Daniel 5:15-17
Legacy Standard Bible
15 Just now the (A)wise men and the conjurers were brought in before me that they might read this writing and make its interpretation known to me, but they (B)could not declare the interpretation of the [a]message. 16 But I personally have heard about you, that you are able to give interpretations and [b]solve difficult problems. Now if you are able to read the writing and make its (C)interpretation known to me, you will be (D)clothed with purple and wear a necklace of gold around your neck, and you will rule with power as the [c]third ruler in the kingdom.”
17 Then Daniel answered and said before the king, “Let your (E)gifts remain with you or give your rewards to someone else; however, I will read the writing to the king and make the interpretation known to him.
