10 Men så snart Daniel hade fått veta att skrivelsen var uppsatt, gick han in i sitt hus, varest han i sin övre sal hade fönster som voro öppna i riktning mot Jerusalem. Där föll han tre gånger om dagen ned på sina knän och bad och tackade sin Gud, såsom han förut hade plägat göra.

10 And when Daniel knew that the writing was signed, he went into his house; and, his windows being open in his upper chamber toward Jerusalem, he kneeled on his knees three times a day, and prayed and gave thanks before his God, as he did aforetime.
