Daniel 6:2-7

2and over them three presidents, of whom Daniel was one; that these satrapsH324 might give account unto them, and that the king should have no damage. 3Then this DanielH1841 was distinguished above the presidents and the satrapsH324, because an excellent spirit was in him; and the kingH4430 thought to set him over the whole realm.

4ThenH116 the presidents and the satrapsH324 sought to find occasion against DanielH1841 as touching the kingdomH4437; but they could find no occasion nor fault, forasmuch as he was faithful, neither was there any error or fault found in him. 5ThenH116 said these men, We shall not findH7912 any occasion against this DanielH1841, except we findH7912 it against him concerningH5922 the law of his God. 6ThenH116 these presidents and satraps assembled together to the king, and saidH560 thus unto him, King Darius, live for ever. 7All the presidents of the kingdom, the deputies and the satrapsH324, the counsellors and the governors, have consulted together to establish a royal statute, and to make a strong interdict, that whosoever shall ask a petition of any god or man for thirty days, save of thee, O kingH4430, he shall be cast into the den of lions.
