8 And Daniel had come to the decision that he would not make himself unclean with the king's food or wine; so he made a request to the captain of the unsexed servants that he might not make himself unclean.

16 So the keeper regularly took away their meat and the wine which was to have been their drink, and gave them grain.

8 Y Daniel propuso en su corazón de no contaminarse en la ración de la comida del rey, ni en el vino de su beber: pidió por tanto al príncipe de los eunucos de no contaminarse.

16 Así fué que Melsar tomaba la ración de la comida de ellos, y el vino de su beber, y dábales legumbres.
