Then these men assembled unto the king, and said unto the king, Know, O king, that the law of the Medes and Persians is, That no decree nor statute which the king establisheth may be changed.

Verse 15 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.

Da der König solches hörte, ward er sehr betrübt und tat großen Fleiß, daß er Daniel erlöste, und mühte sich bis die Sonne unterging, daß er ihn errettete.
Empero aquellos hombres se reunieron cerca del rey, y dijeron al rey: Sepas, oh rey, que es ley de Media y de Persia, que ningún decreto u ordenanza que el rey confirmare pueda mudarse.
Mais ces hommes insistèrent auprès du roi, et lui dirent: Sache, ô roi, que la loi des Mèdes et des Perses exige que toute défense ou tout décret confirmé par le roi soit irrévocable.
In quel punto quegli uomini si radunarono appresso del re, e gli dissero: Sappi, o re, che i Medi, e i Persiani hanno una legge, che alcun divieto, o statuto, che il re abbia fermato, non si possa mutare.
Então aqueles homens foram juntos ao rei, e disseram-lhe: Sabe, ó rei, que é lei dos medos e dos persas que nenhum edito ou decreto, que o rei estabeleça, se pode mudar.
那些人就紛紛聚集到王那裏,對王說:「王啊,當知道 瑪代 人和 波斯 人有例,凡王所立的禁令和律例都不可更改。」
