Daniel:6:4-17




strkjv@Daniel:6:4 @ Then the presidents and princes sought to find sh@ occasion against Daniel concerning the kingdom; but they could y@ find sh@ none occasion nor fault sh@; forasmuch as he was faithful, neither was there any error or fault sh@ found sh@ in him.

strkjv@Daniel:6:5 @ Then said these men, We shall not find sh@ any occasion against this Daniel, except we find sh@ it against him concerning the law of his God.

strkjv@Daniel:6:6 @ Then these presidents and princes assembled together r@ to the king, and said thus unto him, King Darius, live for ever.

strkjv@Daniel:6:7 @ All the presidents of the kingdom, the governors, and the princes, the counsellors, and the captains, have consulted together to establish a royal statute, and to make a firm t@ decree, that whosoever shall ask a petition of any God or man for thirty days, save of thee, O king, he shall be cast r@ into the den of lions.

strkjv@Daniel:6:8 @ Now k@, O king, establish the decree, and sign r@ the writing, that it be not changed sh@, according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which altereth not.

strkjv@Daniel:6:9 @ Wherefore king Darius signed r@ the writing and the decree.

strkjv@Daniel:6:10 @ Now when Daniel knew y@ that the writing was signed r@, he went into his house; and his windows being open p@ in his chamber toward Jerusalem Y@ruwshalem (Chald), he kneeled b@ upon his knees three times a day, and prayed ts@, and gave thanks y@ before his God, as q@ he did aforetime .

strkjv@Daniel:6:11 @ Then these men assembled r@, and found sh@ Daniel praying and making supplication before his God.

strkjv@Daniel:6:12 @ Then they came near q@, and spake before the king concerning the kings decree; Hast thou not signed r@ a decree, that every man that shall ask a petition of any God or man within thirty days, save of thee, O king, shall be cast r@ into the den of lions? The king answered and said, The thing is true, according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which altereth not.

strkjv@Daniel:6:13 @ Then answered they and said before the king, That Daniel, which is of the children of the captivity of Judah, regardeth not thee, O king, nor the decree that thou hast signed r@, but maketh his petition three times a day.

strkjv@Daniel:6:14 @ Then the king, when he heard sh@ these words, was sore displeased with himself, and set his heart on Daniel to deliver sh@ him: and he laboured sh@ till the going down of the sun to deliver n@ him.

strkjv@Daniel:6:15 @ Then these men assembled r@ unto the king, and said unto the king, Know y@, O king, that the law of the Medes and Persians is, That no decree nor statute which the king establisheth may be changed sh@.

strkjv@Daniel:6:16 @ Then the king commanded, and they brought Daniel, and cast r@ him into the den of lions. Now the king spake and said unto Daniel, Thy God whom thou servest p@ continually, he will deliver sh@ thee.

strkjv@Daniel:6:17 @ And a stone was brought, and laid upon the mouth of the den; and the king sealed it with his own signet, and with the signet of his lords; that the purpose might not be changed sh@ concerning Daniel.
