- the magicians:
- "Then the kingª commandedª° to callª° the magicians,ª and the astrologers,ª and the sorcerers,ª° and the Chaldeans,ª for to shewª° the kingª his dreams.ª So they cameª° and stoodª° beforeª the king.ª ... And [it is] a rareª thingª that¹ the kingª requireth,ª° and there isª noneª otherª that¹ can shewª° it beforeª the king,ª exceptª the gods,ª whose¹ dwellingª isª notª withª flesh.ª" {Dan 2:2-11} + "And he¹ changethª° the timesª and the seasons:ª he removethª° kings,ª and setteth upª° kings:ª he givethª° wisdomª unto the wise,ª and knowledgeª to them that knowª° understanding:ª ... Iª thankª° thee, and praiseª° thee, O thou Godª of my fathers,ª who¹ hast givenª° me wisdomª and might,ª and hast made knownª° unto me nowª what¹ we desiredª° of¹ thee:² for¹ thou hast [now] made knownª° unto us the king'sª matter.ª" {Dan 2:21-23} + "Thenª came²° in¹ the magicians,ª the astrologers,ª the Chaldeans,ª and the soothsayers:ª° and Iª toldª° the dreamª beforeª them; but they did notª make knownª° unto me the interpretationª thereof." {Dan 4:7} + "But atª the lastª Danielª came in²¹ before¹ me,² whose¹ nameª [was] Belteshazzar,ª according to the nameª of my god,ª and in whom¹ [is] the spiritª of the holyª gods:ª and beforeª him I toldª° the dream,ª [saying], ... Thisª dreamª Iª kingª Nebuchadnezzarª have seen.ª° Now thou,ª O Belteshazzar,ª declareª° the interpretationª thereof, forasmuch asª¹¹ allª the wiseª [men] of my kingdomª are not² ableª°¹ to make knownª° unto me the interpretation:ª but thouª [art] able;ª° for¹ the spiritª of the holyª godsª [is] in thee." {Dan 4:8-18} + "The kingª criedª° aloudª to bring²° in¹ the astrologers,ª the Chaldeans,ª and the soothsayers.ª° [And] the kingª spake,ª° and saidª° to the wiseª [men] of Babylon,ª Whosoeverªª¹ shall readª° thisª writing,ª and shewª° me the interpretationª thereof, shall be clothedª° with scarlet,ª and [have] a chainª of¹ goldª aboutª his neck,ª and shall be the third² rulerª°¹ in the kingdom.ª ... Thenª came²° in¹ allª the king'sª wiseª [men]: but they couldª° notª readª° the writing,ª nor make knownª° to the kingª the interpretationª thereof." {Dan 5:7-8} + "Thenª Danielª answeredª° and saidª° beforeª the king,ª Let thy giftsª beª° to thyself, and giveª° thy rewardsª to another;ª yetª I will readª° the writingª unto the king,ª and make knownª° to him the interpretation.ª" {Dan 5:17} + "And it came to pass¹ in the morningª that his spiritª was troubled;ª° and he sentª° and called²° for¹¹ all¹ the magiciansª of Egypt,ª and all¹ the wise menª thereof: and Pharaohª toldª° them¹ his dream;ª but [there was] none¹ that could interpretª° them unto Pharaoh.ª" {Gen 41:8} + "Then Pharaohª also¹ calledª° the wise menª and the sorcerers:ª° now the magiciansª of Egypt,ª they¹ also¹ didª° in like mannerª with their enchantments.ª ... For they cast downª° every manª his rod,ª and they became¹ serpents:ª but Aaron'sª rodª swallowed upª°¹ their rods.ª" {Exd 7:11-12} + "And the magiciansª of Egyptª didª° so¹ with their enchantments:ª and Pharaoh'sª heartª was hardened,ª° neither¹ did he hearkenª° unto¹ them; as¹ the LORDª had said.ª°" {Exd 7:22} + "And the magiciansª didª° so¹ with their enchantments,ª and brought upª°¹ frogsª upon¹ the landª of Egypt.ª" {Exd 8:7} + "Then the magiciansª saidª° unto¹ Pharaoh,ª This¹ [is] the fingerª of God:ª and Pharaoh'sª heartª was hardened,ª° and he hearkenedª° not¹ unto¹ them; as¹ the LORDª had said.ª°" {Exd 8:19} + "And the spiritª of Egyptª shall failª° in the midstª thereof; and I will destroyª° the counselª thereof: and they shall seekª° to¹ the idols,ª and to¹ the charmers,ª and to¹ them that have familiar spirits,ª and to¹ the wizards.ª" {Isa 19:3} + "Standª° now¹ with thine enchantments,ª and with the multitudeª of thy sorceries,ª whereinª thou hast labouredª° from thy youth;ª¹ if so be¹ thou shalt be ableª° to profit,ª° if so be¹ thou mayest prevail.ª° ... Behold,¹ they shall be¹ as stubble;ª the fireª shall burnª° them; they shall not¹ deliverª°¹ themselvesª from the powerª¹ of the flame:ª [there shall] not¹ [be] a coalª to warmª° at, [nor] fireª to sitª° before¹ it." {Isa 47:12-14} + "² Nowª asª¹ Jannesª andª Jambresª withstoodª° Moses,ª soª do²° theseª alsoª resistª° the¹ truth:ª menª of corruptª° minds,ª reprobateª concerningª the¹ faith.ª ... Butª they shall proceedª° noª further:ªª forª theirª follyª shall beª° manifestª unto allª [men], asª theirsª alsoª was.ª°" {2Tm 3:8-9}
