1. King Nebuchadnezzar, to all the peoples, nations, and languages that dwell in all the earth; Peace be multiplied unto you.
2. The signs and wonders that the high God has wrought with me are such that I must publish them.
3. How great are his signs! and how mighty are his wonders! His kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and his dominion is from generation to generation.
4. I Nebuchadnezzar was quiet in my house and flourishing in my palace;
5. I saw a dream which made me afraid, and the imaginations and visions of my head troubled me in my bed.
6. Therefore I made a decree to bring in all the wise men of Babylon before me that they might show me the interpretation of the dream.
