Daniel 2:24

2:24 Then Daniel went in to see 1  Arioch (whom the king had appointed to destroy the wise men of Babylon). He came 2  and said to him, “Don’t destroy the wise men of Babylon! Escort me 3  to the king, and I will disclose the interpretation to him!” 4 

1 tc The MT has עַל עַל (’al ’al, “he entered upon”). Several medieval Hebrew MSS lack the verb, although this may be due to haplography.

2 tc The LXX and Vulgate, along with one medieval Hebrew MS, lack this verb.

3 tn Aram “cause me to enter.” So also in v. 25.

4 tn Aram “the king.”
