19 “Therefore, if it pleases the king,(A) let him issue a royal decree and let it be written in the laws of Persia and Media, which cannot be repealed,(B) that Vashti is never again to enter the presence of King Xerxes.

8 At this time some astrologers[a](A) came forward and denounced the Jews. 9 They said to King Nebuchadnezzar, “May the king live forever!(B) 10 Your Majesty has issued a decree(C) that everyone who hears the sound of the horn, flute, zither, lyre, harp, pipe and all kinds of music must fall down and worship the image of gold,(D) 11 and that whoever does not fall down and worship will be thrown into a blazing furnace. 12 But there are some Jews whom you have set over the affairs of the province of Babylon—Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego(E)—who pay no attention(F) to you, Your Majesty. They neither serve your gods nor worship the image of gold you have set up.”(G)
