Daniel’s Service to Darius
6 [a]It pleased Darius to appoint 120 regional authorities[b] over the kingdom throughout the realm, 2 along with three chief administrators from them, one of which was Daniel. The regional authorities[c] reported to these three administrators,[d] so that the king would experience no losses. 3 Daniel distinguished himself among all the administrators and regional authorities,[e] because he was of an extraordinary spirit. Therefore the king planned to appoint him over the whole kingdom.
