Then these men have been brought in before the king . ylt @Daniel:3:14 @Nebuchadnezzar hath answered and said to them , 'Is [it ] a laid plan , O Shadrach , Meshach , and Abed-Nego -- my gods ye are not serving , and to the golden image that I have raised up ye are not doing obeisance ? ylt @Daniel:3:15 @Now , lo , ye are ready , so that at the time that ye hear the voice of the cornet , the flute , the harp , the sackbut , the psaltery , and the symphony , and all kinds of music , ye fall down and do obeisance to the image that I have made ! -- and lo , ye do no obeisance -- in that hour ye are cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace ; who is that God who doth deliver you out of my hands ?' ylt @Daniel:3:16 @Shadrach , Meshach , and Abed-Nego have answered , yea , they are saying to the king Nebuchadnezzar , 'We have no need concerning this matter to answer thee . ylt @Daniel:3:17 @Lo , it is ; our God whom we are serving , is able to deliver us from a burning fiery furnace ; and from thy hand , O king , He doth deliver . ylt @Daniel:3:18 @And lo -- not ! be it known to thee , O king , that thy gods we are not serving , and to the golden image thou hast raised up we do no obeisance .' ylt @Daniel:3:19 @Then Nebuchadnezzar hath been full of fury , and the expression of his face hath been changed concerning Shadrach , Meshach , and Abed-Nego ; he answered and said to heat the furnace seven times above that which it is seen to be heated ; ylt @Daniel:3:20 @and to certain mighty men who [are ] in his force he hath said to bind Shadrach , Meshach , and Abed-Nego , to cast into the burning fiery furnace . ylt @Daniel:3:21 @Then these men have been bound in their coats , their tunics , and their turbans , and their clothing , and have been cast into the midst of the burning fiery furnace . ylt @Daniel:3:22 @Therefore , because that the word of the king is urgent , and the furnace heated exceedingly , those men who have taken up Shadrach , Meshach , and Abed-Nego -- killed them hath the spark of the fire . ylt @Daniel:3:23 @And these three men , Shadrach , Meshach , and Abed-Nego , have fallen down in the midst of the burning fiery furnace -- bound . ylt @Daniel:3:24 @Then Nebuchadnezzar the king hath been astonished , and hath risen in haste ; he hath answered and said to his counsellors , 'Have we not cast three men into the midst of the fire -- bound ?' They have answered and are saying to the king , 'Certainly , O king .' ylt @Daniel:3:25 @He answered and hath said , 'Lo , I am seeing four men loose , walking in the midst of the fire , and they have no hurt ; and the appearance of the fourth [is ] like to a son of the gods .' ylt @Daniel:3:26 @Then Nebuchadnezzar hath drawn near to the gate of the burning fiery furnace ; he hath answered and said , 'Shadrach , Meshach , and Abed-Nego , servants of God Most High come forth , yea , come ;' then come forth do Shadrach , Meshach , and Abed-Nego , from the midst of the fire ; ylt @Daniel:3:27 @and gathered together , the satraps , the prefects , and the governors , and the counsellors of the king , are seeing these men , that the fire hath no power over their bodies , and the hair of their head hath not been singed , and their coats have not changed , and the smell of fire hath not passed on them . ylt @Daniel:3:28 @Nebuchadnezzar hath answered and hath said , 'Blessed [is ] the God of Shadrach , Meshach , and Abed-Nego , who hath sent His messenger , and hath delivered His servants who trusted on Him , and the word of the king changed , and gave up their bodies that they might not serve nor do obeisance to any god except to their own God . ylt @Daniel:3:29 @And by me a decree is made , that any people , nation , and language , that doth speak erroneously concerning the God of Shadrach , Meshach , and Abed-Nego , pieces he is made , and its house is made a dunghill , because that there is no other god who is able thus to deliver .' ylt @Daniel:3:30 @Then the king hath caused Shadrach , Meshach , and Abed-Nego , to prosper in the province of Babylon .
