Daniel 4:21-22

Context
4:21 whose foliage was attractive and its fruit plentiful, and from which there was food available for all, under whose branches wild animals 1  used to live, and in whose branches birds of the sky used to nest – 4:22 it is you, 2  O king! For you have become great and strong. Your greatness is such that it reaches to heaven, and your authority to the ends of the earth.

1 tn Aram “the beasts of the field” (also in vv. 23, 25, 32).

2 sn Much of modern scholarship views this chapter as a distortion of traditions that were originally associated with Nabonidus rather than with Nebuchadnezzar. A Qumran text, the Prayer of Nabonidus, is often cited for parallels to these events.
