International Standard Version

⁷ The chief officer assigned the name “Belteshazzar” to Daniel, the name “Shadrach” to Hananiah, the name “Meshach” to Mishael, and the name “Abednego” to Azariah.

Daniel Chooses God’s Standard

⁸ Daniel determined within himself not to become defiled by the king’s menu of rich foods or by the king’s wine, so he requested permission^[a] from the chief officer not to defile himself. ⁹ God granted to Daniel grace and compassion on the part of the chief officer.
