Exegesis
The conjunction waw with veahoran {וְאָחֳרָן֙ | wə-ʾā-ḥo-rān} ‘and another’ intensifies the statement, leading into the existential negative la itai {לָ֣א אִיתַ֔י | lāʾ ʾî-ṯay} ‘there is none’, followed by the subordinate clause di yechavinnah {דִּ֥י יְחַוִּנַּ֖הּ | dî yə-ḥav-win-nah} ‘who can declare it’, positioned before the king in kodam malka {קֳדָ֣ם מַלְכָּ֑א | qo-ḏām mal-kāʾ} ‘before the king’.
In context — Daniel 2:11
And the matter which the king has asked is difficult , and there is no other who can declare it before the king except the gods whose dwelling is not with flesh.
