Daniel 4:6Amplified Bible - Classic EditionTherefore I made a decree to bring in all the wise men of Babylon before me, that they might make known to me the interpretation of the dream. See the chapter |
There is a man in your kingdom in whom is the Spirit of the holy God [or gods], and in the days of your father light and understanding and wisdom like the wisdom of the gods were found in him; and King Nebuchadnezzar, your father–the king, I say, your father–appointed him master of the magicians, enchanters or soothsayers, Chaldeans, and astrologers,
The king cried aloud [mightily] to bring in the enchanters or soothsayers, the Chaldeans [diviners], and the astrologers. The king said to the wise men of Babylon, Whoever will read this writing and show me the interpretation of it will be clothed with purple and have a chain of gold put about his neck and will be the third ruler in the kingdom.
