Bel and the Dragon 1:31
King James VersionSource notes
“Who cast him into the lions’ den: where he was six days.”
Context
28When they of Babylon heard that, they took great indignation, and conspired against the king, saying, The king is become a Jew, and he hath destroyed Bel, he hath slain the dragon, and put the priests to death.
29So they came to the king, and said, Deliver us Daniel, or else we will destroy thee and thine house.
30Now when the king saw that they pressed him sore, being constrained, he delivered Daniel unto them:
31Who cast him into the lions’ den: where he was six days.
32And in the den there were seven lions, and they had given them every day two carcases, and two sheep: which then were not given to them, to the intent they might devour Daniel.
33Now there was in Jewry a prophet, called Habbacuc, who had made pottage, and had broken bread in a bowl, and was going into the field, for to bring it to the reapers.
34But the angel of the Lord said unto Habbacuc, Go, carry the dinner that thou hast into Babylon unto Daniel, who is in the lions’ den.
