“ We both had dreams,” they answered.“ But no one can tell us what they mean.” Then Joseph said to them,“ Only God knows what dreams mean. Tell me your dreams.”

他们对他说：“我们各人做了一梦，没有人能解。”约瑟说：“解梦不是出于神吗？请你们将梦告诉我。”

他们对他说：“我们各自做了一个梦，却没有人能讲解。”约瑟对他们说：“解梦不是出于上帝吗？请你们把梦告诉我。”

他们对他说：“我们各自做了一个梦，却没有人能讲解。”约瑟对他们说：“解梦不是出于神吗？请你们把梦告诉我。”

他们回答说：“我们都做了梦，可是没有人给我们解梦。”约瑟说：“解梦的能力不是来自上帝吗？请你们把梦告诉我。”

他们回答他：“我们各人作了一个梦，但没有人能够解释。”约瑟对他们说：“解梦不是出于神吗？请把梦告诉我吧。”

他们对他说：“我们各做了一梦，但无人能解。”约瑟就对他们说：“解梦难道不在于神吗？请给我讲述一下吧。”

他們對他說：「我們各人做了一夢，沒有人能解。」約瑟說：「解夢不是出於神嗎？請你們將夢告訴我。」

他們對他說：「我們各自做了一個夢，卻沒有人能講解。」約瑟對他們說：「解夢不是出於上帝嗎？請你們把夢告訴我。」

他對他們說：『我們各作了一個夢，沒有人能解釋。』約瑟對他們說：『解夢不是在於上帝麼？請向我敘說。』

他們對他說：「我們各做了一夢，但無人能解。」約瑟就對他們說：「解夢難道不在於神嗎？請給我講述一下吧。」

“ We both had dreams,” they answered,“ but there is no one to interpret them.” Then Joseph said to them,“ Do not interpretations belong to God? Tell me your dreams.”

They said to him,“ We have had dreams, and there is no one to interpret them.” And Joseph said to them,“ Do not interpretations belong to God? Please tell them to me.”

And they replied,“ We both had dreams last night, but no one can tell us what they mean.”“ Interpreting dreams is God’s business,” Joseph replied.“ Go ahead and tell me your dreams.”

“ We had dreams,” they said to him,“ but there is no one to interpret them.” Then Joseph said to them,“ Don’t interpretations belong to God? Tell me your dreams.”

And they said to him,“ We have had a dream, and there is no one to interpret it.” Then Joseph said to them,“ Do interpretations not belong to God? Tell it to me, please.”

And they said to him,“ We each have had a dream, and there is no interpreter of it.” So Joseph said to them,“ Do not interpretations belong to God? Tell them to me, please.”

And they said unto him, We have dreamed a dream, and there is none that can interpret it. And Joseph said unto them, Do not interpretations belong to God? tell it me, I pray you.

“ We had dreams,” they said to him,“ but there is no one to interpret them.” Then Joseph said to them,“ Don’t interpretations belong to God? Tell me your dreams.”

And they said unto him, We have dreamed a dream, and[ there is] no interpreter of it. And Joseph said unto them,[ Do] not interpretations[ belong] to God? tell me[ them], I pray you.

They told him,“ We both had dreams, but there is no one to interpret them.” Joseph responded,“ Don’t interpretations belong to God? Tell them to me.”

They said to him,“ We have dreamed a dream, and there is no one who can interpret it.” Joseph said to them,“ Don’t interpretations belong to God? Please tell it to me.”

Pharaoh said to Joseph,“ I had a dream. No one can tell me what it means. But I’ve heard that when you hear a dream you can explain it.”“ I can’t do it,” Joseph replied to Pharaoh.“ But God will give Pharaoh the answer he wants.”

The king said to Daniel,“ I’m sure your God is the greatest God of all. He is the Lord of kings. He explains mysteries. That’s why you were able to explain the mystery of my dream.”

But there is a God in heaven who can explain mysteries. King Nebuchadnezzar, he has shown you what is going to happen. Here is what you dreamed while lying in bed. And here are the visions that passed through your mind.

To others he gives the power to do miracles. To others he gives the ability to prophesy. To others he gives the ability to tell the spirits apart. To others he gives the ability to speak in different kinds of languages they had not known before. And to still others he gives the ability to explain what was said in those languages.All the gifts are produced by one and the same Spirit. He gives gifts to each person, just as he decides.

The Lord and King never does anything without telling his servants the prophets about it.

The Lord shares his plans with those who have respect for him. He makes his covenant known to them.

Finally, Daniel came to me. He is called Belteshazzar, after the name of my god. The spirit of the holy gods is in him. I told him my dream.

I know a man in your kingdom who has the spirit of the holy gods in him. He has understanding and wisdom and good sense just like the gods. He was chief of those who tried to figure things out by using magic. And he was in charge of those who studied the heavens. Your father, King Nebuchadnezzar, appointed him to that position.King Nebuchadnezzar did this because he saw what the man could do. This man’s name is Daniel. Your father called him Belteshazzar. He has a clever mind and knowledge and understanding. He is also able to tell what dreams mean. He can explain riddles and solve hard problems. Send for him. He’ll tell you what the writing means.”So Daniel was brought to the king. The king said to him,“ Are you Daniel? Are you one of the prisoners my father the king brought here from Judah?I have heard that the spirit of the gods is in you. I’ve also heard that you have understanding and good sense and special wisdom.The wise men and those who practice magic were brought to me. They were asked to read this writing and tell me what it means. But they couldn’t.

What you are asking is much too hard. No one can tell you what you dreamed except the gods. And they don’t live among human beings.”

He might speak in a dream or in a vision at night. That’s when people are sound asleep in their beds.He might speak in their ears. His warnings might terrify them.

There are people who get messages from those who have died. But these people only whisper words that are barely heard. Suppose someone tells you to ask for advice from these people. Shouldn’t you ask for advice from your God instead? Why should you get advice from dead people to help those who are alive?
