´Ü 2:1 In the second year of his reign, Nebuchadnezzar had dreams;
his mind was troubled and he could not sleep.
´Ü 2:2 So the king summoned the magicians, enchanters, sorcerers and
astrologers to tell him what he had dreamed. When they came in and stood
before the king,
´Ü 2:3 he said to them, "I have had a dream that troubles me and I
want to know what it means."
´Ü2:4 ¼ú»çµéÀÇ ²Þ ÇØ¼®
´Ü 2:4 Then the astrologers answered the king in Aramaic, "O king,
live forever! Tell your servants the dream, and we will interpret it."
´Ü 2:5 The king replied to the astrologers, "This is what I have firmly
decided: If you do not tell me what my dre am was and interpret it, I will
have you cut into pieces and your houses turned into piles of rubble.
´Ü 2:6 But if you tell me the dream and explain it, you will receive
from me gifts and rewards and great honor. So tell me the dream and interpret
it for me."
´Ü 2:7 Once more they replied, "Let the king tell his servants the
dream, and we will interpret it."
´Ü 2:8 Then the king answered, "I am certain that you are trying to
gain time, because you realize that this is wh at I have firmly decided:
´Ü 2:9 If you do not tell me the dream, there is just one penalty for
you. You have conspired to tell me misleading and wicked things, hoping
the situation will change. So then, tell me the dream, and I will know
that you can interpret it for me."
´Ü 2:10 The astrologers answered the king, "There is not a man on earth
who can do what the king asks! No king, ho wever great and mighty, has
ever asked such a thing of any magician or enchanter or astrologer.
´Ü 2:11 What the king asks is too difficult. No one can reveal it to
the king except the gods, and they do not live amo ng men."
´Ü 2:12 This made the king so angry and furious that he ordered the
execution of all the wise men of Babylon.
´Ü 2:13 So the decree was issued to put the wise men to death, and
men were sent to look for Daniel and his friends to put them to death.
´Ü 2:14 When Arioch, the commander of the king's guard, had gone out
to put to death the wise men of Babylon, Daniel sp oke to him with wisdom
and tact.
´Ü 2:15 He asked the king's officer, "Why did the king issue such a
harsh decree?" Arioch then explained the matter to Daniel.
´Ü 2:16 At this, Daniel went in to the king and asked for time, so
that he might interpret the dream for him.
´Ü2:17 Çϳª´Ô²²¼ ²ÞÀ» °¡¸£ÃÄÁÖ½É
´Ü 2:17 Then Daniel returned to his house and explained the matter
to his friends Hananiah, Mishael and Azariah.
´Ü 2:18 He urged them to plead for mercy from the God of heaven concerning
this mystery, so that he and his friends mig ht not be executed with the
rest of the wise men of Babylon.
´Ü 2:19 During the night the mystery was revealed to Daniel in a vision.
Then Daniel praised the God of heaven
´Ü 2:20 and said: "Praise be to the name of God for ever and ever;
wisdom and power are his.
´Ü 2:21 He changes times and seasons; he sets up kings and deposes
them. He gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to t he discerning.
´Ü 2:22 He reveals deep and hidden things; he knows what lies in darkness,
and light dwells with him.
´Ü 2:23 I thank and praise you, O God of my fathers: You have given
me wisdom and power, you have made known to me what we asked of you, you
have made known to us the dream of the king."
´Ü 2:24 Then Daniel went to Arioch, whom the king had appointed to
execute the wise men of Babylon, and said to him, "Do not execute the wise
men of Babylon. Take me to the king, and I will interpret his dream for
him."
´Ü2:25 Çϳª´ÔÀ» ÀÎÁ¤ÇÏ´Â ´Ù´Ï¿¤
´Ü 2:25 Arioch took Daniel to the king at once and said, "I have found
a man among the exiles from Judah who can t ell the king what his dream
means."
´Ü 2:26 The king asked Daniel (also called Belteshazzar), "Are you
able to tell me what I saw in my dream and inte rpret it?"
´Ü 2:27 Daniel replied, "No wise man, enchanter, magician or diviner
can explain to the king the mystery he has as ked about,
´Ü 2:28 but there is a God in heaven who reveals mysteries. He has
shown King Nebuchadnezzar what will happen in days t o come. Your dream
and the visions that passed through your mind as you lay on your bed are
these:
´Ü 2:29 "As you were lying there, O king, your mind turned to things
to come, and the revealer of mysteries showed you what is going to happen.
´Ü 2:30 As for me, this mystery has been revealed to me, not because
I have greater wisdom than other living men, but s o that you, O king,
may know the interpretation and that you may understand what went through
your mind.
´Ü2:31 ´ÀºÎ°«³×»ìÀÇ ²Þ
´Ü 2:31 "You looked, O king, and there before you stood a large statue--an
enormous, dazzling statue, awesome in a ppearance.
´Ü 2:32 The head of the statue was made of pure gold, its chest and
arms of silver, its belly and thighs of bronze,
´Ü 2:33 its legs of iron, its feet partly of iron and partly of baked
clay.
´Ü 2:34 While you were watching, a rock was cut out, but not by human
hands. It struck the statue on its feet of iron a nd clay and smashed them.
´Ü 2:35 Then the iron, the clay, the bronze, the silver and the gold
were broken to pieces at the same time and became like chaff on a threshing
floor in the summer. The wind swept them away without leaving a trace.
But the rock that struc k the statue became a huge mountain and filled
the whole earth.
´Ü2:36 ²ÞÀ» ÇØ¼®ÇÏ´Â ´Ù´Ï¿¤
´Ü 2:36 "This was the dream, and now we will interpret it to the king.
´Ü 2:37 You, O king, are the king of kings. The God of heaven has given
you dominion and power and might and glory;
´Ü 2:38 in your hands he has placed mankind and the beasts of the field
and the birds of the air. Wherever they live, h e has made you ruler over
them all. You are that head of gold.
´Ü 2:39 "After you, another kingdom will rise, inferior to yours. Next,
a third kingdom, one of bronze, will rule over the whole earth.
´Ü 2:40 Finally, there will be a fourth kingdom, strong as iron--for
iron breaks and smashes everything--and as iron br eaks things to pieces,
so it will crush and break all the others.
´Ü 2:41 Just as you saw that the feet and toes were partly of baked
clay and partly of iron, so this will be a divided kingdom; yet it will
have some of the strength of iron in it, even as you saw iron mixed with
clay.
´Ü 2:42 As the toes were partly iron and partly clay, so this kingdom
will be partly strong and partly brittle.
´Ü 2:43 And just as you saw the iron mixed with baked clay, so the
people will be a mixture and will not remain united, any more than iron
mixes with clay.
´Ü 2:44 "In the time of those kings, the God of heaven will set up
a kingdom that will never be destroyed, nor wil l it be left to another
people. It will crush all those kingdoms and bring them to an end, but
it will itself endure for ever.
´Ü 2:45 This is the meaning of the vision of the rock cut out of a
mountain, but not by human hands--a rock that broke the iron, the bronze,
the clay, the silver and the gold to pieces. "The great God has shown the
king what will take place in the future. The dream is true and the interpretation
is trustworthy."
´Ü2:46 Á¸±ÍÇÏ°Ô µÈ ´Ù´Ï¿¤
´Ü 2:46 Then King Nebuchadnezzar fell prostrate before Daniel and paid
him honor and ordered that an offering and incen se be presented to him.
´Ü 2:47 The king said to Daniel, "Surely your God is the God of gods
and the Lord of kings and a revealer of myste ries, for you were able to
reveal this mystery."
´Ü 2:48 Then the king placed Daniel in a high position and lavished
many gifts on him. He made him ruler over the entir e province of Babylon
and placed him in charge of all its wise men.
´Ü 2:49 Moreover, at Daniel's request the king appointed Shadrach,
Meshach and Abednego administrators over the provinc e of Babylon, while
Daniel himself remained at the royal court. |
