Then came in the magicians, the astrologers, the Chaldeans, and the soothsayers: and I told the dream before them; but they did not make known unto me the interpretation thereof.
When the magicians, enchanters, astrologers, and diviners came in, I told them the dream, and they could not interpret it for me.
Then the magicians, the enchanters, the Chaldeans, and the soothsayers came in; and I told them the dream, but they didn’t make known to me its interpretation.

In context
4 I, Nebuchadnezzar, was at peace in mine own house, and was prosperous in my palace.
5 A dream, I saw, and it made me afraid,—and, fancies upon my bed, and visions of my head, terrified me.
6 Therefore made I a decree, to bring in before me, all the wise men of Babylon,—who, the interpretation of the dream, should make known to me.
7 Then came in the sacred scribes, the magicians, the Chaldeans, and the astrologers,—and, the dream, told I before them, but, the interpretation, could they not make known to me.
8 Howbeit, at last, came before me—Daniel, whose, name, was Belteshazzar, after the name of my god, and in whom is the spirit of the holy gods; and, the dream—before him, I told [saying]:
9 O Belteshazzar, chief of the sacred scribes, because I know that, the spirit of the holy gods, is in thee,—and no secret giveth thee trouble, [therefore], the visions of my dream which I have seen, and the interpretation thereof, do thou tell.
10 The visions then of my head upon my bed [were these],—I was looking, when lo! a tree in the midst of the land, and, the height thereof, was great.
