1 H5020 Nebuchadnezzar H4430 the king H5648 [H8754] made H6755 an image H1722 of gold, H7314 whose height H8361 was sixty H521 cubits, H6613 and the breadth H8353 of it six H521 cubits: H6966 [H8684] he set it up H1236 in the plain H1757 of Dura, H4083 in the province H895 of Babylon.

2 H5020 Then Nebuchadnezzar H4430 the king H7972 [H8754] sent H3673 [H8749] to gather together H324 the princes, H5460 the governors, H6347 and the captains, H148 the judges, H1411 the treasurers, H1884 the counsellors, H8614 the sheriffs, H3606 and all H7984 the rulers H4083 of the provinces, H858 [H8749] to come H2597 to the dedication H6755 of the image H5020 which Nebuchadnezzar H4430 the king H6966 [H8684] had set up.

3 H116 Then H324 the princes, H5460 the governors, H6347 and captains, H148 the judges, H1411 the treasurers, H1884 the counsellors, H8614 the sheriffs, H3606 and all H7984 the rulers H4083 of the provinces, H3673 [H8723] were gathered together H2597 to the dedication H6755 of the image H5020 that Nebuchadnezzar H4430 the king H6966 [H8684] had set up; H6966 [H8750] and they stood H6903 before H6755 the image H5020 that Nebuchadnezzar H6966 [H8684] had set up.

4 H3744 Then an herald H7123 [H8751] called H2429 aloud, H560 [H8750] To you it is commanded, H5972 O people, H524 nations, H3961 and languages,

5 H5732 That at what time H8086 [H8748] ye hear H7032 the sound H7162 of the cornet, H4953 flute, H7030 H7030 [H8675] harp, H5443 sackbut, H6460 psaltery, H5481 dulcimer, H3606 and all H2178 kinds H2170 of music, H5308 [H8748] ye fall down H5457 [H8748] and worship H1722 the golden H6755 image H5020 that Nebuchadnezzar H4430 the king H6966 [H8684] hath set up:

6 H4479 And whoever H5308 0 falleth H3809 not H5308 [H8748] down H5457 [H8748] and worshippeth H8160 shall the same hour H7412 [H8729] be cast H1459 into the midst H3345 [H8751] of a burning H5135 fiery H861 furnace.

7 H6903 H1836 Therefore H2166 at that time, H1768 when H3606 all H5972 the people H8086 [H8750] heard H7032 the sound H7162 of the cornet, H4953 flute, H7030 H7030 [H8675] harp, H5443 sackbut, H6460 psaltery, H3606 and all H2178 kinds H2170 of music, H3606 all H5972 the people, H524 the nations, H3961 and the languages, H5308 [H8750] fell down H5457 [H8750] and worshipped H1722 the golden H6755 image H5020 that Nebuchadnezzar H4430 the king H6966 [H8684] had set up.

8 H6903 H3606 Therefore H1836 at that H2166 time H1400 certain H3779 Chaldeans H7127 [H8754] came near, H7170 H399 [H8754] and accused H3062 the Judeans.

9 H6032 [H8754] They spoke H560 [H8750] and said H4430 to the king H5020 Nebuchadnezzar, H4430 O king, H2418 [H8747] live H5957 for ever.

10 H607 Thou, H4430 O king, H7761 [H8754] hast made H2942 a decree, H3606 that every H606 man H8086 [H8748] that shall hear H7032 the sound H7162 of the cornet, H4953 flute, H7030 H7030 [H8675] harp, H5443 sackbut, H6460 psaltery, H5481 H5481 [H8675] and dulcimer, H3606 and all H2178 kinds H2170 of music, H5308 [H8748] shall fall down H5457 [H8748] and worship H1722 the golden H6755 image:

11 H4479 And whoever H5308 0 falleth H3809 not H5308 [H8748] down H5457 [H8748] and worshippeth, H7412 [H8729] that he shall be cast H1459 into the midst H3345 [H8751] of a burning H5135 fiery H861 furnace.

12 H383 There are H1400 certain H3062 Judeans H3487 whom H4483 [H8745] thou hast set H5922 over H5673 the affairs H4083 of the province H895 of Babylon, H7715 Shadrach, H4336 Meshach, H5665 and Abednego; H479 these H1400 men, H4430 O king, H7761 [H8754] have H3809 not H2942 regarded H5922 thee: H6399 [H8750] they serve H3809 not H426 thy gods, H3809 nor H5457 [H8750] worship H1722 the golden H6755 image H6966 [H8684] which thou hast set up.

13 H116 Then H5020 Nebuchadnezzar H7266 in his rage H2528 and fury H560 [H8754] commanded H858 [H8682] to bring H7715 Shadrach, H4336 Meshach, H5665 and Abednego. H116 Then H858 [H8717] they brought H479 these H1400 men H6925 before H4430 the king.

14 H5020 Nebuchadnezzar H6032 [H8750] spoke H560 [H8750] and said H6656 to them, Is it true, H7715 O Shadrach, H4336 Meshach, H5665 and Abednego, H383 do ye H3809 not H6399 [H8750] serve H426 my gods, H3809 nor H5457 [H8750] worship H1722 the golden H6755 image H6966 [H8684] which I have set up?

15 H3705 Now H2006 if H383 ye be H6263 ready H5732 that at what time H8086 [H8748] ye hear H7032 the sound H7162 of the cornet, H4953 flute, H7030 H7030 [H8675] harp, H5443 sackbut, H6460 psaltery, H5481 and dulcimer, H3606 and all H2178 kinds H2170 of music, H5308 [H8748] ye fall down H5457 [H8748] and worship H6755 the image H5648 [H8754] which I have made; H2006 well: but if H5457 [H8748] ye worship H3809 not, H7412 [H8729] ye shall be cast H8160 the same hour H1459 into the midst H3345 [H8751] of a burning H5135 fiery H861 furnace; H4479 and who H426 is that God H7804 [H8755] that shall deliver H4481 you out of H3028 my hands?

16 H7715 Shadrach, H4336 Meshach, H5665 and Abednego, H6032 [H8754] answered H560 [H8750] and said H4430 to the king, H5020 O Nebuchadnezzar, H586 we H3809 are not H2818 [H8750] careful H8421 [H8682] to answer H5922 thee in H1836 this H6600 matter.

17 H2006 If H426 it is so, our God H586 whom we H6399 [H8750] serve H383 is H3202 [H8750] able H7804 [H8756] to deliver H4481 us from H3345 [H8751] the burning H5135 fiery H861 furnace, H4481 0 and H7804 [H8755] he will deliver H4481 us out of H3028 thy hand, H4430 O king.

18 H2006 But if H3809 not, H1934 [H8748] be it H3046 [H8752] known H4430 to thee, O king, H383 that we will H3809 not H6399 [H8750] serve H426 thy gods, H3809 nor H5457 [H8748] worship H1722 the golden H6755 image H6966 [H8684] which thou hast set up.

19 H116 Then H5020 was Nebuchadnezzar H4391 [H8728] full H2528 of fury, H6755 and the form H600 of his visage H8133 [H8724] was changed H5922 against H7715 Shadrach, H4336 Meshach, H5665 and Abednego: H6032 [H8750] therefore he spoke, H560 [H8750] and commanded H228 [H8749] that they should heat H861 the furnace H2298 seven H7655 times H5922 more H1768 than H228 [H8749] it was heated H2370 [H8752] before.

20 H560 [H8754] And he commanded H2429 the most H1401 mighty H1400 men H2429 that were in his army H3729 [H8742] to bind H7715 Shadrach, H4336 Meshach, H5665 and Abednego, H7412 [H8749] and to cast H3345 [H8751] them into the burning H5135 fiery H861 furnace.

21 H116 Then H479 these H1400 men H3729 [H8760] were bound H5622 in their coats, H6361 H6361 [H8675] their trousers, H3737 and their turbans, H3831 and their other garments, H7412 [H8752] and were cast H1459 into the midst H3345 [H8751] of the burning H5135 fiery H861 furnace.

22 H3606 H6903 Therefore H4481 H1836 because H4430 the king's H4406 commandment H2685 [H8683] was urgent, H861 and the furnace H3493 exceeding H228 [H8752] hot, H7631 the flame H5135 of the fire H6992 [H8745] killed H479 those H1400 H1994 men H5267 [H8684] that took up H7715 Shadrach, H4336 Meshach, H5665 and Abednego.

23 H479 And these H8532 three H1400 men, H7715 Shadrach, H4336 Meshach, H5665 and Abednego, H5308 [H8754] fell down H3729 [H8743] bound H1459 into the midst H3345 [H8751] of the burning H5135 fiery H861 furnace.

24 H116 Then H5020 Nebuchadnezzar H4430 the king H8429 [H8754] was astonished, H6966 [H8754] and rose up H927 [H8726] in haste, H6032 [H8750] and spoke, H560 [H8750] and said H1907 to his counsellors, H3809 Did we not H7412 [H8754] cast H8532 three H1400 men H3729 [H8743] bound H1459 into the midst H5135 of the fire? H6032 [H8750] They answered H560 [H8750] and said H4430 to the king, H3330 True, H4430 O king.

25 H6032 [H8750] He answered H560 [H8750] and said, H1888 Lo, H576 I H2370 [H8751] see H703 four H1400 men H8271 [H8750] loose, H1981 [H8683] walking H1459 in the midst H5135 of the fire, H383 and they have H3809 no H2257 hurt; H7299 and the form H7244 of the fourth H1821 [H8751] is like H1247 the Son H426 of God.

26 H116 Then H5020 Nebuchadnezzar H7127 [H8754] came near H8651 to the mouth H3345 [H8751] of the burning H5135 fiery H861 furnace, H6032 [H8750] and spoke, H560 [H8750] and said, H7715 Shadrach, H4336 Meshach, H5665 and Abednego, H5649 ye servants H5943 of the most high H426 God, H5312 [H8747] come forth, H858 [H8747] and come H116 here. Then H7715 Shadrach, H4336 Meshach, H5665 and Abednego, H5312 [H8750] came forth H4481 from H1459 the midst H5135 of the fire.

27 H324 And the princes, H5460 governors, H6347 and captains, H4430 and the king's H1907 counsellors, H3673 [H8723] being gathered together, H2370 [H8751] saw H479 these H1400 men, H1655 upon whose bodies H5135 the fire H3809 had no H7981 [H8754] power, H3809 nor H8177 was an hair H7217 of their head H2761 [H8724] singed, H3809 neither H5622 were their coats H8133 [H8754] changed, H3809 nor H7382 had the odour H5135 of fire H5709 [H8754] passed upon them.

28 H5020 Then Nebuchadnezzar H6032 [H8750] spoke, H560 [H8750] and said, H1289 [H8752] Blessed H426 be the God H7715 of Shadrach, H4336 Meshach, H5665 and Abednego, H7972 [H8754] who hath sent H4398 his messenger, H7804 [H8758] and delivered H5649 his servants H7365 [H8702] that trusted H5922 in him, H8133 [H8745] and have changed H4430 the king's H4406 word, H3052 [H8754] and yielded H1655 their bodies, H3809 that they might not H6399 [H8748] serve H3809 nor H5457 [H8748] worship H3606 any H426 god, H3861 except H426 their own God.

29 H4481 Therefore I H7761 [H8752] make H2942 a decree, H3606 That every H5972 people, H524 nation, H3961 and language, H560 [H8748] which speak H7960 H7955 [H8675] any thing amiss H5922 against H426 the God H7715 of Shadrach, H4336 Meshach, H5665 and Abednego, H5648 [H8725] shall be cut H1917 in pieces, H1005 and their houses H7739 [H8721] shall be made H5122 a refuse heap: H6903 H3606 because H383 there is H3809 no H321 other H426 God H3202 [H8748] that can H5338 [H8682] deliver H1836 after this sort.

30 H116 Then H4430 the king H6744 [H8684] promoted H7715 Shadrach, H4336 Meshach, H5665 and Abednego, H4083 in the province H895 of Babylon.
