OET (OET-RV) Then those officials went as a group and found Daniel praying to his god and presenting him with his requests.

SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 6:1–28: God delivered Daniel from the lions’ den

The new Persian king, Darius the Mede, chose Daniel to be one of the three officials who administered the kingdom. Daniel did his work so well that the other officials became jealous of him. One day they asked the king to pass a law that forbade praying to anyone but him for a period of thirty days. The king signed the law. Daniel, however, refused to obey it and continued to pray to the one true God, the God of Israel. When the king heard that Daniel had disobeyed the law, he ordered his soldiers to throw Daniel into the pit where he kept hungry lions. But God protected Daniel. The lions did not hurt him. When the king saw this, he punished Daniel’s enemies and honored Daniel and the God of Israel.

Other possible headings for this section include:

Daniel in the Pit of Lions (GNT)

Daniel and the Lions (NCV)

God protected Daniel from lions

Historical Background: The Persian empire under Cyrus the Great conquered Babylon in 539/538 BC, when Daniel was over seventy years old.Daniel was taken captive and brought to Babylon in approximately 605 B.C. If he was 12 years old when he came, he would have been 78 when this story began. The Persian empire became larger than the Babylonian empire had ever been. It extended west to include both Egypt and Libya. It extended east as far as the Indus River in what is now Pakistan. It was the largest empire in the history of the world up to that time.

Some commentators think that Darius the Mede was another name or title for the Persian King Cyrus or for the governor under him, Gubaru.

Text:

The verse numbers in the NJPS and the NJB are different from the verse numbers in the BSB. For example, 6:1 in the NJPS and the NJB is 5:31 in the BSB. The difference is because the NJPS and NJB follow the numbers in the Hebrew Bible. These Notes follow the verse numbers in the BSB.

Special Problems:

1. Lists: The author liked to include lists. In Daniel 6, he listed the different officials who conspired against Daniel (6:1–2; 7). Some languages may not have so many terms for officials. The Notes will suggest some ways to translate these lists.

2. Repetition: The author liked to repeat words and phrases in order to create suspense and emphasis. The Notes will give some suggestions on how to translate words or phrases that are repeated.

3. Verbs of Speech: The author sometimes used more than one verb of speech to introduce a quotation. In some languages, this may not be natural. The Notes will offer some options on how to translate these verbs.

4. Synonyms: The author liked to use synonyms or near synonyms to refer to the same idea. For example: 6:7–9 (ordinance, law, decree); 6:14 (rescue, delivering); 6:26 (kingdom, dominion); 6:27b (signs, wonders). The Notes will suggest different ways to translate these terms.

Paragraph 6:10–12c

After Daniel heard that the king had signed the law, he went home and prayed to God, as he had always done. The other officials saw this and informed the king.

6:11a

Then these men went as a group

Then: The Aramaic connector that the BSB translates as Then here introduces the next event in the narrative. After a change in the subject to Daniel, the subject is again the same as in 6:6a.

these men: This phrase refers to the satraps and administrators (6:4a, 6:6a) who were jealous of Daniel. If this is not clear, you may need to be more specific. For example:

the officials (NLT)

Daniel’s enemies (GNT)

these men who had spoken to the king (CEV)

went as a group: See the Notes at 6:6a, where the same word appears. Translate it here the same way as you did there. For example:

came as a group (GW)

went together (GNT)

6:11b

and found Daniel petitioning and imploring his God.

and found Daniel petitioning and imploring his God: The Aramaic verb that the BSB translates as found here means “saw, observed.” It does not indicate that the men had not known where Daniel was and had to search for him.The TH says that “the idea is that they caught him in the act of praying.” For example, La Bible du Semeur has: “Then these men came abruptly into his house and surprised him as he was in the process of praying and imploring his God.” Here are some other ways to translate this:

and saw him praying to his God for help (CEV)

observed him praying to God (GNT)

petitioning and imploring his God: In this context the two verbs petitioning and imploring are close synonyms. If you have two verbs that are similar in meaning you can use them here. In some languages it may be natural to use one verb. For example:

praying to God (GNT)

praying to his God for help (CEV)

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

6:1-28 God rescued and delivered his faithful servant Daniel (5:23; 6:20), whereas Belshazzar’s dead gods could not save him.

6:11 Note: KJB: Dān.6.10

OET (OET-RV) Then those officials went as a group and found Daniel praying to his god and presenting him with his requests.

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.
