Context9:20 While I was still speaking and praying, confessing my sin and the sin of my people Israel and presenting my request before the LORD my God concerning his holy mountain 3 – 9:21 yes, while I was still praying, 4 the man Gabriel, whom I had seen previously 5 in a vision, was approaching me in my state of extreme weariness, 6 around the time of the evening offering.

1 tn Aram “in the mouth of the king.”
2 tn Aram “to you they say.”
3 tn Heb “the holy mountain of my God.”
4 tn Heb “speaking in prayer.”
5 tn Heb “in the beginning.”
6 tn The Hebrew expression בִּיעָף מֻעָף (mu’af bi’af) is very difficult. The issue is whether the verb derives from עוּף (’uf, “to fly”) or from יָעַף (ya’af, “to be weary”). Many ancient versions and modern commentators take the first of these possibilities and understand the reference to be to the swift flight of the angel Gabriel in his coming to Daniel. The words more likely refer to the extreme weariness, not of the angel, but of Daniel. Cf. 7:28; 8:27; 10:8-9, 16-17; also NASB.
7 tn Heb “heart.” So also in v. 28.
8 tn Heb “speak.”
