但以理书 1
1 犹大王约雅敬在位第三年，巴比伦王尼布甲尼撒来到耶路撒冷，将城围困。
In year three of [the] reign of Jehoiakim [the] king of Judah he came Nebuchadnezzar [the] king of Babylon Jerusalem and he laid siege on it.
2 主将犹大王约雅敬，并 神殿中器皿的几分交付他手。他就把这器皿带到示拿地，收入他神的庙里，放在他神的库中。
And he gave [the] Lord in hand his Jehoiakim [the] king of Judah and some of [the] end of [the] vessels of [the] house of God and he brought them [the] land of Shinar [the] house of god his and the vessels he brought [the] house of [the] treasury of god his.
3 王吩咐太监长亚施毗拿，从以色列人的宗室和贵胄中带进几个人来，
And he said the king to Ashpenaz [the] chief of officials his to bring some of [the] people of Israel and some of [the] offspring of royalty and some of the nobles.
4 就是年少没有残疾、相貌俊美、通达各样学问、知识聪明俱备、足能侍立在王宫里的，要教他们迦勒底的文字言语。
Youths whom not [was] in them any (blemish *Q(K)*) and good of appearance and having insight in all wisdom and knowing knowledge and understanding knowledge and whom ability [was] in them to stand in [the] palace of the king and to teach them [the] writing and [the] tongue of [the] Chaldeans.
5 王派定将自己所用的膳和所饮的酒，每日赐他们一分，养他们三年。满了三年，好叫他们在王面前侍立。
And he assigned to them the king [the] matter of a day in day its some of [the] deli-caci[es] of the king and some of [the] wine of drink his and to bring up them years three and from [the] end their they will stand before the king.
6 他们中间有犹大族的人：但以理、哈拿尼雅、米沙利、亚撒利雅。
And he was among them from [the] people of Judah Daniel Hananiah Mishael and Azariah.
7 太监长给他们起名：称但以理为伯提沙撒，称哈拿尼雅为沙得拉，称米沙利为米煞，称亚撒利雅为亚伯尼歌。
And he assigned to them [the] chief of the officials names and he assigned to Daniel Belteshazzar and to Hananiah Shadrach and to Mishael Meshach and to Azariah Abed-nego.
8 但以理却立志不以王的膳和王所饮的酒玷污自己，所以求太监长容他不玷污自己。
And he set Daniel on heart his that not he defiled himself with [the] delicaci[es] of the king and with [the] wine of drink his and he requested from [the] chief of the officials that not he will defile himself.
9 神使但以理在太监长眼前蒙恩惠，受怜悯。
And he gave God Daniel favor and compassion before [the] chief of the officials.
10 太监长对但以理说：“我惧怕我主我王，他已经派定你们的饮食，倘若他见你们的面貌比你们同岁的少年人肌瘦，怎么好呢？这样，你们就使我的头在王那里难保。”
And he said [the] chief of the officials to Daniel [am] fearing I master my the king who he has assigned food your and drink your that why? will he see faces your looking thin more than the youths who [are] about age your and you will endanger head my to the king.
11 但以理对太监长所派管理但以理、哈拿尼雅、米沙利、亚撒利雅的委办说：
And he said Daniel to the guardian whom he had assigned [the] chief of the officials over Daniel Hananiah Mishael and Azariah.
12 “求你试试仆人们十天，给我们素菜吃，白水喝，
Put to [the] test please servants your days ten so let people give to us some of the vegetables so we may eat and water so we may drink.
13 然后看看我们的面貌和用王膳那少年人的面貌，就照你所看的待仆人吧！”
And they may appear before you appearance our and [the] appearance of the youths who are eating [the] delicaci[es] of the king and just as you will see deal with servants your.
14 委办便允准他们这件事，试看他们十天。
And he listened to them to the thing this and he put to [the] test them days ten.
15 过了十天，见他们的面貌比用王膳的一切少年人更加俊美肥胖。
And from [the] end of days ten it appeared appearance their good and fat of flesh more than all the youths who were eating [the] delicaci[es] of the king.
16 于是委办撤去派他们用的膳，饮的酒，给他们素菜吃。
And he was the guardian taking away delicaci[es] their and [the] wine of drink their and giving to them vegetables.
17 这四个少年人， 神在各样文字学问上赐给他们聪明知识；但以理又明白各样的异象和梦兆。
And the youths these [the] four of them he gave to them God knowledge and insight in all writing and wisdom and Daniel he understood every vision and dreams.
18 尼布甲尼撒王预定带进少年人来的日期满了，太监长就把他们带到王面前。
And from [the] end of the days which he had said the king to bring them and he brought them [the] chief of the officials before Nebuchadnezzar.
19 王与他们谈论，见少年人中无一人能比但以理、哈拿尼雅、米沙利、亚撒利雅，所以留他们在王面前侍立。
And he spoke with them the king and not he was found any of all of them like Daniel Hananiah Mishael and Azariah and they stood before the king.
20 王考问他们一切事，就见他们的智慧聪明比通国的术士和用法术的胜过十倍。
And every matter of wisdom of understanding which he sought from them the king and he found them ten hands above all the soothsayer-priests the conjurers who [were] in all kingdom his.
21 到塞鲁士王元年，但以理还在。
And he was Daniel until year one of Cyrus the king.
