²⁴ Then Daniel went to Arioch, the man King Nebuchadnezzar had ·chosen [assigned; delegated] to ·kill [put to death; destroy] the wise men of Babylon. Daniel said to him, “Don’t ·put the wise men of Babylon to death [kill/destroy the wise men of Babylon]. Take me to the king, and I will ·tell him what his dream means [^Lgive him its interpretation].”

²⁵ Very quickly Arioch took Daniel to the king and said, “I have found a man among the ·captives [^Lsons of the exiles] from Judah who can tell the king ·what his dream means [its interpretation].”
