如此，这但以理，当大利乌王在位的时候和波斯王古列在位的时候，大享亨通。
The Inner Meaning of the Prophets and Psalms # 177
177. Internal Meaning of Daniel, Chapter 6
1-3 [See above, end of chapter v].) (2)
4-9 They deliberated about this, and concluded that they should be worshipped in place of the Lord; (2)
10-17 which decree being gainsaid by those who were of the Lord's church, it was ordained that they should undergo the punishment of the inquisition, which is the lion's den into which Daniel was cast;2 (2)
18-23 but still they were guarded by the Lord, that they might not undergo that punishment; (11)
24 but on the contrary, those who invented that crime were cast into hell, (15)
25-28 and those who were in worship of the Lord were saved. (11)
Daniel 6:18-23
18
Then the king went to his palace, and passed the night fasting; neither were instruments of music brought before him: and his sleep fled from him.
19
Then the king arose very early in the morning, and went in haste to the den of lions.
20
When he came near to the den to Daniel, he cried with a lamentable voice; the king spoke and said to Daniel, Daniel, servant of the living God, is your God, whom you serve continually, able to deliver you from the lions?
21
Then Daniel said to the king, O king, live forever.
22
My God has sent his angel, and has shut the lions' mouths, and they have not hurt me; because as before him innocence was found in me; and also before you, O king, have I done no hurt.
23
Then was the king exceeding glad, and commanded that they should take Daniel up out of the den. So Daniel was taken up out of the den, and no kind of harm was found on him, because he had trusted in his God.
