Daniel 6:6-8

Jubilee Bible 2000

⁶ ¶ Then these governors and presidents assembled together before the king and said thus unto him, King Darius, live for ever.

⁷ All the presidents of the kingdom, magistrates, governors, great ones, and captains have agreed in common accord to promote a royal decree and to confirm it that whoever shall ask a petition of any God or man for thirty days, except of thee, O king, he shall be cast into the den of lions.

⁸ Now, O king, confirm the decree and sign the writing that it not be moved, according to the law of Media and of Persia, which does not change.
