Daniel 3:15-17
English Standard Version
15 Now if you are ready when (A)you hear the sound of the horn, pipe, lyre, trigon, harp, bagpipe, and every kind of music, to fall down and worship the image that I have made, well and good.[a] But if you do not worship, (B)you shall immediately be cast into a burning fiery furnace. And (C)who is the god who will deliver you out of my hands?”
16 (D)Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego answered and said to the king, “O Nebuchadnezzar, we have no need to answer you in this matter. 17 If this be so, (E)our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and he will deliver us out of your hand, O king.[b]

Daniel 3:28-29
English Standard Version
28 Nebuchadnezzar answered and said, “Blessed be the God of (A)Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, who (B)has sent his angel and (C)delivered his servants, who (D)trusted in him, and set aside[a] the king's command, and yielded up their bodies rather than (E)serve and worship any god except their own God. 29 Therefore (F)I make a decree: Any (G)people, nation, or language that speaks anything against the God of (H)Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego (I)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.”
