Daniel 6:4-5

6:4 Consequently the supervisors and satraps were trying to find ³  some pretext against Daniel in connection with administrative matters. ⁴  But they were unable to find any such damaging evidence, ⁵  because he was trustworthy and guilty of no negligence or corruption. ⁶  6:5 So these men concluded, ⁷  “We won’t find any pretext against this man Daniel unless it is ⁸  in connection with the law of his God.”

Colossians 4:5

4:5 Conduct yourselves ⁹  with wisdom toward outsiders, making the most of the opportunities.
