Verse 16 is found in chapter 2 of Daniel. Daniel responds to the threat with prudence and, before acting, gathers his companions to ask the God of heaven for mercy. The revelation comes during prayer and immediately produces praise that attributes wisdom, power, and control over times and kingdoms to God. The sequence of prayer, revelation, and worship shows that the knowledge received is not Daniel’s possession but a divine gift.
