Toen begaven ze zich naar den koning, om over het koninklijk verbod te spreken, en ze zeiden tot hem: Hebt gij niet een verbod ondertekend, dat iedereen, die gedurende dertig dagen een bede durft richten tot god of mens, wie het ook is, behalve alleen tot u, koning, in de leeuwenkuil zal worden geworpen? De koning antwoordde: Dat staat vast, en is onherroepelijk als een wet van Meden en Perzen.

Alors ils s'approchèrent et parlèrent devant le roi au sujet du décret du roi : « N'as-tu pas signé un décret selon lequel tout homme qui, dans les trente jours, adressera une requête à un dieu ou à un homme, sauf à toi, ô roi, sera jeté dans la fosse aux lions ? ». Le roi répondit : « Cette chose est vraie, selon la loi des Mèdes et des Perses, qui ne change pas. »
