Darius’ Officials Seek to Accuse Daniel

6 ^[a]It seemed good to Darius that he set 120 satraps over the kingdom, that they would be in charge of the whole kingdom, ² and over them three commissioners (of whom ^(A)Daniel was one), that these satraps might be accountable to them, and that the king might not suffer ^(B)loss. ³ Then this Daniel began distinguishing himself ^[b]among the commissioners and satraps because an ^(C)extraordinary spirit was in him, and the king planned to set him over the ^(D)entire kingdom.
