Daniel 1:20

Context
1:20 In every matter of wisdom and 1  insight the king asked them about, he found them to be ten times 2  better than any of the magicians and astrologers that were in his entire empire.

Daniel 2:38

Context
2:38 Wherever human beings, 3  wild animals, 4  and birds of the sky live – he has given them into your power. 5  He has given you authority over them all. You are the head of gold.

1 tc The MT lacks the conjunction, reading the first word in the phrase as a construct (“wisdom of insight”). While this reading is not impossible, it seems better to follow Theodotion, the Syriac, the Vulgate, and the Sahidic Coptic, all of which have the conjunction.

2 tn Heb “hands.”

3 tn Aram “the sons of man.”

4 tn Aram “the beasts of the field.”

5 tn Aram “hand.”
