“Behold, thou art wiser than Daniel; there is no secret that they can hide from thee:”
Behold, you are wiser than Daniel; no secret is hidden from you, repeating the ironic attribution of superior wisdom to emphasize the prince's fundamental misunderstanding of his own capacities. The repetition serves to indict the prince for confusing human cleverness with divine omniscience, a confusion that lies at the root of his pride.
