den <DAN6 -:7 > All the presidents of the kingdom, the governors,

 and the princes, the counsellors, and the captains, have

consulted together to establish a royal statute, and to make a

firm decree, that whosoever shall ask a petition of any God or

man for thirty days, save of thee, O king, he shall be cast into

the {den} of lions.

den <DAN6 -:12 > Then they came near, and spake before the king

concerning the king's decree; Hast thou not signed a decree,

that every man that shall ask [a petition] of any God or man

within thirty days, save of thee, O king, shall be cast into the

{den} of lions? The king answered and said, The thing [is] true,

according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which altereth

not.

den <DAN6 -:16 > Then the king commanded, and they brought

Daniel, and cast [him] into the {den} of lions. [Now] the king

spake and said unto Daniel, Thy God whom thou servest

continually, he will deliver thee.

den <DAN6 -:17 > And a stone was brought, and laid upon the

mouth of the {den}; and the king sealed it with his own signet,

and with the signet of his lords; that the purpose might not be

changed concerning Daniel.

den <DAN6 -:19 > Then the king arose very early in the morning,

and went in haste unto the {den} of lions.

den <DAN6 -:20 > And when he came to the {den}, he cried with a

lamentable voice unto Daniel: [and] the king spake and said to

Daniel, O Daniel, servant of the living God, is thy God, whom

thou servest continually, able to deliver thee from the lions?

den <DAN6 -:23 > Then was the king exceeding glad for him, and

commanded that they should take Daniel up out of the den. So

Daniel was taken up out of the {den}, and no manner of hurt was

found upon him, because he believed in his God.

den <DAN6 -:24 > And the king commanded, and they brought those

men which had accused Daniel, and they cast [them] into the den

of lions, them, their children, and their wives; and the lions

had the mastery of them, and brake all their bones in pieces or

ever they came at the bottom of the {den}.
