Seeker Overlay ON
*
Then said Daniel to Melzar ,
whom the prince of the eunuchs had set over Daniel ,
Hananiah ,
Mishael ,
and Azariah ,
*
Prove thy servants ,
I beseech thee ,
ten days ;
and let them give us pulse to eat ,
and water to drink .
*
Then let our countenances be looked upon before thee ,
and the countenance of the children that eat of the portion of the king '
s meat :
and as thou seest ,
deal with thy servants .
*
So he consented to them in this matter ,
and proved them ten days .
*
And at the end of ten days their countenances appeared fairer and fatter in flesh than all the children which did eat the portion of the king '
s meat .
*
Thus Melzar took away the portion of their meat ,
and the wine that they should drink ;
and gave them pulse .
