Daniel 2:7-9
Lexham English Bible
7 They answered once more and said, “Let the king tell the dream to his servants and we will make the explanation known.” 8 The king answered and said, “Certainly[a] I know that you are trying to gain time[b] because[c] you have seen that this matter is firmly decreed by me,[d] 9 for if you do not make the dream known to me, your verdict is fixed,[e] and you have conspired to say a lying and deceitful word to me until the circumstances[f] will change. Therefore, tell me the dream, and I will know that you can tell me its explanation.”
