princes And the king spake unto Ashpenaz the master of his eunuchs, that he should bring [certain] of the children of Israel, and of the king's seed, and of the {princes}; princes Then Nebuchadnezzar the king sent to gather together the {princes}, the governors, and the captains, the judges, the treasurers, the counsellors, the sheriffs, and all the rulers of the provinces, to come to the dedication of the image which Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up. princes Then the {princes}, the governors, and captains, the judges, the treasurers, the counsellors, the sheriffs, and all the rulers of the provinces, were gathered together unto the dedication of the image that Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up; and they stood before the image that Nebuchadnezzar had set up. princes And the {princes}, governors, and captains, and the king's counsellors, being gathered together, saw these men, upon whose bodies the fire had no power, nor was an hair of their head singed, neither were their coats changed, nor the smell of fire had passed on them. princes Belshazzar, whiles he tasted the wine, commanded to bring the golden and silver vessels which his father Nebuchadnezzar had taken out of the temple which [was] in Jerusalem; that the king, and his {princes}, his wives, and his concubines, might drink therein. princes Then they brought the golden vessels that were taken out of the temple of the house of God which [was] at Jerusalem; and the king, and his {princes}, his wives, and his concubines, drank in them. princes It pleased Darius to set over the kingdom an hundred and twenty {princes}, which should be over the whole kingdom; princes And over these three presidents; of whom Daniel [was] first: that the {princes} might give accounts unto them, and the king should have no damage. princes Then this Daniel was preferred above the presidents and {princes}, because an excellent spirit [was] in him; and the king thought to set him over the whole realm. princes Then the presidents and {princes} sought to find occasion against Daniel concerning the kingdom; but they could find none occasion nor fault; forasmuch as he [was] faithful, neither was there any error or fault found in him. princes Then these presidents and {princes} assembled together to the king, and said thus unto him, King Darius, live for ever. princes 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. princes And through his policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he shall magnify [himself] in his heart, and by peace shall destroy many: he shall also stand up against the Prince of {princes}; but he shall be broken without hand. princes Neither have we hearkened unto thy servants the prophets, which spake in thy name to our kings, our {princes}, and our fathers, and to all the people of the land. princes O Lord, to us [belongeth] confusion of face, to our kings, to our {princes}, and to our fathers, because we have sinned against thee. princes But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me one and twenty days: but, lo, Michael, one of the chief {princes}, came to help me; and I remained there with the kings of Persia. princes And the king of the south shall be strong, and [one] of his {princes}; and he shall be strong above him, and have dominion; his dominion [shall be] a great dominion. princes And shall also carry captives into Egypt their gods, with their {princes}, [and] with their precious vessels of silver and of gold; and he shall continue [more] years than the king of the north. ~~~~~~
