Daniel 3:19-27

19ThenH116 was NebuchadnezzarH5020 full of fury, and the form of his visage was changedH8133 against ShadrachH7715, MeshachH4336, and Abed-negoH5665. He spoke, and commanded that they should heatH228 the furnaceH861 sevenH7655 times more than it was wont to be heatedH228.

20And he commanded the most mighty menH1400 that were in his armyH2429 to bind ShadrachH7715, MeshachH4336, and Abed-negoH5665, and cast them into the burning fiery furnaceH861.

21ThenH116 these menH1400 were bound in their hosen, their tunics, and their cloaks, and their garments, and were cast into the midstH1459 of the burning fiery furnaceH861.

22Forasmuch as the king's commandment was rigorous, and the furnaceH861 exceeding hot, the flame of the fireH5135 slew those menH1400 that had taken up ShadrachH7715, MeshachH4336, and Abed-negoH5665.

23And these threeH8532 menH1400, ShadrachH7715, MeshachH4336, and Abed-negoH5665, fellH5308 downH5308 bound into the midstH1459 of the burning fiery furnaceH861.

24ThenH116 NebuchadnezzarH5020 the kingH4430 was astonied, and rose up in hasteH927; he spoke and saidH560 unto his counsellors, Did not we cast threeH8532 menH1400 bound into the midstH1459 of the fireH5135? They answered and saidH560 to the kingH4430, True, O kingH4430.

25He answered and saidH560, Lo, I seeH2370 fourH703 menH1400 loose, walkingH1981 in the midstH1459 of the fireH5135, and they have no hurt; and the appearanceH7299 of the fourthH7244 is like a sonH1247 of 1GodH426.

26ThenH116 NebuchadnezzarH5020 cameH858 near to the opening of the burning fiery furnaceH861; he spoke and saidH560, ShadrachH7715, MeshachH4336, and Abed-negoH5665, ye servantsH5649 of the MostH5943 HighH5943 2GodH426, comeH858 forth, and comeH858 [hither]. ThenH116 ShadrachH7715, MeshachH4336, and Abed-negoH5665 cameH858 forth from the midstH1459 of the fireH5135.

27And the satrapsH324, the prefectsH5460, and the governorsH6347, and the king's counsellors, being gatheredH3673 together, sawH2370 these menH1400, upon whose bodiesH1655 the fireH5135 had had no power, nor was the hairH8177 of their headH7217 singed, neither were their hosen changedH8133, nor had the smell of fireH5135 passed on them.
