Daniel 3:19-28

19Then was NebuchadnezzarH5020 full of fury, and the form of his visage was changedH8133 againstH5922 ShadrachH7715, MeshachH4336, and Abed-negoH5665: therefore he spake, and commandedH560 that they should heatH228 the furnaceH861 sevenH7655 timesH2298 moreH5922 thanH1768 it was wont to be heatedH228.

20And he commandedH560 certainH1400 mighty menH1400 that were in is armyH2429 to bind ShadrachH7715, MeshachH4336, and Abed-negoH5665, and to castH7412 them intoH7412 the burning fiery furnaceH861.

21Then theseH479 menH1400 were boundH3729 in their hosen, their tunics, and their mantles, and their other garments, and were castH7412 intoH1459 the midstH1459 of the burning fiery furnaceH861.

22Therefore becauseH6903 the king’sH4430 commandment was urgentH2685, and the furnaceH861 exceeding hotH228, the flameH7631 of the fireH5135 slewH6992 thoseH479 menH1400 that took upH5267 ShadrachH7715, MeshachH4336, and Abed-negoH5665.

23And theseH479 threeH8532 menH1400, ShadrachH7715, MeshachH4336, and Abed-negoH5665, fellH5308 downH5308 boundH3729 intoH1459 the midstH1459 of the burning fiery furnaceH861.

24Then NebuchadnezzarH5020 the kingH4430 was astonied, and rose upH3729 in hasteH927: he spake and saidH560 unto his counsellors, Did notH3809 weH116 castH7412 threeH8532 menH1400 boundH3729 intoH1459 the midstH1459 of the fireH5135? They answeredH6032 and saidH560 unto the kingH4430, True, O kingH4430.

25He answeredH6032 and saidH560, Lo, I seeH2370 fourH703 menH1400 loose, walkingH1981 in the midstH1459 of the fireH5135, and they have noH3809 hurt; and the aspect of the fourthH7244 is like a sonH1247 of the godsH426.

26Then NebuchadnezzarH5020 cameH858 nearH7127 to the mouth of the burning fiery furnaceH861: he spake and saidH560, ShadrachH7715, MeshachH4336, and Abed-negoH5665, ye servantsH5649 of the MostH5943 HighH5943 GodH426, comeH858 forthH5312, and comeH858 hither. Then ShadrachH7715, MeshachH4336, and Abed-negoH5665, cameH858 forthH5312 out of the midstH1459 of the fireH5135.

27And the satrapsH324, the deputies, and the governorsH6347, and the king’sH4430 counsellors, being gatheredH3673 together, sawH2370 theseH479 menH1400, that the fireH5135 had noH3809 power upon their bodiesH1655, norH3809 was the hairH8177 of their headH7217 singedH2761, neitherH3809 were their hosen changedH8133, norH3809 had the smellH7382 of fireH5135 passed on them.

28NebuchadnezzarH5020 spake and saidH560, BlessedH1289 be the GodH426 of ShadrachH7715, MeshachH4336, and Abed-negoH5665, who hath sentH7972 his angelH4398, and deliveredH7804 his servantsH5649 that trustedH7365 in him, and have changedH8133 the king’sH4430 wordH4406, and have yieldedH3052 their bodiesH1655, that they might notH3809 serveH6399 norH3809 worshipH5457 anyH3606 godH426, exceptH3861 their own GodH426.
