دَانِيآل 2

١ 1 وَفِي ٱلسَّنَةِ ٱلثَّانِيَةِ مِنْ مُلْكِ نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرَ، حَلَمَ نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرُ أَحْلَامًا، فَٱنْزَعَجَتْ رُوحُهُ وَطَارَ عَنْهُ نَوْمُهُ.

In the second year of his reign, Nebuchadnezzar had dreams that troubled his spirit, and sleep escaped him.

٢ 2 فَأَمَرَ ٱلْمَلِكُ بِأَنْ يُسْتَدْعَى ٱلْمَجُوسُ وَٱلسَّحَرَةُ وَٱلْعَرَّافُونَ وَٱلْكَلْدَانِيُّونَ لِيُخْبِرُوا ٱلْمَلِكَ بِأَحْلَامِهِ. فَأَتَوْا وَوَقَفُوا أَمَامَ ٱلْمَلِكِ.

So the king gave orders to summon the magicians, enchanters, sorcerers, and astrologers to explain his dreams. When they came and stood before the king,

٣ 3 فَقَالَ لَهُمُ ٱلْمَلِكُ: «قَدْ حَلَمْتُ حُلْمًا وَٱنْزَعَجَتْ رُوحِي لِمَعْرِفَةِ ٱلْحُلْمِ».

he said to them, “I have had a dream, and my spirit is anxious to understand it.”

٤ 4 فَكَلَّمَ ٱلْكَلْدَانِيُّونَ ٱلْمَلِكَ بِٱلْأَرَامِيَّةِ: «عِشْ أَيُّهَا ٱلْمَلِكُ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ. أَخْبِرْ عَبِيدَكَ بِٱلْحُلْمِ فَنُبَيِّنَ تَعْبِيرَهُ».

Then the astrologers answered the king in Aramaic, “O king, may you live forever! Tell your servants the dream, and we will give the interpretation.”

٥ 5 فَأَجَابَ ٱلْمَلِكُ وَقَالَ لِلْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ: «قَدْ خَرَجَ مِنِّي ٱلْقَوْلُ: إِنْ لَمْ تُنْبِئُونِي بِٱلْحُلْمِ وَبِتَعْبِيرِهِ، تُصَيَّرُونَ إِرْبًا إِرْبًا وَتُجْعَلُ بُيُوتُكُمْ مَزْبَلَةً.

The king replied to the astrologers, “My word is final: If you do not tell me the dream and its interpretation, you will be cut into pieces and your houses will be reduced to rubble.

٦ 6 وَإِنْ بَيَّنْتُمُ ٱلْحُلْمَ وَتَعْبِيرَهُ، تَنَالُونَ مِنْ قِبَلِي هَدَايَا وَحَلَاوِينَ وَإِكْرَامًا عَظِيمًا. فَبَيِّنُوا لِي ٱلْحُلْمَ وَتَعْبِيرَهُ».

But if you tell me the dream and its interpretation, you will receive from me gifts and rewards and great honor. So tell me the dream and its interpretation.”

٧ 7 فَأَجَابُوا ثَانِيَةً وَقَالُوا: «لِيُخْبِرِ ٱلْمَلِكُ عَبِيدَهُ بِٱلْحُلْمِ فَنُبَيِّنَ تَعْبِيرَهُ».

They answered a second time, “Let the king tell the dream to his servants, and we will give the interpretation.”

٨ 8 أَجَابَ ٱلْمَلِكُ وَقَالَ: «إِنِّي أَعْلَمُ يَقِينًا أَنَّكُمْ تَكْتَسِبُونَ وَقْتًا، إِذْ رَأَيْتُمْ أَنَّ ٱلْقَوْلَ قَدْ خَرَجَ مِنِّي

The king replied, “I know for sure that you are stalling for time, because you see that my word is final.

٩ 9 بِأَنَّهُ إِنْ لَمْ تُنْبِئُونِي بِٱلْحُلْمِ فَقَضَاؤُكُمْ وَاحِدٌ. لِأَنَّكُمْ قَدِ ٱتَّفَقْتُمْ عَلَى كَلَامٍ كَذِبٍ وَفَاسِدٍ لِتَتَكَلَّمُوا بِهِ قُدَّامِي إِلَى أَنْ يَتَحَوَّلَ ٱلْوَقْتُ. فَأَخْبِرُونِي بِٱلْحُلْمِ، فَأَعْلَمَ أَنَّكُمْ تُبَيِّنُونَ لِي تَعْبِيرَهُ».

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.”

١٠ 10 أَجَابَ ٱلْكَلْدَانِيُّونَ قُدَّامَ ٱلْمَلِكِ وَقَالُوا: «لَيْسَ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ إِنْسَانٌ يَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ يُبَيِّنَ أَمْرَ ٱلْمَلِكِ. لِذَلِكَ لَيْسَ مَلِكٌ عَظِيمٌ ذُو سُلْطَانٍ سَأَلَ أَمْرًا مِثْلَ هَذَا مِنْ مَجُوسِيٍّ أَوْ سَاحِرٍ أَوْ كَلْدَانِيٍّ.

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.

١١ 11 وَٱلْأَمْرُ ٱلَّذِي يَطْلُبُهُ ٱلْمَلِكُ عَسِرٌ، وَلَيْسَ آخَرُ يُبَيِّنُهُ قُدَّامَ ٱلْمَلِكِ غَيْرَ ٱلْآلِهَةِ ٱلَّذِينَ لَيْسَتْ سُكْنَاهُمْ مَعَ ٱلْبَشَرِ».

What the king requests is so difficult that no one can tell it to him except the gods, whose dwelling is not with mortals.”

١٢ 12 لِأَجْلِ ذَلِكَ غَضِبَ ٱلْمَلِكُ وَٱغْتَاظَ جِدًّا وَأَمَرَ بِإِبَادَةِ كُلِّ حُكَمَاءِ بَابِلَ.

This response made the king so furious with anger that he gave orders to destroy all the wise men of Babylon.

١٣ 13 فَخَرَجَ ٱلْأَمْرُ، وَكَانَ ٱلْحُكَمَاءُ يُقْتَلُونَ. فَطَلَبُوا دَانِيآلَ وَأَصْحَابَهُ لِيَقْتُلُوهُمْ.

So the decree went out that the wise men were to be executed, and men went to look for Daniel and his friends to execute them.

١٤ 14 حِينَئِذٍ أَجَابَ دَانِيآلُ بِحِكْمَةٍ وَعَقْلٍ لِأَرْيُوخَ رَئِيسِ شُرَطِ ٱلْمَلِكِ ٱلَّذِي خَرَجَ لِيَقْتُلَ حُكَمَاءَ بَابِلَ، أَجَابَ وَقَالَ لِأَرْيُوخَ قَائِدِ ٱلْمَلِكِ:

When Arioch, the commander of the king’s guard, had gone out to execute the wise men of Babylon, Daniel replied with discretion and tact.

١٥ 15 «لِمَاذَا ٱشْتَدَّ ٱلْأَمْرُ مِنْ قِبَلِ ٱلْمَلِكِ؟» حِينَئِذٍ أَخْبَرَ أَرْيُوخُ دَانِيآلَ بِٱلْأَمْرِ.

“Why is the decree from the king so harsh?” he asked. At this time Arioch explained the situation to Daniel.

١٦ 16 فَدَخَلَ دَانِيآلُ وَطَلَبَ مِنَ ٱلْمَلِكِ أَنْ يُعْطِيَهُ وَقْتًا فَيُبَيِّنُ لِلْمَلِكِ ٱلتَّعْبِيرَ.

So Daniel went in and asked the king to give him some time, so that he could give him the interpretation.

١٧ 17 حِينَئِذٍ مَضَى دَانِيآلُ إِلَى بَيْتِهِ، وَأَعْلَمَ حَنَنْيَا وَمِيشَائِيلَ وَعَزَرْيَا أَصْحَابَهُ بِٱلْأَمْرِ،

Then Daniel returned to his house and explained the matter to his friends Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah,

١٨ 18 لِيَطْلُبُوا ٱلْمَرَاحِمَ مِنْ قِبَلِ إِلَهِ ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ مِنْ جِهَةِ هَذَا ٱلسِّرِّ، لِكَيْ لَا يَهْلِكَ دَانِيآلُ وَأَصْحَابُهُ مَعَ سَائِرِ حُكَمَاءِ بَابِلَ.

urging them to plead for mercy from the God of heaven concerning this mystery, so that Daniel and his friends would not be killed with the rest of the wise men of Babylon.

١٩ 19 حِينَئِذٍ لِدَانِيآلَ كُشِفَ ٱلسِّرُّ فِي رُؤْيَا ٱللَّيْلِ. فَبَارَكَ دَانِيآلُ إِلَهَ ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ.

During the night, the mystery was revealed to Daniel in a vision, and he blessed the God of heaven

٢٠ 20 أَجَابَ دَانِيآلُ وَقَالَ: «لِيَكُنِ ٱسْمُ ٱللهِ مُبَارَكًا مِنَ ٱلْأَزَلِ وَإِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ، لِأَنَّ لَهُ ٱلْحِكْمَةَ وَٱلْجَبَرُوتَ.

and declared: “Blessed be the name of God forever and ever, for wisdom and power belong to Him.

٢١ 21 وَهُوَ يُغَيِّرُ ٱلْأَوْقَاتَ وَٱلْأَزْمِنَةَ. يَعْزِلُ مُلُوكًا وَيُنَصِّبُ مُلُوكًا. يُعْطِي ٱلْحُكَمَاءَ حِكْمَةً، وَيُعَلِّمُ ٱلْعَارِفِينَ فَهْمًا.

He changes the times and seasons; He removes kings and establishes them. He gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to the discerning.

٢٢ 22 هُوَ يَكْشِفُ ٱلْعَمَائِقَ وَٱلْأَسْرَارَ. يَعْلَمُ مَا هُوَ فِي ٱلظُّلْمَةِ، وَعِنْدَهُ يَسْكُنُ ٱلنُّورُ.

He reveals the deep and hidden things; He knows what lies in darkness, and light dwells with Him.

٢٣ 23 إِيَّاكَ يَا إِلَهَ آبَائِي أَحْمَدُ، وَأُسَبِّحُ ٱلَّذِي أَعْطَانِي ٱلْحِكْمَةَ وَٱلْقُوَّةَ وَأَعْلَمَنِي ٱلْآنَ مَا طَلَبْنَاهُ مِنْكَ، لِأَنَّكَ أَعْلَمْتَنَا أَمْرَ ٱلْمَلِكِ».

To You, O God of my fathers, I give thanks and praise, because You have given me wisdom and power. And now You have made known to me what we have requested, for You have made known to us the dream of the king.”

٢٤ 24 فَمِنْ أَجْلِ ذَلِكَ دَخَلَ دَانِيآلُ إِلَى أَرْيُوخَ ٱلَّذِي عَيَّنَهُ ٱلْمَلِكُ لِإِبَادَةِ حُكَمَاءِ بَابِلَ، مَضَى وَقَالَ لَهُ هَكَذَا: «لَا تُبِدْ حُكَمَاءَ بَابِلَ. أَدْخِلْنِي إِلَى قُدَّامِ ٱلْمَلِكِ فَأُبَيِّنَ لِلْمَلِكِ ٱلتَّعْبِيرَ».

Therefore Daniel went to Arioch, whom the king had appointed to destroy the wise men of Babylon, and said to him, “Do not execute the wise men of Babylon! Bring me before the king, and I will give him the interpretation.”

٢٥ 25 حِينَئِذٍ دَخَلَ أَرْيُوخُ بِدَانِيآلَ إِلَى قُدَّامِ ٱلْمَلِكِ مُسْرِعًا وَقَالَ لَهُ هَكَذَا: «قَدْ وَجَدْتُ رَجُلًا مِنْ بَنِي سَبْيِ يَهُوذَا ٱلَّذِي يُعَرِّفُ ٱلْمَلِكَ بِٱلتَّعْبِيرِ».

Arioch hastily brought Daniel before the king and said to him, “I have found a man among the exiles from Judah who will tell the king the interpretation.”

٢٦ 26 أَجَابَ ٱلْمَلِكُ وَقَالَ لِدَانِيآلَ، ٱلَّذِي ٱسْمُهُ بَلْطَشَاصَّرُ: «هَلْ تَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْتَ عَلَى أَنْ تُعَرِّفَنِي بِٱلْحُلْمِ ٱلَّذِي رَأَيْتُ، وَبِتَعْبِيرِهِ؟»

The king responded to Daniel, whose name was Belteshazzar, “Are you able to tell me what I saw in the dream, as well as its interpretation?”

٢٧ 27 أَجَابَ دَانِيآلُ قُدَّامَ ٱلْمَلِكِ وَقَالَ: «ٱلسِّرُّ ٱلَّذِي طَلَبَهُ ٱلْمَلِكُ لَا تَقْدِرُ ٱلْحُكَمَاءُ وَلَا ٱلسَّحَرَةُ وَلَا ٱلْمَجُوسُ وَلَا ٱلْمُنَجِّمُونَ عَلَى أَنْ يُبَيِّنُوهُ لِلْمَلِكِ.

Daniel answered the king, “No wise man, enchanter, medium, or magician can explain to the king the mystery of which he inquires.

٢٨ 28 لَكِنْ يُوجَدُ إِلَهٌ فِي ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ كَاشِفُ ٱلْأَسْرَارِ، وَقَدْ عَرَّفَ ٱلْمَلِكَ نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرَ مَا يَكُونُ فِي ٱلْأَيَّامِ ٱلْأَخِيرَةِ. حُلْمُكَ وَرُؤْيَا رَأْسِكَ عَلَى فِرَاشِكَ هُوَ هَذَا:

But there is a God in heaven who reveals mysteries, and He has made known to King Nebuchadnezzar what will happen in the latter days. Your dream and the visions that came into your mind as you lay on your bed were these:

٢٩ 29 أَنْتَ يَا أَيُّهَا ٱلْمَلِكُ أَفْكَارُكَ عَلَى فِرَاشِكَ صَعِدَتْ إِلَى مَا يَكُونُ مِنْ بَعْدِ هَذَا، وَكَاشِفُ ٱلْأَسْرَارِ يُعَرِّفُكَ بِمَا يَكُونُ.

As you lay on your bed, O king, your thoughts turned to the future, and the Revealer of Mysteries made known to you what will happen.

٣٠ 30 أَمَّا أَنَا فَلَمْ يُكْشَفْ لِي هَذَا ٱلسِّرُّ لِحِكْمَةٍ فِيَّ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ كُلِّ ٱلْأَحْيَاءِ، وَلَكِنْ لِكَيْ يُعَرَّفَ ٱلْمَلِكُ بِٱلتَّعْبِيرِ، وَلِكَيْ تَعْلَمَ أَفْكَارَ قَلْبِكَ.

And to me this mystery has been revealed, not because I have more wisdom than any man alive, but in order that the interpretation might be made known to the king, and that you may understand the thoughts of your mind.

٣١ 31 «أَنْتَ أَيُّهَا ٱلْمَلِكُ كُنْتَ تَنْظُرُ وَإِذَا بِتِمْثَالٍ عَظِيمٍ. هَذَا ٱلتِّمْثَالُ ٱلْعَظِيمُ ٱلْبَهِيُّ جِدًّا وَقَفَ قُبَالَتَكَ، وَمَنْظَرُهُ هَائِلٌ.

As you, O king, were watching, a great statue appeared. A great and dazzling statue stood before you, and its form was awesome.

٣٢ 32 رَأْسُ هَذَا ٱلتِّمْثَالِ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ جَيِّدٍ. صَدْرُهُ وَذِرَاعَاهُ مِنْ فِضَّةٍ. بَطْنُهُ وَفَخْذَاهُ مِنْ نُحَاسٍ.

The head of the statue was pure gold, its chest and arms were silver, its belly and thighs were bronze,

٣٣ 33 سَاقَاهُ مِنْ حَدِيدٍ. قَدَمَاهُ بَعْضُهُمَا مِنْ حَدِيدٍ وَٱلْبَعْضُ مِنْ خَزَفٍ.

its legs were iron, and its feet were part iron and part clay.

٣٤ 34 كُنْتَ تَنْظُرُ إِلَى أَنْ قُطِعَ حَجَرٌ بِغَيْرِ يَدَيْنِ، فَضَرَبَ ٱلتِّمْثَالَ عَلَى قَدَمَيْهِ ٱللَّتَيْنِ مِنْ حَدِيدٍ وَخَزَفٍ فَسَحَقَهُمَا.

As you watched, a stone was cut out, but not by human hands. It struck the statue on its feet of iron and clay, and crushed them.

٣٥ 35 فَٱنْسَحَقَ حِينَئِذٍ ٱلْحَدِيدُ وَٱلْخَزَفُ وَٱلنُّحَاسُ وَٱلْفِضَّةُ وَٱلذَّهَبُ مَعًا، وَصَارَتْ كَعُصَافَةِ ٱلْبَيْدَرِ فِي ٱلصَّيْفِ، فَحَمَلَتْهَا ٱلرِّيحُ فَلَمْ يُوجَدْ لَهَا مَكَانٌ. أَمَّا ٱلْحَجَرُ ٱلَّذِي ضَرَبَ ٱلتِّمْثَالَ فَصَارَ جَبَلًا كَبِيرًا وَمَلَأَ ٱلْأَرْضَ كُلَّهَا.

Then the iron, clay, bronze, silver, and gold were shattered and became like chaff on the threshing floor in summer. The wind carried them away, and not a trace of them could be found. But the stone that had struck the statue became a great mountain and filled the whole earth.

٣٦ 36 هَذَا هُوَ ٱلْحُلْمُ. فَنُخْبِرُ بِتَعْبِيرِهِ قُدَّامَ ٱلْمَلِكِ.

This was the dream; now we will tell the king its interpretation.

٣٧ 37 «أَنْتَ أَيُّهَا ٱلْمَلِكُ مَلِكُ مُلُوكٍ، لِأَنَّ إِلَهَ ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ أَعْطَاكَ مَمْلَكَةً وَٱقْتِدَارًا وَسُلْطَانًا وَفَخْرًا.

You, O king, are the king of kings, to whom the God of heaven has given sovereignty, power, strength, and glory.

٣٨ 38 وَحَيْثُمَا يَسْكُنُ بَنُو ٱلْبَشَرِ وَوُحُوشُ ٱلْبَرِّ وَطُيُورُ ٱلسَّمَاءِ دَفَعَهَا لِيَدِكَ وَسَلَّطَكَ عَلَيْهَا جَمِيعِهَا. فَأَنْتَ هَذَا ٱلرَّأْسُ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ.

Wherever the sons of men or beasts of the field or birds of the air dwell, He has given them into your hand and has made you ruler over them all. You are that head of gold.

٣٩ 39 وَبَعْدَكَ تَقُومُ مَمْلَكَةٌ أُخْرَى أَصْغَرُ مِنْكَ وَمَمْلَكَةٌ ثَالِثَةٌ أُخْرَى مِنْ نُحَاسٍ فَتَتَسَلَّطُ عَلَى كُلِّ ٱلْأَرْضِ.

But after you, there will arise another kingdom, inferior to yours. Next, a third kingdom, one of bronze, will rule the whole earth.

٤٠ 40 وَتَكُونُ مَمْلَكَةٌ رَابِعَةٌ صَلْبَةٌ كَٱلْحَدِيدِ، لِأَنَّ ٱلْحَدِيدَ يَدُقُّ وَيَسْحَقُ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ. وَكَالْحَدِيدِ ٱلَّذِي يُكَسِّرُ تَسْحَقُ وَتُكَسِّرُ كُلَّ هَؤُلَاءِ.

Finally, there will be a fourth kingdom as strong as iron; for iron shatters and crushes all things, and like iron that crushes all things, it will shatter and crush all the others.

٤١ 41 وَبِمَا رَأَيْتَ ٱلْقَدَمَيْنِ وَٱلْأَصَابِعَ بَعْضُهَا مِنْ خَزَفٍ وَٱلْبَعْضُ مِنْ حَدِيدٍ، فَٱلْمَمْلَكَةُ تَكُونُ مُنْقَسِمَةً، وَيَكُونُ فِيهَا قُوَّةُ ٱلْحَدِيدِ مِنْ حَيْثُ إِنَّكَ رَأَيْتَ ٱلْحَدِيدَ مُخْتَلِطًا بِخَزَفِ ٱلطِّينِ.

And just as you saw that the feet and toes were made partly of fired clay and partly of iron, so this will be a divided kingdom, yet some of the strength of iron will be in it—just as you saw the iron mixed with clay.

٤٢ 42 وَأَصَابِعُ ٱلْقَدَمَيْنِ بَعْضُهَا مِنْ حَدِيدٍ وَٱلْبَعْضُ مِنْ خَزَفٍ، فَبَعْضُ ٱلْمَمْلَكَةِ يَكُونُ قَوِيًّا وَٱلْبَعْضُ قَصِمًا.

And as the toes of the feet were partly iron and partly clay, so this kingdom will be partly strong and partly brittle.

٤٣ 43 وَبِمَا رَأَيْتَ ٱلْحَدِيدَ مُخْتَلِطًا بِخَزَفِ ٱلطِّينِ، فَإِنَّهُمْ يَخْتَلِطُونَ بِنَسْلِ ٱلنَّاسِ، وَلَكِنْ لَا يَتَلَاصَقُ هَذَا بِذَاكَ، كَمَا أَنَّ ٱلْحَدِيدَ لَا يَخْتَلِطُ بِٱلْخَزَفِ.

As you saw the iron mixed with clay, so the peoples will mix with one another, but will not hold together any more than iron mixes with clay.

٤٤ 44 وَفِي أَيَّامِ هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلْمُلُوكِ، يُقِيمُ إِلَهُ ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ مَمْلَكَةً لَنْ تَنْقَرِضَ أَبَدًا، وَمَلِكُهَا لَا يُتْرَكُ لِشَعْبٍ آخَرَ، وَتَسْحَقُ وَتُفْنِي كُلَّ هَذِهِ ٱلْمَمَالِكِ، وَهِيَ تَثْبُتُ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ.

In the days of those kings, the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that will never be destroyed, nor will it be left to another people. It will shatter all these kingdoms and bring them to an end, but will itself stand forever.

٤٥ 45 لِأَنَّكَ رَأَيْتَ أَنَّهُ قَدْ قُطِعَ حَجَرٌ مِنْ جَبَلٍ لَا بِيَدَيْنِ، فَسَحَقَ ٱلْحَدِيدَ وَٱلنُّحَاسَ وَٱلْخَزَفَ وَٱلْفِضَّةَ وَٱلذَّهَبَ. ٱللهُ ٱلْعَظِيمُ قَدْ عَرَّفَ ٱلْمَلِكَ مَا سَيَأْتِي بَعْدَ هَذَا. اَلْحُلْمُ حَقٌّ وَتَعْبِيرُهُ يَقِينٌ».

And just as you saw a stone being cut out of the mountain without human hands, and it shattered the iron, bronze, clay, silver, and gold, so the great God has told the king what will happen in the future. The dream is true, and its interpretation is trustworthy.”

٤٦ 46 حِينَئِذٍ خَرَّ نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرُ عَلَى وَجْهِهِ وَسَجَدَ لِدَانِيآلَ، وَأَمَرَ بِأَنْ يُقَدِّمُوا لَهُ تَقْدِمَةً وَرَوَائِحَ سُرُورٍ.

At this, King Nebuchadnezzar fell on his face, paid homage to Daniel, and ordered that an offering of incense be presented to him.

٤٧ 47 فَأَجَابَ ٱلْمَلِكُ دَانِيآلَ وَقَالَ: «حَقًّا إِنَّ إِلَهَكُمْ إِلَهُ ٱلْآلِهَةِ وَرَبُّ ٱلْمُلُوكِ وَكَاشِفُ ٱلْأَسْرَارِ، إِذِ ٱسْتَطَعْتَ عَلَى كَشْفِ هَذَا ٱلسِّرِّ».

The king said to Daniel, “Your God is truly the God of gods and Lord of kings, the Revealer of Mysteries, since you were able to reveal this mystery.”

٤٨ 48 حِينَئِذٍ عَظَّمَ ٱلْمَلِكُ دَانِيآلَ وَأَعْطَاهُ عَطَايَا كَثِيرَةً، وَسَلَّطَهُ عَلَى كُلِّ وِلَايَةِ بَابِلَ وَجَعَلَهُ رَئِيسَ ٱلشِّحَنِ عَلَى جَمِيعِ حُكَمَاءِ بَابِلَ.

Then the king promoted Daniel and gave him many generous gifts. He made him ruler over the entire province of Babylon and chief administrator over all the wise men of Babylon.

٤٩ 49 فَطَلَبَ دَانِيآلُ مِنَ ٱلْمَلِكِ، فَوَلَّى شَدْرَخَ وَمِيشَخَ وَعَبْدَنَغُوَ عَلَى أَعْمَالِ وِلَايَةِ بَابِلَ. أَمَّا دَانِيآلُ فَكَانَ فِي بَابِ ٱلْمَلِكِ.

And at Daniel’s request, the king appointed Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego to manage the province of Babylon, while Daniel remained in the king’s court.
