Daniel 2:5-7

New Catholic Bible

⁵ The king answered the Chaldeans, “This is what I have decided to do. If you are unable to tell me both the dream I had and its meaning, I will command that you be torn limb from limb, and your houses will be totally destroyed. ⁶ However, if you are able to tell me what I dreamed and its meaning, I will present you with gifts, rewards, and great honors. Therefore, tell me the content of the dream and its meaning.”

⁷ They replied a second time, “Let the king first reveal his dream to his servants, and we shall interpret its meaning for you.”
