Daniel 1:10 (ASV) American Standard Version

1 In the third year of the reign of Jehoiakim king of Judah came Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon unto Jerusalem, and besieged it.
2 And the Lord gave Jehoiakim king of Judah into his hand, with part of the vessels of the house of God; and he carried them into the land of Shinar to the house of his god: and he brought the vessels into the treasure-house of his god.
3 And the king spake unto Ashpenaz the master of his eunuchs, that he should bring in certain of the children of Israel, even of the seed royal and of the nobles;
4 youths in whom was no blemish, but well-favored, and skilful in all wisdom, and endued with knowledge, and understanding science, and such as had ability to stand in the kings palace; and that he should teach them the learning and the tongue of the Chaldeans.
5 And the king appointed for them a daily portion of the kings dainties, and of the wine which he drank, and that they should be nourished three years; that at the end thereof they should stand before the king.
6 Now among these were, of the children of Judah, Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah.
7 And the prince of the eunuchs gave names unto them: unto Daniel he gave the name of Belteshazzar; and to Hananiah, of Shadrach; and to Mishael, of Meshach; and to Azariah, of Abed-nego.
8 But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the kings dainties, nor with the wine which he drank: therefore he requested of the prince of the eunuchs that he might not defile himself.
9 Now God made Daniel to find kindness and compassion in the sight of the prince of the eunuchs.
10 And the prince of the eunuchs said unto Daniel, I fear my lord the king, who hath appointed your food and your drink: for why should he see your faces worse looking than the youths that are of your own age? so would ye endanger my head with the king.
11 Then said Daniel to the steward whom the prince of the eunuchs had appointed over Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah:
12 Prove thy servants, I beseech thee, ten days; and let them give us pulse to eat, and water to drink.
13 Then let our countenances be looked upon before thee, and the countenance of the youths that eat of the kings dainties; and as thou seest, deal with thy servants.
14 So he hearkened unto them in this matter, and proved them ten days.
15 And at the end of ten days their countenances appeared fairer, and they were fatter in flesh, than all the youths that did eat of the kings dainties.
16 So the steward took away their dainties, and the wine that they should drink, and gave them pulse.
17 Now as for these four youths, God gave them knowledge and skill in all learning and wisdom: and Daniel had understanding in all visions and dreams.
18 And at the end of the days which the king had appointed for bringing them in, the prince of the eunuchs brought them in before Nebuchadnezzar.
19 And the king communed with them; and among them all was found none like Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah: therefore stood they before the king.
20 And in every matter of wisdom and understanding, concerning which the king inquired of them, he found them ten times better than all the magicians and enchanters that were in all his realm.
21 And Daniel continued even unto the first year of king Cyrus.
1 In the third H7969 year H8141 of the reign H4438 of Jehoiakim H3079 king H4428 of Judah H3063 came H935 Nebuchadnezzar H5019 king H4428 of Babylon H894 unto Jerusalem, H3389 and besieged H6696 H5921 it.
2 And the Lord H136 gave H5414 H853 Jehoiakim H3079 king H4428 of Judah H3063 into his hand, H3027 with part H4480 H7117 of the vessels H3627 of the house H1004 of God: H430 which he carried into H935 the land H776 of Shinar H8152 to the house H1004 of his god; H430 and he brought H935 the vessels H3627 into the treasure H214 house H1004 of his god. H430
3 And the king H4428 spoke H559 unto Ashpenaz H828 the master H7227 of his eunuchs, H5631 that he should bring H935 certain of the children H4480 H1121 of Israel, H3478 and of the king's seed H4480 H2233, H4410 and of H4480 the princes; H6579
4 Children H3206 in whom H834 was no H369 H3605 blemish, H3971 but well favored H2896 H4758 , and skillful H7919 in all H3605 wisdom, H2451 and cunning H3045 in knowledge, H1847 and understanding H995 science, H4093 and such H834 as had ability H3581 in them to stand H5975 in the king's H4428 palace, H1964 and whom they might teach H3925 the learning H5612 and the tongue H3956 of the Chaldeans. H3778
5 And the king H4428 appointed H4487 them a daily H3117 H3117 provision H1697 of the king's meat H4480 H6598, H4428 and of the wine H4480 H3196 which he drank: H4960 so nourishing H1431 them three H7969 years, H8141 that at the end H4480 H7117 thereof they might stand H5975 before H6440 the king. H4428
6 Now among these were H1961 of the children H4480 H1121 of Judah, H3063 Daniel, H1840 Hananiah, H2608 Mishael, H4332 and Azariah: H5838
7 Unto whom the prince H8269 of the eunuchs H5631 gave H7760 names: H8034 for he gave H7760 unto Daniel H1840 the name of Belteshazzar; H1095 and to Hananiah, H2608 of Shadrach; H7714 and to Mishael, H4332 of Meshach; H4335 and to Azariah, H5838 of Abed- H5664 nego.
8 But Daniel H1840 purposed H7760 in H5921 his heart H3820 that H834 he would not H3808 defile himself H1351 with the portion of the king's meat H6598 H4428 , nor with the wine H3196 which he drank: H4960 therefore he requested H1245 of the prince H4480 H8269 of the eunuchs H5631 that H834 he might not H3808 defile himself. H1351
9 Now God H430 had brought H5414 H853 Daniel H1840 into favor H2617 and tender love H7356 with H6440 the prince H8269 of the eunuchs. H5631
10 And the prince H8269 of the eunuchs H5631 said H559 unto Daniel, H1840 I H589 fear H3372 H853 my lord H113 the king, H4428 who H834 hath appointed H4487 H853 your meat H3978 and your drink: H4960 for H834 why H4100 should he see H7200 H853 your faces H6440 worse liking H2196 than H4480 the children H3206 which H834 are of your sort H1524 ? then shall ye make me endanger H2325 H853 my head H7218 to the king. H4428
11 Then said H559 Daniel H1840 to H413 Melzar, H4453 whom H834 the prince H8269 of the eunuchs H5631 had set H4487 over H5921 Daniel, H1840 Hananiah, H2608 Mishael, H4332 and Azariah, H5838
12 Prove H5254 H853 thy servants, H5650 I beseech thee, H4994 ten H6235 days; H3117 and let them give H5414 us pulse H2235 to eat, H398 and water H4325 to drink. H8354
13 Then let our countenances H4758 be looked upon H7200 before H6440 thee , and the countenance H4758 of the children H3206 that eat H398 H853 of the portion of the king's meat H6598 H4428 : and as H834 thou seest, H7200 deal H6213 with H5973 thy servants. H5650
14 So he consented H8085 to them in this H2088 matter, H1697 and proved H5254 them ten H6235 days. H3117
15 And at the end H4480 H7117 of ten H6235 days H3117 their countenances H4758 appeared H7200 fairer H2896 and fatter H1277 in flesh H1320 than H4480 all H3605 the children H3206 which did eat H398 H853 the portion of the king's meat H6598 H4428 .
16 Thus Melzar H4453 took away H5375 H853 the portion of their meat, H6598 and the wine H3196 that they should drink; H4960 and gave H5414 them pulse. H2235
17 As for these H428 four H702 children, H3206 God H430 gave H5414 them knowledge H4093 and skill H7919 in all H3605 learning H5612 and wisdom: H2451 and Daniel H1840 had understanding H995 in all H3605 visions H2377 and dreams. H2472
18 Now at the end H4480 H7117 of the days H3117 that H834 the king H4428 had said H559 he should bring them in, H935 then the prince H8269 of the eunuchs H5631 brought them in H935 before H6440 Nebuchadnezzar. H5019
19 And the king H4428 communed H1696 with H854 them ; and among them all H4480 H3605 was found H4672 none H3808 like Daniel, H1840 Hananiah, H2608 Mishael, H4332 and Azariah: H5838 therefore stood H5975 they before H6440 the king. H4428
20 And in all H3605 matters H1697 of wisdom H2451 and understanding, H998 that H834 the king H4428 inquired H1245 of H4480 them , he found H4672 them ten H6235 times H3027 better than H5921 all H3605 the magicians H2748 and astrologers H825 that H834 were in all H3605 his realm. H4438
21 And Daniel H1840 continued H1961 even unto H5704 the first H259 year H8141 of king H4428 Cyrus. H3566
