And Dan-i-el said, O king, my God hath shut the li-ons' mouths so that they have not hurt me, since I had done no wrong in his sight nor in thine, O king.
CY-RUS, KING OF PER-SI-A.
Then the king was glad, and bade his men take Dan-i-el out of the den. And when he was brought out, there was not a scratch found on him, for his trust was in God, and God took care of him.
Then the king had those men who found fault with Dan-i-el, thrown in-to the den—they and their wives, and their chil-dren—and the wild beasts were quick to eat them up.
Then Da-ri-us made a law that all men should serve the God of Dan-i-el, who was the one true God.
When Da-ri-us died, Cy-rus was made king.
