ruler The Chaldeans answered before the king, and said, There is not a man upon the earth that can show the king's matter: therefore [there is] no king, lord, nor {ruler}, [that] asked such things at any magician, or astrologer, or Chaldean. ruler And wheresoever the children of men dwell, the beasts of the field and the fowls of the heaven hath he given into thine hand, and hath made thee {ruler} over them all. Thou [art] this head of gold. ruler Then the king made Daniel a great man, and gave him many great gifts, and made him {ruler} over the whole province of Babylon, and chief of the governors over all the wise [men] of Babylon. ruler The king cried aloud to bring in the astrologers, the Chaldeans, and the soothsayers. [And] the king spake, and said to the wise [men] of Babylon, Whosoever shall read this writing, and show me the interpretation thereof, shall be clothed with scarlet, and [have] a chain of gold about his neck, and shall be the third {ruler} in the kingdom. ruler And I have heard of thee, that thou canst make interpretations, and dissolve doubts: now if thou canst read the writing, and make known to me the interpretation thereof, thou shalt be clothed with scarlet, and [have] a chain of gold about thy neck, and shalt be the third {ruler} in the kingdom. ruler Then commanded Belshazzar, and they clothed Daniel with scarlet, and [put] a chain of gold about his neck, and made a proclamation concerning him, that he should be the third {ruler} in the kingdom. ~~~~~~
