Exegesis
The imperative da’e {דָעֵ֑ה | dā-ʿē} ‘know/remember’ directly addresses the king, followed by the relative particle dī {דִּ֣י | dī} linking the petition.
In context — Daniel 6:15
Then these men approached the king and said to the king, “Know, O king, that by the law of the Medes and Persians no interdict or statute that the king establishes may not be changed.”
