4:6	Therefore I made I a decree tothat bring in all the wise men of Babylon should be brought before me that they might make known untoto me the interpretation of the dream
4:7	Then came in the magicians the enchanters the ChaldeansChalde′ans and the soothsayersastrologers came in; and I told them the dream before them; but they didcould not make known untoto me theits interpretation thereof
4:8	ButAt at the last Daniel came in before me—he whosewho name was Belteshazzarnamed accordingBelteshaz′zar toafter the name of my god and in whom is the spirit of the holy gods: —and I told him the dream before him saying
4:9	O BelteshazzarBelteshaz′zar masterchief of the magicians because I know that the spirit of the holy gods is in theeyou and that no secretmystery troublethis theedifficult tellfor meyou thehere visionsis ofthe my dream thatwhich I havesaw; seentell andme theits interpretation thereof
4:10	ThusThe were the visions of my head uponas myI lay in bed were these: I saw and behold a tree in the midst of the earth; and theits height thereof was great
4:11	The tree grew and wasbecame strong and theits heighttop thereof reached untoto heaven and theit sightwas thereofvisible to the end of all the whole earth
4:12	TheIts leaves thereof were fair and theits fruit thereofabundant much and in it was food for all: theThe beasts of the field hadfound shadowshade under it and the birds of the heavensair dwelt in theits branches thereof and all flesh was fed from it
4:13	I saw in the visions of my head uponas myI lay in bed and behold a watcher and a holy one came down from heaven
4:14	He cried aloud and said thus Hew down the tree and cut off its branches shakestrip off its leaves and scatter its fruit:; let the beasts getflee away from under it and the fowlsbirds from its branches
4:15	NeverthelessBut leave the stump of its roots in the earth evenbound with a band of iron and brassbronze inamid the tender grass of the field; andLet lethim it be wet with the dew of heaven:; and let his portionlot be with the beasts in the grass of the earth:;
4:16	let his heartmind be changed from a mans and let a beasts heartmind be given untoto him; and let seven times pass over him
4:17	The sentence is by the decree of the watchers and the demanddecision by the word of the holy ones; to the intentend that the living may know that the Most High rulethrules in the kingdom of men and givethgives it to whomsoeverwhom he will and settethsets up over it the lowestlowliest of men

4:24	this is the interpretation O king: andIt it is thea decree of the Most High which ishas come upon my lord the king:
4:25	that thouyou shaltshall be driven from among men and thyyour dwelling shall be with the beasts of the field; andyou thoushall shalt be made to eat grass aslike oxenan ox and shaltyou shall be wet with the dew of heaven and seven times shall pass over thee;you till thouyou know that the Most High rulethrules in the kingdom of men and givethgives it to whomsoeverwhom he will

5:11	There is a man in thyyour kingdom a man in whom is the spirit of the holy gods; andIn in the days of thyyour father light and understanding and wisdom like the wisdom of the gods were found in him; and theKing kingNebuchadnez′zar Nebuchadnezzaryour thy father the king I say thy father made him masterchief of the magicians enchanters ChaldeansChalde′ans and soothsayers;astrologers
5:12	forasmuchbecause as an excellent spirit and knowledge and understanding interpretingto ofinterpret dreams andexplain showingriddles of dark sentences and dissolvingsolve ofproblems doubts were found in thethis same Daniel whom the king named BelteshazzarBelteshaz′zar Now let Daniel be called and he will show the interpretation
5:13	Then Daniel was Daniel brought in before the king The king spake and said untoto Daniel ArtYou thouare that Daniel whoone art of the childrenexiles of the captivity of Judah whom the king my father brought outfrom of Judah
5:14	I have heard of theeyou that the spirit of the holy gods is in theeyou and that light and understanding and excellent wisdom are found in theeyou
5:15	AndNow now the wise men the enchanters have been brought in before me thatto they should read this writing and make known untoto me theits interpretation thereof; but they could not show the interpretation of the thingmatter
5:16	But I have heard of thee that thouyou canstcan give interpretations and dissolvesolve doubts:problems nowNow if thouyou canstcan read the writing and make known to me theits interpretation thereofyou thoushall shalt be clothed with purple and have a chain of gold about thyyour neck and shaltshall be the third ruler in the kingdom
5:17	Then Daniel answered and said before the king Let thyyour gifts be tofor thyselfyourself and give thyyour rewards to another; nevertheless I will read the writing untoto the king and make known to him the interpretation
5:18	O thou king the Most High God gave NebuchadnezzarNebuchadnez′zar thyyour father thekingship kingdom and greatness and glory and majesty:;
5:19	and because of the greatness that he gave him all the peoples nations and languages trembled and feared before him:; whom he would he slew and whom he would he kept alive; and whom he would he raised up and whom he would he put down
5:20	But when his heart was lifted up and his spirit was hardened so that he dealt proudly he was deposed from his kingly throne and they took his glory was taken from him:;
5:21	and he was driven from theamong sons of men and his heartmind was made like thethat beastsof a beast and his dwelling was with the wild asses; he was fed with grass like oxenan ox and his body was wet with the dew of heaven; until he knew that the Most High God rulethrules in the kingdom of men and thatsets he setteth up over it whomsoeverwhom he will
5:22	And thouyou his son OBelshaz′zar Belshazzarhave hast not humbled thyyour heart though thouyou knewestknew all this
5:23	but hastyou have lifted up thyselfyourself against the Lord of heaven; and they have brought the vessels of his house have been brought in before theeyou and thouyou and thyyour lords thyyour wives and thyyour concubines have drunk wine from them; and thouyou hasthave praised the gods of silver and gold of brassbronze iron wood and stone which seedo not norsee or hear noror know; andbut the God in whose hand thyis your breath is and whose are all thyyour ways hastyou thouhave not glorified honored
5:24	Then wasfrom thehis partpresence of the hand was sent from before him and this writing was inscribed
5:25	And this is the writing that was inscribed: mene mene tekel upharsinand parsin
5:26	This is the interpretation of the thingmatter: mene; God hathhas numbered thythe days of your kingdom and brought it to an end;
5:27	tekel; thouyou arthave been weighed in the balances and art found wanting;
5:28	peres; thyyour kingdom is divided and given to the Medes and Persians
5:29	Then Belshaz′zar commanded Belshazzar and theyDaniel was clothed Daniel with purple and put a chain of gold was put about his neck and proclamation was made proclamation concerning him that he should be the third ruler in the kingdom
5:30	InThat thatvery night BelshazzarBelshaz′zar the ChaldeanChalde′an king was slain
5:31	And Darius the Mede received the kingdom being about threescoresixty and two years old
6:1	It pleased Darius to set over the kingdom a hundred and twenty satraps whoto should be throughout the whole kingdom;
6:2	and over them three presidents of whom Daniel was one; thatto whom these satraps mightshould give account untoso them and that the king shouldmight havesuffer no damageloss
6:3	Then this Daniel wasbecame distinguished above all the other presidents and the satraps because an excellent spirit was in him; and the king thoughtplanned to set him over the whole realmkingdom
6:4	Then the presidents and the satraps sought to find occasiona ground for complaint against Daniel aswith touchingregard to the kingdom; but they could find no occasionground norfor complaint or any fault forasmuchbecause as he was faithful neitherand wasno there any error or fault was found in him
6:5	Then said these men said We shall not find any occasionground for complaint against this Daniel exceptunless we find it againstin himconnection concerningwith the law of his God
6:6	Then these presidents and satraps assembledcame togetherby agreement to the king and said thusto unto him O King Darius live for ever
6:7	All the presidents of the kingdom the deputiesprefects and the satraps the counsellorscounselors and the governors haveare consultedagreed togetherthat tothe king should establish aan royalordinance statute and toenforce makean a strong interdict that whosoeverwhoever shallmakes ask a petition ofto any god or man for thirty days saveexcept ofto theeyou O king he shall be cast into the den of lions
6:8	Now O king establish the interdict and sign the writingdocument so that it cannot be not changed according to the law of the Medes and the Persians which alterethcannot notbe revoked
6:9	WhereforeTherefore kingKing Darius signed the writingdocument and the interdict
6:10	AndWhen when Daniel knew that the writingdocument washad been signed he went intoto his house nowwhere hishe had windows were open in his upper chamber open toward Jerusalem; and he kneeledgot down upon his knees three times a day and prayed and gave thanks before his God as he didhad aforetimedone previously
6:11	Then these men assembledcame togetherby agreement and found Daniel making petition and supplication before his God
6:12	Then they came near and spakesaid before the king concerning the kings interdict: HastO thouking Did you not signedsign an interdict that everyany man thatwho shallmakes make petition untoto any god or man within thirty days saveexcept untoto theeyou O king shall be cast into the den of lions The king answered and said The thing isstands truefast according to the law of the Medes and Persians which alterethcannot notbe revoked
6:13	Then answered they andanswered said before the king That Daniel who is one of the childrenexiles offrom theJudah captivitypays ofno Judahheed regardethto notyou thee O king noror the interdict thatyou thouhave hast signed but makethmakes his petition three times a day
6:14	Then the king when he heard these words was soremuch displeaseddistressed and set his heartmind on Daniel to deliver himDaniel; and he labored till the goingsun went down of the sun to rescue him
6:15	Then these men assembledcame togetherby untoagreement to the king and said untoto the king Know O king that it is a law of the Medes and Persians that no interdict noror statuteordinance which the king establishethestablishes maycan be changed
6:16	Then the king commanded and theyDaniel was brought Daniel and cast him into the den of lions NowThe the king spake and said untoto Daniel ThyMay your God whom thouyou servestserve continually he will deliver theeyou
6:17	And a stone was brought and laid upon the mouth of the den; and the king sealed it with his own signet and with the signet of his lords; that nothing might be changed concerning Daniel
6:18	Then the king went to his palace and passedspent the night fasting; neitherno diversions were instruments of music brought beforeto him: and his sleep fled from him
6:19	Then theat kingbreak aroseof veryday earlythe inking thearose morning and went in haste untoto the den of lions
6:20	AndWhen when he came near untoto the den towhere Daniel was he cried without in a lamentabletone voice;of theanguish king spake and said to Daniel O Daniel servant of the living God ishas thyyour God whom thouyou servestserve continually been able to deliver theeyou from the lions
6:21	Then Daniel said Danielto unto the king O king live for ever
6:22	My God hath sent his angel and hath shut the lions mouths and they have not hurt me; forasmuchbecause asI before him innocency was found inblameless mebefore him; and also before theeyou O king I have I done no hurtwrong
6:23	Then was the king exceedingwas exceedingly glad and commanded that theyDaniel shouldbe taketaken Daniel up out of the den So Daniel was taken up out of the den and no mannerkind of hurt was found upon him becausebeause he had trusted in his God
6:24	And the king commanded and they brought those men thatwho had accused Daniel were brought and they cast them into the den of lions—they them their children and their wives; and thebefore lionsthey hadreached the masterybottom of the den the lions overpowered them and brakebroke all their bones in pieces before they came to the bottom of the den
6:25	Then kingKing Darius wrote untoto all the peoples nations and languages that dwell in all the earth: Peace be multiplied untoto you
6:26	I make a decree that in all themy royal dominion of my kingdom men tremble and fear before the God of Daniel; for he is the living God andenduring stedfast for ever; And his kingdom that which shall notnever be destroyed; and his dominion shall be evento unto the end
6:27	He deliverethdelivers and rescuethrescues and he workethworks signs and wonders in heaven and inon earth he who hathhas deliveredsaved Daniel from the power of the lions
6:28	So this Daniel prospered induring the reign of Darius and in the reign of Cyrus the Persian
7:1	In the first year of BelshazzarBelshaz′zar king of Babylon Daniel had a dream and visions of his head uponas he lay in his bed: thenThen he wrote down the dream and told the sum of the mattersmatter
7:2	Daniel spake and said I saw in my vision by night and behold the four winds of heaven brakewere forthstirring uponup the great sea
7:3	And four great beasts came up fromout of the sea diversedifferent from one from another
7:4	The first was like a lion and had eagles wings: Then as I beheldlooked tillits the wings thereof were plucked off and it was lifted up from the earthground and made to stand upon two feet aslike a man; and the mind of a mansman heart was given to it
7:5	And behold another beast a second one like to a bear; andIt it was raised up on one side; andit had three ribs were in its mouth between its teeth:; and theyit saidwas thustold unto it Arise devour much flesh
7:6	After this I beheldlooked and lo another like a leopard whichwith had upon its back four wings of a bird on its back; and the beast had also four heads; and dominion was given to it
7:7	After this I saw in the night visions and behold a fourth beast terrible and powerfuldreadful and exceedingly strong exceedingly; and it had great iron teeth; it devoured and brakebroke in pieces and stamped the residue with its feet: andIt it was diversedifferent from all the beasts that were before it; and it had ten horns
7:8	I considered the horns and behold there came up among them another horn a little one before which three of the first horns were plucked up by the roots:; and behold in this horn were eyes like the eyes of a man and a mouth speaking great things
7:9	As I beheldlooked till thrones were placed and one that was ancient of days didtook sit:his seat; his raiment was white as snow and the hair of his head like pure wool; his throne was fiery flames andits the wheels thereofwere burning fire
7:10	A fiery stream of fire issued and came forth from before him:; thousandsa ofthousand thousands ministeredserved unto him and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him:; the judgmentcourt wassat setin judgment and the books were opened
7:11	I beheldlooked atthen that time because of the voicesound of the great words which the horn spake;was Ispeaking beheldAnd evenas tillI looked the beast was slain and its body destroyed and itgiven wasover given to be burned with fire
7:12	AndAs as for the rest of the beasts their dominion was taken away: yetbut their lives were prolonged for a season and a time
7:13	I saw in the night visions and behold there came with the clouds of heaven there came one like unto a son of man and he came even to the ancientAncient of daysDays and theywas broughtpresented him near before him
7:14	And thereto him was given him dominion and glory and a kingdom that all the peoples nations and languages should serve him:; his dominion is an everlasting dominion which shall not pass away and his kingdom one that which shall not be destroyed
7:15	As for me Daniel my spirit waswithin grievedme inwas theanxious midst of my body and the visions of my head troubledalarmed me
7:16	I cameapproached near unto one of themthose thatwho stood bythere and asked him the truth concerning all this So he told me and made known to me know the interpretation of the things
7:17	These four great beasts which are four are four kings thatwho shall arise out of the earth
7:18	But the saints of the Most High shall receive the kingdom and possess the kingdom for ever even for ever and ever
7:19	Then I desired to know the truth concerning the fourth beast which was diversedifferent from all ofthe themrest exceedingexceedingly terrible whosewith its teeth were of iron and itsclaws nails of brassbronze; and which devoured brakeand broke in pieces and stamped the residue with its feet;
7:20	and concerning the ten horns that were on its head and the other horn which came up and before which three of them fell eventhe that horn thatwhich had eyes and a mouth that spakespoke great things whoseand lookwhich wasseemed moregreater stout than its fellows
7:21	As I beheldlooked andthis the same horn made war with the saints and prevailed againstover them;
7:22	until the ancientAncient of daysDays came and judgment was given tofor the saints of the Most High and the time came thatwhen the saints possessedreceived the kingdom
7:23	Thus he said: TheAs for the fourth beast there shall be a fourth kingdom uponon earth which shall be diversedifferent from all the kingdoms and it shall devour the whole earth and shalltrample tread it down and break it into pieces
7:24	AndAs as for the ten horns out of this kingdom shall ten kings shall arise: and another shall arise after them; and he shall be diversedifferent from the former ones and he shall put down three kings
7:25	AndHe he shall speak words against the Most High and shall wear out the saints of the Most High; and he shall think to change the times and the law; and they shall be given into his hand untilfor a time andtwo times and half a time
7:26	But the judgmentcourt shall besit setin judgment and theyhis dominion shall takebe taken away histo dominionbe toconsumed consume and destroyed to destroy it unto the end
7:27	And the kingdom and the dominion and the greatness of the kingdoms under the whole heaven shall be given to the people of the saints of the Most High:; histheir kingdom isshall be an everlasting kingdom and all dominions shall serve and obey him them
7:28	Here is the end of the matter As for me Daniel my thoughts muchgreatly troubledalarmed me and my countenancecolor was changed; in me: but I kept the matter in my heartmind
8:1	In the third year of the reign of kingKing BelshazzarBelshaz′zar a vision appeared untoto me even unto me Daniel after that which appeared untoto me at the first
8:2	And I saw in the vision; nowand it was so that when I saw I was in ShushanSusa the palacecapital which is in the province of Elam; and I saw in the vision and I was byat the river UlaiU′lai
8:3	Then I liftedraised upmy mine eyes and saw and behold therea stoodram beforestanding on the riverbank aof ramthe whichriver It had two horns:; and theboth two horns were high; but one was higher than the other and the higher one came up last
8:4	I saw the ram pushingcharging westward and northward and southward; and no beastsbeast could stand before him neitherand there was thereno anyone thatwho could deliverrescue outfrom of his handpower; but he did accordingas tohe hispleased will and magnified himself
8:5	AndAs as I was considering behold a he goat came from the west overacross the face of the whole earth andwithout touchedtouching not the ground:; and the goat had a notableconspicuous horn between his eyes
8:6	AndHe he came to the ram thatwith had the two horns which I sawhad seen standing beforeon the bank of the river and he ran uponat him in thehis furymighty ofwrath his power
8:7	And I saw him come close untoto the ram and he was movedenraged with anger against him and smotestruck the ram and brakebroke his two horns; and therethe wasram had no power in the ram to stand before him; but he cast him down to the ground and trampled upon him; and there was noneno thatone who could deliverrescue the ram outfrom of his handpower
8:8	AndThen the he goat magnified himself exceedingly:; andbut when he was strong the great horn was broken; and instead of it there came up four notableconspicuous horns toward the four winds of heaven
8:9	AndOut out of one of them came forth a little horn which waxedgrew exceedingexceedingly great toward the south and toward the east and toward the glorious land
8:10	AndIt itgrew waxed great even to the host of heaven; and some of the host and of the stars it cast down to the ground and trampled upon them
8:11	YeaIt it magnified itself even up to the princePrince of the host; and itthe tookcontinual awayburnt fromoffering himwas thetaken continualaway burntfrom offeringhim and the place of his sanctuary was castoverthrown down
8:12	And the host was given over to it together with the continual burnt offering through transgression; and ittruth was cast down truth to the ground and itthe didhorn itsacted pleasure and prospered
8:13	Then I heard a holy one speaking; and another holy one said untoto thatthe certain one whothat spakespoke HowFor how long shallis be the vision concerning the continual burnt offering and the transgression that makethmakes desolate toand givethe bothgiving over of the sanctuary and the host to be troddentrampled under foot
8:14	And he said untoto mehim UntoFor two thousand and three hundred evenings and mornings; then shall the sanctuary shall be cleansedrestored to its rightful state
8:15	AndWhen it came to pass when I even I Daniel had seen the vision that I sought to understand it; and behold there stood before me asone having the appearance of a man
8:16	And I heard a mans voice between the banks of the UlaiU′lai whichand it called and said Gabriel make this man to understand the vision
8:17	So he came near where I stood; and when he came I was affrightedfrightened and fell upon my face: butBut he said untoto me Understand O son of man; forthat the vision belongethis tofor the time of the end
8:18	NowAs as he was speaking withto me I fell into a deep sleep with my face towardto the ground; but he touched me and set me uprighton my feet
8:19	AndHe he said Behold I will make theeknown knowto you what shall be inat the latter timeend of the indignation; for it belongethpertains to the appointed time of the end
8:20	TheAs for the ram which thouyou sawestsaw thatwith had the two horns theythese are the kings of Media and Persia
8:21	And the rough he goat is the king of Greece:; and the great horn that is between his eyes is the first king
8:22	AndAs as for the horn that which was broken in the place whereofof which four stoodothers uparose four kingdoms shall standarise upfrom outhis of the nation but not with his power
8:23	And inat the latter timeend of their kingdomrule when the transgressors arehave comereached totheir the full measure a king of fiercebold countenance andone understandingwho darkunderstands sentencesriddles shall standarise up
8:24	AndHis his power shall be mightygreat but not by his own power; and he shall destroycause wonderfullyfearful destruction and shall prospersucceed andin dowhat hishe pleasure;does and he shall destroy the mighty onesmen and the holy people of the saints
8:25	AndBy through his policycunning he shall causemake craftdeceit to prosper inunder his hand; and in his own mind he shall magnify himself inWithout hiswarning hearthe and in their security shall he destroy many:; and he shall alsoeven standrise up against the princePrince of princes; but by no human hand he shall be broken without hand
8:26	AndThe the vision of the evenings and the mornings which hathhas been told is true:; but shutseal thou up the vision; for it belongethpertains to many days to come hence
8:27	And I Daniel faintedwas overcome and waslay sick certainfor some days; then I rose up and didwent about the kings business:; andbut I wonderedwas atappalled by the vision butand nonedid understoodnot understand it
9:1	In the first year of Darius the son of AhasuerusAhasu ofe′rus theby seedbirth ofa theMede Medes who wasbecame made king over the realm of the ChaldeansChalde′ans—
9:2	in the first year of his reign I Daniel understoodperceived byin the books the number of the years whereofwhich according to the word of Jehovahthe cameLord to Jeremiah the prophet formust pass before the accomplishingend of the desolations of Jerusalem evennamely seventy years
9:3	AndThen I setturned my face untoto the Lord God toseeking seekhim by prayer and supplications with fasting and sackcloth and ashes
9:4	And I prayed untoto Jehovahthe Lord my God and made confession andsaying saidO Oh Lord the great and dreadfulterrible God who keepethkeeps covenant and lovingkindnesssteadfast love with themthose thatwho love him and keep his commandments

10:7	And I Daniel alone saw the vision; for the men thatwho were with me sawdid not see the vision; but a great quakingtrembling fell upon them and they fled to hide themselves
10:8	So I was left alone and saw this great vision and there remained no strength was left in me; for my comelinessradiant appearance was turnedfearfully inchanged me into corruption and I retained no strength
