Ezra 5:3 אָמְרִ֣ין [they were] saying

At that time Tattenai the governor of the region west of the Euphrates, Shethar-bozenai, and their associates went to the Jews and asked, “Who authorized you to rebuild this temple and restore this structure?”

Ezra 5:4 אֲמַ֣רְנָא we said

They also asked, “What are the names of the men who are constructing this building?”

Ezra 5:9 אֲמַ֣רְנָא we said

So we questioned the elders and asked, “Who authorized you to rebuild this temple and restore this structure?”

Ezra 5:11 לְמֵמַ֑ר to say

And this is the answer they returned: “We are servants of the God of heaven and earth, and we are rebuilding the temple that was built many years ago, which a great king of Israel built and completed.

Ezra 5:15 וַאֲמַר־ and he said

and instructed, ‘Take these articles, put them in the temple in Jerusalem, and let the house of God be rebuilt on its original site.’

Jeremiah 10:11 תֵּאמְר֣וּן you will say

Thus you are to tell them: “These gods, who have made neither the heavens nor the earth, will perish from this earth and from under these heavens.”

Daniel 2:4 אֱמַ֥ר tell!

Then the astrologers answered the king in Aramaic, “O king, may you live forever! Tell your servants the dream, and we will give the interpretation.”

Daniel 2:5 וְאָמַ֣ר and [was] saying

The king replied to the astrologers, “My word is final: If you do not tell me the dream and its interpretation, you will be cut into pieces and your houses will be reduced to rubble.

Daniel 2:7 וְאָמְרִ֑ין יֵאמַ֥ר and [they were] saying, let him tell

They answered a second time, “Let the king tell the dream to his servants, and we will give the interpretation.”

Daniel 2:8 וְאָמַ֔ר and [was] saying

The king replied, “I know for sure that you are stalling for time because you see that my word is final.

Daniel 2:9 לְמֵאמַ֣ר אֱמַ֣רוּ to say, tell!

If you do not tell me the dream, there is only one decree for you. You have conspired to speak before me false and fraudulent words, hoping the situation will change. Therefore tell me the dream, and I will know that you can give me its interpretation.”

Daniel 2:10 וְאָ֣מְרִ֔ין and [they were] saying

The astrologers answered the king, “No one on earth can do what the king requests! No king, however great and powerful, has ever asked anything like this of any magician, enchanter, or astrologer.

Daniel 2:12 וַאֲמַר֙ and he said

This response made the king so angry and furious that he gave orders to destroy all the wise men of Babylon.

Daniel 2:15 וְאָמַ֗ר and [he was] saying

“Why is the decree from the king so harsh?” he asked. Then Arioch explained the situation to Daniel.

Daniel 2:20 וְאָמַ֔ר and [was] saying

and declared: “Blessed be the name of God forever and ever, for wisdom and power belong to Him.

Daniel 2:24 אֲמַר־ he said

Therefore Daniel went to Arioch, whom the king had appointed to destroy the wise men of Babylon, and said to him, “Do not execute the wise men of Babylon! Bring me before the king, and I will give him the interpretation.”

Daniel 2:25 אֲמַר־ he said

Arioch hastily brought Daniel before the king and said to him, “I have found a man among the exiles from Judah who will tell the king the interpretation.”

Daniel 2:26 וְאָמַ֣ר and [was] saying

The king responded to Daniel, whose name was Belteshazzar, “Are you able to tell me what I saw in the dream, as well as its interpretation?”

Daniel 2:27 וְאָמַ֑ר and [was] saying

Daniel answered the king, “No wise man, enchanter, medium, or magician can explain to the king the mystery of which he inquires.

Daniel 2:36 נֵאמַ֥ר we will tell

This was the dream; now we will tell the king its interpretation.

Daniel 2:46 אֲמַ֖ר he said

At this, King Nebuchadnezzar fell on his face, paid homage to Daniel, and ordered that an offering and incense be presented to him.

Daniel 2:47 וְאָמַ֗ר and [was] saying

The king said to Daniel, “Your God is truly the God of gods and Lord of kings, the Revealer of Mysteries, since you were able to reveal this mystery.”

Daniel 3:4 אָֽמְרִין֙ [they are] saying

Then the herald loudly proclaimed, “O people of every nation and language, this is what you are commanded:

Daniel 3:9 וְאָ֣מְרִ֔ין and [were] saying

saying to King Nebuchadnezzar, “O king, may you live forever!

Daniel 3:13 אֲמַר֙ he said

Then Nebuchadnezzar, furious with rage, summoned Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. So these men were brought before the king,

Daniel 3:14 וְאָמַ֣ר and [was] saying

and Nebuchadnezzar said to them, “Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, is it true that you do not serve my gods or worship the golden statue I have set up?

Daniel 3:16 וְאָמְרִ֖ין and [they were] saying

Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego replied to the king, “O Nebuchadnezzar, we have no need to answer you in this matter.

Daniel 3:19 וְאָמַר֙ and [he was] saying

At this, Nebuchadnezzar was filled with rage, and the expression on his face changed toward Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. He gave orders to heat the furnace seven times hotter than usual,

Daniel 3:20 אֲמַר֙ he said

and he commanded some mighty men of valor in his army to tie up Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego and throw them into the blazing fiery furnace.

Daniel 3:24 וְאָמַ֜ר וְאָמְרִין֙ and [he was] saying, and [they were] saying

Suddenly King Nebuchadnezzar jumped up in amazement and asked his advisers, “Did we not throw three men, firmly bound, into the fire?” “Certainly, O king,” they replied.

Daniel 3:25 וְאָמַ֗ר and [he was] saying

“Look!” he exclaimed. “I see four men, unbound and unharmed, walking around in the fire—and the fourth looks like a son of the gods!”

Daniel 3:26 וְאָמַ֗ר and [he was] saying

Then Nebuchadnezzar approached the door of the blazing fiery furnace and called out, “Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, servants of the Most High God, come out!” So Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego came out of the fire,

Daniel 3:28 וְאָמַ֗ר and [he was] saying

Nebuchadnezzar declared, “Blessed be the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, who has sent His angel and delivered His servants who trusted in Him. They violated the king’s command and risked their lives rather than serve or worship any god except their own God.

Daniel 3:29 יֵאמַ֤ר it will say

Therefore I decree that the people of any nation or language who say anything offensive against the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego will be cut into pieces and their houses reduced to rubble. For there is no other god who can deliver in this way.”

Daniel 4:7 אָמַ֤ר [was] saying

When the magicians, enchanters, astrologers, and diviners came in, I told them the dream, but they could not interpret it for me.

Daniel 4:8 אַמְרֵֽת׃ I said

But at last, into my presence came Daniel (whose name is Belteshazzar after the name of my god, and in whom is the spirit of the holy gods). And I told him the dream:

Daniel 4:9 אֱמַֽר׃ tell!

“O Belteshazzar, chief of the magicians, I know that the spirit of the holy gods is in you and that no mystery baffles you. So explain to me the visions I saw in my dream, and their interpretation.

Daniel 4:14 אָמַ֗ר [he was] saying

He called out in a loud voice: ‘Cut down the tree and chop off its branches; strip off its leaves and scatter its fruit. Let the beasts flee from under it, and the birds from its branches.

Daniel 4:18 אֱמַ֗ר tell!

This is the dream that I, King Nebuchadnezzar, saw. Now, Belteshazzar, tell me the interpretation, because none of the wise men of my kingdom can interpret it for me. But you are able, because the spirit of the holy gods is in you.”

Daniel 4:19 וְאָמַ֗ר וְאָמַ֔ר and [was] saying

For a time, Daniel, who was also known as Belteshazzar, was perplexed, and his thoughts alarmed him. So the king said, “Belteshazzar, do not let the dream or its interpretation alarm you.” “My lord,” replied Belteshazzar, “may the dream apply to those who hate you, and its interpretation to your enemies!

Daniel 4:23 וְאָמַר֩ and saying

And you, O king, saw a watcher, a holy one, coming down from heaven and saying: ‘Cut down the tree and destroy it, but leave the stump with its roots in the ground, with a band of iron and bronze around it, in the tender grass of the field. Let him be drenched with the dew of heaven, and graze with the beasts of the field till seven times pass him by.’

Daniel 4:26 אֲמַ֗רוּ they said

As for the command to leave the stump of the tree with its roots, your kingdom will be restored to you as soon as you acknowledge that Heaven rules.

Daniel 4:30 וְאָמַ֔ר and [was] saying

the king exclaimed, “Is this not Babylon the Great, which I myself have built as a royal residence by the might of my power and for the glory of my majesty?”

Daniel 4:31 אָֽמְרִין֙ [they are] saying

While the words were still in the king’s mouth, a voice came from heaven: “It is decreed to you, King Nebuchadnezzar, that the kingdom has departed from you.

Daniel 4:35 וְיֵ֥אמַר so he may say

All the peoples of the earth are counted as nothing, and He does as He pleases with the army of heaven and the peoples of the earth. There is no one who can restrain His hand or say to Him, ‘What have You done?’”

Daniel 5:2 אֲמַ֣ר׀ he said

Under the influence of the wine, Belshazzar gave orders to bring in the gold and silver vessels that Nebuchadnezzar his father had taken from the temple in Jerusalem, so that the king could drink from them, along with his nobles, his wives, and his concubines.

Daniel 5:7 וְאָמַ֣ר׀ and [was] saying

The king called out for the enchanters, astrologers, and diviners to be brought in, and he said to these wise men of Babylon, “Whoever reads this inscription and tells me its interpretation will be clothed in purple and have a gold chain placed around his neck, and he will be made the third highest ruler in the kingdom.”

Daniel 5:10 וַאֲמֶ֗רֶת and she said

Hearing the outcry of the king and his nobles, the queen entered the banquet hall. “O king, may you live forever!” she said. “Do not let your thoughts terrify you, or your face grow pale.

Daniel 5:13 וְאָמַ֣ר and [was] saying

So Daniel was brought before the king, who asked him, “Are you Daniel, one of the exiles my father the king brought from Judah?

Daniel 5:17 וְאָמַר֙ and [say] saying

In response, Daniel said to the king, “You may keep your gifts for yourself and give your rewards to someone else. Nevertheless, I will read the inscription for the king and interpret it for him.

Daniel 5:29 אֲמַ֣ר he said

Then Belshazzar gave the command, and they clothed Daniel in purple, placed a gold chain around his neck, and proclaimed him the third highest ruler in the kingdom.

Daniel 6:5 אָֽמְרִ֔ין [were] saying

Finally these men said, “We will never find any charge against this Daniel unless we find something against him concerning the law of his God.”

Daniel 6:6 אָמְרִ֣ין [they were] saying

So the administrators and satraps went together to the king and said, “O King Darius, may you live forever!

Daniel 6:12 וְאָמְרִ֥ין וְאָמַ֗ר and [were] saying, and saying

So they approached the king and asked about his royal decree: “Did you not sign a decree that for thirty days any man who petitions any god or man except you, O king, will be thrown into the den of lions?” The king replied, “According to the law of the Medes and Persians the order stands, and it cannot be repealed.”

Daniel 6:13 וְאָמְרִין֮ and [were] saying

Then they told the king, “Daniel, one of the exiles from Judah, shows no regard for you, O king, or for the decree that you have signed. He still makes his petition three times a day.”

Daniel 6:15 וְאָמְרִ֣ין and [were] saying

Then the men approached the king together and said to him, “Remember, O king, that by the law of the Medes and Persians no decree or ordinance established by the king can be changed.”

Daniel 6:16 אֲמַ֗ר וְאָמַ֣ר he said, and [was] saying

So the king gave the order, and they brought Daniel and threw him into the den of lions. The king said to Daniel, “May your God, whom you serve continually, deliver you!”

Daniel 6:20 וְאָמַ֣ר and [was] saying

When he reached the den, he cried out in a voice of anguish, “O Daniel, servant of the living God, has your God, whom you serve continually, been able to deliver you from the lions?”

Daniel 6:23 אֲמַ֖ר he said

The king was overjoyed and gave orders to lift Daniel out of the den, and when Daniel was lifted out of the den, no wounds whatsoever were found on him, because he had trusted in his God.

Daniel 6:24 וַאֲמַ֣ר and he said

At the command of the king, the men who had falsely accused Daniel were brought and thrown into the den of lions—they and their children and wives. And before they had reached the bottom of the den, the lions overpowered them and crushed all their bones.

Daniel 7:1 אֲמַֽר׃ he said

In the first year of the reign of Belshazzar over Babylon, Daniel had a dream, and visions passed through his mind as he lay on his bed. He wrote down the dream, and this is the summary of his account.

Daniel 7:2 וְאָמַ֔ר and [was] saying

Daniel declared: “In my vision in the night I looked, and suddenly the four winds of heaven were churning up the great sea.

Daniel 7:5 אָמְרִ֣ין [they were] saying

Suddenly another beast appeared, which looked like a bear. It was raised up on one of its sides, and it had three ribs in its mouth between its teeth. So it was told, ‘Get up and gorge yourself on flesh!’

Daniel 7:16 וַאֲמַר־ and he said

I approached one of those who were standing there, and I asked him the true meaning of all this. So he told me the interpretation of these things:

Daniel 7:23 אֲמַר֒ he said

This is what he said: ‘The fourth beast is a fourth kingdom that will appear on the earth, different from all the other kingdoms, and it will devour the whole earth, trample it down, and crush it.
