Daniel 7:8

7:8 “As I was contemplating the horns, another horn – a small one – came up between them, and three of the former horns were torn out by the roots to make room for it. ¹  This horn had eyes resembling human eyes and a mouth speaking arrogant ²  things.

Daniel 9:27

9:27 He will confirm a covenant with many for one week. ³ 

But in the middle of that week

he will bring sacrifices and offerings to a halt.

On the wing ⁴  of abominations will come ⁵  one who destroys,

until the decreed end is poured out on the one who destroys.”

[7:8]  ¹ tn Aram “were uprooted from before it.”

[7:8]  ² tn Aram “great.” So also in vv. 11, 20.

[9:27]  ³ tn Heb “one seven” (also later in this line).

[9:27]  ⁴ tn The referent of the Hebrew word כְּנַף (kÿnaf, “wing”) is unclear here. The LXX and Theodotion have “the temple.” Some English versions (e.g., NAB, NIV) take this to mean “a wing of the temple,” but this is not clear.

[9:27]  ⁵ tn The Hebrew text does not have this verb, but it has been supplied in the translation for clarity.
