1 tn Aram “not for any wisdom which is in me more than [in] any living man.”
2 tn Aram “they might cause the king to know.” The impersonal plural is used here to refer to the role of God’s spirit in revealing the dream and its interpretation to the king. As J. A. Montgomery says, “it appropriately here veils the mysterious agency” (Daniel [ICC], 164-65).
3 tn Aram “heart.”
4 tn Aram “from me there was placed a decree.”
5 tn The Aramaic infinitive here is active.
6 tn The Aramaic text does not have “and.” The term “astrologers” is either an appositive for “wise men” (cf. KJV, NKJV, ASV, RSV, NRSV), or the construction is to be understood as asyndetic (so the translation above).
7 tn Aram “what is certain.”
8 tn Aram “and made known.”
9 tn Aram “matter,” but the matter at hand is of course the vision.
10 tn Aram “my brightness was changing on me.”
11 tn Aram “in my heart.”
12 tn Heb “and behold.”
13 tc The Greek version of Theodotion reads “I left him [i.e., Michael] there,” and this is followed by a number of English translations (cf. NAB, NRSV, NLT).
