Daniel 2:1-3

New International Reader's Version

Nebuchadnezzar Dreams About a Large Statue

2 In the second year of Nebuchadnezzar’s rule, he had a dream. His mind was troubled. He couldn’t sleep. ² So the king sent for those who claimed to get knowledge by using magic. He also sent for those who practiced evil magic and those who studied the heavens. He wanted them to tell him what he had dreamed. They came in and stood in front of the king. ³ He said to them, “I had a dream. It troubles me. So I want to know what it means.”
