2 So the king said to call the magic-practicing priests+ and the conjurers and the sorcerers and the Chal·deʹans to tell the king his dreams.+ And they proceeded to come in and to stand before the king.

7 “At that time the magic-practicing priests, the conjurers, the Chal·deʹans+ and the astrologers+ were entering; and I was saying before them what the dream was, but its interpretation they were not making known to me.+

8 At that time all the wise men of the king were coming in, but they were not competent enough to read the writing itself or to make known to the king the interpretation.+
