Bel and the Dragon 8-10

Revised Standard Version

⁸ 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. ⁹ 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.”

¹⁰ Now there were seventy priests of Bel, besides their wives and children. And the king went with Daniel into the temple of Bel.
