I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions,[ and] giving of thanks, be made for all men;For kings, and[ for] all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.

That they may offer sacrifices of sweet savours unto the God of heaven, and pray for the life of the king, and of his sons.

Whatsoever is commanded by the God of heaven, let it be diligently done for the house of the God of heaven: for why should there be wrath against the realm of the king and his sons?

Then Daniel, whose name[ was] Belteshazzar, was astonied for one hour, and his thoughts troubled him. The king spake, and said, Belteshazzar, let not the dream, or the interpretation thereof, trouble thee. Belteshazzar answered and said, My lord, the dream[ be] to them that hate thee, and the interpretation thereof to thine enemies.

Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord’s sake: whether it be to the king, as supreme;Or unto governors, as unto them that are sent by him for the punishment of evildoers, and for the praise of them that do well.For so is the will of God, that with well doing ye may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men:As free, and not using[ your] liberty for a cloke of maliciousness, but as the servants of God.Honour all[ men]. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honour the king.

Wherefore, O king, let my counsel be acceptable unto thee, and break off thy sins by righteousness, and thine iniquities by shewing mercy to the poor; if it may be a lengthening of thy tranquillity.

Wherefore[ ye] must needs be subject, not only for wrath, but also for conscience sake.

Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God.

Then the presidents and princes sought to find occasion against Daniel concerning the kingdom; but they could find none occasion nor fault; forasmuch as he[ was] faithful, neither was there any error or fault found in him.Then said these men, We shall not find any occasion against this Daniel, except we find[ it] against him concerning the law of his God.
