Then these men have been brought in before the king.Daniel 3:14Nebuchadnezzar hath answered and said to them, ‘Is it a laid plan, O Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego—my gods ye are not serving, and to the golden image that I have raised up ye are not doing obeisance?Daniel 3:15Now, lo, ye are ready, so that at the time that ye hear the voice of the cornet, the flute, the harp, the sackbut, the psaltery, and the symphony, and all kinds of music, ye fall down and do obeisance to the image that I have made!—and lo, ye do no obeisance—in that hour ye are cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace; who is that God who doth deliver you out of my hands?’Daniel 3:16Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego have answered, yea, they are saying to the king Nebuchadnezzar, ‘We have no need concerning this matter to answer thee.Daniel 3:17Lo, it is; our God whom we are serving, is able to deliver us from a burning fiery furnace; and from thy hand, O king, He doth deliver.Daniel 3:18And lo—not! be it known to thee, O king, that thy gods we are not serving, and to the golden image thou hast raised up we do no obeisance.’Daniel 3:19Then Nebuchadnezzar hath been full of fury, and the expression of his face hath been changed concerning Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego; he answered and said to heat the furnace seven times above that which it is seen to be heated;Daniel 3:20and to certain mighty men who are in his force he hath said to bind Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, to cast into the burning fiery furnace.Daniel 3:21Then these men have been bound in their coats, their tunics, and their turbans, and their clothing, and have been cast into the midst of the burning fiery furnace.Daniel 3:22Therefore, because that the word of the king is urgent, and the furnace heated exceedingly, those men who have taken up Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego—killed them hath the spark of the fire.Daniel 3:23And these three men, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, have fallen down in the midst of the burning fiery furnace—bound.Daniel 5:22‘And thou, his son, Belshazzar, hast not humbled thy heart, though all this thou hast known;Daniel 6:1It hath been good before Darius, and he hath established over the kingdom satraps—a hundred and twenty—that they may be throughout the whole kingdom,Daniel 6:2and higher than they three presidents, of whom Daniel is first, that these satraps may give to them an account, and the king have no loss.Daniel 6:3Then this Daniel hath been overseer over the presidents and satraps, because that an excellent spirit is in him, and the king hath thought to establish him over the whole kingdom.Daniel 6:4Then the presidents and satraps have been seeking to find a cause of complaint against Daniel concerning the kingdom, and any cause of complaint and corruption they are not able to find, because that he is faithful, and any error and corruption have not been found in him.Daniel 6:5Then these men are saying, ‘We do not find against this Daniel any cause of complaint, except we have found it against him in the law of his God.’Daniel 6:6Then these presidents and satraps have assembled near the king, and thus they are saying to him: ‘O king Darius, to the ages live!Daniel 6:7Taken counsel have all the presidents of the kingdom, the prefects, and the satraps, the counsellors, and the governors, to establish a royal statute, and to strengthen an interdict, that any who seeketh a petition from any god and man until thirty days, save of thee, O king, is cast into a den of lions.Daniel 6:8Now, O king, thou dost establish the interdict, and sign the writing, that it is not to be changed, as a law of Media and Persia, that doth not pass away.’Daniel 6:9Therefore king Darius hath signed the writing and interdict.Hosea 5:10Princes of Judah have been as those removing a border, On them I do pour out as water My wrath.Hosea 7:3With their wickedness they make glad a king, And with their lies—princes.Hosea 10:7Cut off is Samaria!
