Daniel 5:10-12
Tree of Life Version
10 The queen hearing the words of the king and his nobles entered the banquet hall. The queen spoke out and said, “May the king live forever! Do not let your thoughts frighten you, or your face be so pale! 11 There is a man in your kingdom who has the spirit of the holy gods in him. In the days of your father, he was found to have insight and intelligence, and wisdom like the wisdom of the gods. So King Nebuchadnezzar your father made him chief of the magicians, astrologers, Chaldeans and diviners. 12 This man Daniel, whom the king named Belteshazzar, was found to have extraordinary spirit, knowledge and insight for interpreting dreams, explaining riddles, and solving problems. Now, let Daniel be summoned and he will explain the interpretation.”

New International Version
10 The queen,[a] hearing the voices of the king and his nobles, came into the banquet hall. “May the king live forever!”(A) she said. “Don’t be alarmed! Don’t look so pale! 11 There is a man in your kingdom who has the spirit of the holy gods(B) in him. In the time of your father he was found to have insight and intelligence and wisdom(C) like that of the gods.(D) Your father, King Nebuchadnezzar, appointed him chief of the magicians, enchanters, astrologers and diviners.(E) 12 He did this because Daniel, whom the king called Belteshazzar,(F) was found to have a keen mind and knowledge and understanding, and also the ability to interpret dreams, explain riddles(G) and solve difficult problems.(H) Call for Daniel, and he will tell you what the writing means.(I)”
