Then Daniel answered and said before the king, Let thy gifts be to thyself, and give thy rewards to another; nevertheless I will read the writing unto the king, and make known to him the interpretation.

Then Daniel made answer and said to the king, Keep your offerings for yourself, and give your rewards to another; but I, after reading the writing to the king, will give him the sense of it.

Τοτε ο Δανιηλ απεκριθη και ειπεν εμπροσθεν του βασιλεως, Τα δωρα σου ας ηναι εν σοι και δος εις αλλον τας αμοιβας σου· εγω δε θελω αναγνωσει την γραφην εις τον βασιλεα και θελω φανερωσει την ερμηνειαν προς αυτον.
