Daniel Chapter 6 - King James Strong Number Version

1
It pleased <H6925> <H8232> Darius <H1868> to set <H6966> over <H5922> the kingdom <H4437> an hundred <H3969> and twenty <H6243> princes, <H0324> which should be <H1934> over the whole <H3606> kingdom; <H4437>
2
And over <H5924> these <H4481> three <H8532> presidents; <H5632> of whom Daniel <H1841> [was] first: <H2298> that the <H0459> princes <H0324> might give <H1934> <H3052> accounts <H2941> unto them, and the king <H4430> should have <H1934> no <H3809> damage. <H5142>
3
Then <H0116> this <H1836> Daniel <H1841> was <H1934> preferred <H5330> above <H5922> the presidents <H5632> and princes, <H0324> because <H3606> <H6903> an excellent <H3493> spirit <H7308> [was] in him; and the king <H4430> thought <H6246> to set <H6966> him over <H5922> the whole <H3606> realm. <H4437>
4
Then <H0116> the presidents <H5632> and princes <H0324> sought <H1934> <H1156> to find <H7912> occasion <H5931> against Daniel <H1841> concerning <H6655> the kingdom; <H4437> but <H3606> they could <H3202> find <H7912> none <H3809> <H3606> occasion <H5931> nor <H3809> fault; <H7844> forasmuch <H3606> <H6903> as he [was] faithful, <H0540> neither <H3809> was there any <H3606> error <H7960> or fault <H7844> found <H7912> in him. <H5922>
5
Then <H0116> said <H0560> these <H0479> men, <H1400> We shall not <H3809> find <H7912> any <H3606> occasion <H5931> against this <H1836> Daniel, <H1841> except <H3861> we find <H7912> [it] against <H5922> him concerning the law <H1882> of his God. <H0426>
6
Then <H0116> these <H0459> presidents <H5632> and princes <H0324> assembled together <H7284> to <H5922> the king, <H4430> and said <H0560> thus <H3652> unto him, King <H4430> Darius, <H1868> live <H2418> for ever. <H5957>
7
All <H3606> the presidents <H5632> of the kingdom, <H4437> the governors, <H5460> and the princes, <H0324> the counsellors, <H1907> and the captains, <H6347> have consulted together <H3272> to establish <H6966> a royal <H4430> statute, <H7010> and to make a firm <H8631> decree, <H0633> that whosoever <H3606> shall ask <H1156> a petition <H1159> of <H4481> any <H3606> God <H0426> or man <H0606> for <H5705> thirty <H8533> days, <H3118> save <H3861> of thee, <H4481> O king, <H4430> he shall be cast <H7412> into the den <H1358> of lions. <H0744>
8
Now, <H3705> O king, <H4430> establish <H6966> the decree, <H0633> and sign <H7560> the writing, <H3792> that it be not <H3809> changed, <H8133> according to the law <H1882> of the Medes <H4076> and Persians, <H6540> which altereth <H5709> not. <H3809>
9
Wherefore <H3606> <H1836> <H6903> king <H4430> Darius <H1868> signed <H7560> the writing <H3792> and the decree. <H0633>
10
Now when Daniel <H1841> knew <H3046> that the writing <H3792> was signed, <H7560> he went <H5954> into his house; <H1005> and his windows <H3551> being open <H6606> in his chamber <H5952> toward <H5049> Jerusalem, <H3390> he kneeled <H1289> upon <H5922> his knees <H1291> three <H8532> times <H2166> a day, <H3118> and prayed, <H6739> and gave thanks <H3029> before <H6925> his God, <H0426> as <H6903> <H3606> he did <H1934> <H5648> aforetime. <H4481> <H1836> <H6928>
11
Then <H0116> these <H0479> men <H1400> assembled, <H7284> and found <H7912> Daniel <H1841> praying <H1156> and making supplication <H2604> before <H6925> his God. <H0426>
12
Then <H0116> they came near, <H7127> and spake <H0560> before <H6925> the king <H4430> concerning <H5922> the king's <H4430> decree; <H0633> Hast thou not <H3809> signed <H7560> a decree, <H0633> that every <H3606> man <H0606> that shall ask <H1156> [a petition] of <H4481> any <H3606> God <H0426> or man <H0606> within <H5705> thirty <H8533> days, <H3118> save <H3861> of thee, <H4481> O king, <H4430> shall be cast <H7412> into the den <H1358> of lions? <H0744> The king <H4430> answered <H6032> and said, <H0560> The thing <H4406> [is] true, <H3330> according to the law <H1882> of the Medes <H4076> and Persians, <H6540> which altereth <H5709> not. <H3809>
13
Then <H0116> answered <H6032> they and said <H0560> before <H6925> the king, <H4430> That Daniel, <H1841> which [is] of <H4481> the children <H1123> of the captivity <H1547> of Judah, <H3061> regardeth <H7761> <H2942> not <H3809> thee, <H5922> O king, <H4430> nor <H5922> the decree <H0633> that thou hast signed, <H7560> but maketh <H1156> his petition <H1159> three <H8532> times <H2166> a day. <H3118>
14
Then <H0116> the king, <H4430> when he heard <H8086> [these] words, <H4406> was sore <H7690> displeased <H0888> with <H5922> himself, and set <H7761> [his] heart <H1079> on <H5922> Daniel <H1841> to deliver <H7804> him: and he laboured <H1934> <H7712> till <H5705> the going down <H4606> of the sun <H8122> to deliver <H5338> him.
15
Then <H0116> these <H0479> men <H1400> assembled <H7284> unto <H5922> the king, <H4430> and said <H0560> unto the king, <H4430> Know, <H3046> O king, <H4430> that the law <H1882> of the Medes <H4076> and Persians <H6540> [is], That no <H3606> decree <H0633> nor statute <H7010> which the king <H4430> establisheth <H6966> may be changed. <H8133>
16
Then <H0116> the king <H4430> commanded, <H0560> and they brought <H0858> Daniel, <H1841> and cast <H7412> [him] into the den <H1358> of lions. <H0744> [Now] the king <H4430> spake <H6032> and said <H0560> unto Daniel, <H1841> Thy God <H0426> whom thou <H0607> servest <H6399> continually, <H8411> he will deliver <H7804> thee.
17
And a <H2298> stone <H0069> was brought, <H0858> and laid <H7761> upon <H5922> the mouth <H6433> of the den; <H1358> and the king <H4430> sealed <H2857> it with his own signet, <H5824> and with the signet <H5824> of his lords; <H7261> that the purpose <H6640> might not <H3809> be changed <H8133> concerning Daniel. <H1841>
18
Then <H0116> the king <H4430> went <H0236> to his palace, <H1965> and passed the night <H0956> fasting: <H2908> neither <H3809> were instruments <H1761> of musick brought <H5954> before <H6925> him: and his sleep <H8139> went <H5075> from him. <H5922>
19
Then <H0116> the king <H4430> arose <H6966> very early <H8238> in the morning, <H5053> and went <H0236> in haste <H0927> unto the den <H1358> of lions. <H0744>
20
And when he came <H7127> to the den, <H1358> he cried <H2200> with a lamentable <H6088> voice <H7032> unto Daniel: <H1841> [and] the king <H4430> spake <H6032> and said <H0560> to Daniel, <H1841> O Daniel, <H1841> servant <H5649> of the living <H2417> God, <H0426> is thy God, <H0426> whom thou servest <H6399> continually, <H8411> able <H3202> to deliver <H7804> thee from <H4481> the lions? <H0744>
21
Then <H0116> said <H4449> Daniel <H1841> unto <H5974> the king, <H4430> O king, <H4430> live <H2418> for ever. <H5957>
22
My God <H0426> hath sent <H7972> his angel, <H4398> and hath shut <H5463> the lions' <H0744> mouths, <H6433> that they have not <H3809> hurt <H2255> me: forasmuch as <H3606> <H6903> before <H6925> him innocency <H2136> was found <H7912> in me; and also <H0638> before <H6925> thee, O king, <H4430> have I done <H5648> no <H3809> hurt. <H2248>
23
Then <H0116> was the king <H4430> exceeding <H7690> glad <H2868> for him, <H5922> and commanded <H0560> that they should take Daniel <H1841> up <H5267> out of <H4481> the den. <H1358> So Daniel <H1841> was taken up <H5267> out of <H4481> the den, <H1358> and no <H3809> manner <H3606> of hurt <H2257> was found <H7912> upon him, because he believed <H0540> in his God. <H0426>
24
And the king <H4430> commanded, <H0560> and they brought <H0858> those <H0479> men <H1400> which had accused <H0399> <H7170> Daniel, <H1841> and they cast <H7412> [them] into the den <H1358> of lions, <H0744> them, <H0581> their children, <H1123> and their wives; <H5389> and the lions <H0744> had the mastery <H7981> of them, and brake all <H3606> their bones <H1635> in pieces <H1855> or <H5705> ever <H3809> they came <H4291> at the bottom <H0773> of the den. <H1358>
25
Then <H0116> king <H4430> Darius <H1868> wrote <H3790> unto all <H3606> people, <H5972> nations, <H0524> and languages, <H3961> that dwell <H1753> in all <H3606> the earth; <H0772> Peace <H8001> be multiplied <H7680> unto you.
26
I <H4481> <H6925> make <H7761> a decree, <H2942> That in every <H3606> dominion <H7985> of my kingdom <H4437> men tremble <H1934> <H2112> and fear <H1763> before <H4481> <H6925> the God <H0426> of Daniel: <H1841> for he [is] the living <H2417> God, <H0426> and stedfast <H7011> for ever, <H5957> and his kingdom <H4437> [that] which shall not <H3809> be destroyed, <H2255> and his dominion <H7985> [shall be even] unto <H5705> the end. <H5491>
27
He delivereth <H7804> and rescueth, <H5338> and he worketh <H5648> signs <H0852> and wonders <H8540> in heaven <H8065> and in earth, <H0772> who hath delivered <H7804> Daniel <H1841> from <H4481> the power <H3028> of the lions. <H0744>
28
So this <H1836> Daniel <H1841> prospered <H6744> in the reign <H4437> of Darius, <H1868> and in the reign <H4437> of Cyrus <H3567> the Persian. <H6543>
