2:23 O God of my fathers, I acknowledge and glorify you,
for you have bestowed wisdom and power on me.
Now you have enabled me to understand what I 1 requested from you.
For you have enabled me to understand the king’s dilemma.” 2
1 tn Aram “we.” Various explanations have been offered for the plural, but it is probably best understood as the editorial plural; so also with “me” later in this verse.
2 tn Aram “the word of the king.”
