Daniel 1:8-10

8But DanielH1840 purposedH7760 in his heartH3820 that he would not defileH1351 himself with the portionH6598 of the king’sH4428 foodH6598, nor with the wineH3196 which he drankH4960: therefore he requestedH1245 of the princeH8269 of the eunuchsH5631 that he might not defileH1351 himself. 9Now GodH430 had broughtH5414 DanielH1840 into favourH2617 and compassionH7356 withH6440 the princeH8269 of the eunuchsH5631. 10And the princeH8269 of the eunuchsH5631 saidH559 to DanielH1840, I fearH3373 my lordH113 the kingH4428, who hath appointedH4487 your foodH3978 and your drinkH4960: for why should he seeH7200 your facesH6440 worse lookingH2196 than the childrenH3206 who are of your ageH1524? then shall ye make me endangerH2325 my headH7218 to the kingH4428.12
