2 Then Nebuchadnezzar <5020 N@buwkadnetstsar > the king
<4430
melek > sent <7972 sh@lach > to gather <3673 kanash

the princes <0324 >achashdarpan >, the governors <

d@thabar >,
the sheriffs <8614 tiphtay >, and all <3606 kol >
the rulers
<7984 shiltown > of the provinces <4082 m@diynah >,
to come

<6755 tselem > which <1768 diy > Nebuchadnezzar <
5020
N@buwkadnetstsar > the king <4430 melek > had set <
6966 quwm >
up.
3 Then <0116 >edayin > the princes <0324 >
achashdarpan >, the
governors <5461 cagan >, and captains <6347 pechah >,
the judges
<0148 >adargazer >, the treasurers <1411 g@dabar >,
the

all <3606 kol > the rulers <7984 shiltown > of the
provinces
<4082 m@diynah >, were gathered <3673 kanash >
together unto the
dedication <2597 chanukka> > of the image <6755
tselem > that
Nebuchadnezzar <5020 N@buwkadnetstsar > the king <4430
melek >
had set <6966 quwm > up; and they stood <6966 quwm >
before
<6903 q@bel > the image <6755 tselem > that
Nebuchadnezzar <5020
N@buwkadnetstsar > had set <6966 quwm > up.
4 Then an herald <3744 karowz > cried <7123 q@ra>
> aloud <2429
chayil >, To you it is commanded <0560 >amar >, O
people <5972
<am >, nations <0524 >ummah >, and languages <

5 [That] at what <1768 diy > time <5732 <iddan >
ye hear <8086
sh@ma< > the sound <7032 qal > of the cornet <7162

sackbut <5443

cuwmpown@yah >, and all <3606 kol > kinds <2177 zan

Nebuchadnezzar <5020 N@buwkadnetstsar > the king <4430
melek >
hath set <6966 quwm > up:
6 And whoso falleth <5308 n@phal > not down and
worshippeth
<5457 c@gid > shall the same hour <8160 sha<ah >
be cast <7412
r@mah > into the midst <1459 gav > of a burning <3345
y@qad >
fiery <5135 nuwr > furnace <0861 >attuwn >.
7 Therefore at that time <2166 z@man >, when <1768 diy

<3606 kol > the people <5972 <am > heard <8086
sh@ma< > the
sound <7032 qal > of the cornet <7162 qeren >, flute
<4953
mashrowqiy >, harp <7030 qiytharoc >, sackbut <5443
cabb@ka> >,
psaltery <6460 p@canteriyn >, and all <3606 kol >
kinds <2177

people <5972
<am >, the nations <0524 >ummah >, and the
languages <3961
lishshan >, fell <5308 n@phal > down [and] worshipped
<5457
c@gid > the golden <1722 d@hab > image <6755 tselem

Nebuchadnezzar <5020 N@buwkadnetstsar > the king <4430
melek >
had set <6966 quwm > up.
8. Wherefore at that time <2166 z@man > certain <1400
g@bar >
Chaldeans <3779 Kasday > came <7127 q@reb > near <
7127 q@reb >,
and accused <7170 q@rats > the Jews <3064 Y@huwdiy >.
9 They spake <6032 <anah > and said <0560 >amar

<4430 melek > Nebuchadnezzar <5020 N@buwkadnetstsar >,
O king
<4430 melek >, live <2418 chaya> > for ever <
5957 <alam >.
10 Thou, O king <4430 melek >, hast made <7761 suwm >
a decree
<2942 t@<em >, that every <3606 kol > man <0606
>enash > that
shall hear <8086 sh@ma< > the sound <7032 qal > of
the cornet
<7162 qeren >, flute <4953 mashrowqiy >, harp <
7030 qiytharoc >,
sackbut <5443 cabb@ka> >, psaltery <6460 p@canteriyn

dulcimer <5481 cuwmpown@yah >, and all <3606 kol >
kinds <2177
zan > of musick <2170 z@mar >, shall fall <5308
n@phal > down
and worship <5457 c@gid > the golden <1722 d@hab >
image <6755
tselem >:
11 And whoso falleth <5308 n@phal > not down and
worshippeth
<5457 c@gid >, [that] he should be cast <7412 r@mah >
into the
midst <1459 gav > of a burning <3345 y@qad > fiery
<5135 nuwr >
furnace <0861 >attuwn >.
12 There are certain <1400 g@bar > Jews <3064 Y@huwdiy
> whom
<3487 yath > thou hast set <4483 m@na> > over <
5921 <al > the
affairs <5673 <abiydah > of the province <4083
m@diynah > of
Babylon <0895 Babel >, Shadrach <7715 Shadrak >,
Meshach <4336
Meyshak >, and Abednego <5665 <Abed N@gow> >;
these <0479 >illek
> men <1400 g@bar >, O king <4430 melek >, have
not regarded
thee: they serve <6399 p@lach > not thy gods <0426 >
elahh >, nor
<3809 la> > worship <5457 c@gid > the golden <
1722 d@hab > image
<6755 tselem > which <1768 diy > thou hast set <
6966 quwm > up.
13 Then <0116 >edayin > Nebuchadnezzar <5020
N@buwkadnetstsar >
in [his] rage <7266 r@gaz > and fury <2528 chema> >
commanded
<0560 >amar > to bring <0858 >athah > Shadrach
<7715 Shadrak >,
Meshach <4336 Meyshak >, and Abednego <5665 <Abed
N@gow> >. Then
<0116 >edayin > they brought <0858 >athah >
these <0479 >illek >
men <1400 g@bar > before <6925 qodam > the king <
4430 melek >.
14 Nebuchadnezzar <5020 N@buwkadnetstsar > spake <6032
<anah >
and said <0560 >amar > unto them, [Is it] true <6656
ts@da> >, O
Shadrach <7715 Shadrak >, Meshach <4336 Meyshak >,
and Abednego
<5665 <Abed N@gow> >, do not ye serve <6399 p@lach
> my gods
<0426 >elahh >, nor <3809 la> > worship <
5457 c@gid > the golden
<1722 d@hab > image <6755 tselem > which <1768 diy
> I have set
<6966 quwm > up?
15 Now <3705 k@<an > if <2006 hen > ye be ready
<6263 <athiyd >
that at what <1768 diy > time <5732 <iddan > ye
hear <8086
sh@ma< > the sound <7032 qal > of the cornet <7162
qeren >,
flute <4953 mashrowqiy >, harp <7030 qiytharoc >,
sackbut <5443
cabb@ka> >, psaltery <6460 p@canteriyn >, and
dulcimer <5481
cuwmpown@yah >, and all <3606 kol > kinds <2177 zan
> of musick
<2170 z@mar >, ye fall <5308 n@phal > down and
worship <5457
c@gid > the image <6755 tselem > which <1768 diy >
I have made
<5648 <abad >; [well]: but if <2006 hen > ye
worship <5457 c@gid
> not, ye shall be cast <7412 r@mah > the same hour <
8160 sha<ah
> into the midst <1459 gav > of a burning <3345 y@qad

<5135 nuwr > furnace <0861 >attuwn >; and who <
4479 man > [is]
that God <0426 >elahh > that shall deliver <7804
sh@zab > you
out of my hands <3028 yad >?
16 Shadrach <7715 Shadrak >, Meshach <4336 Meyshak >,
and
Abednego <5665 <Abed N@gow> >, answered <6032 <
anah > and said
<0560 >amar > to the king <4430 melek >, O
Nebuchadnezzar <5020
N@buwkadnetstsar >, we [are] not careful <2818 chashach >
to
answer <8421 tuwb > thee in this <1836 den > matter
<6600
pithgam >.
17 If <2006 hen > it be [so], our God <0426 >elahh
> whom <1768
diy > we serve <6399 p@lach > is able <3202 y@kel >
to deliver
<7804 sh@zab > us from the burning <3345 y@qad >
fiery <5135
nuwr > furnace <0861 >attuwn >, and he will deliver
<7804 sh@zab
> [us] out of thine hand <3028 yad >, O king <4430
melek >.
18 But if not, be it known <3046 y@da< > unto thee, O
king
<4430 melek >, that we will not serve <6399 p@lach >
thy gods
<0426 >elahh >, nor <3809 la> > worship <
5457 c@gid > the golden
<1722 d@hab > image <6755 tselem > which <1768 diy
> thou hast
set <6966 quwm > up.
19. Then <0116 >edayin > was Nebuchadnezzar <5020
N@buwkadnetstsar > full <4391 m@la> > of fury <
2528 chema> >,
and the form <6755 tselem > of his visage <0600 >
anaph > was
changed <8133 sh@na> > against <5922 <al >
Shadrach <7715
Shadrak >, Meshach <4336 Meyshak >, and Abednego <
5665 <Abed
N@gow> >: [therefore] he spake <6032 <anah >, and
commanded
<0560 >amar > that they should heat <0228 >aza>
> the furnace
<0861 >attuwn > one <2298 chad > seven <7655
shib<ah > times
more <5922 <al > than <1768 diy > it was wont <
2370 chaza> > to
be heated <0228 >aza> >.
20 And he commanded <0560 >amar > the most <2429
chayil >
mighty <1401 gibbar > men <1400 g@bar > that [were]
in his army
<2429 chayil > to bind <3729 k@phath > Shadrach <
7715 Shadrak >,
Meshach <4336 Meyshak >, and Abednego <5665 <Abed
N@gow> >,
[and] to cast <7412 r@mah > [them] into the burning <
3345 y@qad
> fiery <5135 nuwr > furnace <0861 >attuwn >.
21 Then <0116 >edayin > these <0479 >illek >
men <1400 g@bar >
were bound <3729 k@phath > in their coats <5622 carbal
>, their
hosen <6361 pattiysh >, and their hats <3737 karb@la<
>, and
their [other] garments <3831 l@buwsh >, and were cast <
7412
r@mah > into the midst <1459 gav > of the burning <
3345 y@qad >
fiery <5135 nuwr > furnace <0861 >attuwn >.
22 Therefore because the king's <4430 melek > commandment
<4406
millah > was urgent <2685 chatsaph >, and the furnace
<0861
>attuwn > exceeding <2493 chelem > hot <0228 >
aza> >, the flame
<7631 s@biyb > of the fire <5135 nuwr > slew <6992
q@tal > those
<0479 >illek > men <1400 g@bar > that took <
5267 n@caq > up
Shadrach <7715 Shadrak >, Meshach <4336 Meyshak >,
and Abednego
<5665 <Abed N@gow> >.
23 And these <0479 >illek > three <8532 t@lath >
men <1400
g@bar >, Shadrach <7715 Shadrak >, Meshach <4336
Meyshak >, and
Abednego <5665 <Abed N@gow> >, fell <5308 n@phal
> down bound
<3729 k@phath > into the midst <1459 gav > of the
burning <3345
y@qad > fiery <5135 nuwr > furnace <0861 >attuwn
>.
24 Then <0116 >edayin > Nebuchadnezzar <5020
N@buwkadnetstsar >
the king <4430 melek > was astonied <8429 t@vahh >,
and rose
<6965 quwm > up in haste <0927 b@hal >, [and] spake
<6032 <anah
>, and said <0560 >amar > unto his counsellors <
1907 haddabar >,
Did not we cast <7412 r@mah > three <8532 t@lath >
men <1400
g@bar > bound <3729 k@phath > into the midst <1459
gav > of the
fire <5135 nuwr >? They answered <6032 <anah > and
said <0560
>amar > unto the king <4430 melek >, True <3330
yatstsiyb >, O
king <4430 melek >.
25 He answered <6032 <anah > and said <0560 >amar
>, Lo <1888
he> >, I see <2370 chaza> > four <0703 >
arba< > men <1400 g@bar

in the midst <1459
