Daniel:3:5-15
Seeker Overlay ON
*
That at what time ye hear the sound of the cornet ,
flute ,
harp ,
sackbut ,
psaltery ,
dulcimer ,
and all kinds of musick ,
ye fall down and worship the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king hath set up :
*
And whoso falleth not down and worshippeth shall the same hour be cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace .
*
Therefore at that time ,
when all the people heard the sound of the cornet ,
flute ,
harp ,
sackbut ,
psaltery ,
and all kinds of musick ,
all the people ,
the nations ,
and the languages ,
fell down and worshipped the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up .
*
Wherefore at that time certain Chaldeans came near ,
and accused the Jews .
*
They spake and said to the king Nebuchadnezzar ,
O king ,
live for ever .
*
Thou ,
O king ,
hast made a decree ,
that every man that shall hear the sound of the cornet ,
flute ,
harp ,
sackbut ,
psaltery ,
and dulcimer ,
and all kinds of musick ,
shall fall down and worship the golden image :
*
And whoso falleth not down and worshippeth ,
that he should be cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace .
*
There are certain Jews whom thou hast set over the affairs of the province of Babylon ,
Shadrach ,
Meshach ,
and Abednego ;
these men ,
O king ,
have not regarded thee :
they serve not thy gods ,
nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up .
*
Then Nebuchadnezzar in his rage and fury commanded to bring Shadrach ,
Meshach ,
and Abednego .
Then they brought these men before the king .
*
Nebuchadnezzar spake and said unto them ,
Is it true ,
O Shadrach ,
Meshach ,
and Abednego ,
do not ye serve my gods ,
nor worship the golden image which I have set up ?
*
Now if ye be ready that at what time ye hear the sound of the cornet ,
flute ,
harp ,
sackbut ,
psaltery ,
and dulcimer ,
and all kinds of musick ,
ye fall down and worship the image which I have made ;
well :
but if ye worship not ,
ye shall be cast the same hour into the midst of a burning fiery furnace ;
and who is that God that shall deliver you out of my hands ?
