Daniel 9:23

9:23 At the beginning of your requests a message went out, and I have come to convey it to you, for you are of great value in God’s sight. ²  Therefore consider the message and understand the vision: ³ 

[9:20]  ¹ tn Heb “the holy mountain of my God.”

[9:23]  ² tn Or “a precious treasure”; KJV “greatly beloved”; NASB, NIV “highly esteemed.”

[9:23]  ³ tn This sentence is perhaps a compound hendiadys (“give serious consideration to the revelatory vision”).
