Daniel 3:18-25

Thomson(i) 18 But even though he do not, be it known to thee, king, that we cannot serve thy gods, nor will we worship the image which thou hast set up. 19 At this Nabuchodonosar was filled with wrath, and the form of his countenance was changed against Sedrach, Misach and Abdenago. And he ordered to heat the furnace seven fold, till it was hot as possible: 20 and commanded some strong men to bind Sedrach, Misach and Abdenago, and cast them into the furnace of fire which was heated. 21 Then were these men bound, clad as they were with their Babylonish dress and with turbans and boots; and cast into the midst of the furnace of fire which was heated, 22 as the command of the king was peremptory. But though the furnace was heated to an excessive degree and 23 these three men, Sedrach, Misach and Abdenago fell bound into the midst of the glowing furnace, yet they walked about in the midst of the flame, praising God and blessing the Lord. 24 When Nabuchodonosar heard them singing praise he was amazed and starting up hastily said to his nobles, Did we not cast three men bound into the midst of the fire? And when they said to the king, True, king, 25 the king said, Here I see four men loose and walking about in the midst of the fire unhurt: And the appearance of the fourth is like a son of a god.
