13 So they answered and said before the king, “That Daniel, awho is one of the captives from Judah, bdoes not show due regard for you, O king, or for the decree that you have signed, but makes his petition three times a day.”
14 And the king, when he heard these words, awas greatly displeased with himself, and set his heart on Daniel to deliver him; and he1 labored till the going down of the sun to deliver him.
15 Then these men1 approached the king, and said to the king, “Know, O king, that it is athe law of the Medes and Persians that no decree or statute which the king establishes may be changed.”
16 So the king gave the command, and they brought Daniel and cast him into the den of lions. But the king spoke, saying to Daniel, “Your God, whom you serve continually, He will deliver you.”
17 aThen a stone was brought and laid on the mouth of the den, band the king sealed it with his own signet ring and with the signets of his lords, that the purpose concerning Daniel might not be changed.
