Daniel 2:36-38

2:36 This was the dream. Now we ¹  will set forth before the king its interpretation.

Daniel Interprets Nebuchadnezzar’s Dream

2:37 “You, O king, are the king of kings. The God of heaven has granted you sovereignty, power, strength, and honor. 2:38 Wherever human beings, ²  wild animals, ³  and birds of the sky live – he has given them into your power. ⁴  He has given you authority over them all. You are the head of gold.

[2:36]  ¹ tn Various suggestions have been made concerning the plural “we.” It is probably the editorial plural and could be translated here as “I.”

[2:38]  ² tn Aram “the sons of man.”

[2:38]  ³ tn Aram “the beasts of the field.”

[2:38]  ⁴ tn Aram “hand.”
