26 I ·am making a new law [L set a decree] for people in every part of my ·kingdom [kingly dominion]. All of you must ·fear [tremble] and ·respect [fear] the God of Daniel.

For he is the living God;
    he ·lives [endures] forever.
His kingdom will never be destroyed,
    and his ·rule [sovereignty] will never end.
27 God rescues and ·saves [delivers] people
    and does ·mighty miracles [signs and wonders]
    in heaven and on earth.
He is the one who ·saved [rescued] Daniel
    from the ·power [L hand] of the lions.

28 So Daniel was ·successful [prosperous] during the time Darius was king ·and [or even] when Cyrus the Persian was king [C may be two different names for the same king].
