seven counsellors:
Seven princes of Persia having conspired against and slain the usurper Smerdis, and thus made way for the family of Darius, which afterwards filled the throne, the Persian kings of this race had always seven chief princes as their counsellors, who possessed peculiar privileges, were his chief assistants in the government, and by whose advice all the public affairs of the empire were transacted. The names of these counsellors are given in the parallel place of the book of Esther. "And the nextª unto¹ him [was] Carshena,ª Shethar,ª Admatha,ª Tarshish,ª Meres,ª Marsena,ª [and] Memucan,ª the sevenª princesª of Persiaª and Media,ª which sawª° the king'sª face,ª [and] which satª° the firstª in the kingdom;)ª" {Est 1:14}

And whosoeverª¹ will¹ notª doª²°° the lawª of¹ thy God,ª and the lawª of¹ the king,ª let¹ judgmentª be²° executedª° speedilyª upon¹ him,² whetherª [it be] unto death,ª orª to banishment,ª orª to confiscationª of goods,ª or to imprisonment.ª" {Ezr 7:25-26} + "And it shall be,¹ when he sittethª° upon¹ the throneª of his kingdom,ª that he shall writeª° him¹ a copyª of this¹ lawª in¹ a bookª out of [that which is] beforeª¹ the priestsª the Levites:ª ... And it shall be¹ with¹ him, and he shall readª° therein all¹ the daysª of his life:ª that¹ he may learnª° to fearª°¹ the LORDª his God,ª to keepª°¹ all¹ the wordsª of this¹ lawª and these¹ statutes,ª to doª° them:" {Deu 17:18-19} + "To the lawª and to the testimony:ª if¹ they speakª° not¹ according to this¹ word,ª [it is] because¹ [there is] no¹ lightª in them." {Isa 8:20}
thy God:
"Who¹ [is there] among you of all¹¹ his people?ª his Godª be¹ with¹ him, and let him go upª° to Jerusalem,ª which¹ [is] in Judah,ª and buildª°¹ the houseª of the LORDª Godª of Israel,ª (he¹ [is] the God,)ª which¹ [is] in Jerusalem.ª" {Ezr 1:3} + "Be¹ it knownª²°° unto the king,ª that¹ we wentª° into the provinceª of Judea,ª to the houseª of the greatª God,ª which¹ is buildedª° with greatª stones,ª and timberª is laidª° in the walls,ª and thisª workª goethª° fast² on,¹ and prosperethª° in their hands.ª" {Ezr 5:8} + "And the Godª that¹ hath caused his nameª to dwellª° thereª destroyª° allª kingsª and people,ª that¹ shall putª° to their handª to alterª° [and] to destroyª° thisª houseª of Godª which¹ [is] at Jerusalem.ª Iª Dariusª have madeª° a decree;ª let it be doneª° with speed.ª" {Ezr 6:12} + "The kingª answeredª° unto Daniel,ª and said,ª° Ofª a truthª [it is], thatª your Godª [is] a Godª of gods,ª and a Lordª of kings,ª and a revealerª° of secrets,ª seeing¹ thou couldestª° revealª° thisª secret.ª" {Dan 2:47} + "And when he cameª° to the den,ª he criedª° with a lamentableª° voiceª unto Daniel:ª [and] the kingª spakeª° and saidª° to Daniel,ª O Daniel,ª servantª of the livingª God,ª is thy God,ª whom¹ thou¹ servestª° continually,ª ableª° to deliverª° thee fromª the lions?ª" {Dan 6:20} + "I²² makeª°¹¹ a decree,ª That¹ in everyª dominionª of my kingdomª men trembleªª° and fearª° beforeªª the Godª of¹ Daniel:ª for¹ he¹ [is] the livingª God,ª and stedfastª for ever,ª and his kingdomª [that] which¹ shall notª be destroyed,ª° and his dominionª [shall be even] untoª the end.ª" {Dan 6:26}
