STRONGS H1768: Abbreviations

Biblical Aramaic

דִּי particle of relation, who, which, that, used also as mark of genitive and conjunction that, because (Aramaic of Nineveh, Babylonian, Zinjirli, Nerab, Cilicia, Têma, Egypt, ןי (Lzb267. 446 RES361 S-CPap. A 2 +); Nabataean, Palmyrene די; Targum דְּ (except in compounds, as דִּילִי mine, דִּילֵיהּ his); Samaritan D; Syriac D; Ethiopic ዘ፡ za: of same origin as Arabic ذُو possessor of [compare below Biblical Hebrew זֶה]. Properly a demonstrative that [compare זֶה; in Ethiopic ze is 'this', za 'which']; but this being referred by usage to something preceding becomes equivalent to the relative who, which, used, however, more widely than Hebrew אֲשֶׁר); —
1. as relative who, which (construed like אֲשֶׁר):
a. Jeremiah 10:11; Daniel 2:11 דִּי מְדָֽרְהוֺן whose dwelling, Daniel 2:24 דִּי מַנִּי מַלְבָּא whom the king had appointed, Daniel 2:26 דִּי שְׁמֵהּ בּ׳ whose name was B., Daniel 4:5; Daniel 5:12, 23, etc.; = that which Daniel 2:23; = him that Ezra 7:25; Ezra 6:15; Daniel 7:17 דִּת אִנוּן אַרְבַּע which are four (see אִנּוּן). Following pronoun of 2nd person (compare אֲשֶׁר 3), Daniel 2:37 thou, O king..., יְהַב לָח⬩⬩⬩דִּי to whom... hath given, Daniel 4:19; Daniel 4:6 as to whom I know, etc. (compare אֲשֶׁר 4d end). Sq. תַּמָּה = where Ezra 6:1, so דִּי alone Ezra 6:3; Daniel 2:38; of time, בְּעִדָּנָא דִּי at the time when, etc., Daniel 3:5, 15. With the predicate an infinitive with לְ, Daniel 6:9 כְּתָבָא דִּי לָא לְהַשְׁנָיָה which is not to be changed, Ezra 6:8; a place- or other determination, Daniel 3:20 valiant men בְחֵילֵהּ that were in his army, Daniel 5:2 הֵיכְלָא דִּי בִירוּשְׁלֵב, Daniel 7:20; Ezra 4:24; Ezra 5:6; Ezra 6:2, 6; compare Daniel 2:25; Daniel 5:13; Daniel 7:7; Ezra 7:23. דִּי לָא = without, Ezra 6:9; Ezra 7:22 (so דְּלָא Targum Genesis 15:2; Exodus 21:11); compare Daniel 2:34, 45.
b. מָן דִּי, מָה דִּי (compare in late Hebrew מַה־שֶּׁ׳, מַה 1e b) whoever, whatever, so † Daniel 3:6, 11 מָֽן־דִּי־לָא יִפֵּל whoever does not fall down, Daniel 4:14 לְמָן דִּי יִצְבֵּא to whomsoever he willeth, Daniel 4:22; Daniel 4:29; Daniel 5:21; מָה דִי whatever (or simply what), † Daniel 2:28 מָה דִּי לֶהֱוֵא what will be, Daniel 2:29; Daniel 2:29; Daniel 2:45; Ezra 6:8; Ezra 7:18. — compare K§ 103.
2. as mark of the genitive, Daniel 2:15 שׁליטא די מלכא properly the captain, that of the king = the king's captain (a genuine Aramaic idiom: so Targum דְּ, Syriac D constantly), Daniel 2:19; Daniel 2:25; Daniel 2:49 + often: the substantive in such cases may be either in the emphatic state (determined), as ll. cc. Ezra 4:15; Ezra 5:2, etc., or in the absolute state (undetermined), Daniel 5:5; Daniel 7:4, 9, 10 נְהַר דִּי נוּר; or it may have a pleonastic suffix, Daniel 2:20 שְׁמֵהּ דִּי אֱלָהָא literally his name, that of God = God's name, Daniel 2:44; Daniel 3:8, 25, 26; Daniel 4:23, etc. (so also Targum Syriac). To circumscribe an adjective, especially in specification of the material: Daniel 2:38 thou art רֵאשָׁה דִּי דַהֲבָא the head of gold, Daniel 2:39; Daniel 3:1; Daniel 5:7, 16; Ezra 5:14; Ezra 6:4 +; as predicate Daniel 2:32 רֵאשֵׁהּ דִּי־דְב טָב his head (was) of fine gold, Daniel 2:33; Daniel 7:19; with a pronoun Daniel 2:20 wisdom and might דּי־לֵהּ הִיא are his; compare Daniel 6:27 וּמַלְכוּתֵהּ דִּי־לָא תִתְחַבַּל his kingdom (is one) which shall not be destroyed, Daniel 7:14. — See further K§ 81.
3. as conjunction (compare אֲשֶׁר 8):
a. that (quod), after verbs of knowing, Daniel 2:8, 9, seeing Daniel 2:45; Daniel 3:27, hearing Daniel 5:14, etc.; introducing the subject of a sentence,... דִּיspan...יְדִיצַ Daniel 3:18; Ezra 4:13; Daniel 2:47 ⬩⬩⬩מִן־קְשֹׁט דִּי True is it that... (compare אָמְנָם כִּי Job 12:2).
b. = in that, inasmuch as, whereas: Daniel 2:41 and whereas (דִּי) thou sawest, etc.... it shall be a divided kingdom, Daniel 2:43; Daniel 4:20; Daniel 4:23; as a connecting link = seeing that, because, for (compare אֲשֶׁר 8c) Daniel 2:9, 20b; Daniel 2:23b; Daniel 2:47b; Daniel 4:15; Daniel 6:24b.
c. that (ut), after verbs of asking Daniel 2:16, commanding Daniel 3:10, 29, expressing a purpose Daniel 4:3; Daniel 5:15; Ezra 4:15; Ezra 6:10 +; דִּי לָא that not (ne) Daniel 2:18; Daniel 3:28; Daniel 6:18 (on דִּי לְמָה lest Ezra 7:23, see מה).
d. prefixed to direct narr. (like כִּי 1b, and sometimes אֲשֶׁר 8a γ, and ὅτι recitativum), Daniel 2:25 and said thus unto him דִּיהַֿשְׁכַּחַת (that) I have found, etc., Daniel 5:7; Daniel 6:6; Daniel 6:14.
4. with prepositions and other prefixes:
a. כּֽדִי (like Hebrew כַּאֲשֶׁר; so Egyptian Aramaic כזי, Palmyrene, Nabataean כדי, Lzb293 SACG1 62, 63 Cooke369b RES:361; Targum כַּד, Syriac Db);
a. according as, Daniel 2:43;
b. so soon as, when, Daniel 3:7; Daniel 5:20; Daniel 6:11; Daniel 6:15.
b. מִןדִּֿי :
a. because that, Daniel 3:22; Ezra 5:12 (compare מֵאֲשֶׁר Isaiah 43:4);
b. from (the time) that, after (ex quo), Daniel 4:23; Ezra 4:23.
c. עַד דִּי until, Daniel 2:9, 34; Daniel 4:30; Daniel 7:22; = ere that Daniel 6:25.
d. עַל דִּי Daniel 3:19 is not a conjunction, but means above that which...
e. for עַל דִּבְרַת דִּי and כָּל־קְָבֵל דִּי see [דִּבְרָה] and קֳבֵל.

Unchecked Copy BoxDan 6:1 -

[fn]It seemed good to Darius that he set 120 satraps over the kingdom, that they would be in charge of the whole kingdom,

Unchecked Copy BoxDan 6:2 - and over them three commissioners (of whom H1768 Daniel was one), that these satraps might be accountable to them, and that the king might not suffer loss.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 6:3 - Then this Daniel began distinguishing himself [fn]among the commissioners and satraps because H1768 an extraordinary spirit was in him, and the king planned to set him over the entire kingdom.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 6:4 - Then the commissioners and satraps began seeking to find a ground of accusation against Daniel in regard to matters of the kingdom; but they were not able to find any ground of accusation or evidence of corruption, inasmuch H1768 as he was faithful, and no negligence or corruption was to be found in him.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 6:5 - Then these men said, “We will not find any ground of accusation against this Daniel unless we find it against him with regard to the law of his God.”
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 6:7 - “All the commissioners of the kingdom, the prefects and the satraps, the high officials and the governors have counseled together that the king should establish a statute and enforce an injunction that anyone who H1768 seeks to make a petition [fn]to any god or man besides you, O king, for thirty days, shall be cast into the lions’ [fn]den.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 6:8 - “Now, O king, establish the injunction and [fn]sign the written document so H1768 that H1768 it may not be changed, according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which H1768 [fn]may not be revoked.”
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 6:10 -

Now when H1768 Daniel knew that the written document was signed, he entered his house (now in his roof chamber he had windows open toward Jerusalem); and he continued kneeling on his knees three times a day, praying and giving thanks before his God, [fn]as he had been doing previously.

Unchecked Copy BoxDan 6:12 - Then they came near and said before the king concerning the king’s injunction, “Did you not sign an injunction that any man who H1768 seeks to make a petition [fn]to any god or man besides you, O king, for thirty days, is to be cast into the lions’ den?” The king answered and said, “The word is certain, according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which H1768 [fn]may not be revoked.”
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 6:13 - Then they answered and said before the king, “Daniel, who H1768 is one of the [fn]exiles from Judah, pays no attention to you, O king, or to the injunction which H1768 you signed, but keeps seeking to make his petition three times a day.”
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 6:14 -

Then, as soon H1768 as the king heard this word, he was greatly distressed within himself and set his mind on saving Daniel; and even until sunset he kept exerting himself to deliver him.

Unchecked Copy BoxDan 6:15 - Then these men came [fn]by agreement to the king and said to the king, “Know, O king, that it is a law of the Medes and Persians that no injunction or statute which H1768 the king establishes may be changed.”
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 6:16 -

Then the king said the word, and Daniel was brought in and cast into the lions’ den. The king answered and said to Daniel, “[fn]Your God whom H1768 you constantly serve will Himself save you.”

Unchecked Copy BoxDan 6:17 - And a stone was brought and placed over the mouth of the den; and the king sealed it with his own signet ring and with the signet rings of his nobles so H1768 that H1768 nothing would be changed in regard to Daniel.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 6:19 -

Then the king arose at dawn, at the break of day, and hurriedly went to the lions’ den.

Unchecked Copy BoxDan 6:20 - When he had come near the den to Daniel, he cried out with a troubled voice. The king answered and said to Daniel, “Daniel, servant of the living God, has your God, whom H1768 you constantly serve, been able to save you from the lions?”
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 6:22 - “My God sent His angel and shut the lions’ mouths, and they have not harmed me, inasmuch H1768 as [fn]I was found innocent before Him; and also [fn]toward you, O king, I have done no harm.”
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 6:23 - Then the king was greatly pleased and said for Daniel to be taken up out of the den. So Daniel was taken up out of the den, and no harm whatsoever was found on him because H1768 he had believed in his God.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 6:24 - The king then said the word, and they brought those men who H1768 had [fn]brought charges against Daniel, and they cast them, their children, and their wives into the lions’ den; and they had not reached the bottom of the den before H1768 the lions overpowered them and crushed all their bones.

Unchecked Copy BoxDan 6:26 - [fn]I make a decree that in all the [fn]dominion of my kingdom, men are to fear and be in dread before the God of Daniel;

For He is the living God and enduring forever,

And His kingdom is one which H1768 will not be destroyed,

And His [fn]dominion will be unto the end.

Unchecked Copy BoxDan 6:27 -

“He saves and delivers and does signs and wonders

In heaven and on earth,

Who H1768 has also saved Daniel from the [fn]power of the lions.”

Unchecked Copy BoxDan 7:4 - “The first was like a lion and had the wings of an eagle. I kept looking until H1768 its wings were plucked, and it was lifted up from the ground and made to stand on two feet like a man; and a heart of a man was given to it.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 7:6 - “After this I kept looking, and behold, another one, like a leopard, which H1768 had on its [fn]back four wings of a bird; the beast also had four heads, and [fn]dominion was given to it.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 7:7 - “After this I kept looking in the night visions, and behold, a fourth beast, fearsome and terrifying and extraordinarily strong; and it had large iron teeth. It devoured and crushed and trampled down the remainder with its feet; and it was different from all the beasts that were before it, and it had ten horns.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 7:9 -

“I kept looking

Until H1768 thrones were set up,

And the Ancient of Days was seated;

His clothing was like white snow

And the hair of His head like pure wool.

His throne was [fn]ablaze with fire,

Its wheels were a burning fire.

Unchecked Copy BoxDan 7:10 -

“A river of fire was flowing

And coming out from before Him;

Thousands upon thousands were attending Him,

And myriads upon myriads were standing before Him;

The court sat,

And the books were opened.

Unchecked Copy BoxDan 7:11 -

“Then I kept looking because of the sound of the great boastful words which H1768 the horn was speaking; I kept looking until H1768 the beast was killed, and its body was destroyed and given to the burning [fn]fire.

Unchecked Copy BoxDan 7:14 -

“And to Him was given [fn]dominion,

Glory, and a kingdom,

That all the peoples, nations, and men of every tongue

Might serve Him.

His [fn]dominion is an everlasting [fn]dominion

Which H1768 will not be taken away;

And His kingdom is one

Which H1768 will not be destroyed.

Unchecked Copy BoxDan 7:20 - and the meaning of the ten horns that were on its head and the other horn which H1768 came up and before which three of them fell, namely, that horn which had eyes and a mouth speaking great boasts and [fn]which was larger in appearance than its associates.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 7:22 - until H1768 the Ancient of Days came and judgment was given in favor of the saints of the Highest One, and the season arrived when the saints took possession of the kingdom.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 7:23 -

[fn]At this point the matter of this revelation ended. As for me, Daniel, my thoughts were greatly alarming me, and the [fn]splendor of my face changed, but I kept the matter in my heart.”
