Be carefulG3309 for nothingG3367; butG235 inG1722 every thingG3956 by prayerG4335 andG2532 supplicationG1162 withG3326 thanksgivingG2169 letG1107 yourG5216 requestsG155 be made knownG1107 untoG4314 GodG2316.
AndG2532 the peaceG1515 of GodG2316, whichG3588 passethG5242 allG3956 understandingG3563, shall keepG5432 yourG5216 heartsG2588 andG2532 mindsG5216+G3540 throughG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424.
It pleasedH6925+H8232 DariusH1868 to setH6966 overH5922 the kingdomH4437 an hundredH3969 and twentyH6243 princesH324, which should beH1934 over the wholeH3606 kingdomH4437;
And overH5924 theseH4481 threeH8532 presidentsH5632; of whomH4481 DanielH1841 was firstH2298: thatH459 the princesH324 mightH1934 giveH3052 accountsH2941 unto them, and the kingH4430 should haveH1934 noH3809 damageH5142.
ThenH116 thisH1836 DanielH1841 wasH1934 preferredH5330 aboveH5922 the presidentsH5632 and princesH324, becauseH3606+H6903 an excellentH3493 spiritH7308 was in him; and the kingH4430 thoughtH6246 to setH6966 him overH5922 the wholeH3606 realmH4437.
ThenH116 the presidentsH5632 and princesH324 soughtH1934+H1156 to findH7912 occasionH5931 against DanielH1841 concerningH6655 the kingdomH4437; butH3606 they couldH3202 findH7912 noneH3809 occasionH5931 norH3809 faultH7844; forasmuchH6903 as he was faithfulH540, neitherH3809 was there anyH3606 errorH7960 or faultH7844 foundH7912 in himH5922.
ThenH116 saidH560 theseH479 menH1400, We shall notH3809 findH7912 anyH3606 occasionH5931 againstH5922 thisH1836 DanielH1841, exceptH3861 we findH7912 it against him concerning the lawH1882 of his GodH426.
ThenH116 theseH459 presidentsH5632 and princesH324 assembled togetherH7284 to the kingH4430, and saidH560 thusH3652 unto himH5922, KingH4430 DariusH1868, liveH2418 for everH5957. {assembled…: or, came tumultuously}
AllH3606 the presidentsH5632 of the kingdomH4437, the governorsH5460, and the princesH324, the counsellorsH1907, and the captainsH6347, have consulted togetherH3272 to establishH6966 a royalH4430 statuteH7010, and to make a firmH8631 decreeH633, that whosoever shall askH1156 a petitionH1159 ofH4481 anyH3606 GodH426 or manH606 forH5705 thirtyH8533 daysH3118, saveH3861 of theeH4481, O kingH4430, he shall be castH7412 into the denH1358 of lionsH744. {decree: or, interdict}
NowH3705, O kingH4430, establishH6966 the decreeH633, and signH7560 the writingH3792, that it be notH3809 changedH8133, according to the lawH1882 of the MedesH4076 and PersiansH6540, which alterethH5709 notH3809. {altereth not: Cald. passeth not}
WhereforeH3606+H1836+H6903 kingH4430 DariusH1868 signedH7560 the writingH3792 and the decreeH633.
Now when DanielH1841 knewH3046 that the writingH3792 was signedH7560, he wentH5954 into his houseH1005; and his windowsH3551 being openH6606 in his chamberH5952 towardH5049 JerusalemH3390, he kneeledH1289 uponH5922 his kneesH1291 threeH8532 timesH2166 a dayH3118, and prayedH6739, and gave thanksH3029 beforeH6925 his GodH426, asH6903+H3606 he didH1934+H5648 aforetimeH4481+H1836+H6928.
ThenH116 theseH479 menH1400 assembledH7284, and foundH7912 DanielH1841 prayingH1156 and making supplicationH2604 beforeH6925 his GodH426.
ThenH116 they came nearH7127, and spakeH560 beforeH6925 the kingH4430 concerningH5922 the king'sH4430 decreeH633; Hast thou notH3809 signedH7560 a decreeH633, that everyH3606 manH606 that shall askH1156 a petition ofH4481 anyH3606 GodH426 or manH606 withinH5705 thirtyH8533 daysH3118, saveH3861 of theeH4481, O kingH4430, shall be castH7412 into the denH1358 of lionsH744? The kingH4430 answeredH6032 and saidH560, The thingH4406 is trueH3330, according to the lawH1882 of the MedesH4076 and PersiansH6540, which alterethH5709 notH3809.
ThenH116 answeredH6032 they and saidH560 beforeH6925 the kingH4430, That DanielH1841, which is ofH4481 the childrenH1123 of the captivityH1547 of JudahH3061, regardethH7761+H2942 notH3809 theeH5922, O kingH4430, nor the decreeH633 that thou hast signedH7560, but makethH1156 his petitionH1159 threeH8532 timesH2166 a dayH3118.
ThenH116 the kingH4430, when he heardH8086 these wordsH4406, was soreH7690 displeasedH888 with himself, and setH7761 his heartH1079 onH5922 DanielH1841 to deliverH7804 him: and he labouredH1934+H7712 tillH5705 the going downH4606 of the sunH8122 to deliverH5338 him.
ThenH116 theseH479 menH1400 assembledH7284 untoH5922 the kingH4430, and saidH560 unto the kingH4430, KnowH3046, O kingH4430, that the lawH1882 of the MedesH4076 and PersiansH6540 is, That noH3606 decreeH633 nor statuteH7010 which the kingH4430 establishethH6966 may be changedH8133.
ThenH116 the kingH4430 commandedH560, and they broughtH858 DanielH1841, and castH7412 him into the denH1358 of lionsH744. Now the kingH4430 spakeH6032 and saidH560 unto DanielH1841, Thy GodH426 whom thouH607 servestH6399 continuallyH8411, he will deliverH7804 thee.
And aH2298 stoneH69 was broughtH858, and laidH7761 uponH5922 the mouthH6433 of the denH1358; and the kingH4430 sealedH2857 it with his own signetH5824, and with the signetH5824 of his lordsH7261; that the purposeH6640 might notH3809 be changedH8133 concerning DanielH1841.
ThenH116 the kingH4430 wentH236 to his palaceH1965, and passed the nightH956 fastingH2908: neitherH3809 were instrumentsH1761 of musick broughtH5954 beforeH6925 him: and his sleepH8139 wentH5075 from himH5922. {instruments…: or, table}
ThenH116 the kingH4430 aroseH6966 very earlyH8238 in the morningH5053, and wentH236 in hasteH927 unto the denH1358 of lionsH744.
And when he cameH7127 to the denH1358, he criedH2200 with a lamentableH6088 voiceH7032 unto DanielH1841: and the kingH4430 spakeH6032 and saidH560 to DanielH1841, O DanielH1841, servantH5649 of the livingH2417 GodH426, is thy GodH426, whom thou servestH6399 continuallyH8411, ableH3202 to deliverH7804 thee fromH4481 the lionsH744?
ThenH116 saidH4449 DanielH1841 untoH5974 the kingH4430, O kingH4430, liveH2418 for everH5957.
My GodH426 hath sentH7972 his angelH4398, and hath shutH5463 the lions'H744 mouthsH6433, that they have notH3809 hurtH2255 me: forasmuch asH3606+H6903 beforeH6925 him innocencyH2136 was foundH7912 in me; and alsoH638 beforeH6925 thee, O kingH4430, have I doneH5648 noH3809 hurtH2248.
ThenH116 was the kingH4430 exceedingH7690 gladH2868 for himH5922, and commandedH560 that they should takeH5267 DanielH1841 upH5267 out ofH4481 the denH1358. So DanielH1841 was taken upH5267 out ofH4481 the denH1358, and noH3809 mannerH3606 of hurtH2257 was foundH7912 upon him, because he believedH540 in his GodH426.
And the kingH4430 commandedH560, and they broughtH858 thoseH479 menH1400 which had accusedH399+H7170 DanielH1841, and they castH7412 them into the denH1358 of lionsH744, themH581, their childrenH1123, and their wivesH5389; and the lionsH744 had the masteryH5705+H7981 of them, and brakeH1855 allH3606 their bonesH1635 in piecesH1855 or everH3809 they cameH4291 at the bottomH773 of the denH1358.
ThenH116 kingH4430 DariusH1868 wroteH3790 unto allH3606 peopleH5972, nationsH524, and languagesH3961, that dwellH1753 in allH3606 the earthH772; PeaceH8001 be multipliedH7680 unto you.
IH4481+H6925 makeH7761 a decreeH2942, That in everyH3606 dominionH7985 of my kingdomH4437 men trembleH1934+H2112 and fearH1763 beforeH4481+H6925 the GodH426 of DanielH1841: for he is the livingH2417 GodH426, and stedfastH7011 for everH5957, and his kingdomH4437 that which shall notH3809 be destroyedH2255, and his dominionH7985 shall be even untoH5705 the endH5491.
He deliverethH7804 and rescuethH5338, and he workethH5648 signsH852 and wondersH8540 in heavenH8065 and in earthH772, who hath deliveredH7804 DanielH1841 fromH4481 the powerH3028 of the lionsH744. {power: Cald. hand}
So thisH1836 DanielH1841 prosperedH6744 in the reignH4437 of DariusH1868, and in the reignH4437 of CyrusH3567 the PersianH6543.
In the thirdH7969 yearH8141 of CyrusH3566 kingH4428 of PersiaH6539 a thingH1697 was revealedH1540 unto DanielH1840, whose nameH8034 was calledH7121 BelteshazzarH1095; and the thingH1697 was trueH571, but the time appointedH6635 was longH1419: and he understoodH995 the thingH1697, and had understandingH998 of the visionH4758. {long: Heb. great}
In those daysH3117 I DanielH1840 was mourningH56 threeH7969 fullH3117 weeksH7620. {full…: Heb. weeks of days}
I ateH398 no pleasantH2532 breadH3899, neither cameH935 fleshH1320 nor wineH3196 in my mouthH6310, neither did I anointH5480 myself at allH5480, till threeH7969 wholeH3117 weeksH7620 were fulfilledH4390. {pleasant…: Heb. bread of desires}
And in the fourH702 and twentiethH6242 dayH3117 of the firstH7223 monthH2320, as I was by the sideH3027 of the greatH1419 riverH5104, which is HiddekelH2313;
Then I lifted upH5375 mine eyesH5869, and lookedH7200, and behold a certainH259 manH376 clothedH3847 in linenH906, whose loinsH4975 were girdedH2296 with fine goldH3800 of UphazH210: {a…: Heb. one man}
His bodyH1472 also was like the berylH8658, and his faceH6440 as the appearanceH4758 of lightningH1300, and his eyesH5869 as lampsH3940 of fireH784, and his armsH2220 and his feetH4772 like in colourH5869 to polishedH7044 brassH5178, and the voiceH6963 of his wordsH1697 like the voiceH6963 of a multitudeH1995.
And I DanielH1840 alone sawH7200 the visionH4759: for the menH582 that were with me sawH7200 not the visionH4759; butH61 a greatH1419 quakingH2731 fellH5307 upon them, so that they fledH1272 to hideH2244 themselves.
Therefore I was left aloneH7604, and sawH7200 this greatH1419 visionH4759, and there remainedH7604 no strengthH3581 in me: for my comelinessH1935 was turnedH2015 in me into corruptionH4889, and I retainedH6113 no strengthH3581. {comeliness: or, vigour}
Yet heardH8085 I the voiceH6963 of his wordsH1697: and when I heardH8085 the voiceH6963 of his wordsH1697, then was I in a deep sleepH7290 on my faceH6440, and my faceH6440 toward the groundH776.
And, behold, an handH3027 touchedH5060 me, which setH5128 me upon my kneesH1290 and upon the palmsH3709 of my handsH3027. {set: Heb. moved}
And he saidH559 unto me, O DanielH1840, a manH376 greatly belovedH2532, understandH995 the wordsH1697 that I speakH1696 unto thee, and standH5975 uprightH5977: for unto thee am I now sentH7971. And when he had spokenH1696 this wordH1697 unto me, I stoodH5975 tremblingH7460. {greatly…: Heb. of desires} {upright: Heb. upon thy standing}
Then saidH559 he unto me, FearH3372 not, DanielH1840: for from the firstH7223 dayH3117 that thou didst setH5414 thine heartH3820 to understandH995, and to chastenH6031 thyself beforeH6440 thy GodH430, thy wordsH1697 were heardH8085, and I am comeH935 for thy wordsH1697.
But the princeH8269 of the kingdomH4438 of PersiaH6539 withstoodH5975 me oneH259 and twentyH6242 daysH3117: but, lo, MichaelH4317, oneH259 of the chiefH7223 princesH8269, cameH935 to helpH5826 me; and I remainedH3498 there withH681 the kingsH4428 of PersiaH6539. {chief: or, first}
Now I am comeH935 to make thee understandH995 what shall befallH7136 thy peopleH5971 in the latterH319 daysH3117: for yet the visionH2377 is for many daysH3117.
And when he had spokenH1696 such wordsH1697 unto me, I setH5414 my faceH6440 toward the groundH776, and I became dumbH481.
And, behold, one like the similitudeH1823 of the sonsH1121 of menH120 touchedH5060 my lipsH8193: then I openedH6605 my mouthH6310, and spakeH1696, and saidH559 unto him that stoodH5975 before me, O my lordH113, by the visionH4759 my sorrowsH6735 are turnedH2015 upon me, and I have retainedH6113 no strengthH3581.
For howH1963 canH3201 the servantH5650 of this my lordH113 talkH1696 with this my lordH113? for as for me, straightwayH6258 there remainedH5975 no strengthH3581 in me, neither is there breathH5397 leftH7604 in me. {the…: or, this servant of my lord}
Then there came againH3254 and touchedH5060 me one like the appearanceH4758 of a manH120, and he strengthenedH2388 me,
And saidH559, O manH376 greatly belovedH2532, fearH3372 not: peaceH7965 be unto thee, be strongH2388, yea, be strongH2388. And when he had spokenH1696 unto me, I was strengthenedH2388, and saidH559, Let my lordH113 speakH1696; for thou hast strengthenedH2388 me.
Then saidH559 he, KnowestH3045 thou wherefore I comeH935 unto thee? and now will I returnH7725 to fightH3898 with the princeH8269 of PersiaH6539: and when I am gone forthH3318, lo, the princeH8269 of GreciaH3120 shall comeH935.
ButH61 I will shewH5046 thee that which is notedH7559 in the scriptureH3791 of truthH571: and there is noneH259 that holdethH2388 with me in these things, but MichaelH4317 your princeH8269. {holdeth: Heb. strengtheneth himself}
