Daniel 6:12

6:12 So they approached the king and said to him, ⁴  “Did you not issue an edict to the effect that for the next thirty days anyone who prays to any god or human other than to you, O king, would be thrown into a den of lions?” The king replied, “That is correct, ⁵  according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which cannot be changed.”

¹ tn Aram “answered and said.”

² tn Aram “from the midst of the fire.” For stylistic reasons the words “the midst of” have been left untranslated.

³ 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.

⁵ tc The MT also has “about the edict of the king,” but this phrase is absent in the LXX and the Syriac. The present translation deletes the expression.

⁶ tn Aram “the word is true.”
