Daniel 5:23

5:23 Instead, you have exalted yourself against the Lord of heaven.

You praised the gods of silver, gold, bronze, iron, wood, and stone – gods ³⁰  that cannot see or hear or comprehend! But you have not glorified the God who has in his control ³¹  your very breath and all your ways!

[11:26]  ¹ tc The present translation reads יִשָׁטֵף (yishatef, passive) rather than the MT יִשְׁטוֹף (yishtof, active).

[3:22]  ² tn Aram “caused to go up.”

[3:22]  ³ tn The Aramaic verb is active.

[3:22]  ⁴ tn Aram “the flame of the fire” (so KJV, ASV, NASB); NRSV “the raging flames.”

[11:33]  ⁵ tn Heb “the many.”

[11:33]  ⁶ tn Heb “stumble.”

[11:33]  ⁷ tn Or “by burning.”

[11:33]  ⁸ tn Heb “days.”

[11:45]  ⁹ sn Presumably seas refers to the Mediterranean Sea and the Dead Sea.

[12:2]  ¹⁰ sn This verse is the only undisputed reference to a literal resurrection found in the Hebrew Bible.

[3:28]  ¹¹ tn Aram “answered and said.”

[3:28]  ¹² sn The king identifies the “son of the gods” (v. 25) as an angel. Comparable Hebrew expressions are used elsewhere in the Hebrew Bible for the members of God’s angelic assembly (see Gen 6:2, 4; Job 1:6; 2:1; 38:7; Pss 29:1; 89:6). An angel later comes to rescue Daniel from the lions (Dan 6:22).

[3:28]  ¹³ tn Aram “they changed” or “violated.”

[3:28]  ¹⁴ tn Aram “so that they might not.”

[2:14]  ¹⁵ tn Aram “returned prudence and counsel.” The expression is a hendiadys.

[2:18]  ¹⁶ tn Aram “Daniel.” The proper name is redundant here in English, and has not been included in the translation.

[12:13]  ¹⁷ tn The words “your way” are not in the Hebrew text, but are implied.

[12:13]  ¹⁸ tc The LXX lacks “until the end.”

[12:13]  ¹⁹ tn The word “receive” is added in the translation for clarification.

[12:13]  ²⁰ sn The deuterocanonical writings known as the Story of Susanna and Bel and the Dragon appear respectively as chapters 13 and 14 of the book of Daniel in the Greek version of this book. Although these writings are not part of the Hebrew/Aramaic text of Daniel, they were popular among certain early communities who valued traditions about the life of Daniel.

[7:19]  ²¹ tn Aram “to make certain.”

[11:20]  ²² tn Heb “on his place.”

[11:20]  ²³ sn The one who will send out an exactor of tribute was Seleucus IV Philopator (ca. 187-176 B.C.).

[11:20]  ²⁴ sn Perhaps this exactor of tribute was Heliodorus (cf. 2 Maccabees 3).

[11:20]  ²⁵ tn Heb “broken” or “shattered.”

[9:26]  ²⁶ sn The expression have nothing is difficult. Presumably it refers to an absence of support or assistance for the anointed one at the time of his “cutting off.” The KJV rendering “but not for himself,” apparently suggesting a vicarious death, cannot be defended.

[9:26]  ²⁷ tc Some witnesses (e.g., the Syriac) understand a passive verb and the preposition עִם (’im, “with) rather than the noun עַם (’am, “people”), thus reading “the city and the sanctuary will be destroyed with the coming prince.”

[9:26]  ²⁸ tn The words “will come speedily” are not in the Hebrew text but have been added in the translation for clarity.

[9:26]  ²⁹ sn Flood here is a metaphor for sudden destruction.

[5:23]  ³⁰ tn Aram “which.”

[5:23]  ³¹ tn Aram “in whose hand [are].”
