No king, however great and powerful, has ever asked anything like this of any magician, enchanter, or astrologer.Daniel 2:11 · מַלְכָּ֤ה · מַלְכָּ֑אWhat the king requests is so difficult that no one can tell it to him except the gods, whose dwelling is not with mortals.”Daniel 2:12 · מַלְכָּ֕אThis response made the king so angry and furious that he gave orders to destroy all the wise men of Babylon.Daniel 2:14 · מַלְכָּ֑אWhen Arioch, the commander of the king’s guard, went out to execute the wise men of Babylon, Daniel responded with discretion and tact.Daniel 2:15 · מַלְכָּ֔א · מַלְכָּ֑א“Why is the decree from the king so harsh?” he asked. Then Arioch explained the situation to Daniel.Daniel 2:16 · מַלְכָּ֑א · לְמַלְכָּֽא׃ פSo Daniel went in and asked the king to give him some time, so that he could give him the interpretation.Daniel 2:21 · מַלְכִ֖ין · מַלְכִ֑יןHe changes the times and seasons; He removes kings and establishes them. He gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to the discerning.Daniel 2:23 · מַלְכָּ֖אTo You, O God of my fathers, I give thanks and praise, because You have given me wisdom and power.

Bring me before the king, and I will give him the interpretation.”Daniel 2:25 · מַלְכָּ֑א · לְמַלְכָּ֥אArioch hastily brought Daniel before the king and said to him, “I have found a man among the exiles from Judah who will tell the king the interpretation.”Daniel 2:26 · מַלְכָּא֙The king responded to Daniel, whose name was Belteshazzar, “Are you able to tell me what I saw in the dream, as well as its interpretation?”Daniel 2:27 · מַלְכָּ֖א · מַלְכָּ֣א · לְמַלְכָּֽא׃Daniel answered the king, “No wise man, enchanter, medium, or magician can explain to the king the mystery of which he inquires.Daniel 2:28 · לְמַלְכָּא֙But there is a God in heaven who reveals mysteries, and He has made known to King Nebuchadnezzar what will happen in the latter days. Your dream and the visions that came into your mind as you lay on your bed were these:Daniel 2:29 · מַלְכָּ֗אAs you lay on your bed, O king, your thoughts turned to the future, and the Revealer of Mysteries made known to you what will happen.Daniel 2:30 · לְמַלְכָּ֣אAnd to me this mystery has been revealed, not because I have more wisdom than any man alive, but in order that the interpretation might be made known to the king, and that you may understand the thoughts of your mind.Daniel 2:31 · מַלְכָּ֗אAs you, O king, were watching, a great statue appeared. A great and dazzling statue stood before you, and its form was awesome.Daniel 2:36 · מַלְכָּֽא׃This was the dream; now we will tell the king its interpretation.Daniel 2:37 · מַלְכָּ֔א · מֶ֖לֶךְ · מַלְכַיָּ֑אYou, O king, are the king of kings, to whom the God of heaven has given sovereignty, power, strength, and glory.Daniel 2:44 · מַלְכַיָּ֣אIn the days of those kings, the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that will never be destroyed, nor will it be left to another people. It will shatter all these kingdoms and bring them to an end, but will itself stand forever.Daniel 2:45 · לְמַלְכָּ֔אAnd just as you saw a stone being cut out of the mountain without human hands, and it shattered the iron, bronze, clay, silver, and gold, so the great God has told the king what will happen in the future. The dream is true, and its interpretation is trustworthy.”Daniel 2:46 · מַלְכָּ֤אAt this, King Nebuchadnezzar fell on his face, paid homage to Daniel, and ordered that an offering and incense be presented to him.Daniel 2:47 · מַלְכָּ֨א · מַלְכִ֖יןThe king said to Daniel, “Your God is truly the God of gods and Lord of kings, the Revealer of Mysteries, since you were able to reveal this mystery.”Daniel 2:48 · מַלְכָּ֜אThen the king promoted Daniel and gave him many generous gifts. He made him ruler over the entire province of Babylon and chief administrator over all the wise men of Babylon.Daniel 2:49 · מַלְכָּ֔א · מַלְכָּֽא׃ פAnd at Daniel’s request, the king appointed Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego to manage the province of Babylon, while Daniel remained in the king’s court.Daniel 3:1 · מַלְכָּ֗אKing Nebuchadnezzar made a golden statue sixty cubits high and six cubits wide, and he set it up on the plain of Dura in the province of Babylon.Daniel 3:2 · מַלְכָּ֡א · מַלְכָּֽא׃Then King Nebuchadnezzar sent word to assemble the satraps, prefects, governors, advisers, treasurers, judges, magistrates, and all the other officials of the provinces to attend the dedication of the statue he had set up.Daniel 3:3 · מַלְכָּ֑אSo the satraps, prefects, governors, advisers, treasurers, judges, magistrates, and all the rulers of the provinces assembled for the dedication of the statue that King Nebuchadnezzar had set up, and they stood before it.Daniel 3:5 · מַלְכָּֽא׃As soon as you hear the sound of the horn, flute, zither, lyre, harp, pipes, and all kinds of music, you must fall down and worship the golden statue that King Nebuchadnezzar has set up.Daniel 3:7 · מַלְכָּֽא׃Therefore, as soon as all the people heard the sound of the horn, flute, zither, lyre, harp, and all kinds of music, the people of every nation and language would fall down and worship the golden statue that King Nebuchadnezzar had set up.Daniel 3:9 · מַלְכָּ֑א · מַלְכָּ֖אsaying to King Nebuchadnezzar, “O king, may you live forever!Daniel 3:10 · מַלְכָּא֮You, O king, have issued a decree that everyone who hears the sound of the horn, flute, zither, lyre, harp, pipes, and all kinds of music must fall down and worship the golden statue,Daniel 3:12 · מַלְכָּא֙But there are some Jews you have appointed to manage the province of Babylon—Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego—who have ignored you, O king, and have refused to serve your gods or worship the golden statue you have set up.”Daniel 3:13 · מַלְכָּֽא׃Then Nebuchadnezzar, furious with rage, summoned Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. So these men were brought before the king,Daniel 3:16 · לְמַלְכָּ֑אShadrach, Meshach, and Abednego replied to the king, “O Nebuchadnezzar, we have no need to answer you in this matter.Daniel 3:17 · מַלְכָּ֖אIf the God whom we serve exists, then He is able to deliver us from the blazing fiery furnace and from your hand, O king.Daniel 3:18 · מַלְכָּ֑אBut even if He does not, let it be known to you, O king, that we will not serve your gods or worship the golden statue you have set up.”Daniel 3:22 · מַלְכָּא֙The king’s command was so urgent and the furnace so hot that the fiery flames killed the men who carried up Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego.Daniel 3:24 · מַלְכָּ֔א · לְמַלְכָּ֔א · מַלְכָּֽא׃Suddenly King Nebuchadnezzar jumped up in amazement and asked his advisers, “Did we not throw three men, firmly bound, into the fire?” “Certainly, O king,” they replied.Daniel 3:27 · מַלְכָּא֒and when the satraps, prefects, governors, and royal advisers had gathered around, they saw that the fire had no effect on the bodies of these men. Not a hair of their heads was singed, their robes were unaffected, and there was no smell of fire on them.Daniel 3:28 · מַלְכָּא֙Nebuchadnezzar declared, “Blessed be the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, who has sent His angel and delivered His servants who trusted in Him. They violated the king’s command and risked their lives rather than serve or worship any god except their own God.Daniel 3:30 · מַלְכָּ֗אThen the king promoted Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego in the province of Babylon.Daniel 4:1 · מַלְכָּ֗אKing Nebuchadnezzar, To the people of every nation and language who dwell in all the earth: May your prosperity be multiplied.Daniel 4:18 · מַלְכָּ֣אThis is the dream that I, King Nebuchadnezzar, saw. Now, Belteshazzar, tell me the interpretation, because none of the wise men of my kingdom can interpret it for me. But you are able, because the spirit of the holy gods is in you.”Daniel 4:19 · מַלְכָּ֜אFor a time, Daniel, who was also known as Belteshazzar, was perplexed, and his thoughts alarmed him. So the king said, “Belteshazzar, do not let the dream or its interpretation alarm you.” “My lord,” replied Belteshazzar, “may the dream apply to those who hate you, and its interpretation to your enemies!Daniel 4:22 · מַלְכָּ֔אyou, O king, are that tree! For you have become great and strong; your greatness has grown to reach the sky, and your dominion extends to the ends of the earth.Daniel 4:23 · מַלְכָּ֡אAnd you, O king, saw a watcher, a holy one, coming down from heaven and saying: ‘Cut down the tree and destroy it, but leave the stump with its roots in the ground, with a band of iron and bronze around it, in the tender grass of the field. Let him be drenched with the dew of heaven, and graze with the beasts of the field till seven times pass him by.’Daniel 4:24 · מַלְכָּ֑א · מַלְכָּֽא׃This is the interpretation, O king, and this is the decree that the Most High has issued against my lord the king:Daniel 4:27 · מַלְכָּ֗אTherefore, may my advice be pleasing to you, O king. Break away from your sins by doing what is right, and from your iniquities by showing mercy to the oppressed. Perhaps there will be an extension of your prosperity.”Daniel 4:28 · מַלְכָּֽא׃ פAll this happened to King Nebuchadnezzar.Daniel 4:30 · מַלְכָּא֙the king exclaimed, “Is this not Babylon the Great, which I myself have built as a royal residence by the might of my power and for the glory of my majesty?”Daniel 4:31 · מַלְכָּ֔א · מַלְכָּ֔אWhile the words were still in the king’s mouth, a voice came from heaven: “It is decreed to you, King Nebuchadnezzar, that the kingdom has departed from you.Daniel 4:37 · לְמֶ֣לֶךְNow I, Nebuchadnezzar, praise and exalt and glorify the King of heaven, for all His works are true and all His ways are just. And He is able to humble those who walk in pride.Daniel 5:1 · מַלְכָּ֗אLater, King Belshazzar held a great feast for a thousand of his nobles, and he drank wine with them.Daniel 5:2 · מַלְכָּא֙Under the influence of the wine, Belshazzar gave orders to bring in the gold and silver vessels that Nebuchadnezzar his father had taken from the temple in Jerusalem, so that the king could drink from them, along with his nobles, his wives, and his concubines.Daniel 5:3 · מַלְכָּא֙Thus they brought in the gold vessels that had been taken from the temple, the house of God in Jerusalem, and the king drank from them, along with his nobles, his wives, and his concubines.Daniel 5:5 · מַלְכָּ֑א · וּמַלְכָּ֣אAt that moment the fingers of a human hand appeared and wrote on the plaster of the wall, near the lampstand in the royal palace. As the king watched the hand that was writing,Daniel 5:6 · מַלְכָּא֙his face grew pale and his thoughts so alarmed him that his hips gave way and his knees knocked together.Daniel 5:7 · מַלְכָּא֙ · מַלְכָּ֜אThe king called out for the enchanters, astrologers, and diviners to be brought in, and he said to these wise men of Babylon, “Whoever reads this inscription and tells me its interpretation will be clothed in purple and have a gold chain placed around his neck, and he will be made the third highest ruler in the kingdom.”Daniel 5:8 · מַלְכָּ֑א · לְמַלְכָּֽא׃So all the king’s wise men came in, but they could not read the inscription or interpret it for him.Daniel 5:9 · מַלְכָּ֤אThen King Belshazzar became even more terrified, his face grew even more pale, and his nobles were bewildered.Daniel 5:10 · מַלְכָּא֙ · מַלְכָּא֙Hearing the outcry of the king and his nobles, the queen entered the banquet hall. “O king, may you live forever!” she said. “Do not let your thoughts terrify you, or your face grow pale.Daniel 5:11 · וּמַלְכָּ֤א · מַלְכָּֽא׃There is a man in your kingdom who has the spirit of the holy gods in him. In the days of your father he was found to have insight, intelligence, and wisdom like that of the gods. Your father, King Nebuchadnezzar, appointed him chief of the magicians, enchanters, astrologers, and diviners. Your own father, the king,Daniel 5:12 · מַלְכָּ֥אdid this because Daniel, the one he named Belteshazzar, was found to have an extraordinary spirit, as well as knowledge, understanding, and the ability to interpret dreams, explain riddles, and solve difficult problems. Summon Daniel, therefore, and he will give you the interpretation.”Daniel 5:13 · מַלְכָּ֑א · מַלְכָּ֜א · מַלְכָּ֥אSo Daniel was brought before the king, who asked him, “Are you Daniel, one of the exiles my father the king brought from Judah?Daniel 5:17 · מַלְכָּ֔א · לְמַלְכָּ֔אIn response, Daniel said to the king, “You may keep your gifts for yourself and give your rewards to someone else. Nevertheless, I will read the inscription for the king and interpret it for him.Daniel 5:18 · מַלְכָּ֑אAs for you, O king, the Most High God gave your father Nebuchadnezzar sovereignty and greatness, glory and honor.Daniel 5:30 · מַלְכָּ֥אThat very night Belshazzar king of the Chaldeans was slain,Daniel 6:2 · וּמַלְכָּ֖אand over them three administrators, including Daniel, to whom these satraps were accountable so that the king would not suffer loss.Daniel 6:3 · וּמַלְכָּ֣אSoon, by his extraordinary spirit, Daniel distinguished himself among the administrators and satraps. So the king planned to set him over the whole kingdom.Daniel 6:6 · מַלְכָּ֑א · מַלְכָּ֖אSo the administrators and satraps went together to the king and said, “O King Darius, may you live forever!Daniel 6:7 · מַלְכָּ֔א · מַלְכָּ֔אAll the royal administrators, prefects, satraps, advisers, and governors have agreed that the king should establish an ordinance and enforce a decree that for thirty days anyone who petitions any god or man except you, O king, will be thrown into the den of lions.Daniel 6:8 · מַלְכָּ֔אTherefore, O king, establish the decree and sign the document so that it cannot be changed—in accordance with the law of the Medes and Persians, which cannot be repealed.”Daniel 6:9 · מַלְכָּא֙Therefore King Darius signed the written decree.Daniel 6:12 · מַלְכָּא֮ · מַלְכָּא֒ · מַלְכָּ֔א · מַלְכָּ֜אSo they approached the king and asked about his royal decree: “Did you not sign a decree that for thirty days any man who petitions any god or man except you, O king, will be thrown into the den of lions?” The king replied, “According to the law of the Medes and Persians the order stands, and it cannot be repealed.”Daniel 6:13 · מַלְכָּא֒ · מַלְכָּא֙Then they told the king, “Daniel, one of the exiles from Judah, shows no regard for you, O king, or for the decree that you have signed. He still makes his petition three times a day.”Daniel 6:14 · מַלְכָּ֜אAs soon as the king heard this, he was deeply distressed and set his mind on delivering Daniel, and he labored until sundown to rescue him.Daniel 6:15 · מַלְכָּ֑א · לְמַלְכָּ֗א · מַלְכָּא֙ · מַלְכָּ֥אThen the men approached the king together and said to him, “Remember, O king, that by the law of the Medes and Persians no decree or ordinance established by the king can be changed.”Daniel 6:16 · מַלְכָּ֣א · מַלְכָּא֙So the king gave the order, and they brought Daniel and threw him into the den of lions. The king said to Daniel, “May your God, whom you serve continually, deliver you!”Daniel 6:17 · מַלְכָּ֜אA stone was brought and placed over the mouth of the den, and the king sealed it with his own signet ring and with the rings of his nobles, so that nothing concerning Daniel could be changed.Daniel 6:18 · מַלְכָּ֤אThen the king went to his palace and spent the night fasting. No entertainment was brought before him, and sleep fled from him.Daniel 6:19 · מַלְכָּ֔אAt the first light of dawn, the king got up and hurried to the den of lions.Daniel 6:20 · מַלְכָּ֜אWhen he reached the den, he cried out in a voice of anguish, “O Daniel, servant of the living God, has your God, whom you serve continually, been able to deliver you from the lions?”Daniel 6:21 · מַלְכָּ֖א · מַלְכָּ֖אThen Daniel replied, “O king, may you live forever!Daniel 6:22 · מַלְכָּ֔אMy God sent His angel and shut the mouths of the lions. They have not hurt me, for I was found innocent in His sight, and I have done no wrong against you, O king.”Daniel 6:23 · מַלְכָּ֗אThe king was overjoyed and gave orders to lift Daniel out of the den, and when Daniel was lifted out of the den, no wounds whatsoever were found on him, because he had trusted in his God.Daniel 6:24 · מַלְכָּ֗אAt the command of the king, the men who had falsely accused Daniel were brought and thrown into the den of lions—they and their children and wives. And before they had reached the bottom of the den, the lions overpowered them and crushed all their bones.Daniel 6:25 · מַלְכָּ֗אThen King Darius wrote to the people of every nation and language throughout the land: “May your prosperity abound.Daniel 7:1 · מֶ֣לֶךְIn the first year of the reign of Belshazzar over Babylon, Daniel had a dream, and visions passed through his mind as he lay on his bed. He wrote down the dream, and this is the summary of his account.Daniel 7:17 · מַלְכִ֖ין‘These four great beasts are four kings who will arise from the earth.Daniel 7:24 · מַלְכִ֖ין · מַלְכִ֖יןAnd the ten horns are ten kings who will rise from this kingdom. After them another king, different from the earlier ones, will rise and subdue three kings.
