Daniel 3:10

3:10 You have issued an edict, O king, that everyone must bow down and pay homage to the golden statue when they hear the sound of the horn, flute, zither, trigon, harp, pipes, and all kinds of music.

Daniel 6:16

6:16 So the king gave the order, ¹  and Daniel was brought and thrown into a den ²  of lions. The king consoled ³  Daniel by saying, “Your God whom you continually serve will rescue you!”

Daniel 6:20

6:20 As he approached the den, he called out to Daniel in a worried voice, ⁴  “Daniel, servant of the living God, was your God whom you continually serve able to rescue you from the lions?”

Daniel 5:23

5:23 Instead, you have exalted yourself against the Lord of heaven. You brought before you the vessels from his temple, and you and your nobles, together with your wives and concubines, drank wine from them. You praised the gods of silver, gold, bronze, iron, wood, and stone – gods ⁵  that cannot see or hear or comprehend! But you have not glorified the God who has in his control ⁶  your very breath and all your ways!

¹ tn Aram “said.” So also in vv. 24, 25.

² sn The den was perhaps a pit below ground level which could be safely observed from above.

³ tn Aram “answered and said [to Daniel].”

¹ tn Aram “The king answered and said to Daniel.” This phrase has not been included in the translation for stylistic reasons; it is redundant in English.

¹ tn Aram “which.”

² tn Aram “in whose hand [are].”
