1:1In the third year of the rule of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, came to Jerusalem, shutting it in with his forces.
1:2And the Lord gave into his hands Jehoiakim, king of Judah, with some of the vessels of the house of God; and he took them away into the land of Shinar to the house of his god; and he put the vessels into the store-house of his god.
1:3
1:4
1:5
1:6And among these there were, of the children of Judah, Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah.
1:7And the captain of the unsexed servants gave them names; to Daniel he gave the name of Belteshazzar, to Hananiah the name of Shadrach, to Mishael the name of Meshach, and to Azariah the name of Abed-nego.

1:8
1:9And God put into the heart of the captain of the unsexed servants kind feelings and pity for Daniel.
1:10And the captain of the unsexed servants said to Daniel, I am in fear of my lord the king, who has given orders about your food and your drink; what if he sees you looking less happy than the other young men of your generation? then you would have put my head in danger from the king.
1:11Then Daniel said to the keeper in whose care the captain of the unsexed servants had put Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah:
1:12Put your servants to the test for ten days; let them give us grain for our food and water for our drink.
1:13
1:14So he gave ear to them in this thing and put them to the test for ten days.
1:15
1:16So the keeper regularly took away their meat and the wine which was to have been their drink, and gave them grain.

1:17Now as for these four young men, God gave them knowledge and made them expert in all book-learning and wisdom: and Daniel was wise in all visions and dreams.
1:18Now at the end of the time fixed by the king for them to go in, the captain of the unsexed servants took them in to Nebuchadnezzar.
1:19And the king had talk with them; and among them all there was no one like Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah; so they were given places before the king.
1:20And in any business needing wisdom and good sense, about which the king put questions to them, he saw that they were ten times better than all the wonder-workers and users of secret arts in all his kingdom.
1:21And Daniel went on till the first year of King Cyrus.
