Löydetty 192 Tulokset: Daniel in the lion's den
The chief eunuch gave them other names, calling Daniel Belteshazzar, Hananiah Shadrach, Mishael Meshach, and Azariah Abed-Nego. (Daniel 1, 7)
Daniel, who was determined not to incur pollution by food and wine from the royal table, begged the chief eunuch to spare him this defilement. (Daniel 1, 8)
God allowed Daniel to receive faithful love and sympathy from the chief eunuch. (Daniel 1, 9)
But the eunuch warned Daniel, 'I am afraid of my lord the king: he has assigned you food and drink, and if he sees you looking thinner in the face than the other boys of your age, my head will be in danger with the king because of you.' (Daniel 1, 10)
To the guard assigned to Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael and Azariah by the chief eunuch, Daniel then said, (Daniel 1, 11)
To these four boys God gave knowledge and skill in every aspect of literature and learning; Daniel also had the gift of interpreting every kind of vision and dream. (Daniel 1, 17)
The king conversed with them, and among all the boys found none to equal Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael and Azariah. So they became members of the king's court, (Daniel 1, 19)
and on whatever point of wisdom or understanding he might question them, he found them ten times better than all the magicians and soothsayers in his entire kingdom. Daniel remained there until the first year of King Cyrus. (Daniel 1, 20)
On publication of the decree to have the sages killed, search was made for Daniel and his companions to have them put to death. (Daniel 2, 13)
Then, with shrewd and cautious words, Daniel approached Arioch, the king's chief executioner, when he was on his way to kill the Babylonian sages. (Daniel 2, 14)
To this royal official Arioch he said, 'Why has the king issued such a harsh decree?' Arioch explained matters to Daniel, (Daniel 2, 15)
and Daniel went off to ask the king for a stay of execution to give him the opportunity of revealing his interpretation to the king. (Daniel 2, 16)
