17. And he went into his house, and told the matter to Ananias, and Misael, and Azarias his companions:
18. To the end that they should ask mercy at the face of the God of heaven concerning this secret, and that Daniel and his companions might not perish with the rest of the wise men of Babylon.
19. Then was the mystery revealed to Daniel by a vision in the night: and Daniel blessed the God of heaven,
20. And speaking he said: Blessed be the name of the Lord from eternity and for evermore: for wisdom and fortitude are his.
