    44 In the days of those kings, the God of heaven will establish a kingdom that will never be destroyed, nor will it be left to another people. It will crush all these kingdoms and bring them to an end, but it will stand forever.

    25 Then Arioch hurriedly brought Daniel before the king and said to him, "I have found a man from among the exiles of Judah who will reveal the interpretation to the king."

    26 The king said to Daniel, who was also called Belteshazzar, "Are you able to make known to me the dream which I saw and its interpretation?"

    27 Daniel answered the king, saying, "The mystery which the king asks about cannot be revealed by wise men, enchanters, magicians, or diviners.

    28 However, there is a God in heaven who reveals mysteries. He has made known to King Nebuchadnezzar what will happen in the latter days. Your dream and the visions in your mind as you lay on your bed are as follows.

    29 As for you, O king, your thoughts came into your mind while on your bed about what would happen in the future, and He who reveals mysteries has made known to you what is to come.

    30 But as for me, this mystery has not been revealed to me because of any wisdom that I have more than anyone else, but so that the interpretation may be made known to the king and that you may understand the thoughts of your heart.

    31 You, O king, were watching, and behold, a great image! This image, immense and of dazzling brightness, stood before you, and its appearance was frightening.

    32 The head of this image was of fine gold, its chest and arms of silver, its belly and thighs of bronze.

    33 Its legs were made of iron, and its feet were part iron and part clay.

    34 While you were watching, a stone was cut out, not by human hands. It struck the statue on its iron and clay feet and broke them into pieces.

    35 Then the iron, the clay, the bronze, the silver, and the gold were all crushed together and became like chaff from a summer threshing floor. The wind carried them away so that no trace of them was found. But the stone that struck the statue became a great mountain and filled the whole earth.

    1 In the second year of Nebuchadnezzar’s reign, Nebuchadnezzar had dreams that deeply troubled his spirit, and his sleep left him.

    2 So the king commanded to summon the magicians, enchanters, sorcerers, and Chaldeans to explain his dreams to him. They came and stood before the king.

    3 The king said to them, "I have dreamed a dream, and my spirit is troubled to understand the dream."

    4 Then the Chaldeans spoke to the king in Aramaic, "O king, live forever! Tell the dream to your servants, and we will reveal its interpretation."

    5 The king answered the Chaldeans, saying, "The command from me is firm: if you do not make the dream and its interpretation known to me, you will be torn limb from limb, and your houses will be turned into rubble.

    6 But if you reveal the dream and its interpretation, you will receive gifts, rewards, and great honor from me. So declare the dream and its interpretation to me."

    7 They answered again, saying, "Let the king tell the dream to his servants, and we will reveal its interpretation."

    8 The king responded, "I am certain that you are trying to gain time because you see that my command is firm.

    9 If you do not make the dream known to me, there is only one decree for you. You have agreed to speak false and corrupt words before me until the situation changes. Therefore, tell me the dream, so that I may know that you can reveal its interpretation."

    10 The Chaldeans answered the king, saying, "There is no man on earth who can declare the king's matter. No great and powerful king has ever asked such a thing from any magician, enchanter, or Chaldean.

    17 The tree you saw, which grew large and strong, whose height reached to the heavens and which was visible to the whole earth,

    37 You, O king, are the king of kings, for the God of heaven has given you a kingdom, power, strength, and glory.

    38 He has placed into your hands control over every person, animal, and bird that dwells under the heavens. Wherever they live, He has given you sovereignty over them all. You are the head of gold.

    39 After you, another kingdom will arise, inferior to yours; then a third kingdom, made of bronze, which will rule over the whole earth.

    40 Finally, there will be a fourth kingdom, strong as iron, for iron crushes and shatters everything. And just as iron breaks in pieces, it will crush and break all the others.

    41 But as you saw the feet and toes made partly of potter’s clay and partly of iron, it will be a divided kingdom. However, it will have some of the strength of iron, as you saw the iron mixed with the clay.

    42 And as the toes of the feet were partly iron and partly clay, so the kingdom will be partly strong and partly fragile.

    5 Finally, Daniel came before me (whose name is Belteshazzar, named after my god, and in whom the spirit of the holy gods resides), and I told him the dream.

    6 O Belteshazzar, chief of the magicians, I know that the spirit of the holy gods is in you and that no mystery is too difficult for you. Here are the visions of my dream that I saw; interpret them for me.

    7 These were the visions I saw while lying on my bed: I looked, and there stood a tree in the middle of the earth, and its height was enormous.

    8 The tree grew large and strong, its top reached the heavens, and it was visible to the ends of the earth.

    9 Its leaves were beautiful, its fruit abundant, and it provided food for all. The beasts of the field found shade under it, the birds of the heavens lived in its branches, and every creature was fed from it.

    10 In the visions I saw while lying on my bed, I looked, and there was a watcher, a holy one, coming down from heaven.
