OET-RV DAN 6:1

6 The new King Dareyavesh (Darius) decided to divide the kingdom into 120 provinces with a governor over each one.

OET-RV DAN 6:2

2 Over them were three higher officials (Daniyel was one of them) that those governors were accountable to so that the king wouldn’t be ripped off,

OET-RV DAN 6:3

3 but because Daniyel was exceptionally talented, he became noticed above the other high officials and governors, and the king decided to appoint him over the whole kingdom.

OET-RV DAN 6:4

4 That led the high officials and the governors to try to find some fault with Daniyel with regard to his administrative duties. However, they weren’t able to find any misdemeanours or corruption that he could be accused of because he was honest, reliable, and diligent.

OET-RV DAN 6:5

5 Then these men concluded, “We won’t find any grounds for making an accusation against this Daniyel unless we find something against him to do with the laws of his god.”
