NASB
"Then these men said, "We will not find any ground of accusation against this Daniel unless we find it against him with regard to the law of his God.""
— Daniel 6:5, NASB
“Then said these men, We shall not find any occasion against this Daniel, except we find it against him concerning the law of his God.”
“Then said these men, We shall not find any occasion against this Daniel, except we find it against him concerning the law of his God. ”
“Then these men said, We shall not find any occasion against this Daniel, except we find it against him concerning the law of his God.”
“So these men concluded,“We won’t find any pretext against this man Daniel unless it is in connection with the law of his God.””
“Then these men said: We shall not find any occasion against this Daniel, unless perhaps concerning the law of his God.”
“Then these men said, We will only get a reason for attacking Daniel in connection with the law of his God.”
“Then said these men, We shall not find any occasion against this Daniel, except we find it against him concerning the law of his God.”

Then this Daniel began distinguishing himself among the commissioners and satraps because he possessed an extraordinary spirit, and the king planned to appoint him over the entire kingdom.
Then the commissioners and satraps began trying to find a ground of accusation against Daniel in regard to government affairs; but they could find no ground of accusation or evidence of corruption, inasmuch as he was faithful, and no negligence or corruption was to be found in him.
Then these men said, "We will not find any ground of accusation against this Daniel unless we find it against him with regard to the law of his God."
Then these commissioners and satraps came by agreement to the king and spoke to him as follows: "King Darius, live forever!
"All the commissioners of the kingdom, the prefects and the satraps, the high officials and the governors have consulted together that the king should establish a statute and enforce an injunction that anyone who makes a petition to any god or man besides you, O king, for thirty days, shall be cast into the lions' den.
"Now, O king, establish the injunction and sign the document so that it may not be changed, according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which may not be revoked."
