Exegesis
The coordinate clause umalkhu telita'a ahari di nehasha di tishlat bekhol ara {וּמַלְכ֨וּ תְלִיתָאָ֤ה אָחֳרִי֙ דִּ֣י נְחָשָׁ֔א דִּ֥י תִשְׁלַ֖ט בְּכָל־אַרְעָֽא} conveys “and a third kingdom, another, which is of bronze, which shall rule over all the earth.”
The relative particle di {דִּ֣י | dî} introduces descriptive clauses, and the feminine agreement with telita'a reflects grammatical consistency. The English rendering preserves temporal flow and parallelism while clarifying idiomatic Aramaic.
