Daniel 2:29-31

Contemporary English Version

^28-29 But the God who rules from heaven can explain mysteries. And while you were sleeping, he showed you what will happen in the future. ³⁰ However, you must realize that these mysteries weren't explained to me because I am smarter than everyone else. Instead, it was done so that you would understand what you have seen.

³¹ Your Majesty, what you saw standing in front of you was a huge and terrifying statue, shining brightly.
