"So Daniel went in and requested of the king that he would give him time, in order that he might declare the interpretation to the king."
— Daniel 2:16, NASB
“Then Daniel went in, and desired of the king that he would give him time, and that he would shew the king the interpretation.”
“And Daniel went in, and desired of the king that he would appoint him a time, and he would show the king the interpretation. ”
“Daniel went in, and desired of the king that he would appoint him a time, and he would show the king the interpretation.”
“So Daniel went in and requested the king to grant him time, that he might disclose the interpretation to the king.”
“Daniel went in, and desired of the king, that he would give him time to resolve the question, and declare it to the king.”
“And Daniel went in and made a request to the king to give him time and he would make clear the sense of his dream to the king.”
“Then Daniel went in, and desired of the king that he would give him time, and that he would shew the king the interpretation.”
So the decree went forth that the wise men should be slain; and they looked for Daniel and his friends to kill them.
Then Daniel replied with discretion and discernment to Arioch, the captain of the king's bodyguard, who had gone forth to slay the wise men of Babylon;
he said to Arioch, the king's commander, "For what reason is the decree from the king so urgent?" Then Arioch informed Daniel about the matter.
So Daniel went in and requested of the king that he would give him time, in order that he might declare the interpretation to the king.
Then Daniel went to his house and informed his friends, Hananiah, Mishael and Azariah, about the matter,
so that they might request compassion from the God of heaven concerning this mystery, so that Daniel and his friends would not be destroyed with the rest of the wise men of Babylon.
Then the mystery was revealed to Daniel in a night vision. Then Daniel blessed the God of heaven;
