Kalokhu, nkosi, simemezele isiyalezo, ulobe umbhalo ukuba ungaguqulwa ngokomthetho wamaMede namaPheresiya ongenakuguquka.” Ngokunjalo inkosi uDariyu yayisiloba umbhalo nesiyalezo.

Asondela, akhuluma phambi kwenkosi ngesiyalezo senkosi, athi: “Asithi ulobile isiyalezo sokuthi yilowo nalowo ocela nakumuphi unkulunkulu noma kumuntu ngezinsuku ezingamashumi amathathu, kuphela kuwe nkosi, uyakuphonswa emphandwini wezingonyama na?” Inkosi yaphendula yathi: “Iqinisile leyo nto ngokomthetho wamaMede namaPheresiya ongenakuguquka.” Ayesephendula ethi phambi kwenkosi: “UDaniyeli lowo ongowabathunjwa bakwaJuda akakunaki wena nkosi, nesiyalezo osilobileyo, kepha uyacela isicelo sakhe kathathu ngosuku.” Lapho inkosi isizwile lawa mazwi, yadabuka kakhulu, yayibeka inhliziyo yayo kuDaniyeli ukuba imkhulule, yazama ukumophula kwaze kwaba sekushoneni kwelanga. Ayesebuthana lawo madoda enkosini, athi enkosini: “Yazi, nkosi, ukuthi kungumthetho wamaMede namaPheresiya ukuba kungaguqulwa isiyalezo nesimiso esimiswa yinkosi.” Yayisiyaleza inkosi, walethwa uDaniyeli, waphonswa emphandwini wezingonyama. Inkosi yakhuluma, yathi kuDaniyeli: “UNkulunkulu wakho omkhonza njalo uyakukukhulula.” Kwase kulethwa itshe, labekwa emlonyeni womphandu, inkosi yalinamathelisa ngendandatho yayo nangendandatho yizikhulu zayo, ukuze kungaguqulwa lutho maqondana noDaniyeli. Inkosi yase iya endlini yayo yobukhosi, yadlulisa ubusuku izila; izinkenezo zokubethwa azilethwanga kuyo, nobuthongo bayibalekela.

Lawa madoda athi: “Asiyikuthola cala ngalo Daniyeli, ngaphandle kokuthi silithole kuye ngenxa yomthetho kaNkulunkulu wakhe.” Laba bongameli nezikhulu babuthana enkosini, bathi kuyo: “Nkosi Dariyu, phila kuze kube phakade! Bonke abongameli bombuso, nababusi, nezikhulu, nabeluleki, nababusi, bacebisana ukuba kumiswe isimiso sobukhosi, benze isinqumo esiqinile, sokuthi yilowo nalowo ocela isicelo kunoma yimuphi uNkulunkulu noma acele izinsuku ezingamashumi amathathu, ngaphandle kwakho, nkosi, iyophonswa emphandwini wezingonyama. Khathesi qinisa umthetho, nkosi, usayine umbhalo, ukuze ungaguquki njengomthetho wamaMede lamaPheresiya ongaguqukiyo. Ngakho inkosi uDariyu yawusayina umbhalo nomthetho.

Lapho inkosi isizwa lawa mazwi, yathukuthela kakhulu, yabeka inhliziyo yayo kuDaniyeli ukuba imkhulule; wasebenza kwaze kwashona ilanga ukumkhulula. Lawa madoda ayesebuthana nenkosi, athi enkosini: “Yazi, nkosi, ukuthi umthetho wamaMede namaPheresiya uthi akukho simemezelo nesimiso inkosi esimisayo esingaguqulwa. Khona-ke inkosi yayala, bamletha uDaniyeli, bamphonsa emphandwini wezingonyama. Inkosi yasikhuluma, yathi kuDaniyeli: UNkulunkulu wakho omkhonza njalo, uzakukhulula. Kwalethwa itshe, labekwa phezu komgodi womgodi; inkosi yayisinamathelisa ngendandatho yayo yophawu nangendandatho yophawu lwezikhulu zayo; ukuze kungaguqulwa inhloso ngoDaniyeli. Inkosi yayisingena endlini yayo, yachitha ubusuku izila ukudla; alethwanga izinsimbi zomculo phambi kwakhe, ubuthongo bakhe bamuka kuye.
