In the third year of ^(a)Cyrus king of Persia a ^[a]message was revealed to ^(b)Daniel, who was named Belteshazzar; and the ^[b](c)message was true and one of great ^[c]conflict, but he understood the ^[d]message and had an ^(d)understanding of the vision.

In those days, I, Daniel, had been ^(e)mourning for three entire weeks.

I ^(f)did not eat any ^[e]tasty food, nor did meat or wine enter my mouth, nor did I use any ointment at all until the entire three weeks were completed.
