Daniel 2:28

2:28 However, there is a God in heaven who reveals mysteries, 1  and he has made known to King Nebuchadnezzar what will happen in the times to come. 2  The dream and the visions you had while lying on your bed 3  are as follows.

Daniel 2:44

2:44 In the days of those kings the God of heaven will raise up an everlasting kingdom that will not be destroyed and a kingdom that will not be left to another people. It will break in pieces and bring about the demise of all these kingdoms. But it will stand forever.

Daniel 4:34

4:34 But at the end of the appointed time 4  I, Nebuchadnezzar, looked up 5  toward heaven, and my sanity returned to me.

I extolled the Most High,

and I praised and glorified the one who lives forever.

For his authority is an everlasting authority,

and his kingdom extends from one generation to the next.

Daniel 7:27

7:27 Then the kingdom, authority,

and greatness of the kingdoms under all of heaven

will be delivered to the people of the holy ones 6  of the Most High.

His kingdom is an eternal kingdom;

all authorities will serve him and obey him.’

1 tn Aram “a revealer of mysteries.” The phrase serves as a quasi-title for God in Daniel.

2 tn Aram “in the latter days.”

3 tn Aram “your dream and the visions of your head upon your bed.”

4 tn Aram “days.”

5 tn Aram “lifted up my eyes.”

6 tn If the “holy ones” are angels, then this probably refers to the angels as protectors of God’s people. If the “holy ones” are God’s people, then this is an appositional construction, “the people who are the holy ones.” See 8:24 for the corresponding Hebrew phrase and the note there.
