Daniel 2:5-7

EasyEnglish Bible

⁵ The king replied to the wise men, ‘I have decided what to do. You must tell me what my dream was. Then you must tell me what it means. If not, I will punish you with death! My soldiers will cut you into pieces. They will knock down your houses so that they become heaps of stones. ⁶ You must tell me about the dream and you must tell me what it means. If you do that, I will give to you many gifts and great honour. So you must tell me my dream, and tell me what it means.’

⁷ They answered the king again, ‘We are your servants, so please tell us your dream. Then we will tell you what it means.’
