Daniel 5:23

Context
5:23 Instead, you have exalted yourself against the Lord of heaven. You brought before you the vessels from his temple, and you and your nobles, together with your wives and concubines, drank wine from them. You praised the gods of silver, gold, bronze, iron, wood, and stone – gods 1  that cannot see or hear or comprehend! But you have not glorified the God who has in his control 2  your very breath and all your ways!

Daniel 6:12

Context
6:12 So they approached the king and said to him, 3  “Did you not issue an edict to the effect that for the next thirty days anyone who prays to any god or human other than to you, O king, would be thrown into a den of lions?” The king replied, “That is correct, 4  according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which cannot be changed.”

1 tn Aram “which.”

2 tn Aram “in whose hand [are].”

3 tc The MT also has “about the edict of the king,” but this phrase is absent in the LXX and the Syriac. The present translation deletes the expression.

tn Aram “before the king.”

4 tn Aram “the word is true.”
