And on the twenty-fourth day of the first month I was by the side of the great river;

וּבְי֛וֹם (בְ) ve. “on”

And lifting up my eyes I saw the form of a man clothed in a linen robe, and round him there was a band of gold, of the best gold:

בְּכֶ֥תֶם (בְּ) be. “with”

And I, Daniel, was the only one who saw the vision, for the men who were with me did not see it; but a great shaking came on them and they went in flight to take cover.

בְּהֵחָבֵֽא׃ (בְּ) be. “in”

So I was by myself, and I saw this great vision, and all my strength went from me; and the colour went from my face.

בִּ֖י (בִּ֖) b “in”

Then a hand gave me a touch, awaking me, and putting me on my knees and my hands.

בִּ֑י (בִּ֑) B “<in>”

And he said to me, O Daniel, you man dearly loved, take in the sense of the words I say to you and get up on to your feet: for to you I am now sent; and when he had said this to me I got on to my feet, shaking with fear.

בַּדְּבָרִ֜ים (בַּ) ba. “<in> the”וּבְדַבְּר֥וֹ (בְ) ve. “when”

Then he said to me, Have no fear, Daniel; for from the first day when you gave your heart to getting wisdom and making yourself poor in spirit before your God, your words have come to his ears: and I have come because of your words.

בִּדְבָרֶֽיךָ׃ (בִּ) bi “on”

Now I have come to give you knowledge of the fate of your people in the later days; for there is still a vision for the days.

בְּאַחֲרִ֣ית (בְּ) be. “at”

And after he had said these words to me, I kept my face turned to the earth and was unable to say anything.

וּבְדַבְּר֣וֹ (בְ) ve. “when”

Then one whose form was like the sons of men put his finger on my lips; and opening my mouth, I said to him who was before me, O my lord, because of the vision my pains have come on me, and I have no more strength.

בַּמַּרְאָה֙ (בַּ) ba. “on the”

For how may this servant of my lord have talk with my lord? for, as for me, straight away my strength went from me and there was no breath in my body.

בִּ֣י (בִּ֣) b “in”בִֽי׃ (בִֽ) V “in”

Then again one having the form of a man put his hand on me and gave me strength. And he said to me, O man greatly loved, have no fear: peace be with you, be strong and let your heart be lifted up. And at his words I became strong, and said, Let my lord s

בִּ֛י (בִּ֛) b “<in>”

Then he said, It is clear to you why I have come to you. And now I will give you an account of what is recorded in the true writings:

וּֽבְדַבְּר֤וֹ (בְ) be. “when”

בִּכְתָ֖ב (בִּ) bi “in”

And as for me, in the first year of Darius the Mede I was on his side to make his position safe and make him strong.

בִּשְׁנַ֣ת (בִּ) bi “in”

And now I will make clear to you what is true. There are still three kings to come in Persia, and the fourth will have much greater wealth than all of them: and when he has become strong through his wealth, he will put his forces in motion against all th

בְעָשְׁר֔וֹ (בְ) ve. “by”

And at the end of years they will be joined together; and the daughter of the king of the south will come to the king of the north to make an agreement: but she will not keep the strength of her arm; and his offspring will not keep their place; but she w

בָּעִתִּֽים׃ (בָּ) ba. “in the”

But out of a branch from her roots one will come up to take his place, who will come against the army, forcing his way into the strong place of the king of the north, and he will take them in hand and overcome them:

בְּמָעוֹז֙ (בְּ) be. “in”בָהֶ֖ם (בָ) va. “with”

And their gods and their metal images and their fair vessels of silver and gold he will take away into the south; and for some years he will keep away from the king of the north.

בַּשְּׁבִ֖י (בַּ) ba. “in <the>”

And he will come into the kingdom of the king of the south, but he will go back to his land.

בְּמַלְכוּת֙ (בְּ) be. “in”

And the king of the south will be moved with wrath, and will come out and make war on him, on this same king of the north: and he will get together a great army, but the army will be given into his hand.

בְּיָדֽוֹ׃ (בְּ) be. “in”

And again the king of the north will get together an army greater than the first; and he will make an attack on him at the end of years, with a great army and much wealth.

בְּחַ֥יִל (בְּ) be. “with”וּבִרְכ֥וּשׁ (בִ) vi “with”

In those times, a number will take up arms against the king of the south: and the children of the violent among your people will be lifting themselves up to make the vision come true; but it will be their downfall.

וּבָעִתִּ֣ים (בָ) va. “in the”

And he who comes against him will do his pleasure, and no one will be able to keep his place before him: he will take up his position in the beautiful land and in his hand there will be destruction.

בְּאֶֽרֶץ־ (בְּ) be. “in”בְיָדֽוֹ׃ (בְ) ve. “[will be] in”

And it will be his purpose to come with the strength of all his kingdom, but in place of this he will make an agreement with him; and he will give him the daughter of women to send destruction on it; but this will not take place or come about.
