Daniel 6:24 in Context — Daniel 6

22 Meu Deus enviou seu anjo, que fechou a boca dos leões, para que não me fizessem dano; porque diante dele se achou inocência em mim; e também contra ti, ó rei, não cometi delito algum.

23 Então o rei se alegrou muito por causa dele, e mandou tirar a Daniel da cova; assim Daniel foi tirado da cova, e nenhum dano se achou nele, pois havia confiado em seu Deus.

24 Então o rei mandou trazerem aqueles homens que tinham acusado a Daniel, e foram lançados na cova dos leões, eles, seus filhos, e suas mulheres; e nem sequer haviam chegado ao fundo da cova, quando os leões os tomaram, e quebraram todos os seus ossos.

25 Então o rei Dario escreveu a todos os povos, nações, e línguas, que moram em toda a terra: Paz vos seja multiplicada.

26 De minha parte é feito um decreto, que em todo o domínio de meu reino, [todos] tremam e temam a presença do Deus de Daniel; porque ele é o Deus vivente, que permanece para sempre; seu reino não se pode destruir, e seu domínio [dura] até o fim.
