Daniel 2:21-23

Context

2:21 He changes times and seasons,

deposing some kings

and establishing others. 1 

He gives wisdom to the wise;

he imparts knowledge to those with understanding; 2 

2:22 he reveals deep and hidden things.

He knows what is in the darkness,

and light resides with him.

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 3  requested from you.

For you have enabled me to understand the king’s dilemma.” 4

[2:21]  1 tn Aram “kings.”

[2:21]  2 tn Aram “the knowers of understanding.”

[2:23]  3 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.

[2:23]  4 tn Aram “the word of the king.”
