8 Daniel, contudo, decidiu não se tornar impuro com a comida e com o vinho do rei, e pediu ao chefe dos oficiais permissão para se abster deles.

16 Assim o encarregado tirou a comida especial e o vinho que haviam sido designados e em lugar disso lhes dava vegetais.

8 But Daniel laid it upon his heart, that he would not defile himself with the delicacies of the king, nor with the wine which he drank,therefore sought he of the ruler of the eunuchs, that he might not defile himself.

16 Thus it came about that the overseer continued taking away their delicacies, and the wine appointed them to drink,and kept on giving them vegetable food.
