18. to seek compassion from the Elah of the heavens concerning this secret, so that Dani’ĕl and his companions should not perish with the rest of the wise ones of Baḇel.

19. Then the secret was revealed to Dani’ĕl in a night vision, and Dani’ĕl blessed the Elah of the heavens.

20. Dani’ĕl responded and said, “Blessed be the Name of Elah forever and ever, for wisdom and might are His.
