Then ^H116 as soon ^H4481 H1768 as the copy ^H6573 of King ^H4430 Artaxerxes’ ^H783 decree ^H5407 was read ^H7123 before ^H6925 Rehum ^H7348 and Shimshai ^H8124 the scribe ^H5613 and their colleagues ^H3675, they went ^H236 in a hurry ^H924 to Jerusalem ^H3390 to the Jews ^H3062 and stopped ^H989 them by military ^H2429 force ^H153.

Then ^H116 King ^H4430 Darius ^H1868 issued ^H7761 a decree ^H2942, and a search ^H1240 was conducted ^H1240 in the [fn]archives ^H1005 H5609, where ^H1768 H8536 the treasures ^H1596 were stored ^H5182 in Babylon ^H895.

Then ^H116 Tattenai ^H8674, the governor ^H6347 of the province beyond ^H5675 the Euphrates River ^H5103, Shethar-bozenai ^H8370, and their colleagues ^H3675 carried ^H5648 out ^H5648 the decree with all ^H629 diligence ^H629, just ^H6903 as King ^H4430 Darius ^H1868 had [fn]ordered ^H7972.

Then ^H116 Daniel ^H1841 replied ^H8421 with discretion ^H5843 and discernment ^H2942 to Arioch ^H746, the captain ^H7229 of the king’s ^H4430 [fn]bodyguard ^H2877, who ^H1768 had gone ^H5312 out ^H5312 to kill ^H6992 the wise ^H2445 men ^H2445 of Babylon ^H895;

Then ^H116 Daniel ^H1841 went ^H236 to his house ^H1005 and informed ^H3046 his friends ^H2269, Hananiah ^H2608, Mishael ^H4331 and Azariah ^H5839, about the matter ^H4406,

Then ^H116 Arioch ^H746 hurriedly ^H927 brought ^H5954 Daniel ^H1841 [fn]into the king’s ^H4430 presence ^H6925 and spoke ^H560 to him as ^H3652 follows ^H3652: “I have found ^H7912 a man ^H1400 among ^H4481 the [fn]exiles ^H1123 H1547 from Judah ^H3061 who ^H1768 can make ^H3046 the interpretation ^H6591 known ^H3046 to the king ^H4430!”

Then ^H116 King ^H4430 Nebuchadnezzar ^H5020 fell ^H5308 on his face ^H600 and paid ^H5457 humble ^H5457 respect ^H5457 to Daniel ^H1841, and gave ^H560 orders ^H560 to present ^H5260 to him an offering ^H4504 and incense ^H5208.

Then ^H116 Nebuchadnezzar ^H5020 in rage ^H7266 and anger ^H2528 gave ^H560 orders ^H560 to bring ^H858 Shadrach ^H7715, Meshach ^H4336, and Abed-nego ^H5665; then ^H116 these ^H479 men ^H1400 were brought ^H858 before ^H6925 the king ^H4430.

Then ^H116 Nebuchadnezzar ^H5020 was filled ^H4391 with wrath ^H2528, and his facial ^H600 expression ^H6755 was changed ^H8133 toward ^H5922 Shadrach ^H7715, Meshach ^H4336, and Abed-nego ^H5665. He answered ^H6032 [fn]by giving ^H560 orders ^H560 to heat ^H228 the furnace ^H861 seven ^H7655 times ^H2298 more ^H5922 than ^H5922 H1768 it was usually ^H2370 heated ^H228.

Then ^H116 Nebuchadnezzar ^H5020 the king ^H4430 was astounded ^H8429 and stood ^H6966 up ^H6966 quickly ^H927; he said ^H560 to his counselors ^H1907, “Was it not three ^H8532 men ^H1400 that we threw ^H7412 bound ^H3729 into the middle ^H1459 of the fire ^H5135?” They replied ^H6032 to the king ^H4430, “Absolutely ^H3330, O king ^H4430.”

“Then ^H116 Daniel ^H1841, whose ^H1768 name ^H8036 is Belteshazzar ^H1096, was appalled ^H8075 for a while ^H8160 as his thoughts ^H7476 alarmed ^H927 him. The king ^H4430 responded ^H6032 and said ^H560, ‘Belteshazzar ^H1096, do not let the dream ^H2493 or its interpretation ^H6591 alarm ^H927 you.’ Belteshazzar ^H1096 replied ^H6032, ‘My lord ^H4756, if only the dream ^H2493 applied to those who hate ^H8131 you, and its interpretation ^H6591 to your adversaries ^H6146!

Then ^H116 Daniel ^H1841 was brought ^H5954 in ^H5954 before ^H6925 the king ^H4430. The king ^H4430 began ^H6032 speaking ^H6032 and said ^H560 to Daniel ^H1841, “Are you that Daniel ^H1841 who ^H1768 is one of the [fn]exiles ^H1123 H1547 from Judah ^H3061, whom ^H1768 my father ^H2 the king ^H4430 brought ^H858 from Judah ^H3061?

Then ^H116 Daniel ^H1841 replied ^H6032 and said ^H560 before ^H6925 the king ^H4430, “[fn]Keep your gifts ^H4978 for yourself or give ^H3052 your rewards ^H5023 to someone ^H321 else ^H321; however ^H1297, I will read ^H7123 the inscription ^H3792 to the king ^H4430 and make ^H3046 the interpretation ^H6591 known ^H3046 to him.

Then ^H116 Belshazzar ^H1113 gave ^H560 orders ^H560, and they clothed ^H3848 Daniel ^H1841 with purple ^H711 and put a necklace ^H2002 of gold ^H1722 around ^H5922 his neck ^H6676, and issued ^H3745 a ^H3745 proclamation ^H3745 concerning ^H5922 him that he now had ^H1934 authority ^H7990 as the third ^H8531 ruler in the kingdom ^H4437.

Then ^H116 Darius ^H1868 the king ^H4430 wrote ^H3790 to all ^H3606 the peoples ^H5972, nations ^H524, and populations of all [fn]languages ^H3961 who ^H1768 were living ^H1753 in all ^H3606 the land ^H772: “May your [fn]peace ^H8001 be great ^H7680!
