Daniel 6:12
Jewish Publication Society 1917 · Berean Standard Bible
Then these men came tumultuously, and found Daniel making petition and supplication before his God.
So they approached the king and asked about his royal decree: “Did you not sign a decree that for thirty days any man who petitions any god or man except you, O king, will be thrown into the den of lions?” The king replied, “According to the law of the Medes and Persians the order stands, and it cannot be repealed.”
