Daniel 2:8-10

Holman Christian Standard Bible

⁸ The king replied, “I know for certain you are trying to gain some time, because you see that my word is final. ⁹ If you don’t tell me the dream, there is one decree for you.^(A) You have conspired to tell me something false or fraudulent until the situation changes. So tell me the dream and I will know you can give me its interpretation.”

¹⁰ The Chaldeans answered the king, “No one on earth can make known what the king requests.^(B) Consequently, no king, however great and powerful, has ever asked anything like this of any diviner-priest, medium, or Chaldean.
