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 ¡Cuán grandes son sus señales! ¡Cuán portentosas son sus maravillas! ¡Su reino es un reino eterno! ¡Su soberanía permanece de generación en generación!

4 Yo, Nabucodonosor, estaba en mi palacio, feliz y lleno de prosperidad,

5 cuando tuve un sueño que me infundió miedo. Recostado en mi lecho, las imágenes y visiones que pasaron por mi mente me llenaron de terror.

6 Ordené entonces que vinieran a mi presencia todos los sabios de Babilonia para que me interpretaran el sueño.

7 Cuando llegaron los magos, hechiceros, astrólogos y adivinos, les conté mi sueño pero no me lo pudieron interpretar.
