3SoH116 the satrapsH324, prefectsH5460, governorsH6347, advisersH148, treasurersH1411, judgesH1884, magistratesH8614, and allH3606 the rulersH7984 of the provincesH4083 assembledH3673 for the dedicationH2597 of the statueH6755 thatH1768 KingH4430 NebuchadnezzarH5020 had set upH6966, and they stoodH6966 beforeH6903 it.
4Then the heraldH3744 loudlyH2429 proclaimedH7123, “O peopleH5972 of every nationH524 and languageH3961, this is what you are commandedH560: 5As soon asH5732H1768 you hearH8086 the soundH7032 of the hornH7162, fluteH4953, zitherH7030, lyreH5443, harpH6460, pipesH5481, and allH3606 kindsH2178 of musicH2170,1 you must fall downH5308 and worshipH5457 the goldenH1722H1768 statue thatH6755 KingH4430 NebuchadnezzarH5020 has set upH6966. 6And whoeverH4479H1768 does notH3809 fall downH5308 and worshipH5457 will immediatelyH8160 be thrownH7412 intoH1459 the blazingH3345 fieryH5135 furnaceH861.”
