Daniel 6:12
Ndipo walipomwendea mfalme na kuongea naye kuhusiana na amri yake: “Je haukuweka amri kwamba mtu yeyote akayefanya maombi kwa mungu mwingine au kwa binadamu ndani ya siku thelathini zijazo, isipokuwa kwako wewe, mfalme, lazima mtu huyo atupwe katika tundu la simba? Mfalme akajibu, “Jambo hili ni la hakika, kama ilivyoelekezwa katika sheria za Wamedi na Waajemi; ambazo haziwezi zikabatilishwa.”

Then they came near, and spake before the king concerning the king's decree; Hast thou not signed a decree, that every man that shall ask a petition of any God or man within thirty days, save of thee, O king, shall be cast into the den of lions? The king answered and said, The thing is true, according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which altereth not.
So they approached the king and asked about his royal decree: “Did you not sign a decree that for thirty days any man who petitions any god or man except you, O king, will be thrown into the den of lions?” The king replied, “According to the law of the Medes and Persians the order stands, and it cannot be repealed.”

In context
9 Basi, mfalme Dario alitia saini nyaraka kwa kuifanya amri kuwa sheria.
10 Danieli alipojua kuwa nyaraka imekwisha kusainiwa kuwa sheria, alienda ndani ya nyumba yake (madirisha yake katika chumba cha juu yalikuwa wazi kuelekea Yerusalemu), na alipiga magoti yake, kama alivyokuwa akifanya mara tatu kwa siku, na aliomba na kushukuru mbele ya Mungu wake, kama alivyofanya hapo kabla.
11 Kisha watu hawa walikuwa wameunda hila kwa pamoja walimwona Danieli akiomba na kutafuta msaada kutoka kwa Mungu.
12 Ndipo walipomwendea mfalme na kuongea naye kuhusiana na amri yake: “Je haukuweka amri kwamba mtu yeyote akayefanya maombi kwa mungu mwingine au kwa binadamu ndani ya siku thelathini zijazo, isipokuwa kwako wewe, mfalme, lazima mtu huyo atupwe katika tundu la simba? Mfalme akajibu, “Jambo hili ni la hakika, kama ilivyoelekezwa katika sheria za Wamedi na Waajemi; ambazo haziwezi zikabatilishwa.”
13 Kisha wakamjibu mfalme, “ Mtu yule Daniel, ambaye ni mmoja wa watu wa mateka kutoka Yuda, hakutii wewe, mfalme wala maagizo yako uliyoyasaini. Yeye humwomba Mungu wake mara tatu kwa siku.”
14 Mfalme aliposikia haya, alisikitishwa sana, alitumia akili jinsi ya kumwokoa kutoka katika utawala huu. Alisumbuka sana mpaka wakati wa kuzama kwa jua akijaribu kumwokoa Danieli.
15 Kisha watu hawa waliokuwa wamepanga njama walikusanyika kwa pamoja na mfalme, na wakamwambia, “Ujue mfalme kwamba ni sheria ya Wamedi na Waajemi kwamba hakuna amri au sanamu ambayo mfalme anaipitisha yaweza kubadilishwa.”
