Daniel 3:1-23

Nebuchadnezzar
<05020>
the king
<04430>
made
<05648> (8754)
an image
<06755>
of gold
<01722>_,
whose height
<07314>
[was] threescore
<08361>
cubits
<0521>_,
[and] the breadth
<06613>
thereof six
<08353>
cubits
<0521>_:
he set it up
<06966> (8684)
in the plain
<01236>
of Dura
<01757>_,
in the province
<04083>
of Babylon
<0895>_.
Then Nebuchadnezzar
<05020>
the king
<04430>
sent
<07972> (8754)
to gather together
<03673> (8749)
the princes
<0324>_,
the governors
<05460>_,
and the captains
<06347>_,
the judges
<0148>_,
the treasurers
<01411>_,
the counsellors
<01884>_,
the sheriffs
<08614>_,
and all
<03606>
the rulers
<07984>
of the provinces
<04083>_,
to come
<0858> (8749)
to the dedication
<02597>
of the image
<06755>
which Nebuchadnezzar
<05020>
the king
<04430>
had set up
<06966> (8684)_.
Then
<0116>
the princes
<0324>_,
the governors
<05460>_,
and captains
<06347>_,
the judges
<0148>_,
the treasurers
<01411>_,
the counsellors
<01884>_,
the sheriffs
<08614>_,
and all
<03606>
the rulers
<07984>
of the provinces
<04083>_,
were gathered together
<03673> (8723)
unto the dedication
<02597>
of the image
<06755>
that Nebuchadnezzar
<05020>
the king
<04430>
had set up
<06966> (8684)_;
and they stood
<06966> (8750)
before
<06903>
the image
<06755>
that Nebuchadnezzar
<05020>
had set up
<06966> (8684)_.
Then an herald
<03744>
cried
<07123> (8751)
aloud
<02429>_,
To you it is commanded
<0560> (8750)_,
O people
<05972>_,
nations
<0524>_,
and languages
<03961>_,
{aloud: Chaldee, with might} {it...: Chaldee, they command}
[That] at what time
<05732>
ye hear
<08086> (8748)
the sound
<07032>
of the cornet
<07162>_,
flute
<04953>_,
harp
<07030> (8675) <07030>_,
sackbut
<05443>_,
psaltery
<06460>_,
dulcimer
<05481>_,
and all
<03606>
kinds
<02178>
of musick
<02170>_,
ye fall down
<05308> (8748)
and worship
<05457> (8748)
the golden
<01722>
image
<06755>
that Nebuchadnezzar
<05020>
the king
<04430>
hath set up
<06966> (8684)_:
{dulcimer: or, singing: Chaldee, symphony}
And whoso
<04479>
falleth
<05308> (0)
not
<03809>
down
<05308> (8748)
and worshippeth
<05457> (8748)
shall the same hour
<08160>
be cast
<07412> (8729)
into the midst
<01459>
of a burning
<03345> (8751)
fiery
<05135>
furnace
<0861>_.
Therefore
<06903> <01836>
at that time
<02166>_,
when
<01768>
all
<03606>
the people
<05972>
heard
<08086> (8750)
the sound
<07032>
of the cornet
<07162>_,
flute
<04953>_,
harp
<07030> (8675) <07030>_,
sackbut
<05443>_,
psaltery
<06460>_,
and all
<03606>
kinds
<02178>
of musick
<02170>_,
all
<03606>
the people
<05972>_,
the nations
<0524>_,
and the languages
<03961>_,
fell down
<05308> (8750)
[and] worshipped
<05457> (8750)
the golden
<01722>
image
<06755>
that Nebuchadnezzar
<05020>
the king
<04430>
had set up
<06966> (8684)_.
Wherefore
<06903> <03606>
at that
<01836>
time
<02166>
certain
<01400>
Chaldeans
<03779>
came near
<07127> (8754)_,
and accused
<07170> <0399> (8754)
the Jews
<03062>_.
They spake
<06032> (8754)
and said
<0560> (8750)
to the king
<04430>
Nebuchadnezzar
<05020>_,
O king
<04430>_,
live
<02418> (8747)
for ever
<05957>_.
Thou
<0607>_,
O king
<04430>_,
hast made
<07761> (8754)
a decree
<02942>_,
that every
<03606>
man
<0606>
that shall hear
<08086> (8748)
the sound
<07032>
of the cornet
<07162>_,
flute
<04953>_,
harp
<07030> (8675) <07030>_,
sackbut
<05443>_,
psaltery
<06460>_,
and dulcimer
<05481> (8675) <05481>_,
and all
<03606>
kinds
<02178>
of musick
<02170>_,
shall fall down
<05308> (8748)
and worship
<05457> (8748)
the golden
<01722>
image
<06755>_:
{dulcimer: or, singing: Chaldee, symphony}
And whoso
<04479>
falleth
<05308> (0)
not
<03809>
down
<05308> (8748)
and worshippeth
<05457> (8748)_,
[that] he should be cast
<07412> (8729)
into the midst
<01459>
of a burning
<03345> (8751)
fiery
<05135>
furnace
<0861>_.
There are
<0383>
certain
<01400>
Jews
<03062>
whom
<03487>
thou hast set
<04483> (8745)
over
<05922>
the affairs
<05673>
of the province
<04083>
of Babylon
<0895>_,
Shadrach
<07715>_,
Meshach
<04336>_,
and Abednego
<05665>_;
these
<0479>
men
<01400>_,
O king
<04430>_,
have
<07761> (8754)
not
<03809>
regarded
<02942>
thee
<05922>_:
they serve
<06399> (8750)
not
<03809>
thy gods
<0426>_,
nor
<03809>
worship
<05457> (8750)
the golden
<01722>
image
<06755>
which thou hast set up
<06966> (8684)_.
{have...: Chaldee, have set no regard upon thee}
Then
<0116>
Nebuchadnezzar
<05020>
in [his] rage
<07266>
and fury
<02528>
commanded
<0560> (8754)
to bring
<0858> (8682)
Shadrach
<07715>_,
Meshach
<04336>_,
and Abednego
<05665>_.
Then
<0116>
they brought
<0858> (8717)
these
<0479>
men
<01400>
before
<06925>
the king
<04430>_.
Nebuchadnezzar
<05020>
spake
<06032> (8750)
and said
<0560> (8750)
unto them, [Is it] true
<06656>_,
O Shadrach
<07715>_,
Meshach
<04336>_,
and Abednego
<05665>_,
do not
<03809>
ye
<0383>
serve
<06399> (8750)
my gods
<0426>_,
nor
<03809>
worship
<05457> (8750)
the golden
<01722>
image
<06755>
which I have set
<06966> (8684)
up? {true: or, of purpose}
Now
<03705>
if
<02006>
ye be
<0383>
ready
<06263>
that at what time
<05732>
ye hear
<08086> (8748)
the sound
<07032>
of the cornet
<07162>_,
flute
<04953>_,
harp
<07030> (8675) <07030>_,
sackbut
<05443>_,
psaltery
<06460>_,
and dulcimer
<05481>_,
and all
<03606>
kinds
<02178>
of musick
<02170>_,
ye fall down
<05308> (8748)
and worship
<05457> (8748)
the image
<06755>
which I have made
<05648> (8754)_;
[well]: but if
<02006>
ye worship
<05457> (8748)
not
<03809>_,
ye shall be cast
<07412> (8729)
the same hour
<08160>
into the midst
<01459>
of a burning
<03345> (8751)
fiery
<05135>
furnace
<0861>_;
and who
<04479>
[is] that God
<0426>
that shall deliver
<07804> (8755)
you out of
<04481>
my hands
<03028>_?
{dulcimer: or, singing: Chaldee, symphony}
Shadrach
<07715>_,
Meshach
<04336>_,
and Abednego
<05665>_,
answered
<06032> (8754)
and said
<0560> (8750)
to the king
<04430>_,
O Nebuchadnezzar
<05020>_,
we
<0586>
[are] not
<03809>
careful
<02818> (8750)
to answer
<08421> (8682)
thee in
<05922>
this
<01836>
matter
<06600>_.
If
<02006>
it be [so], our God
<0426>
whom we
<0586>
serve
<06399> (8750)
is
<0383>
able
<03202> (8750)
to deliver
<07804> (8756)
us from
<04481>
the burning
<03345> (8751)
fiery
<05135>
furnace
<0861>_,
and
<04481> (0)
he will deliver
<07804> (8755)
[us] out of
<04481>
thine hand
<03028>_,
O king
<04430>_.
But if
<02006>
not
<03809>_,
be it
<01934> (8748)
known
<03046> (8752)
unto thee, O king
<04430>_,
that we will
<0383>
not
<03809>
serve
<06399> (8750)
thy gods
<0426>_,
nor
<03809>
worship
<05457> (8748)
the golden
<01722>
image
<06755>
which thou hast set up
<06966> (8684)_.
Then
<0116>
was Nebuchadnezzar
<05020>
full
<04391> (8728)
of fury
<02528>_,
and the form
<06755>
of his visage
<0600>
was changed
<08133> (8724)
against
<05922>
Shadrach
<07715>_,
Meshach
<04336>_,
and Abednego
<05665>_:
[therefore] he spake
<06032> (8750)_,
and commanded
<0560> (8750)
that they should heat
<0228> (8749)
the furnace
<0861>
one
<02298>
seven times
<07655>
more
<05922>
than
<01768>
it was wont
<02370> (8752)
to be heated
<0228> (8749)_.
{full: Chaldee, filled}
And he commanded
<0560> (8754)
the most
<02429>
mighty
<01401>
men
<01400>
that [were] in his army
<02429>
to bind
<03729> (8742)
Shadrach
<07715>_,
Meshach
<04336>_,
and Abednego
<05665>_,
[and] to cast
<07412> (8749)
[them] into the burning
<03345> (8751)
fiery
<05135>
furnace
<0861>_.
{most...: Chaldee, mighty of strength}
Then
<0116>
these
<0479>
men
<01400>
were bound
<03729> (8760)
in their coats
<05622>_,
their hosen
<06361> (8675) <06361>_,
and their hats
<03737>_,
and their [other] garments
<03831>_,
and were cast
<07412> (8752)
into the midst
<01459>
of the burning
<03345> (8751)
fiery
<05135>
furnace
<0861>_.
{coats: or, mantles} {hats: or, turbans}
Therefore
<03606> <06903>
because
<04481> <01836>
the king's
<04430>
commandment
<04406>
was urgent
<02685> (8683)_,
and the furnace
<0861>
exceeding
<03493>
hot
<0228> (8752)_,
the flame
<07631>
of the fire
<05135>
slew
<06992> (8745)
those
<0479>
men
<01400> <01994>
that took up
<05267> (8684)
Shadrach
<07715>_,
Meshach
<04336>_,
and Abednego
<05665>_.
{commandment: Chaldee, word} {flame: or, spark}
And these
<0479>
three
<08532>
men
<01400>_,
Shadrach
<07715>_,
Meshach
<04336>_,
and Abednego
<05665>_,
fell down
<05308> (8754)
bound
<03729> (8743)
into the midst
<01459>
of the burning
<03345> (8751)
fiery
<05135>
furnace
<0861>_.
