1 It pleased Darius to set over the kingdom a hundred and twenty princes, who should be over the whole kingdom;
2 And over these three presidents; of whom Daniel [was] first: that the princes might give accounts to them, and the king should have no damage.
3 Then this Daniel was preferred above the presidents and princes, because an excellent spirit [was] in him; and the king thought to set him over the whole realm.
