When King Astyages was buried with his ancestors, Cyrus the Persian took over his kingdom.
Daniel was a companion of the king, honored above all Cyrus’ political advisors.
Now the Babylonians had an idol named Bel. Each day they supplied it with twelve bushels of fine flour, forty sheep, and sixty gallons of wine.
The king honored Bel and worshipped it daily, but Daniel worshipped his own God. So the king said to him, “Why don’t you worship Bel?”
He said, “I don’t honor idols made by humans, rather the living God who created heaven and earth and has authority over all living things.”
The king said to him, “You believe Bel is a living god, don’t you? Haven’t you seen how much he eats and drinks every day?”
Daniel laughed and said, “Don’t be taken in, Your Majesty! This is clay on the inside and brass on the outside. It hasn’t eaten or drunk anything, ever!”
Furious, the king called for his priests. He said to them,“If you don’t tell me who eats these provisions, you die! But if you can prove that Bel eats them, Daniel will die for insulting Bel.”
Daniel said to the king,“That’s fair enough.” Now Bel had seventy priests plus their wives and children.
The king went with Daniel to Bel’s temple.
Bel’s priests said, “We’re going outside now. Your Majesty, you set out the food and mix the wine. Lock the door and seal it with your own seal. Early tomorrow, if you don’t find that Bel has eaten everything, you can kill us. Otherwise, kill Daniel for lying about us!”
( The priests weren’t worried because they had made a hidden entrance under the table, which they regularly used to enter to eat everything.)
When the priests went out, the king set out Bel’s food.
But Daniel ordered his servants to bring ashes and sprinkle the whole temple, with only the king watching. Then everyone went out, locked the door, sealed it with the king’s seal, and left.
The priests came that night, as usual, with their wives and children, and ate and drank everything.
The king and Daniel got up very early the next morning.
The king said,“Are the seals unbroken, Daniel?” He answered,“Unbroken, Your Majesty.”
As soon as the doors were opened, the king looked at the table and yelled,“You are great, Bel! There’s nothing fake about you!”
But Daniel laughed and held the king back from going in. He said,“Look at the floor. Whose tracks are these?”
The king said,“I see the footprints of men, women, and children!”
Then the king became angry. He arrested the priests, their wives, and children. They showed him the hidden doors through which they regularly entered to eat what was on the table.
The king killed them and handed Bel over to Daniel, who tore it and its temple down.
Now there was a big snake that the Babylonians worshipped.
The king said to Daniel,“You can’t say that this one isn’t a living god. So worship it!”
Daniel said,“I will keep worshipping the Lord my God, because he is a living God. But, Your Majesty, just give me permission, and I’ll kill the snake without using a sword or stick!”
The king said,“I give you permission.”
Then Daniel took tar and cooking grease and hair. He boiled them down, made patties, and put them into the snake’s mouth. The snake swallowed them and burst open. Daniel said,“Look at what you have been worshipping!”
When the Babylonians heard what happened, they were very angry. They came together as a mob and started toward the king, saying,“The king has become a Jew! He’s torn down Bel, killed the snake, and murdered the priests!”
When they reached the king, they said,“Hand Daniel over to us! If you don’t, we’ll kill you and your family!”
The king saw that he was in a bind and was forced to hand Daniel over to them.
They threw Daniel into a pit of lions. He was there six days.
There were seven lions in the pit. Usually they were fed two bodies and two sheep daily, but now they were fed nothing so that they would devour Daniel.
At the same time, the prophet Habakkuk was in Judah. He had boiled a stew, put some bread in a bowl, and was carrying it to the people harvesting the field.
But the Lord’s angel said to Habakkuk,“Take this lunch to Babylon, to Daniel in the lions’ pit.”
Habakkuk said,“Lord, I’ve never seen Babylon, and I’m not familiar with that pit.”
So the Lord’s angel lifted Habakkuk by his hair and brought him in a rush of wind to Babylon, right above the pit.
Habakkuk yelled,“Daniel! Daniel! Take the lunch that God has sent to you!”
Daniel said,“God, you remembered me! You don’t abandon the people who love you.”
Daniel got up and ate, while God’s angel took Habakkuk instantly back to his own place.
On the seventh day the king came to the pit to grieve for Daniel. He looked in, and there was Daniel, sitting there!
Then the king shouted out loud, “You are great, Lord, Daniel’s God! There’s no other but you!”
He pulled Daniel out. But he threw the ones who had planned Daniel’s destruction into the pit, and they were eaten instantly, right in front of him.
When King Astyages was laid to rest with his ancestors, Cyrus the Persian succeeded to his kingdom.
Daniel was a companion of the king, and was the most honoured of all his friends.
Now the Babylonians had an idol called Bel, and every day they provided for it twelve bushels of choice flour and forty sheep and six measures of wine.
The king revered it and went every day to worship it. But Daniel worshipped his own God. So the king said to him, ‘Why do you not worship Bel?’
He answered, ‘Because I do not revere idols made with hands, but the living God, who created heaven and earth and has dominion over all living creatures.’
The king said to him, ‘Do you not think that Bel is a living god? Do you not see how much he eats and drinks every day?’
And Daniel laughed, and said, ‘Do not be deceived, O king, for this thing is only clay inside and bronze outside, and it never ate or drank anything.’
Then the king was angry and called the priests of Bel and said to them, ‘If you do not tell me who is eating these provisions, you shall die.
But if you prove that Bel is eating them, Daniel shall die, because he has spoken blasphemy against Bel.’ Daniel said to the king, ‘Let it be done as you have said.’
Now there were seventy priests of Bel, besides their wives and children. So the king went with Daniel into the temple of Bel.
The priests of Bel said, ‘See, we are now going outside; you yourself, O king, set out the food and prepare the wine, and shut the door and seal it with your signet.
When you return in the morning, if you do not find that Bel has eaten it all, we will die; otherwise Daniel will, who is telling lies about us.’
They were unconcerned, for beneath the table they had made a hidden entrance, through which they used to go in regularly and consume the provisions.
After they had gone out, the king set out the food for Bel. Then Daniel ordered his servants to bring ashes, and they scattered them throughout the whole temple in the presence of the king alone. Then they went out, shut the door and sealed it with the king’s signet, and departed.
During the night the priests came as usual, with their wives and children, and they ate and drank everything.
Early in the morning the king rose and came, and Daniel with him.
The king said, ‘Are the seals unbroken, Daniel?’ He answered, ‘They are unbroken, O king.’
As soon as the doors were opened, the king looked at the table, and shouted in a loud voice, ‘You are great, O Bel, and in you there is no deceit at all!’
But Daniel laughed and restrained the king from going in. ‘Look at the floor’, he said, ‘and notice whose footprints these are.’
The king said, ‘I see the footprints of men and women and children.’
Then the king was enraged, and he arrested the priests and their wives and children. They showed him the secret doors through which they used to enter to consume what was on the table.
Therefore the king put them to death, and gave Bel over to Daniel, who destroyed it and its temple.
Now in that place there was a great dragon, which the Babylonians revered.
The king said to Daniel, ‘You cannot deny that this is a living god; so worship him.’
Daniel said, ‘I worship the Lord my God, for he is the living God.
But give me permission, O king, and I will kill the dragon without sword or club.’ The king said, ‘I give you permission.’
Then Daniel took pitch, fat, and hair, and boiled them together and made cakes, which he fed to the dragon. The dragon ate them, and burst open. Then Daniel said, ‘See what you have been worshipping!’
When the Babylonians heard about it, they were very indignant and conspired against the king, saying, ‘The king has become a Jew; he has destroyed Bel, and killed the dragon, and slaughtered the priests.’
Going to the king, they said, ‘Hand Daniel over to us, or else we will kill you and your household.’
The king saw that they were pressing him hard, and under compulsion he handed Daniel over to them.
They threw Daniel into the lions’ den, and he was there for six days.
There were seven lions in the den, and every day they had been given two human bodies and two sheep; but now they were given nothing, so that they would devour Daniel.
Now the prophet Habakkuk was in Judea; he had made a stew and had broken bread into a bowl, and was going into the field to take it to the reapers.
But the angel of the Lord said to Habakkuk, ‘Take the food that you have to Babylon, to Daniel, in the lions’ den.’
Habakkuk said, ‘Sir, I have never seen Babylon, and I know nothing about the den.’
Then the angel of the Lord took him by the crown of his head and carried him by his hair; with the speed of the wind he set him down in Babylon, right over the den.
Then Habakkuk shouted, ‘Daniel, Daniel! Take the food that God has sent you.’
Daniel said, ‘You have remembered me, O God, and have not forsaken those who love you.’
So Daniel got up and ate. And the angel of God immediately returned Habakkuk to his own place.
On the seventh day the king came to mourn for Daniel. When he came to the den he looked in, and there sat Daniel!
The king shouted with a loud voice, ‘You are great, O Lord, the God of Daniel, and there is no other besides you!’
Then he pulled Daniel out, and threw into the den those who had attempted his destruction, and they were instantly eaten before his eyes.
When King Astyages was laid to rest with his ancestors, Cyrus the Persian succeeded to his kingdom.
Daniel was a companion of the king and was the most honored of all his Friends.

Then Daniel took pitch, fat, and hair and boiled them together and made cakes, which he fed to the dragon. The dragon ate them and burst open. Then Daniel said, “See what you have been worshiping!”
When the Babylonians heard about it, they were very indignant and conspired against the king, saying, “The king has become a Jew; he has destroyed Bel and killed the dragon and slaughtered the priests.”
Going to the king, they said, “Hand Daniel over to us, or else we will kill you and your household.”

But the angel of the Lord said to Habakkuk, “Take the food that you have to Babylon, to Daniel, in the lions’ den.”
Habakkuk said, “Sir, I have never seen Babylon, and I know nothing about the den.”
Then the angel of the Lord took him by the crown of his head and carried him by his hair; with a gust of wind he set him down in Babylon, right over the den.
Then Habakkuk shouted, “Daniel, Daniel! Take the food that God has sent you.”
Daniel said, “You have remembered me, O God, and have not abandoned those who love you.”
So Daniel got up and ate. And the angel of God immediately returned Habakkuk to his own place.
On the seventh day the king came to mourn for Daniel. When he came to the den he looked in, and there sat Daniel!
The king shouted with a loud voice, “You are great, O Lord, the God of Daniel, and there is no other besides you!”
Then he pulled Daniel out and threw into the den those who had attempted his destruction, and they were instantly eaten before his eyes.
When King Asty′ages was laid with his fathers, Cyrus the Persian received his kingdom.
And Daniel was a companion of the king, and was the most honored of his friends.
Now the Babylonians had an idol called Bel, and every day they spent on it twelve bushels of fine flour and forty sheep and fifty gallons of wine.
The king revered it and went every day to worship it. But Daniel worshiped his own God.
And the king said to him, “Why do you not worship Bel?” He answered, “Because I do not revere man-made idols, but the living God, who created heaven and earth and has dominion over all flesh.”
The king said to him, “Do you not think that Bel is a living God? Do you not see how much he eats and drinks every day?”
Then Daniel laughed, and said, “Do not be deceived, O king; for this is but clay inside and brass outside, and it never ate or drank anything.”
Then the king was angry, and he called his priests and said to them, “If you do not tell me who is eating these provisions, you shall die.
But if you prove that Bel is eating them, Daniel shall die, because he blasphemed against Bel.” And Daniel said to the king, “Let it be done as you have said.”
Now there were seventy priests of Bel, besides their wives and children. And the king went with Daniel into the temple of Bel.
And the priests of Bel said, “Behold, we are going outside; you yourself, O king, shall set forth the food and mix and place the wine, and shut the door and seal it with your signet.
And when you return in the morning, if you do not find that Bel has eaten it all, we will die; or else Daniel will, who is telling lies about us.”
They were unconcerned, for beneath the table they had made a hidden entrance, through which they used to go in regularly and consume the provisions.
When they had gone out, the king set forth the food for Bel. Then Daniel ordered his servants to bring ashes and they sifted them throughout the whole temple in the presence of the king alone. Then they went out, shut the door and sealed it with the king’s signet, and departed.
In the night the priests came with their wives and children, as they were accustomed to do, and ate and drank everything.
Early in the morning the king rose and came, and Daniel with him.
And the king said, “Are the seals unbroken, Daniel?” He answered, “They are unbroken, O king.”
As soon as the doors were opened, the king looked at the table, and shouted in a loud voice, “You are great, O Bel; and with you there is no deceit, none at all.”
Then Daniel laughed, and restrained the king from going in, and said, “Look at the floor, and notice whose footsteps these are.”
The king said, “I see the footsteps of men and women and children.”
Then the king was enraged, and he seized the priests and their wives and children; and they showed him the secret doors through which they were accustomed to enter and devour what was on the table.
Therefore the king put them to death, and gave Bel over to Daniel, who destroyed it and its temple.
There was also a great dragon, which the Babylonians revered.
And the king said to Daniel, “You cannot deny that this is a living god; so worship him.”
Daniel said, “I will worship the Lord my God, for he is the living God.
But if you, O king, will give me permission, I will slay the dragon without sword or club.” The king said, “I give you permission.”
Then Daniel took pitch, fat, and hair, and boiled them together and made cakes, which he fed to the dragon. The dragon ate them, and burst open. And Daniel said, “See what you have been worshiping!”
When the Babylonians heard it, they were very indignant and conspired against the king, saying, “The king has become a Jew; he has destroyed Bel, and slain the dragon, and slaughtered the priests.”
Going to the king, they said, “Hand Daniel over to us, or else we will kill you and your household.”
The king saw that they were pressing him hard, and under compulsion he handed Daniel over to them.
They threw Daniel into the lions’ den, and he was there for six days.
There were seven lions in the den, and every day they had been given two human bodies and two sheep; but these were not given to them now, so that they might devour Daniel.
Now the prophet Hab′akkuk was in Judea. He had boiled pottage and had broken bread into a bowl, and was going into the field to take it to the reapers.
But the angel of the Lord said to Hab′akkuk, “Take the dinner which you have to Babylon, to Daniel, in the lions’ den.”
Hab′akkuk said, “Sir, I have never seen Babylon, and I know nothing about the den.”
Then the angel of the Lord took him by the crown of his head, and lifted him by his hair and set him down in Babylon, right over the den, with the rushing sound of the wind itself.
Then Hab′akkuk shouted, “Daniel, Daniel! Take the dinner which God has sent you.”
And Daniel said, “Thou hast remembered me, O God, and hast not forsaken those who love thee.”
So Daniel arose and ate. And the angel of God immediately returned Hab′akkuk to his own place.
On the seventh day the king came to mourn for Daniel. When he came to the den he looked in, and there sat Daniel.
And the king shouted with a loud voice, “Thou art great, O Lord God of Daniel, and there is no other besides thee.”
And he pulled Daniel out, and threw into the den the men who had attempted his destruction, and they were devoured immediately before his eyes.
And king Astyages was put to his fathers, and Cyrus of Persia took his realm. [And king Astyages is put to his fathers, and Cyrus of Persia received the kingdom of him.]
Forsooth Daniel ate with the king, and was honoured above all the friends of him. [Forsooth Daniel was meat-frère of the king, and honoured above all the friends of him.]
Also an idol, Bel by name, was at Babylon, and twelve measures of clean flour, of which measures each contained three bushels, and forty sheep, and six measures of wine, that be called amphoras, were spended in it (or were spent upon it) each day. [And an idol, Bel by name, was with (the) men of Babylon, and there were spended in it by all days twelve measures artabis, and one contained three bushels of flour, and forty sheep, and of wine six amphoras.]
And the king worshipped that Bel, and went each day to honour him; certainly Daniel worshipped his God. And the king said to him, Why worshippest thou not Bel? [And the king worshipped him, and went by all days for to honour it; forsooth Daniel honoured his God. And the king said to him, Why honourest thou not Bel?]
Which answered, and said to him, For I worship not idols made by hand, but God living, that made (out) of nought heaven and earth, and hath power of (or over) each flesh. [Which answering saith to him, For I worship not idols made by hand, but (the) living God, that made of nought heaven and earth, and hath power of each flesh.]
And the king said to him, Whether it seemeth not to thee, that Bel is a living god? whether thou seest not, how great things he eateth and drinketh each day? [And the king said to him, Whether Bel is not seen to thee a living God? whether thou seest not, how many things he eateth and drinketh each day?]
And Daniel said laughing, King, err thou not; for why this Bel is (made) of clay within, and of brass withoutforth, and eateth not, (neither drinketh), any time. [And Daniel laughing saith, King, err thou not; this is withinforth of clay, and withoutforth of brass, neither eateth any time, neither drinketh.]
And the king was wroth, and called the priests thereof, and said to them, If ye say not to me, who it is that eateth these costs, either expenses, ye shall die. [And the king wroth called the priests of him, and said to them, No but ye shall say to me, who eateth these gifts, ye shall die.]
Forsooth if ye show that Bel eateth these things, Daniel shall die, for he blasphemed Bel. And Daniel said to the king, Be it done by thy word. [Forsooth if ye shall show for Bel eateth these, Daniel shall die, for he blasphemed Bel. And Daniel said to the king, Be it done after thy word.]
Forsooth the priests of Bel were seventy, besides (their) wives, and little children, either servants, and sons. And the king came with Daniel into the temple of Bel. [Forsooth there were of Bel seventy priests, besides wives, and little children, and sons. And the king with Daniel came into the temple of Bel.]
And the priests of Bel said, Lo! We shall go out, and thou, king, set (forth) (the) meats, and meddle (or mix) (the) wine, and close thou the door, and aseal it with thy ring. [And priests of Bel said, Lo! We shall go out, and thou, king, put meats, and mingle wine, and shut the door, and seal it with thy ring.]
And when thou comest (in) early, if thou findest not all things eaten of (or by) Bel, we shall die by death, either Daniel shall die, that lied against us. [And when thou shalt come in early, no but thou shalt find all things eaten of Bel, by death we shall die, or Daniel, that lied against us.]
Soothly they trusted, for they had made a privy entering under the board (or And they were confident, for they had made a secret entrance under the table), and by it they entered ever (or repeatedly), and devoured those things. [Forsooth they despised, or set at nought, (or thought nothing of it), for they had made an hid entering (or a hidden entrance) under the board, and thereby they entered (for)evermore, and devoured those things.]
Forsooth it was done, after that they went out, and the king setted (forth) (the) meats before Bel, Daniel commanded to his children (or to his servants), and they brought ashes, and he riddled (them) through(out) all the temple, before the king (alone). And (then) they went out, and closed the door, and asealed (it) with the ring of the king, and went forth. [Forsooth it is done, after that they went out, and the king putted meats before Bel, Daniel commanded his children, and they brought to ashes, and by all the temple he riddled before the king. And they gone out closed the door, and sealing with ring of the king went away.]
But the priests entered in the night, by their custom, and the wives, and (the) children of them, and ate and drank all things. [Soothly the priests went in in night, after their custom, and wives, and sons of them, and ate all the things, and drank.]
Forsooth the king rose most early, and Daniel with him. [Soothly the king rose in the highest spring of day, and Daniel with him.]
And the king said, Daniel, whether the seals be safe? And he answered, King, those (or they) be safe. [And the king saith, Daniel, whether the seals be safe? Which answered, King, safe.]
And anon (or at once) when they had opened the door, the king beheld the board (or he looked at the table), and he cried on high with a great (or with a loud) voice, Bel, thou art great, and no guile is at thee. [And anon when they had opened the door, the king beheld the board, and he cried with great voice, Great art thou, Bel, and no guile is with thee.]
And Daniel laughed, and he held the king, (so) that he entered not within. And Daniel said, Lo! the pavement, perceive thou whose steps these be. [And Daniel laughed, and he held the king, lest he entered withinforth; and said, Lo! the pavement, perceive whose steps these be.]
And the king said, I see (the) steps of men, and of women, and of young children. And the king was wroth. [And the king said, I see steps of men, and women, and young children. And the king is wroth.]
Then the king took (hold of) the priests, and the wives, and (the) children of them; and they showed to him (the) little privy doors, by which they entered, and wasted those things that were on the board (and they showed him the secret doors, by which they entered, and consumed those things that were on the table). [Then the king caught the priests, and wives, and sons of them; and they showed to him (the) small doors hid(den), by whom they entered, and wasted what things were on the board.]
Therefore the king killed them, and betook Bel into the power of Daniel, which destroyed that Bel, and his temple. [Therefore the king slew them, and betook Bel into power of Daniel, which destroyed him, and his temple.]
And a great dragon (or a large snake) was (also) in that place, and (the) Babylonians worshipped it. [And a great dragon was in that place, and men of Babylonia worshipped him.]
And the king said to Daniel, Lo! now thou mayest not say, that this is not a quick (or a living) god; therefore worship thou him. [And the king said to Daniel, Lo! now thou mayest not say, that this is not god living; therefore worship him.]
And Daniel said to the king, I worship my Lord God, for he is God living. [And Daniel said to the king, I worship the Lord my God, for he is (the) living God.]
But thou, king, give power to me, and I shall slay the dragon (or I will kill the snake), without sword or staff. And the king said, I give (leave) to thee. [Thou forsooth, king, give to me power, that I slay the dragon, without sword and staff. And the king saith, I give to thee.]
Therefore Daniel took pitch, and tallow, and hairs, and seethed (them) together; and he made gobbets, and gave (them) into the mouth of the dragon, and the dragon was all-broken. And Daniel said, Lo! whom ye worship. (And so Daniel took pitch, and fat, and hair, and boiled it all up, and he made lumps of it, and put it into the mouth of the snake, and the snake burst apart. And Daniel said, Behold! whom or what ye worship.) [Therefore Daniel took pitch, and fatness, and hairs, and seethed together; and he made gobbets, and gave into the mouth of the dragon, and the dragon is burst. And Daniel said, Lo! whom ye worship.]
And when (the) Babylonians had heard this thing, they had indignation greatly; and they were gathered (together) against the king, and said, The king is made a Jew; he destroyed Bel, and killed the dragon (or the snake), and slew the priests. [Which thing when men of Babylonia heard, they had indignation greatly; and they be gathered against the king, and said, The king is made a Jew; he destroyed Bel, and slew the dragon, and killed priests.]
And they said, when they were come to the king, Betake thou to us Daniel, that destroyed Bel, and killed the dragon (or the snake); (or) else we shall slay thee, and thine house. [And they said, when they came to the king, Give to us Daniel, that destroyed Bel, and slew the dragon; else we shall slay thee, and thine house.]
Therefore the king saw, that they fell in on him greatly; and he was compelled by need, and he betook Daniel to them. [Therefore the king saw, that they fell into him greatly; and by need he constrained, gave to them Daniel.]
Which sent him into the pit of lions, and he was there (for) seven days. [Which sent him into the lake of lions, and he was there seven days.]
Certainly seven lions were in the pit, and two bodies and two sheep were given to them each day. And then those were not given to them, (so) that they should devour Daniel. [Forsooth in the lake were seven lions, and each day two bodies and two sheep were given to them. And then they were not given to them, that they should devour Daniel.]
Forsooth Habakkuk, the prophet, was in Judea, and he had sodden pottage, and had set in loaves in a little pannier, (and had put some loaves in a little basket or bowl); and he went into the field, to bear (it) to (the) reapers. [Forsooth Habakkuk was a prophet in Judea, and he had sodden pottage, and had set in loaves in a little vessel, and went into the field, for to bear to reapers.]
And the angel of the Lord said to Habakkuk, Bear thou the meat (or Take the meal), which thou hast, into Babylon, to Daniel, which is in the pit of (the) lions. [And an angel of the Lord said to Habakkuk, Bear thou the meat, that thou hast, into Babylon, to Daniel, that is in the lake of lions.]
And Habakkuk said, Lord, I saw not Babylon, and I knew not (where) the pit (is). [And Habakkuk said, Lord, I saw not Babylon, and I know not the lake.]
And the angel of the Lord took him by his top, and bare him by the hair of his head; and set him (down) in Babylon, on (or above) the pit, in the fierceness of his spirit. [And the angel of the Lord took him in the poll of him, and put him in Babylon, on the lake, in birr of his spirit.]
And Habakkuk cried, and said, Daniel, the servant of God, take thou the meat (or the meal), that God hath sent to thee. [And Habakkuk cried, saying, Daniel, servant of God, take thou the meat, that God sent to thee.]
And Daniel said, Lord God, thou hast mind on me, and hast not forsaken them that love thee. [And Daniel saith, Lord God, thou hast mind of me, and forsakest not men loving thee.]
And Daniel rose, and ate; certainly the angel of the Lord restored Habakkuk anon (or at once) in his (own) place (again). [And Daniel rising ate; forsooth the angel of the Lord restored anon Habakkuk in his place.]
Therefore the king came in (or on) the seventh day to bewail Daniel; and he came to the pit, and looked in, and lo! Daniel (was) sitting in the midst of (the) lions. [Therefore the king came in the seventh day for to wail Daniel; and he came to the lake, and looked within, and lo! Daniel sitting in the middle of lions.]
(And) The king cried on high with (a) great (or with a loud) voice, and said, Lord God of Daniel, thou art great; [And the king cried with (a) great voice, saying, Great art thou, Lord God of Daniel;]
and the king drew him out of the pit. Certainly he sent into the pit them, that were (the) cause of his perdition, and they were devoured in a moment before him. [and drew out him of the lake. Forsooth he sent into the lake them, that were cause of his perdition, and they be devoured in a moment before him.]
Then the king said, They that dwell in all the earth, dread the God of Daniel, for he is God living into worlds (or he is the living God forevermore); he is (the) deliverer, and (the) Saviour, doing miracles and marvels in heaven and in earth, that delivered Daniel from the pit of (the) lions. [Then the king saith, Men dwelling in all earth, dread the God of Daniel; for he is deliverer, and saver, doing signs and miracles in heaven and in earth, that delivered Daniel of the lake of lions.]
