Daniel 6:8-10

New International Reader's Version

⁸ Now give the order. Write it down in the law of the Medes and Persians. Then it can’t be changed.” ⁹ So King Darius put the order in writing.

¹⁰ Daniel found out that the king had signed the order. In spite of that, he did just as he had always done before. He went home to his upstairs room. Its windows opened toward Jerusalem. He went to his room three times a day to pray. He got down on his knees and gave thanks to his God.
