\v 8 ¶ But \w Daniel|strong="H1840"\w* \w purposed|strong="H7760"\w* in his \w heart|strong="H3820"\w* that he would not \w defile|strong="H1351"\w* himself with the \w portion|strong="H6598"\w* of the \w king’s|strong="H4428"\w* \w meat|strong="H6598"\w*, nor with the \w wine|strong="H3196"\w* which he \w drank|strong="H4960"\w*: therefore he \w requested|strong="H1245"\w* of the \w prince|strong="H8269"\w* of the \w eunuchs|strong="H5631"\w* that he might not \w defile|strong="H1351"\w* himself.  
\v 9 Now \w God|strong="H0430"\w* had \w brought|strong="H5414"\w* \w Daniel|strong="H1840"\w* into \w favour|strong="H2617"\w* and tender \w love|strong="H7356"\w* \w with|strong="H6440"\w* the \w prince|strong="H8269"\w* of the \w eunuchs|strong="H5631"\w*.  
\v 10 And the \w prince|strong="H8269"\w* of the \w eunuchs|strong="H5631"\w* \w said|strong="H0559"\w* unto \w Daniel|strong="H1840"\w*, I \w fear|strong="H3373"\w* my \w lord|strong="H0113"\w* the \w king|strong="H4428"\w*, who hath \w appointed|strong="H4487"\w* your \w meat|strong="H3978"\w* and your \w drink|strong="H4960"\w*: for why should he \w see|strong="H7200"\w* your \w faces|strong="H6440"\w* worse \w liking|strong="H2196"\w* than the \w children|strong="H3206"\w* which \add are\add* of your \w sort|strong="H1524"\w*? then shall ye make \add me\add* \w endanger|strong="H2325"\w* my \w head|strong="H7218"\w* to the \w king|strong="H4428"\w*.\f + \fr 1.10 \ft worse…: Heb. sadder\f*\f + \fr 1.10 \ft sort: or, term, or, continuance?\f*  
\v 11 Then \w said|strong="H0559"\w* \w Daniel|strong="H1840"\w* to \w Melzar|strong="H4453"\w*, whom the \w prince|strong="H8269"\w* of the \w eunuchs|strong="H5631"\w* had \w set|strong="H4487"\w* over \w Daniel|strong="H1840"\w*, \w Hananiah|strong="H2608"\w*, \w Mishael|strong="H4332"\w*, and \w Azariah|strong="H5838"\w*,\f + \fr 1.11 \ft Melzar: or, the steward\f*

\v 13 Then let our \w countenances|strong="H4758"\w* be looked \w upon|strong="H7200"\w* \w before|strong="H6440"\w* thee, and the \w countenance|strong="H4758"\w* of the \w children|strong="H3206"\w* that \w eat|strong="H0398"\w* of the \w portion|strong="H6598"\w* of the \w king’s|strong="H4428"\w* \w meat|strong="H6598"\w*: and as thou \w seest|strong="H7200"\w*, \w deal|strong="H6213"\w* with thy \w servants|strong="H5650"\w*.  
\v 14 So he \w consented|strong="H8085"\w* to them in this \w matter|strong="H1697"\w*, and \w proved|strong="H5254"\w* them \w ten|strong="H6235"\w* \w days|strong="H3117"\w*.  
\v 15 And at the \w end|strong="H7117"\w* of \w ten|strong="H6235"\w* \w days|strong="H3117"\w* their \w countenances|strong="H4758"\w* \w appeared|strong="H7200"\w* \w fairer|strong="H2896"\w* and \w fatter|strong="H1277"\w* in \w flesh|strong="H1320"\w* than all the \w children|strong="H3206"\w* which did \w eat|strong="H0398"\w* the \w portion|strong="H6598"\w* of the \w king’s|strong="H4428"\w* \w meat|strong="H6598"\w*.  
\v 16 Thus \w Melzar|strong="H4453"\w* took \w away|strong="H5375"\w* the portion of their \w meat|strong="H6598"\w*, and the \w wine|strong="H3196"\w* that they should \w drink|strong="H4960"\w*; and \w gave|strong="H5414"\w* them \w pulse|strong="H2235"\w*.   
\p
\v 17 ¶ As for these \w four|strong="H0702"\w* \w children|strong="H3206"\w*, \w God|strong="H0430"\w* \w gave|strong="H5414"\w* them \w knowledge|strong="H4093"\w* and \w skill|strong="H7919"\w* in all \w learning|strong="H5612"\w* and \w wisdom|strong="H2451"\w*: and \w Daniel|strong="H1840"\w* had \w understanding|strong="H0995"\w* in all \w visions|strong="H2377"\w* and \w dreams|strong="H2472"\w*.\f + \fr 1.17 \ft Daniel…: or, he made Daniel understand\f*

\v 19 And the \w king|strong="H4428"\w* \w communed|strong="H1696"\w* with them; and among them all was \w found|strong="H4672"\w* none like \w Daniel|strong="H1840"\w*, \w Hananiah|strong="H2608"\w*, \w Mishael|strong="H4332"\w*, and \w Azariah|strong="H5838"\w*: therefore \w stood|strong="H5975"\w* they \w before|strong="H6440"\w* the \w king|strong="H4428"\w*.  
\v 20 And in all \w matters|strong="H1697"\w* of \w wisdom|strong="H2451"\w* \add and\add* \w understanding|strong="H0998"\w*, that the \w king|strong="H4428"\w* \w enquired|strong="H1245"\w* of them, he \w found|strong="H4672"\w* them ten \w times|strong="H6235"\w* \w better|strong="H3027"\w* than all the \w magicians|strong="H2748"\w* \add and\add* \w astrologers|strong="H0825"\w* that \add were\add* in all his \w realm|strong="H4438"\w*.\f + \fr 1.20 \ft wisdom…: Heb. wisdom of understanding\f*

\v 2 Then the \w king|strong="H4428"\w* \w commanded|strong="H0559"\w* to \w call|strong="H7121"\w* the \w magicians|strong="H2748"\w*, and the \w astrologers|strong="H0825"\w*, and the \w sorcerers|strong="H3784"\w*, and the \w Chaldeans|strong="H3778"\w*, for to \w shew|strong="H5046"\w* the \w king|strong="H4428"\w* his \w dreams|strong="H2472"\w*.
