Lord in the Hebrew Old
Testament: Adon and Adonai
Adon, Strong’s number 113, is used 335 times in the
Hebrew Old Testament. Translated lord,
master, sir, and owner, adon is from an unused Hebrew root that
meant “to rule.” Kings, fathers, husbands, angels, and messengers from God are
all referred to in the Old Testament as lords
with the Hebrew word adon. In the
King James Version of the Bible, adon
as lord is generally printed with a
lower case l.
Adonai, Strong’s number 136, occurs 432 times in the Bible
(The Saint Petersburg Codex). It occurs 134 times as a deliberate exchange for Jehovah by ancient Hebrew scribes, and
it occurs 297 times as part of the biblical phrase, “Adonai Jehovih.” It occurs
one additional time in Micah 1:2. Adonai
is also translated lord, but the King
James Version translates Adonai with
a capital L.
Of the 335 times it appears in the Old Testament, adon appears 105 times in the plural
form (given below as adonim for
simplicity). Of these 105 uses of the plural, about 100 (depending on the text
chosen) are uses of the Hebrew plural intensive, also called the honorific
plural. That is, the plural form of lord, adonim, is used when only one lord is
intended. This plural intensive is also part of the Hebrew word for the one
true God, Elohim (Notice the similar –im ending; both Elohim and adonim are
plural forms.). Many Hebrew scholars, such as Gesenius, call the use of the
plural form for a singular noun the pluralis
maestatis. E.W. Bullinger in his Figures of Speech used in the Bible discusses a related figure of
speech, the heterosis of number (p. 529) in which words are used in the plural
in places that grammatically demand a singular use. This is done to emphasize
great excellence or magnitude. With adonim and Elohim, the use of the plural
intensive is so frequent it is part of the grammar and idiom of Hebrew itself.
E.W. Bullinger’s Appendix
4 to his Companion Bible reads (in
Part VII, subsection 3) that the honorific plural of adon (Strong’s 113), adonim,
is “never used of man.” However, unless by this Dr. Bullinger means that no man
addresses another man with the plural intensive, perhaps Appendix 4 should read
that Adonai (Strong’s 136) is never
used of man. Bullinger’s appendix 4 goes on to note that the use of the plural adonim to refer to a singular lord is reserved for one who is lord of
what he owns, to one who is, as owner, a supreme lord. This is correct. When adon, Strong’s 113, is used in the
plural of a singular subject, it is often translated owner. However, there are a numerous places where the owner referred
to honorifically as adonim is human.
There are many exceptions in the use of a plural
intensive of adon, adonim, for God alone.
Of course the Hebrew plural is used
of men when more than one lord is referenced (marked 1pl below). However, in Gen 42:30 & 33, for instance, Joseph’s
brothers refer to Joseph not as the adon
of the land, but with a Hebrew plural intensive, as adonim. Joseph is called, its “adonim” or supreme lord. In Genesis 45:8 Joseph refers to himself as the
supreme lord, the “adonim,” of Pharaoh’s household. The power of the Hebrew
plural intensive for Lord, when referring to God, is in emphasizing the
absolute scope of God’s dominion. Where Joseph’s supreme lordship is limited to
Nevertheless, to completely understand the uses of
the Hebrew words for lord, the
similitude between one of God’s titles as Adonim
and the earthly uses of adonim must
be understood. Although Joseph had concealed his true identity, his brothers
understood his position of authority in
Likewise, in Gen 39:20, the first occurrence of the
plural intensive with lord, “adonim,” in reference to a man is of Potiphar, the
Egyptian who bought Joseph as a slave. This intensive use of adon for lord indicates a master who has the power of life or of death over
his servant, a master who has legal ownership of his servant, and a master who
is a lord over others who also exercise authority. The uses of ADONIM below are given in all capital
letters to covey the emphatic power of the intensive Hebrew plural.
This final qualification for one to be called a
supreme lord, and adonim, is that this ruler exercises authority
over other rulers. This means that the head of any household could be
considered a lord of lords. Each member of a household has a specific area of
responsibility over which he or she holds sway. The household’s master or
steward, or concierge, is the lord over all (his
house). These exceptions in the use of the Hebrew plural intensive for God
alone are easily understood based on the meaning of the Hebrew plural intensive
itself. All of these exceptions are marked below with “1” for reference.
Linguistically, it is important to note that in Gen
43:20; 44:5, 7-9, 18 -20 and 22, when Joseph’s brethren speak to him
directly, they refer to him as adon,
without the plural intensive. They are not addressing him according to his full
authority. They address him according to his immediate authority over them. The
plural intensive form of lord occurs
much less frequently with pronouns involving direct address (my, our). Hence, there
are a number of places in which adon,
rather than adonim is used of Jehovah
God. These uses are also marked below with “2” for reference.
The first sub-category of the use of Adon rather than Adonim for God is related to the supreme quality of God’s dominion.
For instance, God is “lord, adon, of
all the earth.” There are six instances of the phrase “the Lord (adon— singular) of the whole earth” in
the Old Testament. These have been marked with “2a.” E.W. Bullinger in Appendix
4 to his Companion Bible (VII. 1)
associates these uses of adon for God
with His lordship in the earth. When God refers to Himself as master, or adon, in accordance with the covenant of
Moses, these verses are marked “2b.” God is never addressed directly
as “my Adon.”
God’s people, as a body, address Him as Adonim in Nehemiah 8:10. Likewise, the
Psalmist, in Psalm 8, on behalf of
The Sopherim
and Systems for Transmitting the Bible
The Sopherim,
the medieval scribes associated with the Hebrew text, in 134 specifically
listed places, noted that the original Hebrew word Jehovah was found in the scriptures as Adonai. This list can be found in E.W. Bullinger’s Companion Bible, Appendix
32. Those specific uses of Lord
have been noted below as: “Sopherim – Jehovah.” The Sopherim were meticulous about textual transmission. If they were
conscious, to a fault, of the sacred quality of God’s presence through belief
in His name, they, nevertheless, handled the words of the Creator with the fear
and reverence which is right. The system of marginal notation that involved
counting each and every character copied down to the jots and tittles is beyond
compare in medieval times. The Great Isaiah Scroll found among the Dead Sea
Scrolls has, without vowel points, many of the substitutions of adonai for Jehovah. Hence, the Sopherim may have been listing places that adonai
accidentally crept into the ancient texts rather than noting places that they
randomly substituted “my lord” for God’s title, Jehovah.
The problem of the root meaning of Adonai is very technical because the
Hebrew spellings for “my lords” (yn:©doa] –Genesis 19:2), for
“my lord” (ynI©doa] –Genesis 23:6), and for “Adonai” is (yn"ëdoa]] –Genesis
18:31) are very similar. Only the vowel points (the
marks appearing above and underneath each of the three words above) distinguish
each of these Hebrew word forms. Additionally, the vowel points for the plural
form of my lords results in the same
pronunciation as Adonai. In Hebrew my
lords and Adonai are homonyms;
they are spelled differently but they sound exactly alike. The spelling change
in Adonai, the “t” shaped qamets that appears under the third letter (the nun or N) results in a different Hebrew diphthong with the yod (the last
letter). However, both Hebrew diphthongs are pronounced the same way.
Bullinger’s Appendix
4 says that Adonai (Strong’s 136)
is the product of the Hebrew vowels for Jehovah
being associated, via vowel points, with the Hebrew word adon. There seems, at first blush, to be little evidence for his
claim. Dr. C.D. Ginsburg, whose Introduction
to the Hebrew Bible E.W. Bullinger mentions in his own Appendices 30, 31,
32 and 33, writes that exactly the opposite occurred. Ginsburg wrote that the
vowel points for Adonai were, at
times, associated with Jehovah, while
at other times, the Hebrew vowel points for Elohim
(God) were associated with Jehovah
(see Ginsburg’s Introduction
of the Massoretico-critical edition of the Hebrew Bible 367-368). For this there seems to be significant evidence.
For instance, notice the spelling of Jehovah found in Exodus 4:10 (hw"hy>>). The vowel points
under the third letter (the T-like mark) agree with the vowel pointing under
the third letter of Adonai (yn"doa]] — also from the Exodus 4:10: “And Moses said unto JHVH, O my Adonai”). On
the other hand, the vowel point under the third letter of the form of the Jehovah found in Ezekiel 39:25 (hwIëhy>) agrees with the vowel
point under the third letter in Elohim
(~yhiêl{a/) as found in Genesis 1:2. This change in the vowel pointing
under Jehovah to agree with Elohim occurs throughout the Old Testament
wherever the Hebrew phrase “Adonai
Jehovih” is found.
Still, Dr. Bullinger may be correct about the origin
of adonai from the use of the vowels
of Jehovah with the plural form of adon, for Dr. Ginsburg’s own discussion
of the vowel points accompanying proper names with syllables of Jehovah within
(p.
369-374) convincingly shows that the standard vowel points for Jehovah (hw"hy>) are ancient and reasonable. Hence, the vowel points for
Jehovah, even if similar to that of adonai, do not seem to have been derived from adonai. Indeed, the vowel points of adonai may be no
more intrinsic to its pronunciation and meaning than the odd vowel points for Jehovah in the phrase Adonai Jehovih. For instance, the only place in
the entire Bible that adonai,
standing alone, was not explicitly introduced by the Sopherim
is in the second use in Micah 1:2. Otherwise, the only other uses of adonai in the entire Old Testament are
in the phrase, Adonai Jehovih, where Jehovah, too, is oddly pointed with the
vowel points associated with Elohim (hwIëhy>).

Conclusion: Adonai Jehovih
is vowel point coded. What should be spoken (qere) is My Supreme Adon Elohim. What should be read (ketiv) is Jehovah Elohim.
Likewise, Adonai is coded. What
should be spoken (qere) is my Supreme Lord. What should be read (ketiv) is Jehovah.
How odd is the pointing of Jehovah
to agree with Elohim? Of the over 6,000
times Jehovah occurs in the Old
Testament, the vowel pointing associated with Elohim occurs only in the 293
places in which Jehovah follows Adonai and in four additional occurrences
where the word order is inverted (Psalm 109:21; 140:7; 141:8; Habakkuk 3:19). Furthermore, in each of these 297 uses of Adonai Jehovih, the Aramaic Targums read
Jehovah Elohim. Although the Targums
are inconsistent enough in their paraphrasing of the Old Testament Hebrew that
one dare not rely on them, they are consistent enough that one cannot entirely
ignore their testimony. It is possible, then, that every use of adonai was part of a code employed by the ancient scribal
community to “safe guard” the divine name.
Hence, E.W. Bullinger
may well have been correct; the consonant structure of adon (“my lord”) may well have been pointed with the vowel points
of Jehovah to “safe guard” the divine
name in 431 places. The vowel points signified the correct text, what was written
(ketiv), and
the use of adon signified the
traditional reading that the rabbinical codes required— what was read (qere). When
the biblical phrase Jehovah Elohim
occurred, the name was still “protected” because the word read was not really Jehovah. Instead, because it was vowel
pointed with the vowels of Elohim, it was only a meaningless mispronunciation
of Jehovah. If such a system did
exist, it only existed with any consistency in the scrolls of Ezekiel. If such
a system did exist, then every use of Adonai
in the Bible, except for one, can be tied to some sort of scribal tradition. It
could be argued, therefore, that the Adonai
is not of any Divine intent or authority and that the Targum readings should be
preferred. All uses of adonai
should be read as Jehovah and spoken in a manner consistent with C.D.
Gingrich’s Ginsburg’s Introduction
of the Massoretico-critical edition of the Hebrew Bible (p.
369-374).
The documentation in the margins of the St.
Petersburg Codex (the Masoretic text also known as L or the Leningrad Codex) was
also the first known system of replacement of the Divine Name beyond major
historical dispute; however, it is not the oldest known system. While the St. Petersburg
Codex is dated to 916 A.D., the Dead
Sea Scrolls, which have been variously dated to 100 B.C., include the Great Isaiah Scroll. The
Great Isaiah Scroll also has readings (ketiv,
rather than qere) for adonai. A couple
of these bear editorial marks and appear almost as marginal notes above the
lines. Some of these readings and marginal notes in the Isaiah scroll do not
entirely agree with the Massora of the Petersburg Codex. The differences are
noted below. Ginsburg believed that the text of Massora took shape the around
80 B.C. (see p.
305). It is possible that the Massoric notes followed a certain formal,
legal, historic transmission of the text, but that the privately owned
collections of the Essenes did not. When the Dead Sea Scrolls support the
Massoric note on the text, this is abbreviated “DSS – Jehovah”. When the Dead
Sea Scrolls do not support a note on the text, this noted “DSS – adonai”.
It is also possible there were once other
systems that involved the replacement of the Divine name in the Septuagint as
early as the second or third centuries A.D. These two web pages, Yahweh's name in the
Dead Sea Scrolls (http://www.eliyah.com/yhwhdss.html) and Tetragrammaton Found in
Earliest Copies of the Septuagint (http://www.eliyah.com/lxx.html) each
show the abbreviation for the Tetragrammaton given in a formal ancient Hebrew
script right in the midst of the Greek translation of Psalms and the
"minor" prophets. Phillip Comfort on
page 209 of Encountering the
Manuscripts: An Introduction to New Testament Paleography gives an
impressive account of the plausible development of a system in which KY with a bar was used to specifically
replace Jehovah in the Greek translation of the Old Testament Hebrew. A few of
these uses, as found in ancient versions of the Hexpala, have been noted below.
Whenever man comes up with any system, it will be
fallible. For instance, when the King James Version translates Jehovah as LORD, it uses all capital letters. When the King James Version
translates adonai
as Lord, it capitalizes the L. While this is an absolutely
unnecessary system, it is also very fallible. In a number of places, the King
James Version translators put themselves in a dilemma from which they
apparently had little recourse. Their use of LORD in place of Jehovah in the Hebrew text meant that
when the Hebrew text used Adonai Jehovih,
Lord Jehovah, the King James Translators had a problem. They could have
translated this phrase as Lord LORD, but this would have been embarrassingly
redundant. They chose instead to translate this as Lord GOD. The use of all
capitals for God is the signal to a
careful reader that Adonai Jehovih (Old Testament
phrase 23) is in the original Hebrew. Most casual readers of the Bible have
no idea what the logic of this special system of capitalization means. These
have also been clarified below. The actual Hebrew text, before the Sopherim, and before the scribes of 80 AD
decided to safeguard the Divine Name, would have read in, in English, Jehovah Elohim.
The Hebrew oral translations or interpretations of
the Old Testament, the Targums, are not of Divine authority. However, Josephus’
history gives evidence
that these were committed to writing from times as early as the 1st century A.D.
Other Targums were recorded in the Middle Ages. There
is little evidence that any of the Targums we now have were recorded any earlier
than the fifth century
AD. Because there is so little information available about the methods and
principles that guided each Aramaic paraphrase, the evidence from readings of
the patristic documents is of more authority for New Testament study than the
Targums are for the Old Testament. The Targums, though, were not at all
backwards about using abbreviations for Jehovah or in putting the Tetragrammaton
itself into the Aramaic scripts. Hence, since the Targums may well be accurately
expressing texts no longer available to us today when they have Jehovah in place of adonai.
It is of note that Jehovah is represented, predominantly, in the Aramaic Targums as
YWY, YYY, or with three dots (corresponding to the four dots of the Hebrew tetrapuncta). The Y in Aramaic may represent a vowel sound (long e; long i)
and a consonant sound (like the ‘y’ in ‘yes’ or a ‘j’ sound). Likewise, the W
in Aramaic may represent a vowel sound (long o, or u) and a
consonant sound (w). Hence, it is possible that some Targum writers gave three
vowel sounds representing the three syllables of YeHoWeH (YHY) while others
represented the three syllables without revealing actual vowel sounds (YYY and …).
Whenever and wherever man has failed, the story of
God’s word is His success on our behalf; so also with the transmission of the
text of the Holy Bible. The Heavenly Father in His foreknowledge has magnified
His word above all of His name (Psalm 138:2). He has
purified the words of men, the words of earth “seven times” (Psalm 12:6). His
word lives and abides forever (I Peter 1:25). Because God is no respecter of
persons, when we approach His word with believing, we can receive all His
perfection with the clarity of any of the ancients. By allowing God’s word to
speak for itself, by believing that His word of truth is perfect and can, in no
way contradict itself, by searching for His divine markings in figures of
speech and in His use of ancient idioms, the barriers of man’s failures in the
transmission of the ancient texts fall away. That is the purpose of this
website. In the search for the accuracy of God’s word in the uses of Jehovah,
LORD, and Lord Jesus Christ, may II Timothy 2:15 be our the password and
Hebrews 11:6 our key. See the note that corresponds to Genesis 39:16 below for
an example of the power of God revealed in the scriptures themselves. The
consonant only Hebrew text speaks for itself on its very vowel points. No
student of the scripture need to fall under the dominion of men, no matter how
well intended. God’s power lives in His Word to make Himself
known in the smallest details forever. As it is written in Matthew 5:18: “For
verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot (yod) or one tittle (the
decorative spur at the tip of the tittle) shall in no wise pass from the law,
till all be fulfilled.”

Although Christ in glory is revealed coming from
the heavens as Lord of Lords and King of Kings (Revelation 17:14), and,
therefore, could be addressed as an adonim,
his prophetic title in the Old Testament is adon.
This is plain from Psalm 110:1a: “The LORD (Jehovah) said unto my Lord
(adon— singular)...” David’s adon is the Son of God. The messenger of
the new covenant is called adon in
Mal 3:1b: “…and the Lord (adon—
singular), whom ye seek, shall suddenly come to his temple, even the messenger
of the covenant, whom ye delight in: behold, he shall come, saith the LORD of
hosts.”

Targum Representations
of the Tetragrammaton
The Hebrew Old Testament was written only with the consonants of Hebrew words. The vowel points were not supplied until the Middle Ages. Hence, it’s representation of Jehovah is given in the form of four consonants YHWH. Curiously, the various scribes of the Aramaic Targums, with only one exception, used only three letters to represent the Tetragrammaton. The three consonants, or in some cases only notations may represent the three syllables or secret vowel points of the Divine name.
The various representations of YHWH are: YWY, YYY, and . . . (three dots). The use of YWY is the most suggestive. Allowing for phonetics in this application to Hebrew or Aramaic speech, the result is very close to Yehowah. No matter what one’s theory of this ancient scribal practice, it should be connected with the use of IOA for the Divine name in the Septuagint Greek found in PHeied 1359 or in 4Q120.
There are two exceptions to the Aramaic use of three notations for the four letters of the Tetragrammaton. The first is Targum Jonathan’s substitution of YY for Jehovah in Joshua, Judges and 2 Samuel. Curiously, these substitutions, unlike all of the others, are vowel pointed for e and a (יְיָ ). Reading this directly as YeYah makes little sense. Perhaps this is vowel coded for the sound of the first and last syllable of Jehovah, and like many instances of the vowel pointing in the in MT, the middle vowel is omitted as yet another code to “protect” the Divine name. The second exception is the use of the Tetragrammaton itself in the Targum to Job and to Psalms.

1 Genesis 39:3 And his master (ADONIM) saw that the LORD was with him, and that the LORD made all
that he did to prosper in his hand.
1 Genesis 39:7 And it came to pass after these things, that his master's
(ADONIM) wife cast her eyes
upon Joseph; and she said, Lie with me.
1 Gen 39:8 But he
refused, and said unto his master’s (ADONIM) wife, Behold, my master wotteth not what is with me in the
house, and he hath committed all that he hath to my hand;
1 Genesis 39:16 And she laid up his garment by her, until his lord
(ADONIM) came home.
* Potiphar legally owned Joseph because he had purchased him, redeemed him,
from the Midianites. This use with Potiphar is an important example of the
widespread biblical use of “Adonim” with human masters. The originally
inspired, consonant-only text, would read exactly the same for my lord, my lords and Adonai;
however, the consonants for his master
with the plural of majesty (wyn"ßdoa] Gen 39:16) does differ from the singular form,
even without the addition of vowel points. The fifth consonant, the yod, only
appears in the plural spelling of ‘the lord of him’. Hence, “his masters” is
the literal reading while “his supreme lord” is the sense when the plural of
majesty is understood.
1 Genesis 39:19 ¶ And it came to pass, when his master (ADONIM) heard the words of his wife, which she spake unto him, saying, After this

intensive –Lord) of the country, said unto us, Hereby shall I know that ye are

of your households, and be gone:
Gen 43:20 And said, O sir, (adon— singular) we came
indeed down at the first time to buy food:

This is
a challenging text. Gideon is speaking to an angel in Judges 6:13; however,
6:14 omits the angel, apparently because Gideon has accepted that the angel
represents and speaks for Jehovah. Because the Sopherim
list this as one of the occasions in which adonai stands for Jehovah, the text that includes Jehovah must be ancient. The additional
support from Targum Jonathan, even though incomplete, for the reading of Jehovah here indicates that the reader
is to understand that Gideon now responding having directly to Jehovah God.
When the God of Covenant commands Gideon in 6:14 to “Go in this thy might…,” to
what does this refer to? Even Gideon
does not know. “This” does not refer to visible armor. “This” does refer to a
visible army or a visible rank among a visible army. However, for the first
time in Judges 6, and in Gideon’s life, the God of Covenant speaks directly to
Gideon. “This” refers to the holy spirit that has come
upon Gideon even while the angel spoke to him. In the Old Testament, this
moment in a man of God’s life is often highlighted. Consider Isaiah’s calling
or Samuel’s first recognition of the voice of God. In Moses’ life the burning
bush marks the moment the spirit of God comes upon him. In Saul’s life it is
when he follows Samuel’s instructions that lead him to prophesy. Judges 6:11-16
marks the moment in Gideon’s life when he received the spiritual authority to
lead, judge, and deliver
Gideon
backtracks in Judges 6:17 and, as he will do repeatedly throughout Judges 6-8,
asks for a sign. In 6:17 Gideon talks to the angel rather than Jehovah God.
Nevertheless, recognizing the meaning of adonai as Jehovah
from the list of the Sopherim,
and understanding that the Targum reading establishes the list, sheds great
light on the Old Testament record of Gideon. “This” is the Spirit of the LORD.
This same understated and elliptical reference occurs in Acts 2:16. In Acts
2:16 “this,” by a metonymy of the part for the whole, refers to speaking in
tongues as the evidence of power from on high as spoken of (incompletely) in
Hosea. In Judges 6:17 the voice of the God of Covenant, the word of the LORD
Gideon received directly from God, not the angel, is the evidence to Gideon
that the Spirit of the LORD has come upon him.

thou shalt bring in the fruits, that thy master’s (ADONIM) son may have food to eat: but Mephibosheth thy master's
(ADONIM) son shall eat bread alway at
my table. Now Ziba had fifteen sons and twenty servants

said, I will saddle me an ass, that I may ride thereon, and go to the king;
because thy servant is lame.
2Sa 19:27 And he hath slandered thy servant unto my lord
(adon— singular) the king; but my lord
(adon— singular) the king is as an
angel of God: do therefore what is good in thine eyes.
2Sa 19:28 For all of my father's house were but dead men before my lord
(adon— singular) the king: yet didst
thou set thy servant among them that did eat at thine own table. What right therefore have I yet to cry any more unto the king?

Mephibosheth said unto the king, Yea, let him take all, forasmuch as my lord
(adon— singular) the king is come
again in peace unto his own house.
2Sa 19:35 I am

the king?
2Sa 19:37 Let

1 Psa 45:11 So
shall the king greatly desire thy beauty: for he is thy Lord (ADONIM); and worship thou him. Targum uses Lord. This is important for New Testament studies in Aramaic. The
Aramaic form here is matched with the Hebrew plural intensive as applied to a
husband, a king, a tupos of Christ.
The reverence, here translated worship, is of the husband by the bride; so also
those of the church of the bride for the Messiah.

Dan 1:10 And the prince of the eunuchs said unto Daniel, I fear my lord
(adon— singular) the king, who hath
appointed your meat and your drink: for why should he see your faces worse
liking than the children which are of your sort? then
shall ye make me endanger my head to the king.
Daniel 2:10 The
Chaldeans answered before the king, and said, There is not a man upon the earth
that can shew the king's matter: therefore there is no king, lord
(rab—Aramaic, 7229), nor ruler
(shalliyt —Aramaic, 7990), that asked
such things at any magician, or astrologer, or Chaldean.
3 Daniel 2:47 The king answered unto Daniel, and said, Of a truth it is,
that your God is a God of gods, and a Lord (mare'—Aramaic 4756: singular construct) of kings, and
a revealer of secrets, seeing thou couldest reveal this secret.
Daniel
4:19 ¶ Then Daniel, whose name was Belteshazzar, was astonied for one
hour, and his thoughts troubled him. The king spake, and said, Belteshazzar,
let not the dream, or the interpretation thereof, trouble thee. Belteshazzar
answered and said, My lord (mare'—Aramaic 4756: with 1st
person suffix), the dream be to them that hate thee, and the interpretation thereof to
thine enemies
Daniel 4:24 This is the interpretation, O king, and this is the decree
of the most High, which is come upon my lord (mare'—Aramaic 4756: with 1st person suffix) the king
2a Daniel 5:23
But hast lifted up thyself against the Lord (mare'—Aramaic 4756: singular construct) of heaven; and they have
brought the vessels of his house before thee, and thou, and thy lords, thy
wives, and thy concubines, have drunk wine in them; and thou hast praised the
gods of silver, and gold, of brass, iron, wood, and stone, which see not, nor
hear, nor know: and the God in whose hand thy breath is, and whose are all thy
ways, hast thou not glorified:

behold, one like the similitude of the sons of men touched my lips: then I

Dan 10:17 For how can the servant of this my lord (adon— singular) talk with this my lord

Dan 10:19 And
said, O man greatly beloved, fear not: peace be unto thee, be strong, yea, be

strengthened me.

heard, but I understood not: then said I, O my Lord (adon— to a man “clothed in linem,” an
angel), what shall be the end of these things?

Ephraim provoked him to anger most bitterly: therefore shall he leave his blood
