Daniel 2:46–47, where Darius is speaking; 4:34–37, where Nebuchadnezzar is speaking; and 6:25–27, where Darius again is speaking (recall that these are all separate tales). There are also similarities to the proclamation of Nabonidus in 4QPrayer of Nabonidus and to the declaration of Ptolemy in 3 Maccabees 7.
