Daniel 1:12-16

12TestH5254 thy servantsH5650, I beseech thee, tenH6235 daysH3117; and let them giveH5414 us vegetablesH2235 to eatH398, and waterH4325 to drinkH8354.12 13Then let our countenancesH4758 be looked uponH7200 beforeH6440 thee, and the countenanceH4758 of the childrenH3206 that eatH398 of the portionH6598 of the king’sH4428 foodH6598: and as thou seestH7200, dealH6213 with thy servantsH5650. 14So he consentedH8085 to them in this matterH1697, and triedH5254 them tenH6235 daysH3117. 15And at the endH7117 of tenH6235 daysH3117 their countenancesH4758 appearedH7200 fairerH2896 and fatterH1277 in fleshH1320 than all the childrenH3206 who ateH398 the portionH6598 of the king’sH4428 foodH6598. 16Thus MelzarH4453 took awayH5375 the portion of their foodH6598, and the wineH3196 that they should drinkH4960; and gaveH5414 them vegetablesH2235.
