And
a stone was
brought , and
laid upon the
mouth of the
den; and the
king sealed it with his own
signet, and with the
signet of his
lords; that the
purpose might
not be
changed concerning
Daniel.
19
Then the
king arose very
early in the
morning, and
went in
haste unto the
den of
lions.
22
My
God hath
sent his
angel, and hath
shut the
lions' mouths, that they have
not hurt me: forasmuch
as * #ste
before him
innocency was
found in me; and
also before thee, O
king, have I
done no hurt.
23
Then was the
king exceeding 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
believed in his
God.
24
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.
