If integrated into the book of Daniel: 3.85
In this context you servants of the Lord may be another way of referring to the priests of verse 62, but it probably has specific reference to the Levites of later Old Testament times—men of priestly descent who served as lesser temple functionaries (see Psa 134.1; 135.1-2). This could be expressed by an expression such as “you that serve the Lord in his temple” or “you that help the Lord’s priests.”
