Daniel 6:21-23
1599 Geneva Bible
21 Then said Daniel unto the King, O king, live forever.
22 My God hath sent his Angel and hath shut the lion’s mouths, and they have not hurt me: for [a]my justice was found out before him: and unto thee, O king, I have done [b]no hurt.
23 Then was the King exceeding glad for him, and commanded that they should take Daniel out of the den: so Daniel was brought out of the den, and no manner of hurt was found upon him, because he [c]believed in his God.
