但以理書 6
Chinese Union Version Modern Punctuation (Traditional)
大流士王立但以理為三總長之一
6 大流士隨心所願，立一百二十個總督，治理通國。 2 又在他們以上立總長三人，但以理在其中，使總督在他們三人面前回覆事務，免得王受虧損。 3 因這但以理有美好的靈性，所以顯然超乎其餘的總長和總督，王又想立他治理通國。
眾臣妒但以理欲尋隙訟之
4 那時總長和總督尋找但以理誤國的把柄，為要參他，只是找不著他的錯誤過失，因他忠心辦事，毫無錯誤過失。 5 那些人便說：「我們要找參這但以理的把柄，除非在他神的律法中，就尋不著。」
奏請降詔諭民三旬內唯王是求
6 於是，總長和總督紛紛聚集來見王，說：「願大流士王萬歲！ 7 國中的總長、欽差、總督、謀士和巡撫彼此商議，要立一條堅定的禁令[a]，三十日內，不拘何人，若在王以外，或向神或向人求什麼，就必扔在獅子坑中。 8 王啊，現在求你立這禁令，加蓋玉璽，使禁令決不更改，照瑪代和波斯人的例是不可更改的。」 9 於是大流士王立這禁令，加蓋玉璽。
但以理仍日三次禱告神
10 但以理知道這禁令蓋了玉璽，就到自己家裡（他樓上的窗戶開向耶路撒冷），一日三次雙膝跪在他神面前禱告感謝，與素常一樣。 11 那些人就紛紛聚集，見但以理在他神面前祈禱懇求。 12 他們便進到王前，提王的禁令，說：「王啊，三十日內不拘何人，若在王以外，或向神或向人求什麼，必被扔在獅子坑中。王不是在這禁令上蓋了玉璽嗎？」王回答說：「實有這事，照瑪代和波斯人的例是不可更改的。」 13 他們對王說：「王啊，那被擄之猶大人中的但以理不理你，也不遵你蓋了玉璽的禁令，他竟一日三次祈禱。」 14 王聽見這話就甚愁煩，一心要救但以理，籌劃解救他，直到日落的時候。 15 那些人就紛紛聚集來見王，說：「王啊，當知道瑪代人和波斯人有例，凡王所立的禁令和律例都不可更改。」
王依禁令投之於獅坑
16 王下令，人就把但以理帶來，扔在獅子坑中。王對但以理說：「你所常侍奉的神，他必救你。」 17 有人搬石頭放在坑口，王用自己的璽和大臣的印封閉那坑，使懲辦但以理的事毫無更改。 18 王回宮，終夜禁食，無人拿樂器到他面前，並且睡不著覺。
主護但以理不為獅傷
19 次日黎明王就起來，急忙往獅子坑那裡去。 20 臨近坑邊，哀聲呼叫但以理，對但以理說：「永生神的僕人但以理啊，你所常侍奉的神能救你脫離獅子嗎？」 21 但以理對王說：「願王萬歲！ 22 我的神差遣使者封住獅子的口，叫獅子不傷我，因我在神面前無辜，我在王面前也沒有行過虧損的事。」 23 王就甚喜樂，吩咐人將但以理從坑裡繫上來。於是但以理從坑裡被繫上來，身上毫無傷損，因為信靠他的神。
訟但以理者遭報見噬
24 王下令，人就把那些控告但以理的人連他們的妻子、兒女都帶來，扔在獅子坑中。他們還沒有到坑底，獅子就抓住[b]他們，咬碎他們的骨頭。
王諭全國敬畏神
25 那時大流士王傳旨，曉諭住在全地，各方、各國、各族的人說：「願你們大享平安！ 26 現在我降旨曉諭我所統轄的全國人民，要在但以理的神面前戰兢恐懼。因為他是永遠長存的活神，他的國永不敗壞，他的權柄永存無極。 27 他護庇人，搭救人，在天上地下施行神蹟奇事，救了但以理脫離獅子的口。」
28 如此，這但以理當大流士王在位的時候和波斯王居魯士在位的時候，大享亨通。

但以理在狮子坑
6 大流士决定设立一百二十个总督治理全国。 2 总督之上，设三个总长，以维护王的统治，但以理是其中之一。 3 因为但以理有非凡的心智，远超过其他总长和总督，王便考虑让他治理全国。 4 于是，其他总长和总督想在但以理的政务中找把柄控告他，却找不到任何把柄或过失，因为他诚实可靠，毫无过失。 5 最后他们说：“除非我们从但以理上帝的律法下手，否则找不到指控他的把柄。”
6 于是，这些总长和总督齐来见王，说：“愿大流士王万岁！ 7 所有总长、行政官、总督、谋士和省长都认为王应该下一道禁令，三十天内，任何人不得向王以外的神明或人祷告，违者必被扔进狮子坑。 8 王啊，求你颁布、签署这道禁令，使之不可更改，正如玛代人和波斯人的律令是不可更改的。” 9 于是大流士王签署了这道禁令。
10 但以理知道王签署禁令后，就回到家里。他楼上的窗户朝向耶路撒冷，他像往常一样每日三次跪下向上帝祷告、感恩。 11 那些官员一同来了，发现但以理向他的上帝祷告、祈求， 12 便去见王，提及王的禁令，说：“王啊，你不是签署禁令，三十天内，任何人不得向王以外的神明或人祷告，违者必被扔进狮子坑吗？”王说：“确有此事，按照玛代人和波斯人的律，这禁令不可更改。” 13 他们对王说：“王啊，被掳来的犹大人但以理不理会你和你的禁令，仍一日三次向他的上帝祈祷。” 14 王听了这些话，十分愁烦，一心想救但以理，直到日落都在筹划解救之道。 15 那些人齐来见王，说：“王啊，按照玛代人和波斯人的律，王颁布的禁令和律例是不可更改的。”
16 王便下令把但以理带来扔进狮子坑。他对但以理说：“愿你忠心事奉的上帝拯救你！” 17 坑口用大石封住，并加上王和大臣的封印，使惩办但以理的事不可更改。 18 王回宫后，整夜禁食，拒绝娱乐，无法入睡。
19 次日黎明，王起来匆忙赶往狮子坑， 20 到了坑边，凄声呼喊但以理：“永活上帝的仆人但以理啊，你忠心事奉的上帝有没有救你脱离狮子的口？” 21 但以理对王说：“愿王万岁！ 22 我的上帝差遣天使封住了狮子的口，不让它们伤害我，因为我在上帝面前是清白的。王啊，我在你面前也没有过错。” 23 王非常高兴，便命人把但以理从坑中拉上来。于是，但以理从坑中被拉了上来，他因为信靠他的上帝，身上毫无损伤。 24 王下令把那些恶意控告但以理的人及其儿女妻子都带来，扔进狮子坑。他们还没到坑底，狮子便扑上去，咬碎了他们的骨头。
25 后来，大流士王传谕境内的各族、各邦、各语种的人，说：“愿你们大享平安！ 26 我下令，我统治的国民都要敬畏但以理的上帝，
“因为祂是永活长存的上帝，
祂的国度永不灭亡，
祂的统治直到永远。
27 祂庇护、拯救，
在天上地下行神迹奇事，
救但以理脱离狮子的口。”
28 因此，在大流士和波斯人塞鲁士执政期间，但以理凡事亨通。

但以理在獅子坑
6 大流士決定設立一百二十個總督治理全國。 2 總督之上，設三個總長，以維護王的統治，但以理是其中之一。 3 因為但以理有非凡的心智，遠超過其他總長和總督，王便考慮讓他治理全國。 4 於是，其他總長和總督想在但以理的政務中找把柄控告他，卻找不到任何把柄或過失，因為他誠實可靠，毫無過失。 5 最後他們說：「除非我們從但以理上帝的律法下手，否則找不到指控他的把柄。」
6 於是，這些總長和總督齊來見王，說：「願大流士王萬歲！ 7 所有總長、行政官、總督、謀士和省長都認為王應該下一道禁令，三十天內，任何人不得向王以外的神明或人禱告，違者必被扔進獅子坑。 8 王啊，求你頒佈、簽署這道禁令，使之不可更改，正如瑪代人和波斯人的律令是不可更改的。」 9 於是大流士王簽署了這道禁令。
10 但以理知道王簽署禁令後，就回到家裡。他樓上的窗戶朝向耶路撒冷，他像往常一樣每日三次跪下向上帝禱告、感恩。 11 那些官員一同來了，發現但以理向他的上帝禱告、祈求， 12 便去見王，提及王的禁令，說：「王啊，你不是簽署禁令，三十天內，任何人不得向王以外的神明或人禱告，違者必被扔進獅子坑嗎？」王說：「確有此事，按照瑪代人和波斯人的律，這禁令不可更改。」 13 他們對王說：「王啊，被擄來的猶大人但以理不理會你和你的禁令，仍一日三次向他的上帝祈禱。」 14 王聽了這些話，十分愁煩，一心想救但以理，直到日落都在籌畫解救之道。 15 那些人齊來見王，說：「王啊，按照瑪代人和波斯人的律，王頒佈的禁令和律例是不可更改的。」
16 王便下令把但以理帶來扔進獅子坑。他對但以理說：「願你忠心事奉的上帝拯救你！」 17 坑口用大石封住，並加上王和大臣的封印，使懲辦但以理的事不可更改。 18 王回宮後，整夜禁食，拒絕娛樂，無法入睡。
19 次日黎明，王起來匆忙趕往獅子坑， 20 到了坑邊，淒聲呼喊但以理：「永活上帝的僕人但以理啊，你忠心事奉的上帝有沒有救你脫離獅子的口？」 21 但以理對王說：「願王萬歲！ 22 我的上帝差遣天使封住了獅子的口，不讓牠們傷害我，因為我在上帝面前是清白的。王啊，我在你面前也沒有過錯。」 23 王非常高興，便命人把但以理從坑中拉上來。於是，但以理從坑中被拉了上來，他因為信靠他的上帝，身上毫無損傷。 24 王下令把那些惡意控告但以理的人及其兒女妻子都帶來，扔進獅子坑。他們還沒到坑底，獅子便撲上去，咬碎了他們的骨頭。
25 後來，大流士王傳諭境內的各族、各邦、各語種的人，說：「願你們大享平安！ 26 我下令，我統治的國民都要敬畏但以理的上帝，
「因為祂是永活長存的上帝，
祂的國度永不滅亡，
祂的統治直到永遠。
27 祂庇護、拯救，
在天上地下行神蹟奇事，
救但以理脫離獅子的口。」
28 因此，在大流士和波斯人塞魯士執政期間，但以理凡事亨通。
Daniel 6
King James Version
6 It pleased Darius to set over the kingdom an hundred and twenty princes, which should be over the whole kingdom;
2 And over these three presidents; of whom Daniel was first: that the princes might give accounts unto them, and the king should have no damage.
3 Then this Daniel was preferred above the presidents and princes, because an excellent spirit was in him; and the king thought to set him over the whole realm.
4 Then the presidents and princes sought to find occasion against Daniel concerning the kingdom; but they could find none occasion nor fault; forasmuch as he was faithful, neither was there any error or fault found in him.
5 Then said these men, We shall not find any occasion against this Daniel, except we find it against him concerning the law of his God.
6 Then these presidents and princes assembled together to the king, and said thus unto him, King Darius, live for ever.
7 All the presidents of the kingdom, the governors, and the princes, the counsellors, and the captains, have consulted together to establish a royal statute, and to make a firm decree, that whosoever shall ask a petition of any God or man for thirty days, save of thee, O king, he shall be cast into the den of lions.
8 Now, O king, establish the decree, and sign the writing, that it be not changed, according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which altereth not.
9 Wherefore king Darius signed the writing and the decree.
10 Now when Daniel knew that the writing was signed, he went into his house; and his windows being open in his chamber toward Jerusalem, he kneeled upon his knees three times a day, and prayed, and gave thanks before his God, as he did aforetime.
11 Then these men assembled, and found Daniel praying and making supplication before his God.
12 Then they came near, and spake before the king concerning the king's decree; Hast thou not signed a decree, that every man that shall ask a petition of any God or man within thirty days, save of thee, O king, shall be cast into the den of lions? The king answered and said, The thing is true, according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which altereth not.
13 Then answered they and said before the king, That Daniel, which is of the children of the captivity of Judah, regardeth not thee, O king, nor the decree that thou hast signed, but maketh his petition three times a day.
14 Then the king, when he heard these words, was sore displeased with himself, and set his heart on Daniel to deliver him: and he laboured till the going down of the sun to deliver him.
15 Then these men assembled unto the king, and said unto the king, Know, O king, that the law of the Medes and Persians is, That no decree nor statute which the king establisheth may be changed.
16 Then the king commanded, and they brought Daniel, and cast him into the den of lions. Now the king spake and said unto Daniel, Thy God whom thou servest continually, he will deliver thee.
17 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.
18 Then the king went to his palace, and passed the night fasting: neither were instruments of musick brought before him: and his sleep went from him.
19 Then the king arose very early in the morning, and went in haste unto the den of lions.
20 And when he came to the den, he cried with a lamentable voice unto Daniel: and the king spake and said to Daniel, O Daniel, servant of the living God, is thy God, whom thou servest continually, able to deliver thee from the lions?
21 Then said Daniel unto the king, O king, live for ever.
22 My God hath sent his angel, and hath shut the lions' mouths, that they have not hurt me: forasmuch as before him innocency was found in me; and also before thee, O king, have I done no hurt.
23 Then was the king exceedingly 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.
25 Then king Darius wrote unto all people, nations, and languages, that dwell in all the earth; Peace be multiplied unto you.
26 I make a decree, That in every dominion of my kingdom men tremble and fear before the God of Daniel: for he is the living God, and stedfast for ever, and his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed, and his dominion shall be even unto the end.
27 He delivereth and rescueth, and he worketh signs and wonders in heaven and in earth, who hath delivered Daniel from the power of the lions.
28 So this Daniel prospered in the reign of Darius, and in the reign of Cyrus the Persian.
