# General Information: In verses 34-37 Nebuchadnezzar speaks in the first person to describe his response to God. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-123person]]) # my sanity returned to me Here his sanity is spoken of as if it was able to return by its own power. AT: "I became sane again" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-personification]]) # my majesty and splendor returned to me Here his majesty and splendor are spoken of as if they were able to return by their own power. AT: "I regained my majesty and my splendor again" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-personification]]) # majesty and splendor These words mean basically the same thing and emphasize the greatness of his glory. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-doublet]]) # my noblemen sought my favor "my noblemen requested my help again" # I was brought ... greatness was given to me Here "throne" refers to his authority to rule. This can be stated in active form. AT: "I returned to rule my kingdom again, and I received even more greatness" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-activepassive]]) # praise, extol, and honor All three of these words have basically the same meaning and emphasize how greatly he praised God. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-doublet]]) # who walk in their own pride This phrase uses "walk" to refer to the person who acts proud. AT: "who are proud" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-idiom]]) # translationWords * [[rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/majesty]] * [[rc://en/tw/dict/bible/other/splendor]] * [[rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/glory]] * [[rc://en/tw/dict/bible/other/kingdom]] * [[rc://en/tw/dict/bible/other/counselor]] * [[rc://en/tw/dict/bible/other/noble]] * [[rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/favor]] * [[rc://en/tw/dict/bible/other/throne]] * [[rc://en/tw/dict/bible/other/nebuchadnezzar]] * [[rc://en/tw/dict/bible/other/praise]] * [[rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/honor]] * [[rc://en/tw/dict/bible/other/king]] * [[rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/heaven]] * [[rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/works]] * [[rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/justice]] * [[rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/humble]] * [[rc://en/tw/dict/bible/other/proud]]
