19. (6:20) Then the king arose very early in the boker, and went in haste unto the den of lions.
20. (6:21) And when he came to the den, he cried with an anguished voice unto Daniel; and the king spoke and said to Daniel, O Daniel, eved of HaElohim HaChai, is thy G-d, whom thou servest continually, able to deliver thee from the lions?
21. (6:22) Then said Daniel unto the king, O king, L'olam yicheyeh (live for ever).
22. (6:23) My G-d hath sent his malach, and hath shut the lions' mouths that they have not hurt me; forasmuch as before Him innocence was found in me; and also before thee, O king, have I done no rah (wrong).
23. (6:24) Then was the king exceedingly glad for him, and commanded that they should take Daniel up out of the den. So Daniel was taken up out of the den, and no manner of hurt was found upon him, because he had emunah in his G-d.
24. (6:25) And the king commanded, and they brought those anashim which had accused Daniel, and they cast them into the den of lions, them, their children, and their wives; and the lions overpowered them, and broke all their bones in pieces before they ever came to the bottom of the den.
25. (6:26) Then king Daryavesh wrote unto all people, nations, and languages, that dwell in kol ha'aretz; Shalom aleichem l'machbir (Peace be multiplied unto you).
26. (6:27) I make a decree, That in every dominion of my malchut men must tremble and fear before the G-d of Daniel, for He is HaElohim HaChai, and stedfast l'olamim (forever), and His malchut that which shall not be destroyed, and His dominion shall be even ad hasof (unto the end).
27. (6:28) He delivereth and rescueth, and He worketh otot and mofetim in Shomayim and in ha'aretz, Who hath delivered Daniel from the power of the lions.
