Faithfulness in Babylon
8 Daniel determined that he would not defile himself with the king’s food(A) or with the wine he drank. So he asked permission from the chief eunuch not to defile himself.(B) 9 God had granted Daniel kindness and compassion from the chief eunuch,(C) 10 yet he said to Daniel, ‘I fear my lord the king, who assigned your food and drink. What if he sees your faces looking thinner than the other young men your age? You would endanger my life[a] with the king.’
