NebuchadnezzarH5020 the kingH4430 madeH5648 an imageH6755 of goldH1722, whose heightH7314 was threescoreH8361 cubitsH521, and the breadthH6613 thereof sixH8353 cubitsH521: he set it upH6966 in the plainH1236 of DuraH1757, in the provinceH4083 of BabylonH895.
Then NebuchadnezzarH5020 the kingH4430 sentH7972 to gather togetherH3673 the princesH324, the governorsH5460, and the captainsH6347, the judgesH148, the treasurersH1411, the counsellorsH1884, the sheriffsH8614, and allH3606 the rulersH7984 of the provincesH4083, to comeH858 to the dedicationH2597 of the imageH6755 which NebuchadnezzarH5020 the kingH4430 had set upH6966.
ThenH116 the princesH324, the governorsH5460, and captainsH6347, the judgesH148, the treasurersH1411, the counsellorsH1884, the sheriffsH8614, and allH3606 the rulersH7984 of the provincesH4083, were gathered togetherH3673 unto the dedicationH2597 of the imageH6755 that NebuchadnezzarH5020 the kingH4430 had set upH6966; and they stoodH6966 beforeH6903 the imageH6755 that NebuchadnezzarH5020 had set upH6966.
Then an heraldH3744 criedH7123 aloudH2429, To you it is commandedH560, O peopleH5972, nationsH524, and languagesH3961, {aloud: Cald. with might} {it…: Cald. they command}
That at what timeH5732 ye hearH8086 the soundH7032 of the cornetH7162, fluteH4953, harpH7030+H7030, sackbutH5443, psalteryH6460, dulcimerH5481, and allH3606 kindsH2178 of musickH2170, ye fall downH5308 and worshipH5457 the goldenH1722 imageH6755 that NebuchadnezzarH5020 the kingH4430 hath set upH6966: {dulcimer: or, singing: Cald. symphony}
And whosoH4479 fallethH5308 notH3809 downH5308 and worshippethH5457 shall the same hourH8160 be castH7412 into the midstH1459 of a burningH3345 fieryH5135 furnaceH861.
ThereforeH6903+H1836 at that timeH2166, whenH1768 allH3606 the peopleH5972 heardH8086 the soundH7032 of the cornetH7162, fluteH4953, harpH7030+H7030, sackbutH5443, psalteryH6460, and allH3606 kindsH2178 of musickH2170, allH3606 the peopleH5972, the nationsH524, and the languagesH3961, fell downH5308 and worshippedH5457 the goldenH1722 imageH6755 that NebuchadnezzarH5020 the kingH4430 had set upH6966.
WhereforeH6903+H3606 at thatH1836 timeH2166 certainH1400 ChaldeansH3779 came nearH7127, and accusedH7170+H399 the JewsH3062.
They spakeH6032 and saidH560 to the kingH4430 NebuchadnezzarH5020, O kingH4430, liveH2418 for everH5957.
ThouH607, O kingH4430, hast madeH7761 a decreeH2942, that everyH3606 manH606 that shall hearH8086 the soundH7032 of the cornetH7162, fluteH4953, harpH7030+H7030, sackbutH5443, psalteryH6460, and dulcimerH5481+H5481, and allH3606 kindsH2178 of musickH2170, shall fall downH5308 and worshipH5457 the goldenH1722 imageH6755:
And whosoH4479 fallethH5308 notH3809 downH5308 and worshippethH5457, that he should be castH7412 into the midstH1459 of a burningH3345 fieryH5135 furnaceH861.
There areH383 certainH1400 JewsH3062 whomH3487 thou hast setH4483 overH5922 the affairsH5673 of the provinceH4083 of BabylonH895, ShadrachH7715, MeshachH4336, and AbednegoH5665; theseH479 menH1400, O kingH4430, haveH7761 notH3809 regardedH2942 theeH5922: they serveH6399 notH3809 thy godsH426, norH3809 worshipH5457 the goldenH1722 imageH6755 which thou hast set upH6966. {have…: Cald. have set no regard upon thee}
ThenH116 NebuchadnezzarH5020 in his rageH7266 and furyH2528 commandedH560 to bringH858 ShadrachH7715, MeshachH4336, and AbednegoH5665. ThenH116 they broughtH858 theseH479 menH1400 beforeH6925 the kingH4430.
NebuchadnezzarH5020 spakeH6032 and saidH560 unto them, Is it trueH6656, O ShadrachH7715, MeshachH4336, and AbednegoH5665, do notH3809 yeH383 serveH6399 my godsH426, norH3809 worshipH5457 the goldenH1722 imageH6755 which I have setH6966 up? {true: or, of purpose}
NowH3705 ifH2006 ye beH383 readyH6263 that at what timeH5732 ye hearH8086 the soundH7032 of the cornetH7162, fluteH4953, harpH7030+H7030, sackbutH5443, psalteryH6460, and dulcimerH5481, and allH3606 kindsH2178 of musickH2170, ye fall downH5308 and worshipH5457 the imageH6755 which I have madeH5648; well: but ifH2006 ye worshipH5457 notH3809, ye shall be castH7412 the same hourH8160 into the midstH1459 of a burningH3345 fieryH5135 furnaceH861; and whoH4479 is that GodH426 that shall deliverH7804 you out ofH4481 my handsH3028?
ShadrachH7715, MeshachH4336, and AbednegoH5665, answeredH6032 and saidH560 to the kingH4430, O NebuchadnezzarH5020, weH586 are notH3809 carefulH2818 to answerH8421 thee inH5922 thisH1836 matterH6600.
IfH2006 it be so, our GodH426 whom weH586 serveH6399 isH383 ableH3202 to deliverH7804 us fromH4481 the burningH3345 fieryH5135 furnaceH861, andH4481 he will deliverH7804 us out ofH4481 thine handH3028, O kingH4430.
But ifH2006 notH3809, be itH1934 knownH3046 unto thee, O kingH4430, that we willH383 notH3809 serveH6399 thy godsH426, norH3809 worshipH5457 the goldenH1722 imageH6755 which thou hast set upH6966.
ThenH116 was NebuchadnezzarH5020 fullH4391 of furyH2528, and the formH6755 of his visageH600 was changedH8133 againstH5922 ShadrachH7715, MeshachH4336, and AbednegoH5665: therefore he spakeH6032, and commandedH560 that they should heatH228 the furnaceH861 oneH2298 seven timesH7655 moreH5922 thanH1768 it was wontH2370 to be heatedH228. {full: Cald. filled}
And he commandedH560 the mostH2429 mightyH1401 menH1400 that were in his armyH2429 to bindH3729 ShadrachH7715, MeshachH4336, and AbednegoH5665, and to castH7412 them into the burningH3345 fieryH5135 furnaceH861. {most…: Cald. mighty of strength}
ThenH116 theseH479 menH1400 were boundH3729 in their coatsH5622, their hosenH6361+H6361, and their hatsH3737, and their other garmentsH3831, and were castH7412 into the midstH1459 of the burningH3345 fieryH5135 furnaceH861. {coats: or, mantles} {hats: or, turbans}
ThereforeH3606+H6903 becauseH4481+H1836 the king'sH4430 commandmentH4406 was urgentH2685, and the furnaceH861 exceedingH3493 hotH228, the flameH7631 of the fireH5135 slewH6992 thoseH479 menH1400+H1994 that took upH5267 ShadrachH7715, MeshachH4336, and AbednegoH5665. {commandment: Cald. word} {flame: or, spark}
And theseH479 threeH8532 menH1400, ShadrachH7715, MeshachH4336, and AbednegoH5665, fell downH5308 boundH3729 into the midstH1459 of the burningH3345 fieryH5135 furnaceH861.
ThenH116 NebuchadnezzarH5020 the kingH4430 was astoniedH8429, and rose upH6966 in hasteH927, and spakeH6032, and saidH560 unto his counsellorsH1907, Did notH3809 we castH7412 threeH8532 menH1400 boundH3729 into the midstH1459 of the fireH5135? They answeredH6032 and saidH560 unto the kingH4430, TrueH3330, O kingH4430. {counsellors: or, governors}
He answeredH6032 and saidH560, LoH1888, IH576 seeH2370 fourH703 menH1400 looseH8271, walkingH1981 in the midstH1459 of the fireH5135, and they haveH383 noH3809 hurtH2257; and the formH7299 of the fourthH7244 is likeH1821 the SonH1247 of GodH426. {they…: Cald. there is no hurt in them}
ThenH116 NebuchadnezzarH5020 came nearH7127 to the mouthH8651 of the burningH3345 fieryH5135 furnaceH861, and spakeH6032, and saidH560, ShadrachH7715, MeshachH4336, and AbednegoH5665, ye servantsH5649 of the most highH5943 GodH426, come forthH5312, and comeH858 hither. ThenH116 ShadrachH7715, MeshachH4336, and AbednegoH5665, came forthH5312 ofH4481 the midstH1459 of the fireH5135. {mouth: Cald. door}
And the princesH324, governorsH5460, and captainsH6347, and the king'sH4430 counsellorsH1907, being gathered togetherH3673, sawH2370 theseH479 menH1400, upon whose bodiesH1655 the fireH5135 had noH3809 powerH7981, norH3809 was an hairH8177 of their headH7217 singedH2761, neitherH3809 were their coatsH5622 changedH8133, norH3809 the smellH7382 of fireH5135 had passedH5709 on them.
Then NebuchadnezzarH5020 spakeH6032, and saidH560, BlessedH1289 be the GodH426 of ShadrachH7715, MeshachH4336, and AbednegoH5665, who hath sentH7972 his angelH4398, and deliveredH7804 his servantsH5649 that trustedH7365 in himH5922, and have changedH8133 the king'sH4430 wordH4406, and yieldedH3052 their bodiesH1655, that they might notH3809 serveH6399 norH3809 worshipH5457 anyH3606 godH426, exceptH3861 their own GodH426.
Therefore IH4481 makeH7761 a decreeH2942, That everyH3606 peopleH5972, nationH524, and languageH3961, which speakH560 any thing amissH7960+H7955 againstH5922 the GodH426 of ShadrachH7715, MeshachH4336, and AbednegoH5665, shall be cutH5648 in piecesH1917, and their housesH1005 shall be madeH7739 a dunghillH5122: becauseH6903+H3606 there isH383 noH3809 otherH321 GodH426 that canH3202 deliverH5338 after thisH1836 sort. {I make…: Cald. a decree is made by me} {any…: Cald. error} {cut…: Cald. made pieces}
ThenH116 the kingH4430 promotedH6744 ShadrachH7715, MeshachH4336, and AbednegoH5665, in the provinceH4083 of BabylonH895. {promoted: Cald. made to prosper}

Thou shalt not bow downH7812 thyself to them, nor serveH5647 them: for I the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 am a jealousH7067 GodH410, visitingH6485 the iniquityH5771 of the fathersH1 upon the childrenH1121 unto the thirdH8029 and fourthH7256 generation of them that hateH8130 me;
The wickedH7563 fleeH5127 when no man pursuethH7291: but the righteousH6662 are boldH982 as a lionH3715.

And forgettestH7911 the LORDH3068 thy makerH6213, that hath stretched forthH5186 the heavensH8064, and laid the foundationsH3245 of the earthH776; and hast fearedH6342 continuallyH8548 every dayH3117 becauseH6440 of the furyH2534 of the oppressorH6693, as ifH834 he were readyH3559 to destroyH7843? and where is the furyH2534 of the oppressorH6693? {were…: or, made himself ready}
AndG2532 fearG5399+G575 notG3361 them whichG3588 killG615 the bodyG4983, butG1161 areG1410 notG3361 ableG1410 to killG615 the soulG5590: butG1161 ratherG3123 fearG5399 him whichG3588 is ableG1410 to destroyG622 bothG2532 soulG5590 andG2532 bodyG4983 inG1722 hellG1067.
WhosoeverG3956+G3748 thereforeG3767 shall confessG3670+G1722 meG1698 beforeG1715 menG444+G1722, himG846 will I confessG3670 alsoG2504 beforeG1715 myG3450 FatherG3962 whichG3588 is inG1722 heavenG3772.
ButG1161 whosoeverG3748 shallG302 denyG720 meG3165 beforeG1715 menG444, himG846 will I alsoG2504 denyG720 beforeG1715 myG3450 FatherG3962 whichG3588 is inG1722 heavenG3772.

He answeredG611 and saidG2036 unto themG846, When it isG1096 eveningG3798, ye sayG3004, It will be fair weatherG2105: forG1063 the skyG3772 is redG4449.
ThereforeG473+G3739 whatsoeverG3745 ye have spokenG2036 inG1722 darknessG4653 shall be heardG191 inG1722 the lightG5457; andG2532 that whichG3739 ye have spokenG2980 inG4314 the earG3775 inG1722 closetsG5009 shall be proclaimedG2784 uponG1909 the housetopsG1430.
AndG1161 I sayG3004 unto youG5213 myG3450 friendsG5384, BeG5399 notG3361 afraidG5399 of themG575 that killG615 the bodyG4983, andG2532 afterG3326 thatG5023 haveG2192 noG3361+G5100 moreG4055 that they can doG4160.
ButG1161 I will forewarnG5263 youG5213 whomG5101 ye shall fearG5399: FearG5399 him, which afterG3326 he hath killedG615 hathG2192 powerG1849 to castG1685 intoG1519 hellG1067; yeaG3483, I sayG3004 unto youG5213, FearG5399 himG5126.
AreG4453 notG3780 fiveG4002 sparrowsG4765 soldG4453 for twoG1417 farthingsG787, andG2532 notG3756 oneG1520 ofG1537 themG846 isG2076 forgottenG1950 beforeG1799 GodG2316?
ButG235 even the veryG2532 hairsG2359 of yourG5216 headG2776 areG705 allG3956 numberedG705. FearG5399 notG3361 thereforeG3767: ye are of more valueG1308 than manyG4183 sparrowsG4765.
AlsoG1161 I sayG3004 unto youG5213, WhosoeverG3956+G3739+G302 shall confessG3670+G1722 meG1698 beforeG1715 menG444+G1722, himG846 shallG3670 the SonG5207 of manG444 alsoG2532 confessG3670 beforeG1715 the angelsG32 of GodG2316:
ButG1161 he that deniethG720 meG3165 beforeG1799 menG444 shall be deniedG533 beforeG1799 the angelsG32 of GodG2316.
Be itG2077 knownG1110 unto youG5213 allG3956, andG2532 to allG3956 the peopleG2992 of IsraelG2474, thatG3754 byG1722 the nameG3686 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547 of NazarethG3480, whomG3739 yeG5210 crucifiedG4717, whomG3739 GodG2316 raisedG1453 fromG1537 the deadG3498, even byG1722 himG5129 dothG3936 this manG3778 stand hereG3936 beforeG1799 youG5216 wholeG5199.
ThisG3778 isG2076 the stoneG3037 whichG3588 was set at noughtG1848 ofG5259 youG5216 buildersG3618, whichG3588 is becomeG1096 the headG2776 ofG1519 the cornerG1137.
NeitherG2532+G3756 is thereG2076 salvationG4991 inG1722 anyG3762 otherG243: forG1063 there isG2076 noneG3777 otherG2087 nameG3686 underG5259 heavenG3772 givenG1325 amongG1722 menG444, wherebyG1722+G3739 weG2248 mustG1163 be savedG4982.
NowG1161 when they sawG2334 the boldnessG3954 of PeterG4074 andG2532 JohnG2491, andG2532 perceivedG2638 thatG3754 they wereG1526 unlearnedG62 andG2532 ignorantG2399 menG444, they marvelledG2296; andG5037 they took knowledgeG1921 of themG846, thatG3754 they had beenG2258 withG4862 JesusG2424.
ButG1161 PeterG4074 andG2532 JohnG2491 answeredG611 and saidG2036 untoG4314 themG846, WhetherG1487 it beG2076 rightG1342 in the sightG1799 of GodG2316 to hearkenG191 unto youG5216 more thanG3123+G2228 unto GodG2316, judge yeG2919.
ThenG1161 PeterG4074 andG2532 the other apostlesG652 answeredG611 and saidG2036, We oughtG1163 to obeyG3980 GodG2316 ratherG3123 thanG2228 menG444.
The GodG2316 of ourG2257 fathersG3962 raised upG1453 JesusG2424, whomG3739 yeG5210 slewG1315 and hangedG2910 onG1909 a treeG3586.
HimG5126 hath GodG2316 exaltedG5312 with hisG846 right handG1188 to be a PrinceG747 andG2532 a SaviourG4990, for to giveG1325 repentanceG3341 to IsraelG2474, andG2532 forgivenessG859 of sinsG266.
AndG2532 weG2249 areG2070 hisG846 witnessesG3144 of theseG5130 thingsG4487; andG2532 so is alsoG1161 the HolyG40 GhostG4151, whomG3739 GodG2316 hath givenG1325 to them that obeyG3980 himG846.
FearG5399 noneG3367 of those things whichG3739 thou shaltG3195 sufferG3958: beholdG2400, the devilG1228 shallG3195 castG906 some ofG1537 youG5216 intoG1519 prisonG5438, thatG2443 ye may be triedG3985; andG2532 ye shall haveG2192 tribulationG2347 tenG1176 daysG2250: be thouG1096 faithfulG4103 untoG891 deathG2288, andG2532 I will giveG1325 theeG4671 a crownG4735 of lifeG2222.
