Daniel 4:9

"Belteshazzar, you who are the greatest (highest-ranking, leader) among the diviners, I know that the spirit of the holy gods dwells in you and that no secret is too difficult for you. Tell me what I saw in my dream and what it means!"
[It has been over 20 years since Daniel interpreted the king's first dream in which he saw a statue, see chapter 2. The young Daniel was then given a high position, see Dan. 2:48, which he still holds, demonstrating his faithfulness.]
