Daniel 6:1-5 ▼

1 It was acceptable before Darius, and he established over the kingdom a hundred and twenty satraps, who would be over all the kingdom;

2 and over them three administrators, of whom Daniel was one, that these satraps should be giving an account of themselves, so that the king should not be suffering loss.

3 Then this Daniel came to be distinguished over the administrators and the satraps, because that an extraordinary spirit was in him; and the king was planning to establish him over all of the kingdom.

4 Then the administrators and the satraps were looking for a matter to find against Daniel regarding the kingdom, and any matter or corruption they were not able to find, all because that he was trustworthy, and there was not found any neglect or corruption in him.

5 Then these men said that, “We shall not find against this Daniel any charge, unless we find it against him concerning the law of his God.”
