Exegesis
A further clause describes social and political reintegration: ûlehaddaray vərabrebanay yevaʿawon li {וּלְהַדָּרַי וְרַבְרְבָנַי יְבַעֲוֹן לִי | û-lə-had-dā-rai və-rav-rə-ḇā-nay yə-va-ʿă-wōn lî}, literally “and my counselors and my nobles sought me.” Here the coordinated noun phrase לְהַדָּרַי וְרַבְרְבָנַי “my counselors and my nobles” comes before the plural verb יְבַעֲוֹן “they sought” with לִי marking the king as the object. The syntax underscores that the elite of the realm once again recognize and actively turn toward him.
In context — Daniel 4:36
At that time my understanding returned to me, and for the glory of my kingdom my majesty and my splendor returned to me. Then my counselors and my nobles sought me out, and I was established in my kingdom, and surpassing greatness was added to me.
