lions 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}. lions 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. lions 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. lions Then the king arose very early in the morning, and went in haste unto the den of {lions}. lions 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}? lions My God hath sent his angel, and hath shut the {lions}' mouths, that they have not hurt me: forasmuch as before him innocency was found in me; and also before thee, O king, have I done no hurt. lions 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. lions 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. lions He delivereth and rescueth, and he worketh signs and wonders in heaven and in earth, who hath delivered Daniel from the power of the {lions}. lions And they had hair as the hair of women, and their teeth were as [the teeth] of {lions}. lions And thus I saw the horses in the vision, and them that sat on them, having breastplates of fire, and of jacinth, and brimstone: and the heads of the horses [were] as the heads of {lions}; and out of their mouths issued fire and smoke and brimstone. ~~~~~~
