1 Свиде се Дарију те постави над царством сто и педесет управитеља да буду над свим царством;
1 It pleased Darius to set over the kingdom one hundred twenty local governors, who should be throughout the whole kingdom;
2 а над њима три старешине, од којих један беше Данило, којима ће управитељи давати рачуне да не би цару било штете.
2 and over them three presidents, of whom Daniel was one, that these local governors might give account to them, and that the king should suffer no loss.
3 А тај Данило надвишиваше старешине и управитеље, јер у њему беше велик дух и цар мишљаше да га постави над свим царством својим.
3 Then this Daniel was distinguished above the presidents and the local governors, because an excellent spirit was in him; and the king thought to set him over the whole realm.
4 Тада старешине и управитељи гледаху како би нашли шта да замере Данилу ради царства; али не могаху наћи забаве ни погрешке, јер беше веран, и не налажаше се у њега погрешке ни мане.
4 Then the presidents and the local governors sought to find occasion against Daniel as touching the kingdom; but they could find no occasion or fault, because he was faithful. There wasn’t any error or fault found in him.
5 Тада рекоше они људи: Нећемо наћи на тог Данила ништа, ако не нађемо шта на њ ради закона Бога његовог.
5 Then these men said, “We won’t find any occasion against this Daniel, unless we find it against him concerning the law of his God.”
6 Тада дођоше старешине и управитељи к цару, и рекоше му овако: Дарије царе, да си жив довека!
6 Then these presidents and local governors assembled together to the king, and said this to him, “King Darius, live forever!
7 Све старешине у царству, поглавари и управитељи, већници и војводе договорише се да се постави царска наредба и оштра забрана да ко би се год замолио за шта коме год богу или човеку за тридесет дана осим теби, царе, да се баци у јаму лавовску.
7 All the presidents of the kingdom, the deputies and the local governors, the counselors and the governors, have consulted together to establish a royal statute and to make a strong decree, that whoever asks a petition of any god or man for thirty days, except of you, O king, he shall be cast into the den of lions.
8 Зато, царе, постави ту забрану и напиши да се не може променити, по закону мидском и персијском, који је непроменљив.
8 Now, O king, establish the decree and sign the writing, that it not be changed, according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which doesn’t alter.”
9 И цар Дарије написа књигу и забрану.
9 Therefore King Darius signed the writing and the decree.
10 А Данило кад дозна да је књига написана, отиде својој кући, где беху отворени прозори у његовој соби према Јерусалиму, и падаше на колена своја три пута на дан и мољаше се и хвалу даваше Богу свом као шта чињаше пре.
10 When Daniel knew that the writing was signed, he went into his house (now his windows were open in his room toward Jerusalem) and he kneeled on his knees three times a day, and prayed, and gave thanks before his God, as he did before.
11 Тада се сабраше они људи, и нађоше Данила где се моли и припада Богу свом.
11 Then these men assembled together, and found Daniel making petition and supplication before his God.
12 И отидоше те рекоше цару за царску забрану: Ниси ли написао заповест, да ко би се год замолио коме год богу или човеку за тридесет дана, осим теби, царе, да се баци у јаму лавовску? Цар одговори и рече: Тако је по закону мидском и персијском, који је непроменљив.
12 Then they came near, and spoke before the king concerning the king’s decree: “Haven’t you signed a decree that every man who makes a petition to any god or man within thirty days, except to you, O king, shall be cast into the den of lions?” The king answered, “This thing is true, according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which doesn’t alter.”
13 Тада одговорише и рекоше цару: Данило, који је између робља Јудина, не хаје за те, царе, ни за забрану коју си написао, него се моли три пута на дан својом молитвом.
13 Then they answered and said before the king, “That Daniel, who is of the children of the captivity of Judah, doesn’t respect you, O king, nor the decree that you have signed, but makes his petition three times a day.”
14 Тада цар чувши то ожалости се врло, и науми да избави Данила, и труђаше се до захода сунчаног да га избави.
14 Then the king, when he heard these words, was very displeased, and set his heart on Daniel to deliver him; and he labored until the going down of the sun to rescue him.
15 Тада они људи сабраше се код цара и рекоше цару: Знај, царе, да је закон у Мидијана и Персијана да се никаква забрана и наредба коју постави цар, не мења.
15 Then these men assembled together to the king, and said to the king, “Know, O king, that it is a law of the Medes and Persians, that no decree nor statute which the king establishes may be changed.”
16 Тада цар рече те доведоше Данила и бацише га у јаму лавовску; и цар проговори и рече Данилу: Бог твој, коме без престанка служиш, нека те избави.
16 Then the king commanded, and they brought Daniel and cast him into the den of lions. The king spoke and said to Daniel, “Your God whom you serve continually, he will deliver you.”
17 И донесоше камен и метнуше јами на врата, и цар га запечати својим прстеном и прстеном својих кнезова да се ништа не промени за Данила.
17 A stone was brought, and laid on the mouth of the den; and the king sealed it with his own signet, and with the signet of his lords; that nothing might be changed concerning Daniel.
18 Тада отиде цар у свој двор, и преноћи не једавши нити допустивши да му се донесе шта чим би се развеселио, и не може заспати.
18 Then the king went to his palace, and passed the night fasting. No musical instruments were brought before him; and his sleep fled from him.
19 Потом цар уста ујутро рано и отиде брже к јами лавовској.
19 Then the king arose very early in the morning, and went in haste to the den of lions.
20 И кад дође к јами, викну Данила жалосним гласом; и проговори цар и рече Данилу: Данило, слуго Бога Живога, Бог твој, коме служиш без престанка, може ли те избавити од лавова?
20 When he came near to Daniel in the den, he cried with a troubled 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 Тада Данило рече цару: Царе, да си жив довека!
21 Then Daniel said to the king, “O king, live forever!
22 Бог мој посла анђела свог и затвори уста лавовима, те ми не наудише; јер се нађох чист пред Њим, а ни теби царе, не учиних зла.
22 My God has sent his angel, and has shut the lions’ mouths, and they have not hurt me, because innocence was found in me before him; and also before you, O king, I have done no harm.”
23 Тада се цар веома обрадова том, и заповеди да изваде Данила из јаме. И извадише Данила из јаме, и не нађе се ране на њему, јер верова Богу свом.
23 Then the king was exceedingly 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.
24 Потом заповеди цар, те доведоше људе који беху оптужили Данила, и бацише у јаму лавовску њих, децу њихову и жене њихове; и још не дођоше на дно јами, а лавови их зграбише и све им кости потрше.
24 The king commanded, and they brought those men who had accused Daniel, and they cast them into the den of lions—them, their children, and their wives; and the lions mauled them, and broke all their bones in pieces before they came to the bottom of the den.
25 Тада цар Дарије писа свим народима и племенима и језицима што живљаху у свој земљи: Мир да вам се умножи.
25 Then King Darius wrote to all the peoples, nations, and languages who dwell in all the earth: “Peace be multiplied to you.
26 Од мене је заповест да се у свој држави царства мог свак боји и страши Бога Даниловог, јер је Он Бог живи, који остаје довека, и царство се Његово неће расути, и власт ће Његова бити до краја;
26 “I make a decree that in all the dominion of my kingdom men tremble and fear before the God of Daniel. “For he is the living God, and steadfast forever. His kingdom is that which will not be destroyed. His dominion will be even to the end.
27 Он избавља и спасава, и чини знаке и чудеса на небу и на земљи, Он је избавио Данила од силе лавовске.
27 He delivers and rescues. He works signs and wonders in heaven and in earth, who has delivered Daniel from the power of the lions.”
28 И тај Данило беше срећан за царовања Даријевог и за царовања Кира Персијанца.
28 So this Daniel prospered in the reign of Darius and in the reign of Cyrus the Persian.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
For what shall we say, brethren? Was Daniel cast into the den of lions by such as feared God?
Faith stoppeth the mouths of lions, as in Daniel's case: for the Scripture saith concerning him, that Daniel was brought up out of the den, and no manner of hurt was found upon him, because he believed in his God.
