Then the king, when he heard these words, was sore displeased with himself, and set his heart on Daniel to deliver him: and he laboured till the going down of the sun to deliver him.

Verse 14 is found in chapter 6 of Daniel. The conspirators find Daniel praying and bring the case before Darius. The king discovers that his own legislation has trapped him and attempts to save Daniel, but the officials insist on the irrevocability of the decree. The scene shows political irony: the monarch who appeared all-powerful becomes a prisoner of his own word, while Daniel remains inwardly free to continue obeying God.

Sie antworteten und sprachen vor dem König: Daniel, der Gefangenen aus Juda einer, der achtet weder dich noch dein Gebot, das du verzeichnet hast; denn er betet des Tages dreimal.
El rey entonces, oyendo el negocio, pesole en gran manera, y sobre Daniel puso cuidado para librarlo; y hasta puestas del sol trabajó para librarle.
Le roi fut très affligé quand il entendit cela; il prit à coeur de délivrer Daniel, et jusqu'au coucher du soleil il s'efforça de le sauver.
Allora, come il re ebbe intesa la cosa, ne fu molto dolente, e pose cura di liberar Daniele; e fino al tramontar del sole, fece suo sforzo, per iscamparlo.
Ouvindo então o rei essas palavras, ficou muito penalizado, e a favor de Daniel propôs dentro do seu coração livrá-lo; e até ao pôr do sol trabalhou para salvá-lo.
王聽見這話,就甚愁煩,一心要救 但以理 ,直到日落的時候,他還在籌劃解救他。
