Daniel 6 : 1,5,6,9,12
Chapter 6
| 1 | It pleased Darius to set over the kingdom one hundred and twenty satraps, to be over the whole kingdom; |
| 5 | Then these men said, "We shall not find any charge against this Daniel unless we find it against him concerning the law of his God." |
| 6 | So these governors and satraps thronged before the king, and said thus to him: "King Darius, live forever! |
| 9 | Therefore King Darius signed the written decree. |
| 12 | And they went before the king, and spoke concerning the king's decree: "Have you not signed a decree that every man who petitions any god or man within thirty days, except you, O king, shall be cast into the den of lions?" The king answered and said, "The thing is true, according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which does not alter." |
