Serving your enemy King is like a traitor’s action. Why didn’t Daniel & his friends refused to serve King Nebuchadnezzar? They could have chose to die in war with honour rather than to submit.

So my question is did Daniel & his friends submit to King Nebuchadnezzar because of Jeremiah prophecy in Jer 27? They were simply following God’s instruction.

"To Zedekiah king of Judah I spoke in like manner; Bring your necks
under the yoke of the king of Babylon, and serve him and his people
and live" Jeremiah ch27 v12, RSV
