Daniel 2:16

New International Version

At this, Daniel went in to the king and asked for time, so that he might interpret the dream for him.

See the chapter Copy

A king’s wrath is a messenger of death, but the wise will appease it.

He asked the king’s officer, “Why did the king issue such a harsh decree?” Arioch then explained the matter to Daniel.

Then Daniel returned to his house and explained the matter to his friends Hananiah, Mishael and Azariah.
