Daniel 2:14-16

Names of God Bible

¹⁴ While Arioch, the captain of the royal guard, was leaving to kill the wise advisers in Babylon, Daniel spoke to him using shrewd judgment. ¹⁵ He asked Arioch, the royal official, “Why is the king’s decree so harsh?” So Arioch explained everything to Daniel.

¹⁶ Daniel went and asked the king to give him some time so that he could explain the dream’s meaning.
