Daniel 8:3

8:3 I looked up ¹  and saw ²  a ³  ram with two horns standing at the canal. Its two horns were both long, ⁴  but one was longer than the other. The longer one was coming up after the shorter one.

Daniel 8:5

8:5 While I was contemplating all this, ⁵  a male goat ⁶  was coming from the west over the surface of all the land ⁷  without touching the ground. This goat had a conspicuous horn ⁸  between its eyes.

[8:3]  ¹ tn Heb “lifted my eyes.”

[8:3]  ² tn Heb “and behold.”

[8:3]  ³ tn Heb “one.” The Hebrew numerical adjective occasionally functions like an English indefinite article. See GKC 401 §125.b.

[8:3]  ⁴ tn Heb “high” (also “higher” later in this verse).

[8:5]  ⁵ tn The words “all this” are added in the translation for stylistic reasons and for clarification.

[8:5]  ⁶ tn Heb “and behold, a he-goat of the goats.”

[8:5]  ⁷ tn Or “of the whole earth” (NAB, ASV, NASB, NRSV).

[8:5]  ⁸ tn Heb “a horn of vision” [or “conspicuousness”], i.e., “a conspicuous horn,” one easily seen.
