Daniel 8:5

8:5 While I was contemplating all this, ¹  a male goat ²  was coming from the west over the surface of all the land ³  without touching the ground. This goat had a conspicuous horn ⁴  between its eyes.

Daniel 10:6

10:6 His body resembled yellow jasper, ⁵  and his face had an appearance like lightning. His eyes were like blazing torches; ⁶  his arms and feet had the gleam of polished bronze. His voice ⁷  thundered forth like the sound of a large crowd.

¹ tn The words “all this” are added in the translation for stylistic reasons and for clarification.

² tn Heb “and behold, a he-goat of the goats.”

³ tn Or “of the whole earth” (NAB, ASV, NASB, NRSV).

⁴ tn Heb “a horn of vision” [or “conspicuousness”], i.e., “a conspicuous horn,” one easily seen.

⁵ tn The Hebrew word translated “yellow jasper” is תַּרשִׁישׁ (tarshish); it appears to be a semiprecious stone, but its exact identity is somewhat uncertain. It may be the yellow jasper, although this is conjectural. Cf. NAB, NIV “chrysolite”; NASB, NRSV “beryl.”

⁶ tn Heb “torches of fire.”

⁷ tn Heb “The sound of his words” (cf. v. 9).
