Daniel 3:1-18

1NebuchadnezzarH5020 the kingH4430 madeH5648 an imageH6755 of goldH1722, whose heightH7314 was sixtyH8361 cubitsH521, and the breadthH6613 of it sixH8353 cubitsH521: he set it upH6966 in the plainH1236 of DuraH1757, in the provinceH4083 of BabylonH895. 2Then NebuchadnezzarH5020 the kingH4430 sentH7972 to gather togetherH3673 the princesH324, the governorsH5460, and the captainsH6347, the judgesH148, the treasurersH1411, the counsellorsH1884, the sheriffsH8614, and allH3606 the rulersH7984 of the provincesH4083, to comeH858 to the dedicationH2597 of the imageH6755 which NebuchadnezzarH5020 the kingH4430 had set upH6966. 3ThenH116 the princesH324, the governorsH5460, and captainsH6347, the judgesH148, the treasurersH1411, the counsellorsH1884, the sheriffsH8614, and allH3606 the rulersH7984 of the provincesH4083, were gathered togetherH3673 to the dedicationH2597 of the imageH6755 that NebuchadnezzarH5020 the kingH4430 had set upH6966; and they stoodH6966 beforeH6903 the imageH6755 that NebuchadnezzarH5020 had set upH6966. 4Then an heraldH3744 criedH7123 aloudH2429, To you it is commandedH560, O peopleH5972, nationsH524, and languagesH3961,12 5That at what timeH5732 ye hearH8086 the soundH7032 of the cornetH7162, fluteH4953, harpH7030, sackbutH5443, psalteryH6460, dulcimerH5481, and allH3606 kindsH2178 of musicH2170, ye fall downH5308 and worshipH5457 the goldenH1722 imageH6755 that NebuchadnezzarH5020 the kingH4430 hath set upH6966:3 6And whoeverH4479 fallethH5308 notH3809 downH5308 and worshippethH5457 shall the same hourH8160 be castH7412 into the midstH1459 of a burningH3345 fieryH5135 furnaceH861. 7ThereforeH6903H1836 at that timeH2166, whenH1768 allH3606 the peopleH5972 heardH8086 the soundH7032 of the cornetH7162, fluteH4953, harpH7030, sackbutH5443, psalteryH6460, and allH3606 kindsH2178 of musicH2170, allH3606 the peopleH5972, the nationsH524, and the languagesH3961, fell downH5308 and worshippedH5457 the goldenH1722 imageH6755 that NebuchadnezzarH5020 the kingH4430 had set upH6966.

8ThereforeH6903H3606 at thatH1836 timeH2166 certainH1400 ChaldeansH3779 came nearH7127, and accusedH7170H399 the JewsH3062. 9They spokeH6032 and saidH560 to the kingH4430 NebuchadnezzarH5020, O kingH4430, liveH2418 for everH5957. 10ThouH607, O kingH4430, hast madeH7761 a decreeH2942, that everyH3606 manH606 that shall hearH8086 the soundH7032 of the cornetH7162, fluteH4953, harpH7030, sackbutH5443, psalteryH6460, and dulcimerH5481, and allH3606 kindsH2178 of musicH2170, shall fall downH5308 and worshipH5457 the goldenH1722 imageH6755:4 11And whoeverH4479 fallethH5308 notH3809 downH5308 and worshippethH5457, that he shall be castH7412 into the midstH1459 of a burningH3345 fieryH5135 furnaceH861. 12There areH383 certainH1400 JewsH3062 whomH3487 thou hast setH4483 overH5922 the affairsH5673 of the provinceH4083 of BabylonH895, ShadrachH7715, MeshachH4336, and AbednegoH5665; theseH479 menH1400, O kingH4430, haveH7761 notH3809 regardedH2942 theeH5922: they serveH6399 notH3809 thy godsH426, norH3809 worshipH5457 the goldenH1722 imageH6755 which thou hast set upH6966.5 13ThenH116 NebuchadnezzarH5020 in his rageH7266 and furyH2528 commandedH560 to bringH858 ShadrachH7715, MeshachH4336, and AbednegoH5665. ThenH116 they broughtH858 theseH479 menH1400 beforeH6925 the kingH4430. 14NebuchadnezzarH5020 spokeH6032 and saidH560 to them, Is it trueH6656, O ShadrachH7715, MeshachH4336, and AbednegoH5665, do yeH383 notH3809 serveH6399 my godsH426, norH3809 worshipH5457 the goldenH1722 imageH6755 which I have setH6966 up?6 15NowH3705 ifH2006 ye beH383 readyH6263 that at what timeH5732 ye hearH8086 the soundH7032 of the cornetH7162, fluteH4953, harpH7030, sackbutH5443, psalteryH6460, and dulcimerH5481, and allH3606 kindsH2178 of musicH2170, ye fall downH5308 and worshipH5457 the imageH6755 which I have madeH5648; well : but ifH2006 ye worshipH5457 notH3809, ye shall be castH7412 the same hourH8160 into the midstH1459 of a burningH3345 fieryH5135 furnaceH861; and whoH4479 is that GodH426 that shall deliverH7804 you out ofH4481 my handsH3028?7 16ShadrachH7715, MeshachH4336, and AbednegoH5665, answeredH6032 and saidH560 to the kingH4430, O NebuchadnezzarH5020, weH586 are notH3809 carefulH2818 to answerH8421 thee inH5922 thisH1836 matterH6600. 17IfH2006 it is so, our GodH426 whom weH586 serveH6399 isH383 ableH3202 to deliverH7804 us fromH4481 the burningH3345 fieryH5135 furnaceH861, andH4481 he will deliverH7804 us out ofH4481 thy handH3028, O kingH4430. 18But ifH2006 notH3809, be itH1934 knownH3046 to thee, O kingH4430, that we willH383 notH3809 serveH6399 thy godsH426, norH3809 worshipH5457 the goldenH1722 imageH6755 which thou hast set upH6966.
