Daniel 1:8-10
Holman Christian Standard Bible
Faithfulness in Babylon
8 Daniel determined that he would not defile himself with the king’s food(A) or with the wine he drank. So he asked permission from the chief official not to defile himself.(B) 9 God had granted Daniel favor and compassion from the chief official,(C) 10 yet he said to Daniel, “My lord the king assigned your food and drink. I’m afraid of what would happen if he saw your faces looking thinner than those of the other young men your age. You would endanger my life[a] with the king.”
