OET (OET-LV) In_security and_in_the_fat_places_of the_province he_will_come and_he_will_do that_which not they_did ancestors_of_his and_the_ancestors_of his_ancestors_of_his plunder and_booty and_property to/for_them he_will_scatter and_on strongholds he_will_plan plans_of_his and_unto a_time.

OET (OET-RV) He’ll come into the richest parts of the province in a time of peace, and he’ll do what neither his fathers nor his fathers’ fathers did. He will distribute plunder, booty, and possessions among them. He’ll make plans against fortresses, but only for a time.

SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 10:1–12:13: Daniel saw a vision of an angelic man and the end of the age

In this long final vision, Daniel was told of events leading up to the end of the age.

Paragraph 11:21–24

This paragraph tells of the rise of an evil ruler, one of the kings of the north. Scholars agree that this is a reference to Antiochus IV. Biblical scholars indicate that he is the “little horn” of Daniel 8:9–12, 23–25. Antiochus IV gave himself the title of Epiphanes, the Manifest One (that is, God Revealed). By using this title, he claimed to be the god Zeus incarnate. You can read more about him in 1–2 Maccabees, especially 1 Maccabees chapters 1 and 6. (In the NJB, 1 Maccabees follows the Book of Esther.)

11:24a

In a time of peace, he will invade the richest provinces

In a time of peace, he will invade the richest provinces: The Hebrew word that the BSB translates as a time of peace is literally “in quietness/peace.” It is the same word as in 11:21c and you should translate it the same way here. For example:

Without warning he shall come into the richest parts of the province (NRSV)

In an unexpected time he will invade the most productive areas of the province

He will invade a wealthy province without warning (GNT)

he will invade the richest provinces: The Hebrew verb that the BSB translates as invade is the general word meaning “come.” In this context it is implied that the despicable ruler and his army will enter these prosperous lands in order to rob them and control them. Here is another way to translate this:

he will invade the richest parts of the provinces (GW)

the richest provinces: The Hebrew phrase that the BSB translates as the richest provinces is more literally “the fatness of the province.” This is a metaphor for fertility and prosperity. The land in this area was rich and fertile and good for farming.

11:24b

and do what his fathers and forefathers never did.

and do what his fathers and forefathers never did: This verse part indicates that the despicable ruler would act in a way unlike that of his ancestors, the kings who ruled before him. This should be translated in a way that implies that his actions were more evil than those of his predecessors. Your translation should not imply that his accomplishments were more praiseworthy than those of his predecessors. Here are some other ways to translate this:

which is something his ancestors never did (CEV)

acting as his father or his fathers’ fathers never acted (NJB)

In some languages it may be natural to translate this as a separate sentence. For example:

He will do what none of his ancestors did.

his fathers and forefathers: This phrase is an emphatic way of referring to the ancestors of the despicable ruler. Emphasize this in a way that is natural in your language. For example:

not a single one of his ancestors (UBS Handbook)

11:24c

He will lavish plunder, loot, and wealth on his followers,

He will lavish plunder, loot, and wealth on his followers: The king of the North will give to his followers the various riches and treasures that his soldiers stole. Here are some other ways to translate this:

Then he will divide among his followers all of its treasures and property. (CEV)

He will rob the countries he defeats and give those things to his followers. (NCV)

plunder, loot, and wealth: The Hebrew words that the BSB translates as plunder, loot, and wealth are synonyms in this context. Together they refer to the money and treasures that the king gave to his soldiers, money and treasures that they had taken from their defeated enemies. In some languages it may be natural to describe these things with a verb or verbs rather than a series of three nouns. For example:

the goods and property he has captured in war (GNT)

He will rob the countries he defeats and will give those things to his followers. (NCV)

11:24d

and he will plot against the strongholds—but only for a time.

he will plot against the strongholds: This clause indicates the king of the North will plan to capture the fortresses or strongholds of his enemies. He will make military preparations to defeat their fortified cities. Here are some other ways to translate this:

He will plan to defeat and destroy strong cities (NCV)

He will make plans to attack fortresses (GNT)

but only for a time: The phrase but only for a time indicates that these things will only happen for a short or limited period of time. In some languages it may be helpful to make this explicit. For example:

but he will be successful for only a short time (NCV)

In some languages it may be natural to translate this as a separate sentence:

But none of this will last very long. (CEV)

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

וּ⁠בְ⁠מִשְׁמַנֵּ֣י מְדִינָה֮

and,in_[the],fat_places_of province

Here the angel is speaking as if the richest parts of the province were its fatnesses. Your language may have a comparable expression that you can use in your translation, or you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [even into the richest parts of the province]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

אֲבֹתָי⁠ו֙ וַ⁠אֲב֣וֹת אֲבֹתָ֔י⁠ו

ancestors_of,his and,the_ancestors_of his_ancestors_of,his

Here the angel is speaking as if the ancestors of this king were his fathers. Your language may have a comparable expression that you can use in your translation, or you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [his ancestors and their ancestors before them]

Note 3 topic: writing-pronouns

וּ⁠בְ⁠מִשְׁמַנֵּ֣י & בִּזָּ֧ה וְ⁠שָׁלָ֛ל וּ⁠רְכ֖וּשׁ לָ⁠הֶ֣ם יִבְז֑וֹר

(Some words not found in UHB: in,security and,in_[the],fat_places_of province come and,he_will_do which/who not they_had_acquired ancestors_of,his and,the_ancestors_of his_ancestors_of,his plunder and,booty and,property to/for=them distribute and,on strongholds devise plans_of,his and=unto time )

The pronoun He refers to the king, while the pronoun them refers to his soldiers and followers. It may be helpful to clarify this for your readers. Alternate translation: [even into the fatnesses of the province, the king will scatter plunder and spoil and wealth to his soldiers and followers]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / doublet

בִּזָּ֧ה וְ⁠שָׁלָ֛ל וּ⁠רְכ֖וּשׁ

plunder and,booty and,property

The terms plunder, spoil, and wealth mean similar things. The angel is using the three terms together for emphasis. If it would be clearer for your readers, you could express the emphasis with a single phrase. Alternate translation: [great amounts of captured goods]

Note 5 topic: writing-poetry

יְחַשֵּׁ֥ב מַחְשְׁבֹתָ֖י⁠ו

devise plans_of,his

The angel is using a construction in which a verb and its object come from the same root. You may be able to use the same construction in your language to express the meaning here. Alternatively, your language may have another way of saying this.

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

וְ⁠עַד־עֵֽת

and=unto time

The angel is leaving out some of the words that in many languages a sentence would need in order to be complete. You can supply these words from the context if that would be clearer in your language. Alternate translation: [but only until a certain time has passed]

OET (OET-RV) He’ll come into the richest parts of the province in a time of peace, and he’ll do what neither his fathers nor his fathers’ fathers did. He will distribute plunder, booty, and possessions among them. He’ll make plans against fortresses, but only for a time.

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.

Acknowledgements: The Hebrew text, lemmas, and morphology are all thanks to the OSHB and some of the glosses are from Macula Hebrew.OET logo mark
