Daniel 6:8-15

Now
<03705>_,

O king
<04430>_,

establish
<06966> (8681)

the decree
<0633>_,

and sign
<07560> (8748)

the writing
<03792>_,

that it be not
<03809>

changed
<08133> (8682)_,

according to the law
<01882>

of the Medes
<04076>

and Persians
<06540>_,

which altereth
<05709> (8748)

not
<03809>_.

{altereth not: Chaldee, passeth not}

Wherefore
<03606> <01836> <06903>

king
<04430>

Darius
<01868>

signed
<07560> (8754)

the writing
<03792>

and the decree
<0633>_.

Now when Daniel
<01841>

knew
<03046> (8754)

that the writing
<03792>

was signed
<07560> (8752)_,

he went
<05954> (8754)

into his house
<01005>_;

and his windows
<03551>

being open
<06606> (8759)

in his chamber
<05952>

toward
<05049>

Jerusalem
<03390>_,

he kneeled
<01289> (8750)

upon
<05922>

his knees
<01291>

three
<08532>

times
<02166>

a day
<03118>_,

and prayed
<06739> (8743)_,

and gave thanks
<03029> (8683)

before
<06925>

his God
<0426>_,

as
<06903> <03606>

he did
<01934> (8754) <05648> (8751)

aforetime
<04481> <01836> <06928>_.

Then
<0116>

these
<0479>

men
<01400>

assembled
<07284> (8684)_,

and found
<07912> (8684)

Daniel
<01841>

praying
<01156> (8750)

and making supplication
<02604> (8723)

before
<06925>

his God
<0426>_.

Then
<0116>

they came near
<07127> (8754)_,

and spake
<0560> (8750)

before
<06925>

the king
<04430>

concerning
<05922>

the king's
<04430>

decree
<0633>_;

Hast thou not
<03809>

signed
<07560> (8754)

a decree
<0633>_,

that every
<03606>

man
<0606>

that shall ask
<01156> (8748)

[a petition] of
<04481>

any
<03606>

God
<0426>

or man
<0606>

within
<05705>

thirty
<08533>

days
<03118>_,

save
<03861>

of thee
<04481>_,

O king
<04430>_,

shall be cast
<07412> (8729)

into the den
<01358>

of lions
<0744>_?

The king
<04430>

answered
<06032> (8750)

and said
<0560> (8750)_,

The thing
<04406>

[is] true
<03330>_,

according to the law
<01882>

of the Medes
<04076>

and Persians
<06540>_,

which altereth
<05709> (8748)

not
<03809>_.

Then
<0116>

answered
<06032> (8754)

they and said
<0560> (8750)

before
<06925>

the king
<04430>_,

That Daniel
<01841>_,

which [is] of
<04481>

the children
<01123>

of the captivity
<01547>

of Judah
<03061>_,

regardeth
<07761> (8754) <02942>

not
<03809>

thee
<05922>_,

O king
<04430>_,

nor the decree
<0633>

that thou hast signed
<07560> (8754)_,

but maketh
<01156> (8750)

his petition
<01159>

three
<08532>

times
<02166>

a day
<03118>_.

Then
<0116>

the king
<04430>_,

when he heard
<08086> (8754)

[these] words
<04406>_,

was sore
<07690>

displeased
<0888> (8754)

with himself, and set
<07761> (8754)

[his] heart
<01079>

on
<05922>

Daniel
<01841>

to deliver
<07804> (8756)

him: and he laboured
<01934> (8754) <07712> (8723)

till
<05705>

the going down
<04606>

of the sun
<08122>

to deliver
<05338> (8682)

him.

Then
<0116>

these
<0479>

men
<01400>

assembled
<07284> (8684)

unto
<05922>

the king
<04430>_,

and said
<0560> (8750)

unto the king
<04430>_,

Know
<03046> (8747)_,

O king
<04430>_,

that the law
<01882>

of the Medes
<04076>

and Persians
<06540>

[is], That no
<03606>

decree
<0633>

nor statute
<07010>

which the king
<04430>

establisheth
<06966> (8681)

may be changed
<08133> (8682)_.

Daniel 6:17

And a
<02298>

stone
<069>

was brought
<0858> (8717)_,

and laid
<07761> (8752)

upon
<05922>

the mouth
<06433>

of the den
<01358>_;

and the king
<04430>

sealed
<02857> (8754)

it with his own signet
<05824>_,

and with the signet
<05824>

of his lords
<07261>_;

that the purpose
<06640>

might not
<03809>

be changed
<08133> (8748)

concerning Daniel
<01841>_.
