Daniel 4:10

4:10 Here are the visions of my mind ¹  while I was on my bed.

While I was watching,

there was a tree in the middle of the land. ² 

It was enormously tall. ³ 

Daniel 4:34

4:34 But at the end of the appointed time ⁴  I, Nebuchadnezzar, looked up ⁵  toward heaven, and my sanity returned to me.

I extolled the Most High,

and I praised and glorified the one who lives forever.

For his authority is an everlasting authority,

and his kingdom extends from one generation to the next.

[4:10]  ¹ tc The LXX lacks the first two words (Aram “the visions of my head”) of the Aramaic text.

[4:10]  ² tn Instead of “in the middle of the land,” some English versions render this phrase “a tree at the center of the earth” (NRSV); NAB, CEV “of the world”; NLT “in the middle of the earth.” The Hebrew phrase can have either meaning.

[4:10]  ³ tn Aram “its height was great.”

[4:34]  ⁴ tn Aram “days.”

[4:34]  ⁵ tn Aram “lifted up my eyes.”
