Daniel 6:19-22
New American Standard Bible
19 Then the king got up at dawn, at the break of day, and went in a hurry to the lions’ den. 20 And when he had come near the den to Daniel, he cried out with a troubled voice. The king began speaking and said to Daniel, “Daniel, servant of the living God, has (A)your God, whom you continually serve, been (B)able to rescue you from the lions?” 21 Then Daniel spoke [a]to the king, “(C)O king, live forever! 22 My God (D)sent His angel and (E)shut the lions’ mouths, and they have not harmed me, since [b]I was found innocent before Him; and also [c]toward you, O king, I have committed no crime.”

New International Version
19 At the first light of dawn, the king got up and hurried to the lions’ den. 20 When he came near the den, he called to Daniel in an anguished voice, “Daniel, servant of the living God, has your God, whom you serve continually, been able to rescue you from the lions?”(A)
21 Daniel answered, “May the king live forever!(B) 22 My God sent his angel,(C) and he shut the mouths of the lions.(D) They have not hurt me, because I was found innocent in his sight.(E) Nor have I ever done any wrong before you, Your Majesty.”
