Then the men went as a group to King Darius. They said to him,“ Your Majesty, remember that no order or command you give can be changed. That’s what the law of the Medes and Persians requires.”

Then these men came by agreement to the king and said to the king,“ Know, O king, that it is a law of the Medes and Persians that no injunction or ordinance that the king establishes can be changed.”

In the evening the men went together to the king and said,“ Your Majesty, you know that according to the law of the Medes and the Persians, no law that the king signs can be changed.”

Now write another decree in the king’s name in behalf of the Jews as seems best to you, and seal it with the king’s signet ring— for no document written in the king’s name and sealed with his ring can be revoked.”

So they went to the king and spoke to him about his royal decree:“ Did you not publish a decree that during the next thirty days anyone who prays to any god or human being except to you, Your Majesty, would be thrown into the lions’ den?” The king answered,“ The decree stands— in accordance with the law of the Medes and Persians, which cannot be repealed.”

Now, Your Majesty, issue the decree and put it in writing so that it cannot be altered— in accordance with the law of the Medes and Persians, which cannot be repealed.”

Can a corrupt throne be allied with you— a throne that brings on misery by its decrees?The wicked band together against the righteous and condemn the innocent to death.
