Daniel 6:16–22

16

Then the king commanded, and they brought Daniel and cast him into the den of lions. The king spoke and said to Daniel, “Your God whom you serve continually, he will deliver you.”

17

A stone was brought, and laid on the mouth of the den; and the king sealed it with his own signet, and with the signet of his lords; that nothing might be changed concerning Daniel.

18

Then the king went to his palace, and passed the night fasting. No musical instruments were brought before him; and his sleep fled from him.

21

Then Daniel said to the king, “O king, live forever!

22

My God has sent his angel, and has shut the lions’ mouths, and they have not hurt me, because innocence was found in me before him; and also before you, O king, I have done no harm.”
