It pleased Darius to set over the kingdom one hundred twenty satraps, who should be throughout the whole kingdom;

and over them three presidents, of whom Daniel was one; that these satraps might give account to them, and that the king should have no damage.

Then this Daniel was distinguished above the presidents and the satraps, because an excellent spirit was in him; and the king thought to set him over the whole realm.

Then the presidents and the satraps sought to find occasion against Daniel as touching the kingdom; but they could find no occasion nor fault, because he was faithful, neither was there any error or fault found in him.

Then these presidents and satraps assembled together to the king, and said thus to him, King Darius, live forever.
