Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
1It seemed good to Darius, and he appointed over the kingdom a hundred and twenty governors to be over his whole kingdom.
1大流士 随心所愿，立一百二十个总督，治理通国。
2And three princes over them, of whom Daniel was one: that the governors might give an account to them, and the king might have no trouble.
2又在他们以上立总长三人（ 但以理 在其中），使总督在他们三人面前回复事务，免得王受亏损。
3And Daniel excelled all the princes, and governors: because a greater spirit of God was in him.
3因这 但以理 有美好的灵性，所以显然超乎其余的总长和总督，王又想立他治理通国。
4And the king thought to set him over all the kingdom: whereupon the princes, and the governors sought to find occasion against Daniel with regard to the king: and they could find no cause, nor suspicion, because he was faithful, and no fault, nor suspicion was found in him.
4那时，总长和总督寻找 但以理 误国的把柄，为要参他；只是找不着他的错误过失，因他忠心办事，毫无错误过失。
5Then these men said: We shall not find any occasion against this Daniel, unless perhaps concerning the law of his God.
5那些人便说：「我们要找参这 但以理 的把柄，除非在他 神的律法中就寻不着。」
6Then the princes, and the governors craftily suggested to the king, and spoke thus unto him: King Darius, live for ever:
6于是，总长和总督纷纷聚集来见王，说：「愿 大流士 王万岁！
7All the princes of the kingdom, the magistrates, and governors, the senators, and judges have consulted together, that an imperial decree, and an edict be published: That whosoever shall ask any petition of any god, or man, for thirty days, but of thee, O king, shall be cast into the den of lions.
7国中的总长、钦差、总督、谋士，和巡抚彼此商议，要立一条坚定的禁令，三十日内，不拘何人，若在王以外，或向神或向人求什么，就必扔在狮子坑中。
8Now, therefore, O king, confirm the sentence, and sign the decree: that what is decreed by the Medes and Persians may not be altered, nor any man be allowed to transgress it.
8王啊，现在求你立这禁令，加盖玉玺，使禁令决不更改；照 米底亚 和 波斯 人的例是不可更改的。」
9So king Darius set forth the decree, and established it.
9于是 大流士 王立这禁令，加盖玉玺。
10Now when Daniel knew this, that is to say, that the law was made, he went into his house: and opening the windows in his upper chamber towards Jerusalem, he knelt down three times a day, and adored, and gave thanks before his God, as he had been accustomed to do before.
10但以理 知道这 禁令 盖了玉玺，就到自己家里（他楼上的窗户开向 耶路撒冷 ），一日三次，双膝跪在他 神面前，祷告感谢，与素常一样。
11Wherefore those men carefully watching him, found Daniel praying and making supplication to his God.
11那些人就纷纷聚集，见 但以理 在他 神面前祈祷恳求。
12And they came and spoke to the king concerning the edict: O king, hast thou not decreed, that every man that should make a request to any of the gods, or men, for thirty days, but to thyself, O king, should be cast into the den of the lions? And the king answered them, saying: The word is true according to the decree of the Medes and Persians, which it is not lawful to violate.
12他们便进到王前，提王的禁令，说：「王啊，三十日内不拘何人，若在王以外，或向神或向人求什么，必被扔在狮子坑中。王不是在这禁令上盖了玉玺吗？」王回答说：「实有这事，照 米底亚 和 波斯 人的例是不可更改的。」
13Then they answered, and said before the king: Daniel, who is of the children of the captivity of Juda, hath not regarded thy law, nor the decree that thou hast made: but three times a day he maketh his prayer.
13他们对王说：「王啊，那被掳之 犹大 人中的 但以理 不理你，也不遵你盖了玉玺的禁令，他竟一日三次祈祷。」
14Now when the king had heard these words, he was very much grieved, and in behalf of Daniel he set his heart to deliver him and even till sunset he laboured to save him.
14王听见这话，就甚愁烦，一心要救 但以理 ，筹划解救他，直到日落的时候。
15But those men perceiving the king’s design, said to him: Know thou, O king, that the law of the Medes and Persians is, that no decree which the king hath made, may be altered.
15那些人就纷纷聚集来见王，说：「王啊，当知道 米底亚 人和 波斯 人有例，凡王所立的禁令和律例都不可更改。」
16Then the king commanded, and they brought Daniel, and cast him into the den of the lions. And the king said to Daniel: Thy God, whom thou always servest, he will deliver thee.
16王下令，人就把 但以理 带来，扔在狮子坑中。王对 但以理 说：「你所常事奉的 神，他必救你。」
17And a stone was brought, and laid upon the mouth of the den: which the king sealed with his own ring, and with the ring of his nobles, that nothing should be done against Daniel.
17有人搬石头放在坑口，王用自己的玺和大臣的印，封闭那坑，使惩办 但以理 的事毫无更改。
18And the king went away to his house and laid himself down without taking supper, and meat was not set before him, and even sleep departed from him.
18王回宫，终夜禁食，无人拿乐器到他面前，并且睡不着觉。
19Then the king rising very early in the morning, went in haste to the lions’ den:
19次日黎明，王就起来，急忙往狮子坑那里去。
20And coming near to the den, cried with a lamentable voice to Daniel, and said to him: Daniel, servant of the living God, hath thy God, whom thou servest always, been able, thinkest thou, to deliver thee from the lions?
20临近坑边，哀声呼叫 但以理 ，对 但以理 说：「永生 神的仆人 但以理 啊，你所常事奉的 神能救你脱离狮子吗？」
21And Daniel answering the king, said: O king, live for ever:
21但以理 对王说：「愿王万岁！
22My God hath sent his angel, and hath shut up the mouths of the lions, and they have not hurt me: forasmuch as before him justice hath been found in me: yea and before thee, O king, I have done no offence.
22我的 神差遣使者，封住狮子的口，叫狮子不伤我；因我在 神面前无辜，我在王面前也没有行过亏损的事。」
23Then was the king exceeding glad for him, and he commanded that Daniel should be taken out of the den: and Daniel was taken out of the den, and no hurt was found in him, because he believed in his God.
23王就甚喜乐，吩咐人将 但以理 从坑里系上来。于是 但以理 从坑里被系上来，身上毫无伤损，因为信靠他的 神。
24And by the king’s commandment, those men were brought that bad accused Daniel: and they were cast into the lions’ den, they and their children, and their wives: and they did not reach the bottom of the den, before the lions caught them, and broke all their bones in pieces.
24王下令，人就把那些控告 但以理 的人，连他们的妻子儿女都带来，扔在狮子坑中。他们还没有到坑底，狮子就抓住他们，咬碎他们的骨头。
25Then king Darius wrote to all people, tribes, and languages, dwelling in the whole earth: PEACE be multiplied unto you.
25那时， 大流士 王传旨，晓谕住在全地各方、各国、各族的人说：「愿你们大享平安！
26It is decreed by me, that in all my empire and my kingdom all men dread and fear the God of Daniel. For he is the living and eternal God for ever: and his kingdom shall not be destroyed, and his power shall be for ever.
26现在我降旨晓谕我所统辖的全国人民，要在 但以理 的 神面前，战兢恐惧。 因为他是永远长存的活 神， 他的国永不败坏； 他的权柄永存无极！
27He is the deliverer, and saviour, doing signs and wonders in heaven, and in earth: who hath delivered Daniel out of the lions’ den.
27他护庇人，搭救人， 在天上地下施行神迹奇事， 救了 但以理 脱离狮子的口。」
28Now Daniel continued unto the reign of Darius, and the reign of Cyrus the Persian.
28如此，这 但以理 ，当 大流士 王 在位的时候和 波斯 王 塞鲁士 在位的时候，大享亨通。
