Nu dan, de wijzen, de geestenbezweerders, zijn voor mij gebracht om dit schrift te lezen en mij den uitleg er van te geven; maar zij zijn buiten staat de woorden uit te leggen.
Nu, zo zijn voor mij ingebracht de wijzen en de sterrekijkers, om dit schrift te lezen, en deszelfs uitlegging mij bekend te maken; maar zij kunnen de uitlegging dezer woorden niet te kennen geven.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And now the wise men; the astrologers, have been brought in before me,.... For it seems they came not of themselves, or upon hearing his loud cry; but were sent for by him, and came by his orders, and were introduced into his presence by the proper officers:
that they should read this writing, and make known unto me the interpretation thereof; pointing to the writing upon the wall:
but they could not show the interpretation of the thing; nor even read it; though it may be some of them might attempt to read it, and did read it in their way, as well as they could, or at least pretended to read; yet could make no manner of sense of it, which was the thing the king was intent upon.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
And now the wise men ... - Daniel 5:7-8.
