Daniel 3:13-18
13ThenH116 NebuchadnezzarH5020 in 1rageH7266 and angerH2528 gaveH560 ordersH560 to bringH858 ShadrachH7715, MeshachH4336 and Abed-negoH5665; thenH116 theseH479 menH1400 were broughtH858 beforeH6925 the kingH4430. 14NebuchadnezzarH5020 respondedH6032 and saidH560 to them, “Is it trueH6656, ShadrachH7715, MeshachH4336 and Abed-negoH5665, that you doH383 not serveH6399 2my godsH426 or worshipH5457 the goldenH1722 imageH6755 that I have setH6966 up? 15NowH3705 ifH2006 you are readyH6263, 3at the momentH5732 you hearH8086 the soundH7032 of the hornH7162, fluteH4953, 4lyreH7030, trigonH5443, psalteryH6460 and bagpipeH5481 and allH3606 kindsH2178 of musicH2170, to fallH5308 downH5308 and worshipH5457 the imageH6755 that I have madeH5648, very well. But ifH2006 you do not worshipH5457, you will 5immediatelyH8160 be 6castH7412 into the midstH1459 of a furnaceH861 of blazingH3345 fireH5135; and 7whatH4479 godH426 is there whoH1768 can deliverH7804 you out of my handsH3028?”
168ShadrachH7715, MeshachH4336 and Abed-negoH5665 repliedH6032 to the kingH4430, “O NebuchadnezzarH5020, we do not needH2818 to giveH8421 you an answerH6600 concerningH5922 thisH1836 matterH6600. 179IfH2006 it be so, our 10GodH426 whomH1768 we serveH6399 is ableH3202 to deliverH7804 us from the furnaceH861 of blazingH3345 fireH5135; 11and 12He will deliverH7804 us out of your handH3028, O kingH4430. 1813But even ifH2006 He does not, 14let it be knownH3046 to you, O kingH4430, that we are not going to serveH6399 your godsH426 or worshipH5457 the goldenH1722 imageH6755 that you have setH6966 up.”
