Daniel 4:5

5 Tive um sonho que me espantou; e estando eu na minha cama, os pensamentos e as visões da minha cabeça me perturbaram.

Daniel 4:5 Meaning and Commentary

Daniel 4:5

I saw a dream which made me afraid
Things were represented to his fancy in a dream, as if he saw them with his eyes, as the tree, its leaves and fruit; the shaking and cutting it down to the stump; and though he did not understand the meaning of it, yet he thought it portended some evil, which threw him into a panic; he was afraid that something bad would befall him, though he knew not what: thus God can make the minds of the greatest men uneasy amidst all their glory, pride, and pleasure: and the thoughts upon my bed and the visions of my head troubled me;
the thoughts that came into his mind while he was upon his bed dreaming, and the things which were represented to his fancy in his brain, he remembered when awake, gave him a great deal of trouble and uneasiness, what should be the meaning of them, and what would be the issue and event of these things.

Daniel 4:5 In-Context

3 Quão grandes são os seus sinais, e quão poderosas as suas maravilhas! O seu reino é um reino sempiterno, e o seu domínio de geração em geração.
4 Eu, Nabucodonozor, estava sossegado em minha casa, e próspero no meu palácio.
5 Tive um sonho que me espantou; e estando eu na minha cama, os pensamentos e as visões da minha cabeça me perturbaram.
6 Portanto expedi um decreto, que fossem introduzidos � minha presença todos os sábios de Babilônia, para que me fizessem saber a interpretação do sonho.
7 Então entraram os magos, os encantadores, os caldeus, e os adivinhadores, e lhes contei o sonho; mas não me fizeram saber a interpretação do mesmo.
