The king was convinced of the truth of the interpretation, and in humility and awe he "fell upon his face, and worshiped," saying, "Of a truth it is, that your God is a God of gods, and a Lord of kings, and a revealer of secrets, seeing thou couldest reveal this secret."

Kongen var overbevist om, at tydningen var sand, og faldt i ydmyghed og ærefrygt "på sit ansigt og bøjede sig". Derpå sagde kongen: "I sandhed, eders Gud er gudernes Gud og kongernes Herre, og han kan åbenbare hemmeligheder, siden du har kunnet åbenbare denne hemmelighed."
