The Chaldeans answered before the king, and said, There is not a man upon the earth that can shew the king's matter: therefore there is no king, lord, nor ruler, that asked such things at any magician, or astrologer, or Chaldean.
The Chaldeans answered before the king ... There is not a man upon the earth that can show the king's matter. God makes the pagan, out of their own mouth, condemn their impotent pretensions to supernatural knowledge, in order to Bring out in brighter contrast His power to reveal secrets to His servants, though but "men upon the earth" (cf. Daniel 2:22-23).
Therefore there is no king, lord, nor ruler, that asked such things at any magician - i:e., if such things could be done by men, other absolute princes would have required them from their magicians; as they have not, it is a proof such things cannot be done, and cannot be reasonably asked from us.
