25. Then King Darius wrote to all the nations and peoples of every language in all the earth:‘May you prosper greatly!
26. ‘I issue a decree that in every part of my kingdom people must fear and reverence the God of Daniel.‘For he is the living Godand he endures for ever;his kingdom will not be destroyed,his dominion will never end.
27. He rescues and he saves;he performs signs and wondersin the heavens and on the earth.He has rescued Danielfrom the power of the lions.’
28. So Daniel prospered during the reign of Darius and the reign of Cyrus the Persian.
