1 Jehoiakim's captivity. 3 By the king of Babylon's order the master of the eunuchs taketh Daniel, Hananiel, Mishael, and Azariah, to instruct them, and changeth their names: 8 they refusing to eat of the king's meat thrive upon pulse and water: 17 their proficiency in wisdom.
1 Nebuchadnezzar forgetting his dream requireth of the Chaldeans by threats and promises to make it known to him. 10 They acknowledge their inability; all the wise men are sentenced to die. 14 Daniel obtaineth some respite; the dream is revealed to him; he blesseth God: 24 he stayeth the decree, and is brought to the king. 31 The dream, and the interpretation. 46 The honours paid to Daniel; his own and his friends' advancement.
1 Nebuchadnezzar setting up an image commandeth all persons to worship it. 8 Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, are accused of disobeying the command. 13 The king threateneth them; their resolute answer. 19 They are cast into the fiery furnace. 24 God delivereth them unhurt out of it, which Nebuchadnezzar seeing blesseth God, and acknowledgeth his power. 30 Their advancement.
1 Nebuchadnezzar acknowledgeth God's eternal dominion: 4 he relateth a dream which the magicians could not interpret: 8 Daniel hearing the dream, 19 interpreteth it. 28 The dream fulfilled in Nebuchadnezzar's loss of dignity and reason for a time; which being restored to him, he glorifieth God.
1 Belshazzar's impious feast. 5 The handwriting on the wall, which the magicians could not explain, troubleth him: 10 at the recommendation of the queen Daniel is brought in: 17 he reproveth the king of pride, profaneness, and idolatry: 25 he readeth and interpreteth the writing. 30 Belshazzar slain; the kingdom translated to the Medes.
1 Daniel is made chief of the presidents and princes of the realm: 4 they conspire against him, and obtain an ensnaring decree: 10 Daniel, accused of the breach thereof, against the king's will is cast into the lions' den: 18 the king findeth him miraculously saved: 24 his adversaries are cast in and devoured. 25 Darius by a decree magnifieth God.
1 Daniel's vision of the four beasts, 9 and of God's kingdom. 15 The interpretation thereof.
1 Daniel's vision of the ram and he goat. 13 The days of suspension of the daily sacrifice, and desolation of the sanctuary. 15 Gabriel comforteth Daniel, and interpreteth the vision.
1 Daniel, considering the time of the captivity, 3 maketh confession of his people's sins, 16 and prayeth for the restoration of Jerusalem. 20 Gabriel informeth him of the seventy weeks, and of the time and death of the Messiah, and of the succeeding troubles.
1 Daniel, having humbled himself, seeth a glorious vision, and is troubled with fear: 10 an angel comforteth him, and telling him of the opposition of the prince of Persia, the assistance he had from Michael, and the coming in of the prince of Grecia, promiseth him further information.
1 The overthrow of Persia by the king of Grecia, whose empire shall be divided. 5 Leagues and conflicts between the kings of the south and of the north. 21 The exploits of one of the latter princes, 30 who, being checked in his progress by the ships of Chittim, shall turn his fury against the holy land. 36 An impious tyranny set up. 40 Events that shall take place in the latter times.
1 Michael shall deliver Israel out of trouble: the general resurrection and recompence of the just and unjust. 5 Daniel heareth the times, but understandeth not: he is bid to wait the end, which shall be in his favour.
