Daniel 2:21-23
1599 Geneva Bible
21 And he changeth the times and seasons: he taketh away kings: he setteth up kings: he giveth wisdom unto the wise, and understanding to those that understand.
22 He discovereth the deep and secret things: he knoweth what is in darkness, and the [a]light dwelleth with him.
23 I thank thee and praise thee, O thou God of my [b]fathers, that thou hast given me wisdom and [c]strength, and hast showed me now the thing that we desired of thee: for thou hast declared unto us the king’s matter.
