They tried to end my life by throwing me into a deep pit. They threw stones down at me.

they flung me alive into the pit and cast stones on me;

They threw me into a pit and dropped stones on me.

They smothered my life in a pit and threw stones on me.

They have silenced me in the pit And have thrown stones on me.

They silenced my life in the pit And threw stones at me.

They have cut off my life in the dungeon, and have cast a stone upon me.

They dropped me alive into a pit and threw stones at me.

They have cut off my life in the dungeon, and cast a stone upon me.

They shut me up in a pit and threw stones at me.

They have cut off my life in the dungeon, and have cast a stone on me.

A stone was brought and placed over the mouth of the den, and the king sealed it with his own signet ring and with the rings of his nobles, so that Daniel’s situation might not be changed.

“ My lord the king, these men have acted wickedly in all they have done to Jeremiah the prophet. They have thrown him into a cistern, where he will starve to death when there is no longer any bread in the city.”

So they took Jeremiah and put him into the cistern of Malkijah, the king’s son, which was in the courtyard of the guard. They lowered Jeremiah by ropes into the cistern; it had no water in it, only mud, and Jeremiah sank down into the mud.

Jeremiah was put into a vaulted cell in a dungeon, where he remained a long time.

and placed it in his own new tomb that he had cut out of the rock. He rolled a big stone in front of the entrance to the tomb and went away.

So they went and made the tomb secure by putting a seal on the stone and posting the guard.

But now, my lord the king, please listen. Let me bring my petition before you: Do not send me back to the house of Jonathan the secretary, or I will die there.”
