Daniel:3:19-27
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Then was Nebuchadnezzar full of fury ,
and the form of his visage was changed against Shadrach ,
Meshach ,
and Abednego :
therefore he spake ,
and commanded that they should heat the furnace one seven times more than it was wont to be heated .
*
And he commanded the most mighty men that were in his army to bind Shadrach ,
Meshach ,
and Abednego ,
and to cast them into the burning fiery furnace .
*
Then these men were bound in their coats ,
their hosen ,
and their hats ,
and their other garments ,
and were cast into the midst of the burning fiery furnace .
*
Therefore because the king '
s commandment was urgent ,
and the furnace exceeding hot ,
the flame of the fire slew those men that took up Shadrach ,
Meshach ,
and Abednego .
*
And these three men ,
Shadrach ,
Meshach ,
and Abednego ,
fell down bound into the midst of the burning fiery furnace .
*
Then Nebuchadnezzar the king was astonied ,
and rose up in haste ,
and spake ,
and said unto his counsellors ,
Did not we cast three men bound into the midst of the fire ?
They answered and said unto the king ,
True ,
O king .
*
He answered and said ,
Lo ,
I see four men loose ,
walking in the midst of the fire ,
and they have no hurt ;
and the form of the fourth is like the Son of God .
*
Then Nebuchadnezzar came near to the mouth of the burning fiery furnace ,
and spake ,
and said ,
Shadrach ,
Meshach ,
and Abednego ,
ye servants of the most high God ,
come forth ,
and come hither .
Then Shadrach ,
Meshach ,
and Abednego ,
came forth of the midst of the fire .
*
And the princes ,
governors ,
and captains ,
and the king '
s counsellors ,
being gathered together ,
saw these men ,
upon whose bodies the fire had no power ,
nor was an hair of their head singed ,
neither were their coats changed ,
nor the smell of fire had passed on them .
