NASB
"Now God granted Daniel favor and compassion in the sight of the commander of the officials,"
— Daniel 1:9, NASB
“Now God had brought Daniel into favour and tender love with the prince of the eunuchs.”
“Now God made Daniel to find kindness and compassion in the sight of the prince of the eunuchs. ”
“Now God made Daniel to find kindness and compassion in the sight of the prince of the eunuchs.”
“Then God made the overseer of the court officials sympathetic to Daniel.”
“And God gave to Daniel grace and mercy in the sight of the prince of the eunuchs.”
“And God put into the heart of the captain of the unsexed servants kind feelings and pity for Daniel.”
“Now God had brought Daniel into favour and tender love with the prince of the eunuchs.”
Now among them from the sons of Judah were Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael and Azariah.
Then the commander of the officials assigned new names to them; and to Daniel he assigned the name Belteshazzar, to Hananiah Shadrach, to Mishael Meshach and to Azariah Abed-nego.
But Daniel made up his mind that he would not defile himself with the king's choice food or with the wine which he drank; so he sought permission from the commander of the officials that he might not defile himself.
Now God granted Daniel favor and compassion in the sight of the commander of the officials,
and the commander of the officials said to Daniel, "I am afraid of my lord the king, who has appointed your food and your drink; for why should he see your faces looking more haggard than the youths who are your own age? Then you would make me forfeit my head to the king."
But Daniel said to the overseer whom the commander of the officials had appointed over Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael and Azariah,
"Please test your servants for ten days, and let us be given some vegetables to eat and water to drink.
