1 I Kong Joakim af Judas tredje regeringsår drog kong Nebukadnezar af Babel til Jerusalem og belejrede det. 2 Og Herren gav Kong Jojakim af Juda og en Del af Guds Huses Kar i hans Hånd, og han førte dem til Sinears Land; men Karrene bragte han til sin Guds Skatkammer. 3 Kongen bød derpå sin Overhofmester Asjpenaz at tage nogle Israeliter, dels af kongelig Slægt, dels af adelig Byrd, 4 unge Mænd uden mindste Lyde og med et smukt Ydre, vel bevandrede i al Visdom, kundskabsrige og lærenemme, egnede til at gøre Tjeneste i Kongens Palads, og lære dem Kaldæernes Skrift og Tungemål 5 og opdrage dem i tre År, for at de så kunde træde i Kongens Tjeneste; og Kongen tildelte dem deres daglige kost af sin egen Mad og af den Vin, han selv drak. 6 Iblandt dem var Judæerne Daniel, Hananja, Misjael og Azarja; 7 og Overhofmesteren gav dem andre Navne, idet han kaldte Daniel Beltsazzar, Hananja Sjadrak, Misjael Mesjak og Azarja Abed Nego.
8 Men Daniel satte sig for, at han ikke vilde gøre sig uren med kongens Mad eller den Vin Kongen drak; derfor bad han Overhofmesteren om at blive fri for at gøre sig uren dermed. 9 Og Gud lod Daniel finde Yndest og Velvilje hos Overhofmesteren; 10 men Overhofmesteren sagde til ham: "Jeg frygter for, at min Herre Kongen, som har tildelt eder Mad og brikke, skal finde, at I ser ringere ud end de andre unge Mænd på eders Alder, og at I således skal bringe Skyld over mit Hoved hos Kongen." 11 Så sagde Daniel til den Opsynsmand, som Overhofmesteren havde sat over Daniel, Hananja, Misjael og Azarja: 12 "Prøv engang dine Trælle i ti,Dage og lad os få Grøntsager at spise og Vand at drikke! 13 Sammenlign så vort Udseende med de unge Mænds, som spiser Kongens Mad; så kan du gøre med dine Trælle, efter hvad du ser." 14 Han føjede dem da heri og prøvede det med dem i ti Dage. 15 Og da de ti Dage var omme, så de bedre ud og var ved bedre Huld end alle de unge Mænd, som spiste kongens Mad. 16 Så lod Opsynsmanden deres Mad og Vinen, de skulde drikke, bringe bort og gav dem Grøntsager i Stedet.
17 Disse fire unge Mænd gav Gud Kundskab og Indsigt i al Skrift og Visdom; Daniel forstod sig også på alle Hånde Syner og Drømme. 18 Og da den Tid, Kongen havde fastsat for deres Fremstilling, kom, førte Overhofmesteren dem frem for Nebukadnezar. 19 Da så Kongen talte med dem, fandtes der iblandt dem alle ingen, som kunde måle sig med Daniel, Hananja, Misjael og Azarja, og de trådte derfor i Kongens Tjeneste. 20 Og når som helst Kongen spurgte dem om noget, der krævede Visdom og Indsigt, fandt han dem ti Gange dygtigere end alle Drømmetydere og Manere i hele sit Rige. 21 Og Daniel blev.... til Kong Kyross første År.

Daniel’s Training in Babylon
1 In the third year of the reign of Jehoiakim(A) king of Judah, Nebuchadnezzar(B) king of Babylon(C) came to Jerusalem and besieged it.(D) 2 And the Lord delivered Jehoiakim king of Judah into his hand, along with some of the articles from the temple of God. These he carried(E) off to the temple of his god in Babylonia[a] and put in the treasure house of his god.(F)
3 Then the king ordered Ashpenaz, chief of his court officials, to bring into the king’s service some of the Israelites from the royal family and the nobility(G)— 4 young men without any physical defect, handsome,(H) showing aptitude for every kind of learning,(I) well informed, quick to understand, and qualified to serve in the king’s palace. He was to teach them the language(J) and literature of the Babylonians.[b] 5 The king assigned them a daily amount of food and wine(K) from the king’s table.(L) They were to be trained for three years,(M) and after that they were to enter the king’s service.(N)
6 Among those who were chosen were some from Judah: Daniel,(O) Hananiah, Mishael and Azariah.(P) 7 The chief official gave them new names: to Daniel, the name Belteshazzar;(Q) to Hananiah, Shadrach; to Mishael, Meshach; and to Azariah, Abednego.(R)
8 But Daniel resolved not to defile(S) himself with the royal food and wine, and he asked the chief official for permission not to defile himself this way. 9 Now God had caused the official to show favor(T) and compassion(U) to Daniel, 10 but the official told Daniel, “I am afraid of my lord the king, who has assigned your[c] food and drink.(V) Why should he see you looking worse than the other young men your age? The king would then have my head because of you.”
11 Daniel then said to the guard whom the chief official had appointed over Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael and Azariah, 12 “Please test(W) your servants for ten days: Give us nothing but vegetables to eat and water to drink. 13 Then compare our appearance with that of the young men who eat the royal food, and treat your servants in accordance with what you see.”(X) 14 So he agreed to this and tested(Y) them for ten days.
15 At the end of the ten days they looked healthier and better nourished than any of the young men who ate the royal food.(Z) 16 So the guard took away their choice food and the wine they were to drink and gave them vegetables instead.(AA)
17 To these four young men God gave knowledge and understanding(AB) of all kinds of literature and learning.(AC) And Daniel could understand visions and dreams of all kinds.(AD)
18 At the end of the time(AE) set by the king to bring them into his service, the chief official presented them to Nebuchadnezzar. 19 The king talked with them, and he found none equal to Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael and Azariah; so they entered the king’s service.(AF) 20 In every matter of wisdom and understanding about which the king questioned them, he found them ten times better than all the magicians(AG) and enchanters in his whole kingdom.(AH)
21 And Daniel remained there until the first year of King Cyrus.(AI)
