signed Wherefore king Darius {signed} the writing and
the

decree.

signed Now when Daniel knew that the writing was

{signed}, he went into his house; and his windows being open in
his

chamber toward Jerusalem, he kneeled upon his knees three times a

day, and prayed, and gave thanks before his God, as he did af

oretime.

signed Then they came near, and spake before the king

concerning the king's decree; Hast thou not {signed} a decree,
that

every man that shall ask [a petition] of any God or man within

thirty days, save of thee, O king, shall be cast into the d

en of lions? The king answered and said, The thing [is] true,

according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which altereth
not.

signed Then answered they and said before the king,
That

Daniel, which [is] of the children of the captivity of Judah,

regardeth not thee, O king, nor the decree that thou hast
{signed},

but maketh his petition three times a day.
