8 At last Daniel came in before me—^rhe who was named Belteshazzar after the name of my god, and ^sin whom is the spirit of the holy gods¹—and I told him the dream, saying,

9 “O Belteshazzar, ^tchief of the magicians, because I know that ^uthe spirit of the holy gods is in you and that no mystery is too difficult for you, tell me the visions of my dream that I saw and their interpretation.

18 This dream I, King Nebuchadnezzar, saw. And you, O Belteshazzar, tell me the interpretation, because all the wise men of my kingdom are not able to make known to me the interpretation, but you are able, for the spirit of the holy gods is in you.”

14 I have heard of you that the spirit of the gods¹ is in you, and that light and understanding and excellent wisdom are found in you.
