19Then the secret was made clear to Daniel in a vision of the night. And Daniel gave blessing to the God of heaven.
20And Daniel said in answer, May the name of God be praised for ever and ever: for wisdom and strength are his:
21By him times and years are changed: by him kings are taken away and kings are lifted up: he gives wisdom to the wise, and knowledge to those whose minds are awake:
22He is the unveiler of deep and secret things: he has knowledge of what is in the dark, and the light has its living-place with him.
23I give you praise and worship, O God of my fathers, who have given me wisdom and strength, and have now made clear to me what we were requesting from you: for you have given us knowledge of the king's business.
24For this reason Daniel went to Arioch, to whom the king had given orders for the destruction of the wise men of Babylon, and said to him, Do not put to death the wise men of Babylon: take me in before the king and I will make clear to him the sense of the dream.
25Then Arioch quickly took Daniel in before the king, and said to him, Here is a man from among the prisoners of Judah, who will make clear to the king the sense of the dream.
