Daniel 5:29

At Belshazzar's command, Daniel was clothed in purple [given royal status], a gold chain was hung around his neck, and he was proclaimed to have the third highest position in the kingdom.
[Daniel knew that these were worthless gifts and titles in a kingdom that would fall in a few hours! It seems that Daniel nevertheless accepts the rewards that are foisted on him against his will, see verse 17. Perhaps protests in this situation would have led to him being accused of treason?]
