Daniel 6:8-10

Expanded Bible

⁸ Now, O king, ·make the law [enforce the edict] and sign ·your name to it [^Lthe document] so that it cannot be changed, because then it will be a law of the Medes and Persians and cannot be canceled.” ⁹ So King Darius signed the ·law [^Ldocument and edict].

¹⁰ Even though Daniel knew that the ·new law [document] had been ·written [signed], he went to pray in an upstairs room in his house, which had windows that opened toward Jerusalem. Three times each day Daniel would kneel down to pray and ·thank [praise] God, just as he always had done [1 Kin. 8:35–36; Ps. 55:17].
