The Chaldeans spoke to the king (Aramaic , begins here): ‘May the king live for ever. Tell your servants the dream, and we will give the interpretation.’
The king replied, ‘I know for certain you are trying to gain some time, because you see that my word is final.
If you don’t tell me the dream, there is one decree for you. You have conspired to tell me something false or fraudulent until the situation changes. So tell me the dream and I will know you can give me its interpretation.’
When the magicians, mediums, Chaldeans, and diviners came in, I told them the dream, but they could not make its interpretation known to me.
