# He urged them to seek mercy
"He begged them to pray for mercy"
# so that Daniel and his friends might not be destroyed
This can be stated in active form. Alternate translation: "so that the king would not destroy Daniel and his friends" or "so that the king's bodyguard would not destroy Daniel and his friends" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-activepassive]])
# destroyed
killed
# wise men
This phrase translates a word for a group of men whom people thought were wise. See how you translated it in [Daniel 2:12](../02/12.md).
