La Bible David Martin (1744)
Et maintenant les sages et les astrologues ont été amenés devant moi, afin qu'ils lussent cette écriture, et m'en donnassent l'interprétation, mais ils n'en peuvent point donner l'interprétation.
Darby's French Translation
Et maintenant, les sages, les enchanteurs, ont été amenés devant moi, afin qu'ils lussent cette écriture et m'en fissent connaître l'interprétation, et ils n'ont pu indiquer l'interprétation de la chose.

On vient d'amener devant moi les sages et les astrologues, afin qu'ils lussent cette écriture et m'en donnassent l'explication; mais ils n'ont pas pu donner l'explication des mots.

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.
