Daniel 2:16 in Context — Daniel 2
14 Alors Daniel s’adressa d’une manière prudente et sensée à Arjoc, chef des gardes du roi, qui était sorti pour mettre à mort les sages de Babylone.
15 Il prit la parole et dit à Arjoc, commandant du roi: Pourquoi la sentence du roi est-elle si sévère? Arjoc exposa la chose à Daniel.
16 Et Daniel se rendit vers le roi, et le pria de lui accorder du temps pour donner au roi l’explication.
17 Ensuite Daniel alla dans sa maison, et il instruisit de cette affaire Hanania, Mischaël et Azaria, ses compagnons,
18 les engageant à implorer la miséricorde du Dieu des cieux, afin qu’on ne fît pas périr Daniel et ses compagnons avec le reste des sages de Babylone.
