NETBible

The king gave another order,¹ and those men who had maliciously accused² Daniel were brought and thrown³ into the lions’ den – they, their children, and their wives.⁴ They did not even reach the bottom of the den before the lions overpowered them and crushed all their bones.

NET Notes

¹tn Aram “said.”

²tn Aram “had eaten the pieces of.” The Aramaic expression is ironic, in that the accusers who had figuratively “eaten the pieces of Daniel” are themselves literally devoured by the lions.

³tn The Aramaic active impersonal verb is often used as a substitute for the passive.

⁴tc The LXX specifies only the two overseers, together with their families, as those who were cast into the lions’ den.
