7 “Hemos acordado todos -ministros principales, prefectos, gobernadores provinciales, consejeros y gobernadores locales- que Su Majestad emita un decreto, de cumplimiento legal, para que durante los próximos treinta días cualquiera que rece a cualquier dios o ser humano excepto usted, Su Majestad, sea arrojado al foso de los leones.
All the chief rulers of the kingdom, the chiefs and the captains, the wise men and the rulers, have made a common decision to put in force a law having the king's authority, and to give a strong order, that whoever makes any request to any god or man but you, O King, for thirty days, is to be put into the lions' hole.
