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 4:12

Context

4:12 Its foliage was attractive and its fruit plentiful;

on it there was food enough for all.

Under it the wild animals 3  used to seek shade,

and in its branches the birds of the sky used to nest.

All creatures 4  used to feed themselves from it.

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 beasts of the field.”

4 tn Aram “all flesh.”
