Daniel 3:24-28

English Standard Version

²⁴ Then King Nebuchadnezzar was ^(A)astonished and rose up ^(B)in haste. He declared to his ^(C)counselors, “Did we not cast three men ^(D)bound into the fire?” They answered and said to the king, “True, O king.” ²⁵ He answered and said, “But I see four men unbound, ^(E)walking in the midst of the fire, and they ^(F)are not hurt; and the appearance of the fourth is like ^(G)a son of the gods.”

²⁶ Then Nebuchadnezzar came near to the door of the burning fiery furnace; he declared, ^(H)“Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, servants of the ^(I)Most High God, come out, and come here!” Then ^(J)Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego came out from the fire. ²⁷ And the ^(K)satraps, the prefects, the governors, and ^(L)the king's counselors gathered together and saw that ^(M)the fire had not had any power over the bodies of those men. The hair of their heads was not singed, their ^(N)cloaks were not harmed, and no smell of fire had come upon them. ²⁸ Nebuchadnezzar answered and said, “Blessed be the God of ^(O)Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, who ^(P)has sent his angel and ^(Q)delivered his servants, who ^(R)trusted in him, and set aside^[a] the king's command, and yielded up their bodies rather than ^(S)serve and worship any god except their own God.
