Dan 01:01 ¶ In the third <07969> year <08141> of the reign
<04438> of Jehoiakim <03079> king <04428> of
Judah <03063> came
<0935> (8804) Nebuchadnezzar <05019> king <
04428> of Babylon
<0894> unto Jerusalem <03389>, and besieged <
06696> (8799) it.
Dan 01:02 And the Lord <0136> gave <05414> (8799)
Jehoiakim
<03079> king <04428> of Judah <03063> into his
hand <03027>,
with part <07117> of the vessels <03627> of the house
<01004> of
God <0430>: which he carried <0935> (8686) into the
land <0776>
of Shinar <08152> to the house <01004> of his god <
0430>; and he
brought <0935> (8689) the vessels <03627> into the
treasure
<0214> house <01004> of his god <0430>.
Dan 01:03 And the king <04428> spake <0559> (8799)
unto
Ashpenaz <0828> the master <07227> of his eunuchs <
05631>, that
he should bring <0935> (8687) certain of the children <
01121> of
Israel <03478>, and of the king’s <04410> seed <
02233>, and of
the princes <06579>;
Dan 01:04 Children <03206> in whom was no blemish <
03971>
(8675) <03971>, but well <02896> favoured <
04758>, and skilful
<07919> (8688) in all wisdom <02451>, and cunning <
03045> (8802)
in knowledge <01847>, and understanding <0995> (8688)
science
<04093>, and such as had ability <03581> in them to
stand
<05975> (8800) in the king’s <04428> palace <
01964>, and whom
they might teach <03925> (8763) the learning <05612>
and the
tongue <03956> of the Chaldeans <03778>.
Dan 01:05 And the king <04428> appointed <04487>
(8762) them a
daily <03117> <03117> provision <01697> of the
king’s <04428>
meat <06598>, and of the wine <03196> which he drank
<04960>: so
nourishing <01431> (8763) them three <07969> years
<08141>, that
at the end <07117> thereof they might stand <05975>
(8799)
before <06440> the king <04428>.
Dan 01:06 Now among these were of the children <01121> of
Judah
<03063>, Daniel <01840>, Hananiah <02608>,
Mishael <04332>, and
Azariah <05838>:
Dan 01:07 Unto whom the prince <08269> of the eunuchs <
05631>
gave <07760> (8799) names <08034>: for he gave <
07760> (8799)
unto Daniel <01840> the name of Belteshazzar <01095>;
and to
Hananiah <02608>, of Shadrach <07714>; and to Mishael
<04332>,
of Meshach <04335>; and to Azariah <05838>, of
Abednego <05664>.
Dan 01:08 ¶ But Daniel <01840> purposed <07760>
(8799) in his
heart <03820> that he would not defile <01351> (8691)
himself
with the portion <06598> <00> 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.
Dan 01:09 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>.
Dan 01:10 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>.
Dan 01:11 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>,
Dan 01:12 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).
Dan 01:13 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> <00> of the king’s <04428> meat <
06598>: and as thou
seest <07200> (8799), deal <06213> (8798) with thy
servants
<05650>.
Dan 01:14 So he consented <08085> (8799) to them in this
matter
<01697>, and proved <05254> (8762) them ten <
06235> days <03117>.
Dan 01:15 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>
<00> of the king’s <04428> meat <06598>.
Dan 01:16 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>.
Dan 01:17 ¶ As for these four <0702> children <03206>,
God
<0430> gave <05414> (8804) them knowledge <
04093> and skill
<07919> (8687) in all learning <05612> and wisdom <
02451>: and
Daniel <01840> had understanding <0995> (8689) in all
visions
<02377> and dreams <02472>.
Dan 01:18 Now at the end <07117> of the days <03117>
that the
king <04428> had said <0559> (8804) he should bring
<0935>
(8687) them in, then the prince <08269> of the eunuchs <
05631>
brought <0935> (8686) them in before <06440>
Nebuchadnezzar
<05019>.
Dan 01:19 And the king <04428> communed <01696>
(8762) with
them; and among them all was found <04672> (8738) none like
Daniel <01840>, Hananiah <02608>, Mishael <
04332>, and Azariah
<05838>: therefore stood <05975> (8799) they before
<06440> the
king <04428>.
Dan 01:20 And in all matters <01697> of wisdom <
02451> and
understanding <0998>, that the king <04428> enquired
<01245>
(8765) of them, he found <04672> (8799) them ten times <
06235>
better <03027> than all the magicians <02748> and
astrologers
<0825> that were in all his realm <04438>.
Dan 01:21 And Daniel <01840> continued even unto the first
<0259> year <08141> of king <04428> Cyrus <
03566>.
Dan 02:01 ¶ And in the second <08147> year <08141> of
the reign
<04438> of Nebuchadnezzar <05019> Nebuchadnezzar <
05019> dreamed
<02492> (8804) dreams <02472>, wherewith his spirit
<07307> was
troubled <06470> (8691), and his sleep <08142> brake
<01961>
(8738) from him.
Dan 02:02 Then the king <04428> commanded <0559>
(8799) to call
<07121> (8800) the magicians <02748>, and the
astrologers <0825>,
and the sorcerers <03784> (8764), and the Chaldeans <
03778>,
for to shew <05046> (8687) the king <04428> his
dreams <02472>.
So they came <0935> (8799) and stood <05975> (8799)
before
<06440> the king <04428>.
Dan 02:03 And the king <04428> said <0559> (8799)
unto them, I
have dreamed <02492> (8804) a dream <02472>, and my
spirit
<07307> was troubled <06470> (8735) to know <
03045> (8800) the
dream <02472>.
Dan 02:04 Then spake <01696> (8762) the Chaldeans <
03778> to
the king <04428> in Syriack <0762>, O king <
04430>, live <02418>
(8747) for ever <05957>: tell <0560> (8747) thy
servants <05649>
the dream <02493>, and we will shew <02324> (8741)
the
interpretation <06591>.
Dan 02:05 The king <04430> answered <06032> (8750)
and said
<0560> (8750) to the Chaldeans <03779>, The thing <
04406> is
gone <0230> (8754) from me <04481>: if <02006>
ye will not
<03809> make known <03046> (8681) unto me the dream
<02493>,
with the interpretation <06591> thereof, ye shall be cut
<05648>
(8725) in pieces <01917>, and your houses <01005>
shall be made
<07761> (8725) a dunghill <05122>.
Dan 02:06 But if <02006> ye shew <02324> (8681) the
dream
<02493>, and the interpretation <06591> thereof, ye
shall
receive <06902> (8741) of <04481> me <06925>
gifts <04978> and
rewards <05023> and great <07690> honour <03367>
: therefore
<03861> shew <02324> (8680) me the dream <02493>
, and the
interpretation <06591> thereof.
Dan 02:07 They answered <06032> (8754) again <08579>
and said
<0560> (8750), Let the king <04430> tell <0560>
(8748) his
servants <05649> the dream <02493>, and we will shew
<02324>
(8681) the interpretation <06591> of it.
Dan 02:08 The king <04430> answered <06032> (8750)
and said
<0560> (8750), I <0576> know <03046> (8751) of
<04481> certainty
<03330> that ye <0608> would gain <02084>
(8750) the time
<05732>, because <06903> <03606> ye see <
02370> (8754) the thing
<04406> is gone <0230> (8754) from <04481> me.
Dan 02:09 But if <02006> ye will not <03809> make
known <03046>
(8681) unto me the dream <02493>, there is but one <
01932>
<02298> decree <01882> for you: for ye have prepared
<02164>
(8724) lying <03538> and corrupt <07844> (8752) words
<04406> to
speak <0560> (8749) before <06925> me, till <
05705> the time
<05732> be changed <08133> (8721): therefore <
03861> tell <0560>
(8747) me the dream <02493>, and I shall know <03046>
(8748)
that <01768> ye can shew <02324> (8681) me the
interpretation
<06591> thereof.
Dan 02:10 The Chaldeans <03779> answered <06032>
(8754) before
<06925> the king <04430>, and said <0560>
(8750), There is
<0383> not <03809> a man <0606> upon <
05922> the earth <03007>
that can <03202> (8748) shew <02324> (8682) the
king’s <04430>
matter <04406>: therefore <06903> <01768> there
is no <03809>
king <04430>, lord <07229>, nor ruler <07990>,
that asked
<07593> (8754) such <01836> things <04406> at
any <03606>
magician <02749>, or astrologer <0826>, or Chaldean
<03779>.
Dan 02:11 And it is a rare <03358> thing <04406>
that the king
<04430> requireth <07593> (8751), and there is <
0383> none
<03809> other <0321> that can shew <02324>
(8741) it before
<06925> the king <04430>, except <03861> the
gods <0426>, whose
dwelling <04070> is <0383> not <03809> with <
05974> flesh
<01321>.
Dan 02:12 For <06903> this <01836> cause <
03606> the king
<04430> was angry <01149> (8754) and very <
07690> furious
<07108> (8754), and commanded <0560> (8754) to
destroy <07>
(8682) all <03606> the wise <02445> men of Babylon
<0895>.
Dan 02:13 And the decree <01882> went forth <05312>
(8754) that
the wise <02445> men should be slain <06992> (8726);
and they
sought <01156> (8754) Daniel <01841> and his fellows
<02269> to
be slain <06992> (8723).
Dan 02:14 ¶ Then <0116> Daniel <01841> answered <
08421> (8684)
with counsel <05843> and wisdom <02942> to Arioch <
0746> the
captain <07229> of <01768> the king’s <04430>
guard <02877>,
which was gone forth <05312> (8754) to slay <06992>
(8742) the
wise <02445> men of Babylon <0895>:
Dan 02:15 He answered <06032> (8750) and said <0560>
(8750) to
Arioch <0746> the king’s <04430> captain <07990>
, Why <04101>
<05922> is the decree <01882> so hasty <02685>
(8683) from
<04481> <06925> the king <04430>? Then <
0116> Arioch <0746> made
the thing <04406> known <03046> (8684) to Daniel <
01841>.
Dan 02:16 Then Daniel <01841> went in <05954> (8754),
and
desired <01156> (8754) of <04481> the king <
04430> that he would
give <05415> (8748) him time <02166>, and that he
would shew
<02324> (8682) the king <04430> the interpretation
<06591>.
Dan 02:17 Then <0116> Daniel <01841> went <
0236> (8754) to his
house <01005>, and made the thing <04406> known <
03046> (8684)
to Hananiah <02608>, Mishael <04333>, and Azariah <
05839>, his
companions <02269>:
Dan 02:18 That they would desire <01156> (8749) mercies
<07359>
of <04481> <06925> the God <0426> of heaven <
08065> concerning
<05922> this <01836> secret <07328>; that
Daniel <01841> and his
fellows <02269> should not <03809> perish <07>
(8681) with
<05974> the rest <07606> of the wise <02445>
men of Babylon
<0895>.
Dan 02:19 Then <0116> was the secret <07328>
revealed <01541>
(8752) unto Daniel <01841> in a night <03916> vision
<02376>.
Then <0116> Daniel <01841> blessed <01289>
(8745) the God <0426>
of heaven <08065>.
Dan 02:20 Daniel <01841> answered <06032> (8750) and
said
<0560> (8750), Blessed <01289> (8743) be <01934>
(8748) the name
<08036> of God <0426> for <04481> ever <
05957> and ever <05705>
<05957>: for wisdom <02452> and might <01370>
are <01932> his:
Dan 02:21 And he changeth <08133> (8683) the times <
05732> and
the seasons <02166>: he removeth <05709> (8683) kings
<04430>,
and setteth up <06966> (8683) kings <04430>: he
giveth <03052>
(8751) wisdom <02452> unto the wise <02445>, and
knowledge
