主ユダの王ヱホヤキムと神の家の器具幾何とをかれの手にわたしたまひければ則ちこれをシナルの地に携へゆきて己の神の家にいたりその器具を己の神の庫に蔵めたり
3 And the kyng seide to Asphaneth, souereyn of his onest seruauntis and chast, that he schulde brynge yn of the sones of Israel, and of the kyngis seed, and the children of tirauntis, in whiche weren no wem,

寺人の長かれらに名をあたへてダニエルをベルテシヤザルと名けハナニヤをシヤデラクと名けミシヤエルをメシヤクと名けアザリヤをアベデネゴと名く
8 Forsothe Danyel purposide in his herte, that he schulde not be defoulid of the boord of the kyng, nether of the wyn of his drink; and he preiede the souereyn of onest seruauntis and chast, that he schulde not be defoulid.
然るにダニエルは王の用ゐる饌と王の飮む酒とをもて己の身を汚すまじと心に思ひさだめたれば己の身を汚さざらしめんことを寺人の長に求む
9 Forsothe God yaf grace and merci to Daniel, in the siyt of the prince of onest seruauntis and chast.

是において寺人の長ダニエルに言けるは吾主なる王すでに命をくだして汝らの食物と汝らの飮物とを頒たしめたまへば我かれを畏る恐くは彼なんぢらの面の其同輩の少者等と異にして憂色あるを見ん然る時は汝らのために我首王の前に危からん
11 And Danyel seide to Malazar, whom the prince of onest seruauntis and chast hadde ordeynede on Danyel, Ananye, Mysael, and Asarie,
寺人の長はメルザル官をしてダニエル、ハナニヤ、ミシヤエル及びアザリヤを監督らせ置たればダニエル之に言けるは
12 Y biseche, asaie thou vs thi seruauntis bi ten daies, and potagis be youun to vs to ete, and water to drynke; and biholde thou oure cheris,

而して我らの面と王の饌を食ふ少者どもの面とを較べ見汝の視るところにしたがひて僕等を待ひたまへと

十日の後にいたりて見るに王の饌を食へる諸の少者よりも彼らの面は美しくまた肥え膩つきてありければ
16 Certis Malazar took the metis, and the wyn of the drynk of hem, and yaf to hem potagis.
メルザル官すなはち彼らの分なる饌と彼らの飮べき酒とを撤きさりて菜蔬をこれに與へたり
17 Forsothe to these children God yaf kunnyng and lernyng in ech book, and in al wisdom; but to Daniel God yaf vndurstondyng of alle visiouns and dremys.
この四人の少者には神知識を得させ諸の文學と智慧に頴からしめたまへりダニエはまた能く各諸の異象と夢兆を暁る

王かねて命をくだし少者どもを召いるる迄に經べき日を定めおきしがその日數も過たるに因て寺人の長かれらを引てネブカデザルの前にいたりければ
19 And whanne the kyng hadde spoke to hem, siche weren not foundun of alle, as Daniel, Ananye, Misael, and Azarie; and thei stoden in the siyt of the king.
王かれらと言談へり彼ら一切の中にはダニエル、ハナニヤ、ミシヤエル、アザリヤに比ぶ者あらざりければこの四人は王の前に侍れり
20 And ech word of wisdom and of vndurstondyng, which the king axide of hem, he foond in hem ten fold ouer alle false dyuynouris and astronomyens, that weren in al his rewme.
王かれらに諸の事を詢たづね見に彼らは智慧の學においてその全國の博士と法術士に愈ること十倍なり

ダニエルはクロス王の元年までありき
