Daniel 3:1 Nebuchadnezzar5020 the king4430 made5648 an image6755 of gold,1722 whose height7314was threescore8361 cubits,521and the breadth6613 thereof six8353 cubits:521 he set it up6966 in the plain1236 of Dura,1757 in the province4083 of Babylon.8952 Then Nebuchadnezzar5020 the king4430 sent7972 to gather together3673 the princes,324 the governors,5460 and the captains,6347 the judges,148 the treasurers,1411 the counsellors,1884 the sheriffs,8614 and all3606 the rulers7984 of the provinces,4083 to come858 to the dedication2597 of the image6755 which Nebuchadnezzar5020 the king4430 had set up.69663 Then116 the princes,324 the governors,5460 and captains,6347 the judges,148 the treasurers,1411 the counsellors,1884 the sheriffs,8614 and all3606 the rulers7984 of the provinces,4083 were gathered together3673 unto the dedication2597 of the image6755 that Nebuchadnezzar5020 the king4430 had set up;6966 and they stood6966 before6903 the image6755 that Nebuchadnezzar5020 had set up.69664 Then an herald3744 cried7123 aloud,2429{Cald. with might} To you it is commanded,560{Cald. they commanded} O people,5972 nations,524 and languages,39615That at what time5732 ye hear8086 the sound7032 of the cornet,7162 flute,4953 harp,70307030 sackbut,5443 psaltery,6460 dulcimer,5481{Or, singing. Cald. Symphony} and all3606 kinds2178 of musick,2170 ye fall down5308 and worship5457 the golden1722 image6755 that Nebuchadnezzar5020 the king4430 hath set up:69666 And whoso4479 falleth53082794 not3809 down5308 and worshippeth5457 shall the same hour8160 be cast7412 into the midst1459 of a burning3345 fiery5135 furnace.8617 Therefore69031836 at that time,2166 when1768 all3606 the people5972 heard8086 the sound7032 of the cornet,7162 flute,4953 harp,70307030 sackbut,5443 psaltery,6460 and all3606 kinds2178 of musick,2170 all3606 the people,5972 the nations,524 and the languages,3961 fell down5308and worshipped5457 the golden1722 image6755 that Nebuchadnezzar5020 the king4430 had set up.6966
Daniel 3:8 Wherefore69033606 at that1836 time2166 certain1400 Chaldeans3779 came near,7127 and accused7170399 the Jews.30629 They spake6032 and said560 to the king4430 Nebuchadnezzar,5020 O king,4430 live2418 for ever.595710 Thou,607 O king,4430 hast made7761 a decree,2942 that every3606 man606 that shall hear8086 the sound7032 of the cornet,7162 flute,4953 harp,70307030 sackbut,5443 psaltery,6460 and dulcimer,54815481 and all3606 kinds2178 of musick,2170 shall fall down5308 and worship5457 the golden1722 image:675511 And whoso4479 falleth53082794 not3809 down5308 and worshippeth,5457that he should be cast7412 into the midst1459 of a burning3345 fiery5135 furnace.86112 There are383 certain1400 Jews3062 whom3487 thou hast set4483 over5922 the affairs5673 of the province4083 of Babylon,895 Shadrach,7715 Meshach,4336 and Abednego;5665 these479 men,1400 O king,4430 have7761 not3809 regarded2942 thee:5922{Cald. have set no regard upon thee} they serve6399 not3809 thy gods,426 nor3809 worship5457 the golden1722 image6755 which thou hast set up.6966
Daniel 3:13 Then116 Nebuchadnezzar5020 in his rage7266 and fury2528 commanded560 to bring858 Shadrach,7715 Meshach,4336 and Abednego.5665 Then116 they brought858 these479 men1400 before6925 the king.443014 Nebuchadnezzar5020 spake6032 and said560 unto them, Isit true,6656{Or, of purpose, as Exodus 21.13} O Shadrach,7715 Meshach,4336 and Abednego,5665 do not3809 ye383 serve6399 my gods,426 nor3809 worship5457 the golden1722 image6755 which I have set6966 up?
15 Now3705 if2006 ye be383 ready6263 that at what time5732 ye hear8086 the sound7032 of the cornet,7162 flute,4953 harp,70307030 sackbut,5443 psaltery,6460 and dulcimer,5481 and all3606 kinds2178 of musick,2170 ye fall down5308 and worship5457 the image6755 which I have made;5648well: but if2006 ye worship5457 not,3809 ye shall be cast7412 the same hour8160 into the midst1459 of a burning3345 fiery5135 furnace;861 and who4479is that God426 that shall deliver7804 you out of4481 my hands?302816 Shadrach,7715 Meshach,4336 and Abednego,5665 answered6032 and said560 to the king,4430 O Nebuchadnezzar,5020 we586are not3809 careful2818 to answer8421 thee in5922 this1836 matter.660017 If2006 it be so, our God426 whom we586 serve6399 is383 able3202 to deliver7804 us from4481 the burning3345 fiery5135 furnace,861 and44812794 he will deliver7804us out of4481 thine hand,3028 O king.443018 But if2006 not,3809 be it1934 known3046 unto thee, O king,4430 that we will383 not3809 serve6399 thy gods,426 nor3809 worship5457 the golden1722 image6755 which thou hast set up.6966
Daniel 3:19 Then116 was Nebuchadnezzar5020 full4391{Cald. filled} of fury,2528 and the form6755 of his visage600 was changed8133 against5922 Shadrach,7715 Meshach,4336 and Abednego:5665therefore he spake,6032 and commanded560 that they should heat228 the furnace861 one2298 seven times7655 more5922 than1768 it was wont2370 to be heated.22820 And he commanded560 the most2429 mighty1401{Cald. mighty of strength} men1400 that were in his army2429 to bind3729 Shadrach,7715 Meshach,4336 and Abednego,5665and to cast7412them into the burning3345 fiery5135 furnace.86121 Then116 these479 men1400 were bound3729 in their coats,5622{Or, mantles} their hosen,63616361 and their hats,3737{Or, turbant} and their other garments,3831 and were cast7412 into the midst1459 of the burning3345 fiery5135 furnace.86122 Therefore36066903 because44811836 the king's4430 commandment4406{Cald. word} was urgent,2685 and the furnace861 exceeding3493 hot,228 the flame7631{Or, spark} of the fire5135 slew6992 those479 men14001994 that took up5267 Shadrach,7715 Meshach,4336 and Abednego.566523 And these479 three8532 men,1400 Shadrach,7715 Meshach,4336 and Abednego,5665 fell down5308 bound3729 into the midst1459 of the burning3345 fiery5135 furnace.861
Daniel 3:24 Then116 Nebuchadnezzar5020 the king4430 was astonied,8429 and rose up6966 in haste,927and spake,6032 and said560 unto his counsellors,1907{Or, governors} Did not3809 we cast7412 three8532 men1400 bound3729 into the midst1459 of the fire?5135 They answered6032 and said560 unto the king,4430 True,3330 O king.443025 He answered6032 and said,560 Lo,1888 I576 see2370 four703 men1400 loose,8271 walking1981 in the midst1459 of the fire,5135 and they have383 no3809 hurt;2257{Cald. there is no hurt in them} and the form7299 of the fourth7244 is like1821 the Son1247 of God.426
Daniel 3:26 Then116 Nebuchadnezzar5020 came near7127 to the mouth8651{Cald. door} of the burning3345 fiery5135 furnace,861and spake,6032 and said,560 Shadrach,7715 Meshach,4336 and Abednego,5665 ye servants5649 of the most high5943 God,426 come forth,5312 and come858hither. Then116 Shadrach,7715 Meshach,4336 and Abednego,5665 came forth5312 of4481 the midst1459 of the fire.513527 And the princes,324 governors,5460 and captains,6347 and the king's4430 counsellors,1907 being gathered together,3673 saw2370 these479 men,1400 upon whose bodies1655 the fire5135 had no3809 power,7981 nor3809 was an hair8177 of their head7217 singed,2761 neither3809 were their coats5622 changed,8133 nor3809 the smell7382 of fire5135 had passed5709 on them.
Daniel 3:28Then Nebuchadnezzar5020 spake,6032 and said,560 Blessed1289be the God426 of Shadrach,7715 Meshach,4336 and Abednego,5665 who hath sent7972 his angel,4398 and delivered7804 his servants5649 that trusted7365 in him,5922 and have changed8133 the king's4430 word,4406 and yielded3052 their bodies,1655 that they might not3809 serve6399 nor3809 worship5457 any3606 god,426 except3861 their own God.42629 Therefore I4481 make7761 a decree,2942{Cald. a decree is made by me} That every3606 people,5972 nation,524 and language,3961 which speak560 any thing amiss79607955{Cald. error} against5922 the God426 of Shadrach,7715 Meshach,4336 and Abednego,5665 shall be cut5648 in pieces,1917 and their houses1005 shall be made7739 a dunghill:5122 because69033606 there is383 no3809 other321 God426 that can3202 deliver5338 after this1836 sort.
30 Then116 the king4430 promoted6744{Cald. made to prosper} Shadrach,7715 Meshach,4336 and Abednego,5665 in the province4083 of Babylon.895
