# den of lions

This may refer to a room or pit where lions were kept. See how you translated this in [Daniel 6:7](./06.md).

# Before they reached the floor

"Before they reached the floor of the lions' den"

# broke all their bones to pieces

"crushed their bones"

# peoples, nations, and languages

Here "nations" and "languages" represent people from different nations who speak different languages. See how you translated this in [Daniel 3:4](../03/03.md). AT: "people from different nations and who spoke different languages" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy]])

# in all the earth

King Darius wrote his message to his entire kingdom which was huge. Here it says "all the earth" as a generalization to emphasis how large his kingdom was, though it did not include everyone on the earth. AT: "in his kingdom" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-hyperbole]])

# May peace increase for you

This is a form of greeting that is used to wish someone well in all areas of life.
