Daniel 2:2-4
New Catholic Bible
2 Therefore, the king commanded that the magicians, the sorcerers, and the Chaldeans[a] were to be summoned to interpret his dream. When they arrived and stood in his presence, 3 he said to them, “I have had a dream, and my mind is troubled because I have been unable to interpret it.” 4 The Chaldeans replied to the king in Aramaic,[b] “May you live forever, O king. Relate your dream to us, your servants, and we will reveal its meaning to you.”
