Light from God’s Word

¹⁹ Then, in a vision by night, the mystery was revealed to Daniel! Daniel praised the God of heaven: ²⁰ God’s name be praised from age to eternal age! Wisdom and might are his! ²¹ God is the one who changes times and eras, who dethrones one king, only to establish another, who grants wisdom to the wise and knowledge to those with insight. ²² God is the one who uncovers what lies deeply hidden; he knows what hides in darkness; light lives with him! ²³ I acknowledge and praise you, my fathers’ God! You’ve given me wisdom and might, and now you’ve made known to me what we asked of you: you’ve made known to us the king’s demand.
