Daniel 2:11-13

Expanded Bible

¹¹ the king is asking something that is too hard. Only the gods could tell the king this, but ·the gods do not live among people [^Ltheir home/dwelling is not with flesh].”

¹² When the king heard their answer, he became very angry. He ordered that all the wise men of Babylon be killed. ¹³ So King Nebuchadnezzar’s ·order [decree; edict] to kill the wise men was announced, and men ·were sent to look [searched] for Daniel and his friends to kill them [^Csince they were also wise men].
