Daniel 4:1-9 ▼

1 King Nabuchodonosor to all nations, tribes, and tongues, who dwell in all the earth; Peace be multiplied to you.

2 It seemed good to me to declare to you the signs and wonders which the most high God has wrought with me,

3 how great and mighty they are : his kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and his power to all generations.

4 I Nabuchodonosor was thriving in my house, and prospering.

5 I saw a vision, and it terrified me, and I was troubled on my bed, and the visions of my head troubled me.

6 And I made a decree to bring in before me all the wise men of Babylon, that they might make known to me the interpretation of the dream.

7 So the enchanters, magicians, soothsayers, and Chaldeans came in: and I told the dream before them; but they did not make known to me the interpretation thereof;

8 until Daniel came, whose name is Baltasar, according to the name of my God, who has within him the Holy Spirit of God; to whom I said,

9 O Baltasar, chief of the enchanters, of whom I know that the Holy Spirit of God is in thee, and no mystery is too hard for thee, hear the vision of my dream which I had, and tell me the interpretation of it.
