[3:30]  ¹ tn Aram “and the king.” The proper name has been supplied in the translation for stylistic reasons.

[4:16]  ² tn Aram “its heart.” The metaphor of the tree begins to fade here and the reality behind the symbol (the king) begins to emerge.

[4:16]  ³ sn The seven periods of time probably refer to seven years.

[4:16]  ⁴ tn Aram “over” (also in vv. 23, 25, 32).

[7:15]  ⁶ tn Aram “head.”

[10:15]  ⁷ tn Heb “speaking to me according to these words.”
