Daniel 6:22-24
22My God 1sent His angel and 2shut the lions’ mouths and they have not harmed me, inasmuch as 3I was found innocent before Him; and also 4toward you, O king, I have committed no crime.” 23Then the king was very pleased and gave orders for Daniel to be taken up out of the den. So Daniel was taken up out of the den and 5no injury whatever was found on him, because he had 6trusted in his God. 24The king then gave orders, and they brought those men who had 7maliciously accused Daniel, and they 8cast them, their 9children and their wives into the lions’ den; and they had not reached the bottom of the den before the lions overpowered them and crushed all their bones.
