Daniel 2:5-7

Good News Translation

⁵ The king said to them, “I have made up my mind that you must tell me the dream and then tell me what it means. If you can't, I'll have you torn limb from limb and make your houses a pile of ruins. ⁶ But if you can tell me both the dream and its meaning, I will reward you with gifts and great honor. Now then, tell me what the dream was and what it means.”

⁷ They answered the king again, “If Your Majesty will only tell us what the dream was, we will explain it.”
