19 Then the secret was revealed to Daniel ain a night vision. So Daniel blessed the God of heaven.

a“Blessed be the name of God forever and ever,
bFor wisdom and might are His. 
21 And He changes athe times and the seasons;
bHe removes kings and raises up kings;
cHe gives wisdom to the wise
And knowledge to those who have understanding. 
22 aHe reveals deep and secret things;
bHe knows what is in the darkness,
And clight dwells with Him. 
23 “I thank You and praise You,
O God of my fathers;
You have given me wisdom and might,
And have now made known to me what we aasked of You,
For You have made known to us the king’s1 demand.”  

Daniel Explains the Dream

24 Therefore Daniel went to Arioch, whom the king had appointed to destroy the wise men of Babylon. He went and said thus to him: “Do not destroy the wise men of Babylon; take me before the king, and I will tell the king the interpretation.”
25 Then Arioch quickly brought Daniel before the king, and said thus to him, “I have found a man of the1 captives of Judah, who will make known to the king the interpretation.”  
26 The king answered and said to Daniel, whose name was Belteshazzar, “Are you able to make known to me the dream which I have seen, and its interpretation?”

Daniel 2:21

He changeth - God can make the sun go back or stand still, as in Ahaz and Joshua's time, it is the great part of God's power and prerogative to change times. Daniel here attributes that to God, which Heathens attributed to nature, or chance. God only, that made all by his power, doth rule, and over - rule all by his providence.
