Daniel 1:13

Listen to Daniel 1:13
13 Parezcan luego delante de ti nuestros rostros, y los rostros de los muchachos que comen de la ración de la comida del rey; y según que vieres, harás con tus siervos.

Daniel 1:13 Meaning and Commentary

Daniel 1:13

Then let our countenances be looked upon before thee
And be thoroughly examined, whether any alteration is made therein for the worse: and the countenance of the children that eat of the portion of the
king's meat;
who were either Chaldean youths brought up in this manner; or rather young men of the Jews, who were not so scrupulous as Daniel and his companions, and made no objection to eating the king's food; let their countenances and ours be compared together: and as thou seest deal with thy servants:
if there is no difference, or we are not the worse for abstaining from the king's meat, then grant us our request, and continue to indulge us in this manner; but, if otherwise, do as thou wilt. Daniel, no doubt, in putting the matter on this issue, as it should turn out at the end of ten days, had a revelation or assurance from God how it would be, or he would never have ventured to put it to such a trial.

Daniel 1:13 In-Context

11 Entonces dijo Daniel á Melsar, que estaba puesto por el príncipe de los eunucos sobre Daniel, Ananías, Misael, y Azarías:
12 Prueba, te ruego, tus siervos diez días, y dennos legumbres á comer, y agua á beber.
13 Parezcan luego delante de ti nuestros rostros, y los rostros de los muchachos que comen de la ración de la comida del rey; y según que vieres, harás con tus siervos.
14 Consintió pues con ellos en esto, y probó con ellos diez días.
15 Y al cabo de los diez días pareció el rostro de ellos mejor y más nutrido de carne, que los otros muchachos que comían de la ración de comida del rey.
