²⁸ But there is a God in heaven who ·explains [reveals] ·secret things [mysteries], and he has ·shown [made known to] King Nebuchadnezzar what will happen ·at a later time [in the future; ^Lin the latter days]. This is your dream, the vision ·you saw [^Lof your head] while lying on your bed: ²⁹ O king, as you were lying ·there [^Lon your bed], you thought about things to come. God, who can ·tell people about [^Lreveal] ·secret things [mysteries], ·showed [made known to] you what is going to happen. ³⁰ God also ·told [revealed] this ·secret [mystery] to me, not because I have greater wisdom than any other living person, but so that you may know ·what it means [its interpretation]. In that way you will understand ·what went through your mind [^Lthe thoughts of your heart/mind].
