Daniel 3:7-12

English Standard Version

⁷ Therefore, as soon as all the peoples heard the sound of the horn, pipe, lyre, trigon, harp, bagpipe, and every kind of music, all ^(A)the peoples, nations, and languages fell down and worshiped the golden image that King Nebuchadnezzar had set up.

The Fiery Furnace

⁸ Therefore at that time certain ^(B)Chaldeans ^(C)came forward and maliciously accused the Jews. ⁹ They declared^[a] to King Nebuchadnezzar, “O king, live forever! ¹⁰ You, O king, ^(D)have made a decree, that every man who ^(E)hears the sound of the horn, pipe, lyre, trigon, harp, bagpipe, and every kind of music, ^(F)shall fall down and worship the golden image. ¹¹ And whoever does not fall down and worship ^(G)shall be cast into a burning fiery furnace. ¹² There are certain Jews whom you have ^(H)appointed over the affairs of ^(I)the province of Babylon: ^(J)Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. These men, O king, ^(K)pay no attention to you; they do not serve your gods or worship the golden image that you have set up.”
