Now, O king, establish the decree, and sign the writing, that it be not changed, according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which altereth not.
Ahora pues, oh rey, confirma el decreto y fírmalo, para que no pueda ser revocado, conforme a la ley de Media y de Persia, la cual no puede ser abrogada.
Los consejeros pidieron al rey que firmara un decreto irrevocable según las leyes del imperio.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the book of Daniel, which is set during the Jewish exile under Persian rule, King Darius is manipulated by his officials to issue a decree that cannot be altered, as part of the ancient laws of the Medes and Persians. This decree specifically forbade anyone from praying to any god or human except the king for thirty days, reflecting the historical Persian custom of making royal edicts irrevocable to maintain stability in their empire. Such unchangeable laws were a known feature of Median and Persian governance, as documented in biblical and ancient historical accounts.
