In Daniel 2:26 the APB renders the identification, “Daniel, whose name is Belteshazzar,” as the king asks about the dream and its interpretation; in Daniel 5:12 it renders “Daniel, whom the king named Belteshazzar” before Daniel is summoned to make the interpretation known.
In the Anselm Project Bible: In Daniel 2:26 and Daniel 5:12, the APB explicitly presents the name in clauses identifying Daniel. In the supplied APB text for Daniel 4:15, Daniel 4:16, Daniel 4:5, and Daniel 4:6, the name is not visibly represented, so the translation does not isolate every supplied token.
