The Plot against Daniel
4Thus the administrators and satraps sought a charge against Daniel concerning the kingdom, but they could find no charge or corruption, because he was trustworthy, and no negligence or corruption was found in him.5Finally these men said, “We will never find any charge against this Daniel, unless we find something against him concerning the law of his God.”
