daniel 2, 4)
The king answered the Chalde'ans, "The word from me is sure: if you do not make known to me the dream and its interpretation, you shall be torn limb from limb, and your houses shall be laid in ruins. (Daniel 2, 5)
They answered a second time, "Let the king tell his servants the dream, and we will show its interpretation." (Daniel 2, 7)
The king answered, "I know with certainty that you are trying to gain time, because you see that the word from me is sure (Daniel 2, 8)
The Chalde'ans answered the king, "There is not a man on earth who can meet the king's demand; for no great and powerful king has asked such a thing of any magician or enchanter or Chalde'an. (Daniel 2, 10)
The thing that the king asks is difficult, and none can show it to the king except the gods, whose dwelling is not with flesh." (Daniel 2, 11)
Because of this the king was angry and very furious, and commanded that all the wise men of Babylon be destroyed. (Daniel 2, 12)
Then Daniel replied with prudence and discretion to Ar'i-och, the captain of the king's guard, who had gone out to slay the wise men of Babylon; (Daniel 2, 14)
he said to Ar'i-och, the king's captain, "Why is the decree of the king so severe?" Then Ar'i-och made the matter known to Daniel. (Daniel 2, 15)
And Daniel went in and besought the king to appoint him a time, that he might show to the king the interpretation. (Daniel 2, 16)
To thee, O God of my fathers, I give thanks and praise, for thou hast given me wisdom and strength, and hast now made known to me what we asked of thee, for thou hast made known to us the king's matter." (Daniel 2, 23)
Therefore Daniel went in to Ar'i-och, whom the king had appointed to destroy the wise men of Babylon; he went and said thus to him, "Do not destroy the wise men of Babylon; bring me in before the king, and I will show the king the interpretation." (Daniel 2, 24)
