Daniel:5:8-12
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Then came in all the king '
s wise men :
but they could not read the writing ,
nor make known to the king the interpretation thereof .
*
Then was king Belshazzar greatly troubled ,
and his countenance was changed in him ,
and his lords were astonied .
*
Now the queen ,
by reason of the words of the king and his lords ,
came into the banquet house :
and the queen spake and said ,
O king ,
live for ever :
let not thy thoughts trouble thee ,
nor let thy countenance be changed :
*
There is a man in thy kingdom ,
in whom is the spirit of the holy gods ;
and in the days of thy father light and understanding and wisdom ,
like the wisdom of the gods ,
was found in him ;
whom the king Nebuchadnezzar thy father ,
the king ,
I say ,
thy father ,
made master of the magicians ,
astrologers ,
Chaldeans ,
and soothsayers ;
*
Forasmuch as an excellent spirit ,
and knowledge ,
and understanding ,
interpreting of dreams ,
and shewing of hard sentences ,
and dissolving of doubts ,
were found in the same Daniel ,
whom the king named Belteshazzar :
now let Daniel be called ,
and he will shew the interpretation .
