17 As for these four young men, 1 Kin. 3:12, 28; 2 Chr. 1:10–12; (Luke 21:15; James 1:5–7)God gave them Acts 7:22knowledge and skill in all literature and wisdom; and Daniel had Num. 12:6; 2 Chr. 26:5; Dan. 5:11, 12, 14; 10:1understanding in all visions and dreams.
18 Now at the end of the days, when the king had said that they should be brought in, the chief of the eunuchs brought them in before Nebuchadnezzar. 19 Then the king interviewed them, and among them all none was found like Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah; therefore Gen. 41:46; (Prov. 22:29); Dan. 1:5they served before the king.
