Daniel 1:5-8
5The king also allotted for them a daily ration from the 1king’s choice food and from the wine which he drank, and ordered that they be educated for three years, at the end of which they were to 23enter the king’s personal service. 6Now among them from the sons of Judah were 4Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah. 7Then the commander of the officials assigned new names to them; and to Daniel he assigned the name 5Belteshazzar, to Hananiah 6Shadrach, to Mishael 7Meshach, and to Azariah 8Abed-nego.
8But Daniel 9made up his mind that he would not 10defile himself with the 11king’s choice food or with the 12wine which he drank; so he sought permission from the commander of the officials that he might not defile himself.
