Daniel 2:21-23

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

²¹ He changes times and seasons;
    he removes kings and sets up kings;
he gives wisdom to the wise
    and knowledge to those who have understanding;
²² he reveals deep and mysterious things;
    he knows what is in the darkness,
    and the light dwells with him.
²³ To thee, O God of my fathers,
    I give thanks and praise,
for thou hast given me wisdom and strength,
    and hast now made known to me what we asked of thee,
    for thou hast made known to us the king’s matter.”
