Bible verse
Then Daniel returned to his house and explained the matter to his friends Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah,
Daniel 2:17 · BSB
The verses around it, from Daniel 2.
13 So the decree went out that the wise men were to be executed, and men went to look for Daniel and his friends to execute them.
14 When Arioch, the commander of the king’s guard, had gone out to execute the wise men of Babylon, Daniel replied with discretion and tact.
15 “Why is the decree from the king so harsh?” he asked. At this time Arioch explained the situation to Daniel.
16 So Daniel went in and asked the king to give him some time, so that he could give him the interpretation.
17 Then Daniel returned to his house and explained the matter to his friends Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah,
18 urging them to plead for mercy from the God of heaven concerning this mystery, so that Daniel and his friends would not be killed with the rest of the wise men of Babylon.
19 During the night, the mystery was revealed to Daniel in a vision, and he blessed the God of heaven
20 and declared: “Blessed be the name of God forever and ever, for wisdom and power belong to Him.
21 He changes the times and seasons; He removes kings and establishes them. He gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to the discerning.
