DAN 11:34 Parallel Verse View

Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible—click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed as a tool for doing comparisons of different translations—the older translations are further down the page (so you can read up from the bottom to trace the English translation history). The OET segments on this page are still very early looks into the unfinished texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible—please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

SOTN 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 11:33–35

This paragraph tells what will happen to those who resist the evil king of the North.

11:34a

Now when they fall, they will be granted a little help,

While they suffer, they will have a bit of help,
While they are suffering such persecution, a few people will give them a little help.

Now when they fall: The words Now when they fall refers to the time of persecution of the faithful Jews. These faithful ones will suffer the kind of persecution mentioned in the previous verse part. Other ways to translate this include:

When they fall victim (NRSV)

During these persecutions (NLT)

When they suffer in this way

they will be granted a little help: The Hebrew is more literally “they will be helped with a little help.” This is a reference to human help, which is always limited. This help probably includes, but is not limited to, the resistance of the Maccabees that is described in 1 Maccabees 2–4. Here are some other ways to translate this:

they will be given a little help

they will have/get some human help

some small help will come to them

they will be helped a little bit

11:34b

but many will join them insincerely.

but many who join with them will do so insincerely.
However, many will unite/ally themselves with them for selfish reasons.

but many will join them insincerely: The common Hebrew conjunction that the BSB translates as but here introduces something that lessens the value of the “help” mentioned in the previous verse part. In some languages it may therefore be natural to translate this with a conjunction indicating contrast, as the GW has done:

but many who are not sincere will join them (GW)

many will join them insincerely: The Hebrew of this clause is more literally “many will join themselves to them with slippery words.” This seems to indicate that many people would claim to support the Jewish resistance but would not be dependable or faithful. Here are some other ways to translate this:

many who join them will not be sincere (NLT)

many will unite with them deceitfully (NET)

many who join them will do so for selfish reasons (GNT)
