And Daniel continued even unto the first year of king Cyrus.

And Darius the Median took the kingdom, being about threescore and two years old.

It pleased Darius to set over the kingdom an hundred and twenty princes, which should be over the whole kingdom;

So this Daniel prospered in the reign of Darius, and in the reign of Cyrus the Persian.

Also I in the first year of Darius the Mede, even I, stood to confirm and to strengthen him.
