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
:
which he carried
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
certain
of the children
of Israel
,
and of the king's
seed
,
and of the princes
;
4
Children
in
whom
was
no blemish,
but well
favoured,
and skilful
in all wisdom
,
and cunning
in knowledge,
and understanding
science
, and such as
had
ability
in them to stand
in the king's
palace
,
and who
m they might teach
the learning
and the tongue
of the Chaldeans
.
5
And
the king
appointed
them a daily
provision
of
the king
's
meat
,
and of the wine
which he drank
:
so nourishing
them three
years
,
that at the end
thereof they might stand
before
the king
.
6
Now among these were of the children
of Judah
,
Daniel
,
Hananiah
,
Mishael
,
and Azariah
:
7
Unto whom the prince
of the eunuchs
gave
names
:
for he
gave
unto Daniel
the name
of Belteshazzar
;
and to Hananiah
,
of Shadrach
;
and to Mishael
,
of Meshach
;
and to Azariah
,
of Abednego
.
8
But Daniel
purposed
in his heart
that he would not defile
himself with the portion
of the king's
meat
,
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
had brought
Daniel
into favour
and tender love
with
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 meat
and your drink
:
for
why
should he see
your faces
worse liking
than the children
which
are
of your sort? then shall ye make
me
endanger
my head
to
the king
.
11
Then said
Daniel
to Melzar
,
whom
the prince
of the eunuchs
had set
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 children
that eat
of the portion
of the king's
meat
:
and as thou seest
,
deal
with thy servants
.
14
So he consented
to them in
this
matter
,
and proved
them ten
days
.
15
And at the end
of ten
days
their countenances
appeared
fairer
and fatter
in flesh
than
all
the children
which did eat
the portion
of the king's
meat
.
16
Thus Melzar
took away
the portion of their meat
,
and the wine
that they should drink
;
and gave
them pulse
.
17
As for
these
four
children
,
God
gave
them knowledge
and skill
in
all
learning
and wisdom
:
and Daniel
had understanding
in
all
visions
and dreams
.
18
Now at the end
of the days
that the king
had said
he should bring
them in, then 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
all
matters
of wisdom
and
understanding
,
that the king
inquired of them, he found
them ten times
better
than
all
the magicians
and
astrologers
that
were
in
all
his realm
.
21
And Daniel
continued
even
unto the first
year
of king
Cyrus
.
