[6:8]  1 tn Aram “establish a written interdict and inscribe a written decree.”

[6:8]  2 tn Or “removed.”

[4:37]  3 tn Aram “walk.”

[5:12]  5 tc The translation reads מִפְשַׁר (mifshar) rather than the MT מְפַשַּׁר (mÿfashar) and later in the verse reads וּמִשְׁרֵא (mishre’) rather than the MT וּמְשָׁרֵא (mÿshare’). The Masoretes have understood these Aramaic forms to be participles, but they are more likely to be vocalized as infinitives. As such, they have an epexegetical function in the syntax of their clause.

[5:12]  6 tn Aram “to loose knots.”

[5:12]  7 tn Aram “let [Daniel] be summoned.”

[5:16]  7 tn The Aramaic text has also the words “about you.”

[5:16]  8 tn Or perhaps “one of three rulers,” in the sense of becoming part of a triumvir. So also v. 29.

[3:15]  9 tn Aram “hand.” So also in v. 17.
