^5 (A)He sought God in the days of Zechariah, who ^(B)had understanding in the ^[a]visions of God; and as long as he sought the Lord, God made him ^(C)prosper.

^11 (A)There is a man in your kingdom in whom is the Spirit of the Holy God. And in the days of your ^[a]father, light and understanding and wisdom, like the wisdom of the gods, were found in him; and King Nebuchadnezzar your ^[b]father—your father the king—made him chief of the magicians, astrologers, Chaldeans, and soothsayers.

¹² Inasmuch as an excellent spirit, knowledge, understanding, interpreting dreams, solving riddles, and ^[a]explaining enigmas were found in this Daniel, ^(A)whom the king named Belteshazzar, now let Daniel be called, and he will give the interpretation.”

¹⁴ I have heard of you, that ^(A)the ^[a]Spirit of God is in you, and that light and understanding and excellent wisdom are found in you.
