01 : 06 Now among these <01992 +hem > were of the children

01 : 08 . But Daniel <01840 +Daniye>l > purposed <

therefore he
requested <01245 +baqash > of the prince <08269 +sar >
of the
eunuchs <05631 +cariyc > that he might not defile <01351

01 : 10 And the prince <08269 +sar > of the eunuchs <

+Daniye>l > ,
I fear <03373 +yare> > my lord <00113 +>adown >

for why <04100 +mah > should he see <07200 +ra>ah >
your faces
<06440 +paniym > worse <02196 +za<aph > liking
than <04480 +min

your sort <01524 +giyl > ? then shall ye make [ me ]
endanger
<02325 +chuwb > my head <07218 +ro>sh > to the
king <04428
+melek > .
01 : 11 Then said <00559 +>amar > Daniel <01840
+Daniye>l > to
Melzar <04453 +meltsar > , whom <00834 +>aher >
the prince
<08269 +sar > of the eunuchs <05631 +cariyc > had set

and Azariah
<05838 +<Azaryah > ,
01 : 12 Prove <05254 +nacah > thy servants <05650 +<
ebed > , I
beseech <04994 +na> > thee , ten <06235 +<eser >
days <03117
+yowm > ; and let them give <05414 +nathan > us pulse
<02235
+zeroa< > to eat <00398 +>akal > , and water <
04325 +mayim > to
drink <08354 +shathah > .
01 : 13 Then let our countenances <04758 +mar>eh > be
looked
<07200 +ra>ah > upon before <06440 +paniym > thee ,
and the
countenance <04758 +mar>eh > of the children <03206
+yeled >
that eat <00398 +>akal > of the portion <06598
+pathbag > of the
king s <04428 +melek > meat <06598 +pathbag > : and
as thou
seest <07200 +ra>ah > , deal <06213 +<asah >
with thy servants
<05650 +<ebed > .
01 : 14 So he consented <08085 +shama< > to them in this
<02088
+zeh > matter <01697 +dabar > , and proved <05254
+nacah > them
ten <06235 +<eser > days <03117 +yowm > .
01 : 15 And at the end <07117 +q@tsath > of ten <06235
+<eser >
days <03117 +yowm > their countenances <04758 +mar>eh

the children <03206 +yeled > which did eat <00398 +>
akal > the
portion <06598 +pathbag > of the king s <04428 +melek

<06598 +pathbag > .
01 : 16 Thus Melzar <04453 +meltsar > took <05375
+nasa> > away
the portion <06598 +pathbag > of their meat <06598
+pathbag > ,
and the wine <03196 +yayin > that they should drink <
04960
+mishteh > ; and gave <05414 +nathan > them pulse <
02235 +zeroa<

01 : 17 . As for these <00428 +>el - leh > four <
00702 +>arba<

wisdom <02451 +chokmah > : and Daniel <01840 +Daniye>
l > had
understanding <00995 +biyn > in all <03605 +kol >
visions <02377
+chazown > and dreams <02472 +chalowm > .
01 : 18 Now at the end <07117 +q@tsath > of the days <
03117
+yowm > that the king <04428 +melek > had said <00559

he should bring <00935 +bow> > them in , then the prince

+bow> >
them in before <06440 +paniym > Nebuchadnezzar <05019

01 : 19 And the king <04428 +melek > communed <01696

with them ; and among them all <03605 +kol > was found <
04672

Hananiah <02608 +Chananyah > , Mishael <04332 +Miysha>

Azariah <05838 +<Azaryah > : therefore stood <05975

they before <06440 +paniym > the king <04428 +melek >
.
01 : 20 And in all <03605 +kol > matters <01697 +dabar

wisdom <02451 +chokmah > [ and ] understanding <00998
+biynah > ,
that the king <04428 +melek > enquired <01245 +baqash

01 : 21 And Daniel <01840 +Daniye>l > continued <
01961 +hayah >
[ even ] unto the first <00259 +>echad > year <08141
+shaneh >
of king <04428 +melek > Cyrus <03566 +Kowresh > .
02 : 01 . And in the second <08147 +sh@nayim > year <
08141

troubled
<06470 +pa<am > , and his sleep <08142 +shehah >
brake <01961
+hayah > from him .
02 : 02 Then the king <04428 +melek > commanded <00559

to call <07121 +qara> > the magicians <02748 +chartom

the astrologers <00825 +>ashshaph > , and the sorcerers

shew
<05046 +nagad > the king <04428 +melek > his dreams

02 : 03 And the king <04428 +melek > said <00559 +>
amar > unto

know <03045 +yada< > the dream <02472 +chalowm > .
02 : 04 Then spake <01696 +dabar > the Chaldeans <03779
+Kasday

Aramiyth > , O
king <04430 +melek > , live <02418 +chaya> > for

02 : 05 The king <04430 +melek > answered <06032 +<
anah > and
said <00560 +>amar > to the Chaldeans <03779 +Kasday
