Daniel 6:13-15

Evangelical Heritage Version

¹³ Then they responded to the king, “Daniel, who is one of the exiles from Judah, does not pay attention to you, Your Majesty, or to the decree that you signed. Instead, three times each day he is praying his prayers.”

¹⁴ When the king heard this report, he was very upset about it, but he was determined to save Daniel. So until sunset he worked hard to rescue him. ¹⁵ Then these men came as a group to the king and kept saying to the king, “You know, Your Majesty, that it is the law of the Medes and the Persians that every decree or statute that the king establishes cannot be changed.”
