Daniel 4:11

4:11 The tree grew large and strong.

Its top reached far into the sky;

it could be seen ¹  from the borders of all the land. ² 

Daniel 4:22

4:22 it is you, ³  O king! For you have become great and strong. Your greatness is such that it reaches to heaven, and your authority to the ends of the earth.

¹ tn Aram “its sight.” So also v. 17.

² tn Or “to the end of all the earth” (so KJV, ASV); NCV, CEV “from anywhere on earth.”

³ sn Much of modern scholarship views this chapter as a distortion of traditions that were originally associated with Nabonidus rather than with Nebuchadnezzar. A Qumran text, the Prayer of Nabonidus, is often cited for parallels to these events.
