王大聲高呼，要人把占卜者、迦勒底人和算命者帶來。王開口對巴比倫的智慧人說：「任何人讀出這文字，並把它的釋義講明給我，他就必身穿紫袍，項戴金鏈，在國中掌權，位居第三。」

他大声传令，召来巫师、占星家和占卜者，对这些巴比伦的智者说：“谁能读墙上的字，把意思告诉我，他必身穿紫袍，颈戴金链，在国中位居第三。”

王大声呼叫，吩咐人把那些用法术的和迦勒底人，以及占星家都领进来；王对巴比伦的智慧人说：“谁能读这文字，又能向我解释它的意思，他必身穿紫袍，颈戴金链，在国中掌权，位列第三。”

王大声高呼，要人把占卜者、迦勒底人和算命者带来。王开口对巴比伦的智慧人说：“任何人读出这文字，并把它的释义讲明给我，他就必身穿紫袍，项戴金链，在国中掌权，位居第三。”

王使勁地喊着，吩咐人將那些用法術的、那些迦勒底博學的人、和占卜的、領進來。王應時對巴比倫的博士說：『甚麼人能讀這文字，把它的解析向我講明白的、他就可以穿紫紅色袍，脖子上帶金鍊，在國中掌權、居第三位。』

The king summoned the enchanters, astrologers and diviners. Then he said to these wise men of Babylon,“ Whoever reads this writing and tells me what it means will be clothed in purple and have a gold chain placed around his neck, and he will be made the third highest ruler in the kingdom.”

The king sent for those who try to figure things out by using magic. He also sent for those who study the heavens. All of them were wise men in Babylon. Then the king spoke to them. He said,“ I want one of you to read this writing. I want you to tell me what it means. Whoever does this will be dressed in purple clothes. A gold chain will be put around his neck. And he will be made the third highest ruler in the kingdom.”

The king called loudly to bring in the enchanters, the Chaldeans, and the astrologers. The king declared to the wise men of Babylon,“ Whoever reads this writing, and shows me its interpretation, shall be clothed with purple and have a chain of gold around his neck and shall be the third ruler in the kingdom.”

The king shouted for the enchanters, astrologers, and fortune tellers to be brought before him. He said to these wise men of Babylon,“ Whoever can read this writing and tell me what it means will be dressed in purple robes of royal honor and will have a gold chain placed around his neck. He will become the third highest ruler in the kingdom!”

The king shouted to bring in the mediums, Chaldeans, and diviners. He said to these wise men of Babylon,“ Whoever reads this inscription and gives me its interpretation will be clothed in purple, have a gold chain around his neck, and have the third highest position in the kingdom.”

The king called aloud to bring in the sorcerers, the Chaldeans, and the diviners. The king began speaking and said to the wise men of Babylon,“ Anyone who can read this inscription and explain its interpretation to me shall be clothed with purple and have a necklace of gold around his neck, and have authority as third ruler in the kingdom.”

The king cried aloud to bring in the astrologers, the Chaldeans, and the soothsayers. The king spoke, saying to the wise men of Babylon,“ Whoever reads this writing, and tells me its interpretation, shall be clothed with purple and have a chain of gold around his neck; and he shall be the third ruler in the kingdom.”

The king cried aloud to bring in the enchanters, the Chaldeans, and the soothsayers. The king spake and said to the wise men of Babylon, Whosoever shall read this writing, and show me the interpretation thereof, shall be clothed with purple, and have a chain of gold about his neck, and shall be the third ruler in the kingdom.

The king called out to bring in the mediums, Chaldeans, and astrologers. He said to these wise men of Babylon,“ Whoever reads this inscription and gives me its interpretation will be clothed in purple, have a gold chain around his neck, and have the third highest position in the kingdom.”

The king cried aloud to bring in the astrologers, the Chaldeans, and the soothsayers.[ And] the king spake, and said to the wise[ men] of Babylon, Whosoever shall read this writing, and shew me the interpretation thereof, shall be clothed with scarlet, and[ have] a chain of gold about his neck, and shall be the third ruler in the kingdom.

The king called out loudly to summon the astrologers, wise men, and diviners. The king proclaimed to the wise men of Babylon that anyone who could read this inscription and disclose its interpretation would be clothed in purple and have a golden collar placed on his neck and be third ruler in the kingdom.

The king cried aloud to bring in the enchanters, the Chaldeans, and the soothsayers. The king spoke and said to the wise men of Babylon,“ Whoever reads this writing, and shows me its interpretation, shall be clothed with purple, and have a chain of gold about his neck, and shall be the third ruler in the kingdom.”

伯沙撒下令，人就給但以理穿上紫袍，把金鏈戴在他的頸項上，並宣布他是國中位居第三的掌權者。

而我聽說過你能講解釋義，解答難題。現在如果你能讀出這文字，並把它的釋義顯明給我，你就必身穿紫袍，項戴金鏈，在國中掌權，位居第三。」

又在他們之上任命三位總督察，但以理是其中之一；這些行政官要向他們三位負責交代，好使王不受損失。這但以理在總督察和行政官中出類拔萃，因為在他裡面有超卓的靈性；王就打算任命他治理全國。

王就提拔了但以理，賜給他許多貴重的禮物，使他統轄巴比倫全省，並且立他為總長之首管理巴比倫的所有智慧人。

但如果你們講明這夢和夢的釋義，你們就必從我得到禮物、賞賜和極大的尊榮；因此你們要把這夢和夢的釋義講明給我！」

你因謀劃過多而筋疲力盡；現在就讓那些劃分天象、觀看星辰、在新月時說預言的都站出來吧，拯救你脫離那些將要臨到你的事！

然後法老從自己手上取下印戒，戴在約瑟手上，給他穿上細麻衣，把金鏈戴在他的脖子上；又讓約瑟乘自己的副車，喝道的在約瑟前面向人呼喊：「跪下！」這樣，法老委派他管理埃及全地。法老對約瑟說：「我是法老，但在埃及全地，沒有你的許可，誰也不能擅自行事。」

於是王吩咐人召來術士、占卜者、行巫術的和迦勒底人，要他們把王的夢告訴王。他們就來了，站在王面前。

以色列人中有人說：「你們看見上來的這人嗎？他上來是為了羞辱以色列的。有誰能擊殺這人，王必賞賜他極大的財富，並且會把女兒賜給他，還會使他的父家在以色列免除賦稅。」

因此我發出命令，要把巴比倫的所有智慧人帶到我面前，好讓他們把夢的釋義顯明給我。於是術士、占卜者、迦勒底人和算命者都來了；我就向他們說了這夢，他們卻不能把這夢的釋義顯明給我。

他的一切權柄和大能的成就，以及末迪凱被王高抬尊為大的完整記錄，不是都被記在《米底亞和波斯列王編年史》上嗎？猶太人末迪凱的地位僅次於亞哈隨魯王，在猶太人中顯為尊貴，得到他眾多同胞的喜悅；他一直為自己的民族尋求福份，為自己的族裔呼求平安。

因為這些是你頭上恩惠的花冠，是你頸上的項鏈。

到了早晨，法老靈裡煩亂，就派人召來了埃及所有的術士和智慧人。法老向他們講述了他的夢，但沒有人能為法老解夢。

他大聲高呼，這樣說：『你們當砍倒這樹，砍掉它的枝子，打落它的葉子，拋散它的果實；使走獸從樹下逃離，使飛鳥從樹枝逃離！

我破壞假先知的預兆，使占卜者顯為愚妄；我顛覆了智慧人，使他們的知識變為愚拙；是我實現我僕人的話語，成就我使者們的籌算；我論耶路撒冷說：『必有人居住』，又論猶大各城說：『必被重建，我必使它們從廢墟中興起』；

這些事以後，亞哈隨魯王高抬亞甲人哈米達塔的兒子哈曼；王提拔他，使他的地位高過所有與他一起的首領。
