10. Formal Translation And the chief of the eunuchs said to Daniel, “I fear my lord the king, who has assigned your food and drink. If he sees you more downcast than the other young men your age, then you would make me liable before the king.” |
10. Dynamic Translation The chief official said to Daniel, “I am anxious about my lord the king, who supplies your food and drink. If he notices that you appear more troubled than the other young men your age, you will endanger my life with the king.” |
