Daniel 6:20-27

20And when he came near unto the denH1358, he cried with a mournful voice unto Daniel: the kingH4430 spoke and said unto Daniel, O Daniel, servant of the living 1God, hath thy 2God whom thou servest continually been able to save thee from the lionsH744?

21Then DanielH1841 spoke unto the kingH4430, O kingH4430, live for ever!

22My 3God hath sent his angel, and hath shut the lions' mouths, that they have not hurt me; forasmuch as before him innocence was found in me; and also before thee, O kingH4430, have I done no hurt.

23Thereupon was the kingH4430 exceeding glad, and commanded that they should take Daniel up out of the den. So Daniel was taken up out of the den, and no manner of hurt was foundH7912 upon him, because he believed in his 4GodH426.

24And the kingH4430 commanded, and they brought those men who had accused DanielH1841, and cast them into the denH1358 of lions, them, their children, and their wives; and the lions had the mastery of them, and broke all their bones in pieces ere they came to the bottom of the denH1358.

25Then kingH4430 Darius wrote unto all peoples, nations, and languages, that dwell in all the earth: Peace be multiplied unto you.

26I make a decree, That in every dominion of my kingdom men tremble and fear before the 5God of Daniel; for he is the living 6God, and steadfast for ever, and his kingdom [that] which shall not be destroyed, and his dominion shall be even unto the end.

27He saveth and delivereth, and he worketh signs and wonders in the heavens and on the earth: who hath saved DanielH1841 from the power of the lions.
