The correct answer is 7.

To find the value of the given nested radical expression, we simplify it step-by-step starting from the innermost square root and working outwards.

Step 1: Evaluate the innermost square root
We first calculate $\sqrt{4}$:
$\sqrt{4}=2$

Step 2: Evaluate the next radical level
Substitute 2 into the expression under the next square root:
$\sqrt{34+2}=\sqrt{36}=6$

Step 3: Evaluate the third radical level
Substitute 6 into the next level:
$\sqrt{3+6}=\sqrt{9}=3$

Step 4: Evaluate the fourth radical level
Substitute 3 into the next level:
$\sqrt{46+3}=\sqrt{49}=7$

Step 5: Evaluate the outermost square root
Finally, substitute 7 into the outermost expression:
$\sqrt{42+7}=\sqrt{49}=7$

Therefore, the value of the given expression is 7.
