Daniel 3:25-30

English Standard Version

²⁵ He answered and said, “But I see four men unbound, ^(A)walking in the midst of the fire, and they ^(B)are not hurt; and the appearance of the fourth is like ^(C)a son of the gods.”

²⁶ Then Nebuchadnezzar came near to the door of the burning fiery furnace; he declared, ^(D)“Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, servants of the ^(E)Most High God, come out, and come here!” Then ^(F)Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego came out from the fire. ²⁷ And the ^(G)satraps, the prefects, the governors, and ^(H)the king's counselors gathered together and saw that ^(I)the fire had not had any power over the bodies of those men. The hair of their heads was not singed, their ^(J)cloaks were not harmed, and no smell of fire had come upon them. ²⁸ Nebuchadnezzar answered and said, “Blessed be the God of ^(K)Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, who ^(L)has sent his angel and ^(M)delivered his servants, who ^(N)trusted in him, and set aside^[a] the king's command, and yielded up their bodies rather than ^(O)serve and worship any god except their own God. ²⁹ Therefore ^(P)I make a decree: Any ^(Q)people, nation, or language that speaks anything against the God of ^(R)Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego ^(S)shall be torn limb from limb, and their houses laid in ruins, for there is no other god who is able to rescue in this way.” ³⁰ Then the king promoted ^(T)Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego in ^(U)the province of Babylon.
