Daniel 6:24-26

New International Reader's Version

²⁴ Then the king gave another order. The men who had said bad things about Daniel were brought in. They were thrown into the lions’ den. So were their wives and children. Before they hit the bottom of the den, the lions attacked them. And the lions crushed all their bones.

²⁵ Then King Darius wrote to people of all nations, no matter what language they spoke. He said,

“May you have great success!

²⁶ “I order people in every part of my kingdom to respect and honor Daniel’s God.
