7They have answered a second time, and are saying, `Let the king tell the dream to his servants, and the interpretation we do shew.
8The king hath answered and said, `Of a truth I know that time ye are gaining, because that ye have seen that the thing is gone from me,
9[so] that, if the dream ye do not cause me to know -- one is your sentence, seeing a word lying and corrupt ye have prepared to speak before me, till that the time is changed, therefore the dream tell ye to me, then do I know that its interpretation ye do shew me.`
10The Chaldeans have answered before the king, and are saying, `There is not a man on the earth who is able to shew the king`s matter; therefore, no king, chief, and ruler, hath asked such a thing as this of any scribe, and enchanter, and Chaldean;
11and the thing that the king is asking [is] precious, and others are there not that do shew it before the king, save the gods, whose dwelling is not with flesh.`
12Therefore the king hath been angry and very wroth, and hath said to destroy all the wise men of Babylon;
13And the sentence hath gone forth, and the wise men are being slain, and they have sought Daniel and his companions to be slain.
