Daniel 2:23

Context

2:23 O God of my fathers, I acknowledge and glorify you,

for you have bestowed wisdom and power on me.

Now you have enabled me to understand what I 1  requested from you.

For you have enabled me to understand the king’s dilemma.” 2 

Daniel 4:18

Context

4:18 “This is the dream that I, King Nebuchadnezzar, saw. Now you, Belteshazzar, declare its 3  interpretation, for none of the wise men in 4  my kingdom are able to make known to me the interpretation. But you can do so, for a spirit of the holy gods is in you.”

Daniel 4:34

Context

4:34 But at the end of the appointed time 5  I, Nebuchadnezzar, looked up 6  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 6:26

Context
6:26 I have issued an edict that throughout all the dominion of my kingdom people are to revere and fear the God of Daniel.

“For he is the living God;

he endures forever.

His kingdom will not be destroyed;

his authority is forever. 7 

Daniel 9:18

Context
9:18 Listen attentively, 8  my God, and hear! Open your eyes and look on our desolated ruins 9  and the city called by your name. 10  For it is not because of our own righteous deeds that we are praying to you, 11  but because your compassion is abundant.

1 tn Aram “we.” Various explanations have been offered for the plural, but it is probably best understood as the editorial plural; so also with “me” later in this verse.

2 tn Aram “the word of the king.”

3 tc The present translation reads פִּשְׁרֵהּ (pishreh, “its interpretation”) with the Qere and many medieval Hebrew MSS; the Kethib is פִּשְׁרָא (pishra’, “the interpretation”); so also v. 16.

4 tn Aram “of.”

5 tn Aram “days.”

6 tn Aram “lifted up my eyes.”

7 tn Aram “until the end.”

8 tn Heb “turn your ear.”

9 tn Heb “desolations.” The term refers here to the ruined condition of Judah’s towns.

10 tn Heb “over which your name is called.” Cf. v. 19. This expression implies that God is the owner of his city, Jerusalem. Note the use of the idiom in 2 Sam 12:28; Isa 4:1; Amos 9:12.

11 tn Heb “praying our supplications before you.”
