Abstract:
The manuscript Verona, Biblioteca Capitolare IV fol. 6 is part of the Old Latin fragments belonging to n° 182 in the Vetus Latina repertory. In addition to a fragment of Ezekiel (Ezek 36:22-28) which has already been edited, the manuscript transmits a «reading of the prophet Daniel with a canticle» consisting of Dan 1:1-2, 3:1-96 under its vulgate form with the exception of the Prayer of Azariah (3:26-45) which is Old Latin. Unlike the Vulgate verses, vv. 26-45 have never been edited. This article does that and gives a commentary on the text of the prayer. It arrives at the conclusion that 182 is a witness to the European text of Daniel close to 177 (Würzburg palimpsest) and Augustine (who quotes the Prayer of Azariah in his letter 111).
