Android how to get current System Settings values?

Question

I know that I can change the Settings with:

Settings.System.putInt( getContentResolver() , 
         Settings.System.SCREEN_OFF_TIMEOUT , DELAY );

but I honestly can't find a solution on how to read the current value of that / any setting.
