1:15 At the end of the ten days their appearance was better and their bodies were healthier 1 than all the young men who had been eating the royal delicacies. 1:16 So the warden removed the delicacies and the wine 2 from their diet 3 and gave them a diet of vegetables instead.
1 tn Heb “fat of flesh”; KJV, ASV “fatter in flesh”; NASB, NRSV “fatter” (although this is no longer a sign of health in Western culture).
2 tn Heb “the wine of their drinking.”
3 tn The words “from their diet” are not in the Hebrew text but have been added in the translation for clarity.
