da is a demonstrative pronoun used to point within the situations described in Daniel.

The attested forms function as demonstrative pronouns that point to persons, things, or elements within the immediate scene: the king and his condition in Daniel 4:27 and Daniel 5:6, the beasts in Daniel 7:3, and the horn in Daniel 7:8.

   All supplied tokens are tagged as demonstrative pronouns. In Daniel 4:27 the APB renders counsel addressed to the king; in Daniel 5:6 it renders the king's alarmed reaction, while Daniel 7:3 describes beasts differing from one another and Daniel 7:8 focuses on a small horn among the others. The translation confirms the scenes but does not align an English token to each demonstrative form.

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the surrounding scenes without consistently isolating a corresponding English demonstrative. Because it is a whole-verse translation, its wording cannot identify a fixed English rendering for each form.
