27:001:018 Now at the end of the days that the king had said he should
bring them in, then the prince of the eunuchs brought them in
before Nebuchadnezzar.
27:001:019 And the king communed with them; and among them all was found
none like Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah: therefore
stood they before the king.
27:001:020 And in all matters of wisdom and understanding, that the king
enquired of them, he found them ten times better than all the
magicians and astrologers that were in all his realm.
27:001:021 And Daniel continued even unto the first year of king Cyrus.
27:002:001 And in the second year of the reign of Nebuchadnezzar
Nebuchadnezzar dreamed dreams, wherewith his spirit was
troubled, and his sleep brake from him.
27:002:002 Then the king commanded to call the magicians, and the
astrologers, and the sorcerers, and the Chaldeans, for to shew
the king his dreams. So they came and stood before the king.
27:002:003 And the king said unto them, I have dreamed a dream, and my spirit was troubled to know the dream.
27:002:004 Then spake the Chaldeans to the king in Syriack, O king, live for ever: tell thy servants the dream, and we will shew the interpretation.
27:002:005 The king answered and said to the Chaldeans, The thing is gone from me: if ye will not make known unto me the dream, with the interpretation thereof, ye shall be cut in pieces, and your houses shall be made a dunghill.
27:002:006 But if ye shew the dream, and the interpretation thereof, ye shall receive of me gifts and rewards and great honour: therefore shew me the dream, and the interpretation thereof.
