Daniel 2:8–12 · Berean Standard Bible
8 The king replied, “I know for sure that you are stalling for time, because you see that my word is final.
9 If you do not tell me the dream, there is only one decree for you. You have conspired to speak before me false and fraudulent words, hoping the situation will change. Therefore tell me the dream, and I will know that you can give me its interpretation.”
10 The astrologers answered the king, “No one on earth can do what the king requests! No king, however great and powerful, has ever asked anything like this of any magician, enchanter, or astrologer.
11 What the king requests is so difficult that no one can tell it to him except the gods, whose dwelling is not with mortals.”
12 This response made the king so furious with anger that he gave orders to destroy all the wise men of Babylon.
