O Belteshazzar, master of the magicians, because I know that the spirit of the holy gods is in thee, and no secret troubleth thee, tell me the visions of my dream that I have seen, and the interpretation thereof.
“O
Belteshazzar, chief of the magicians, I know that the spirit of the holy gods is in you and that no
mystery baffles you. So explain to me the visions I saw in my dream, and their interpretation.
This dream I king
Nebuchadnezzar have seen. Now thou, O
Belteshazzar, declare the interpretation thereof,
forasmuch as all the wise men of my kingdom are not able to make known unto me the interpretation: but thou art able; for the spirit of the holy gods is in thee.
This is the dream that I, King
Nebuchadnezzar, saw. Now,
Belteshazzar, tell me the interpretation, because none of the wise men of my kingdom can
interpret it for me. But you are able, because the spirit of the holy gods is in you.”

hate thee, and the interpretation thereof to thine enemies.

perplexed, and his thoughts

hate you, and its interpretation to your enemies!

Nebuchadnezzar had taken out of the temple which was in Jerusalem; that the king, and his princes, his wives, and his concubines, might drink therein.
Under the influence of the wine,
Belshazzar gave orders to bring in the gold and silver vessels that
Nebuchadnezzar his father had taken from the temple in Jerusalem, so that the king could drink from them, along with his nobles, his wives, and his concubines.
Then was king
Belshazzar greatly troubled, and his countenance was changed in him, and his lords were
astonied.
Forasmuch as an excellent spirit, and knowledge, and understanding,
interpreting of dreams, and
shewing of hard sentences, and
dissolving of doubts, were found in the same Daniel, whom the king named
Belteshazzar: now let Daniel be called, and he will
shew the interpretation.
did this because Daniel, the one he named
Belteshazzar, was found to have an extraordinary spirit, as well as knowledge, understanding, and the ability to
interpret dreams, explain
riddles, and
solve difficult problems.

whatsoever were found on him, because he had trusted in his God.

belongeth unto thee, but unto us confusion of faces, as at this day; to the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and unto all Israel, that are near, and that are far off, through all the countries
whither thou hast driven them, because of their
trespass that they have
trespassed against thee.

belongeth confusion of face, to our kings, to our princes, and to our fathers, because we have

adulteress, according to the love of the LORD toward the children of Israel, who look to other gods, and love flagons of wine.

adulteress. Love her as the LORD loves the Israelites, though they turn to other gods and offer
raisin cakes to idols.”
And I said unto her, Thou shalt
abide for me many days; thou shalt not play the
harlot, and thou shalt not be for another man: so will I also be for thee.
Then I said to her, “You must live with me for many days; you must not be
promiscuous or
belong to another, and I will do the same for you.”
Ephraim is
smitten, their root is dried up, they shall bear no fruit:
yea, though they bring forth, yet will I

slay the darlings of their wombs.

And
whosoever shall
offend one of these little ones that
believe in me, it is better for him that a
millstone were
hanged about his neck, and he were cast into the sea.
