Daniel 6:6-9

6Then these presidents and satraps came in a body to the king, and said thus unto him: King Darius, live for ever!

7All the presidents of the kingdom, the prefects, and the satraps, the counsellors, and the governors have consulted together to establish a royal statute, and to make a firm decree, that whosoever shall ask a petition of any 1god or man for thirty days, except of thee, O king, he shall be cast into the den of lions.

8Now, O king, establish the decree, and sign the writing, that it be not changed, according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which may not be revoked.

9Therefore king Darius signed the writing and the decree.
