Nebuchadnezzar’s Troubling Dream

11What the king requests is so difficult that no one can tell it to him except the gods, whose dwelling is not with mortals.”12This response made the king so furious with anger that he gave orders to destroy all the wise men of Babylon.13So the decree went out that the wise men were to be executed, and men went to look for Daniel and his friends to execute them.
