Daniel 5:16-18
New King James Version
16 And I have heard of you, that you can give interpretations and [a]explain enigmas. (A)Now if you can read the writing and make known to me its interpretation, you shall be clothed with purple and have a chain of gold around your neck, and shall be the third ruler in the kingdom.”
17 Then Daniel answered, and said before the king, “Let your gifts be for yourself, and give your rewards to another; yet I will read the writing to the king, and make known to him the interpretation. 18 O king, (B)the Most High God gave Nebuchadnezzar your [b]father a kingdom and majesty, glory and honor.
