3 And the king said to Ashpenaz the chief of his eunuchs to bring in some of the sons of Israel, and some of the seed of the king and of the nobles, 4 young men in whom there was not any blemish, and of good appearance, and being skilled in all wisdom, and knowing knowledge, and understanding learning, and who had power in them to serve in the palace of the king and to teach them and literature and language of the Chaldeans. 5 And the king counted out for them provision day by day from the choice portion of the king, and from the wine of his banquets, and of training for them three years, after which they were to stand before the king. 6 And there were among them of the sons of Judah—Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah. 7 And the chief of the eunuchs set for them names; and he gave to Daniel Belteshazzar, and to Hananiah Shadrach, and to Mishael Meshach, and to Azariah Abed-nego.
