The king took some holy items. He brought them to Shinar and kept them in his god's store. The king told Ashpenaz, his helper, to bring some young men. They were from the royal family and nobles of Israel. These young men were good and healthy. They were wise and knew much. They could serve in the king’s palace. Ashpenaz was to teach them the Chaldean language. The king gave them his special food and his wine every day. They ate for three years. At the end, they must serve the king. Among the young men from Judah were Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah. The helper gave them new names. Daniel was called Belteshazzar.
