Daniel 1:8-16

But Daniel
<01840>

purposed
<07760> (8799)

in his heart
<03820>

that he would not defile
<01351> (8691)

himself with the portion
<06598> (0)

of the king's
<04428>

meat
<06598>_,

nor with the wine
<03196>

which he drank
<04960>_:

therefore he requested
<01245> (8762)

of the prince
<08269>

of the eunuchs
<05631>

that he might not defile
<01351> (8691)

himself.

Now God
<0430>

had brought
<05414> (8799)

Daniel
<01840>

into favour
<02617>

and tender love
<07356>

with
<06440>

the prince
<08269>

of the eunuchs
<05631>_.

And the prince
<08269>

of the eunuchs
<05631>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Daniel
<01840>_,

I fear
<03373>

my lord
<0113>

the king
<04428>_,

who hath appointed
<04487> (8765)

your meat
<03978>

and your drink
<04960>_:

for why should he see
<07200> (8799)

your faces
<06440>

worse liking
<02196> (8802)

than the children
<03206>

which [are] of your sort
<01524>_?

then shall ye make [me] endanger
<02325> (8765)

my head
<07218>

to the king
<04428>_.

{worse...: Heb. sadder} {sort: or, term, or, continuance?}

Then said
<0559> (8799)

Daniel
<01840>

to Melzar
<04453>_,

whom the prince
<08269>

of the eunuchs
<05631>

had set
<04487> (8765)

over Daniel
<01840>_,

Hananiah
<02608>_,

Mishael
<04332>_,

and Azariah
<05838>_,

{Melzar: or, the steward}

Prove
<05254> (8761)

thy servants
<05650>_,

I beseech thee, ten
<06235>

days
<03117>_;

and let them give
<05414> (8799)

us pulse
<02235>

to eat
<0398> (8799)_,

and water
<04325>

to drink
<08354> (8799)_.

{pulse: Heb. of pulse} {to eat...: Heb. that we may eat, etc}

Then let our countenances
<04758>

be looked upon
<07200> (8735)

before
<06440>

thee, and the countenance
<04758>

of the children
<03206>

that eat
<0398> (8802)

of the portion
<06598> (0)

of the king's
<04428>

meat
<06598>_:

and as thou seest
<07200> (8799)_,

deal
<06213> (8798)

with thy servants
<05650>_.

So he consented
<08085> (8799)

to them in this matter
<01697>_,

and proved
<05254> (8762)

them ten
<06235>

days
<03117>_.

And at the end
<07117>

of ten
<06235>

days
<03117>

their countenances
<04758>

appeared
<07200> (8738)

fairer
<02896>

and fatter
<01277>

in flesh
<01320>

than all the children
<03206>

which did eat
<0398> (8802)

the portion
<06598> (0)

of the king's
<04428>

meat
<06598>_.

Thus Melzar
<04453>

took away
<05375> (8802)

the portion of their meat
<06598>_,

and the wine
<03196>

that they should drink
<04960>_;

and gave
<05414> (8802)

them pulse
<02235>_.
