Daniel 3: 14-20, 91-92, 95

3:14 In kralj Nebukadnezar jih je ogovoril in rekel, "Ali je res, Shadrach, Meshach, in Abednega, da ne častiš mojih bogov, niti ne obožujejo zlatega kipa, ki sem jih nastavil?
3:15 Zato, če ste zdaj pripravljeni, kadarkoli slišite zvok trobente, cev, lutnja, harfe in psalterija, in o simfoniji in vseh vrstah glasbe, pokleknite in obožujte kip, ki sem ga naredil. Če pa ne boste oboževali, v isti uri boste vrženi v peč gorečega ognja. In kdo je Bog, ki te bo rešil iz moje roke?”
3:16 Shadrach, Meshach, in Abednego je odgovoril in rekel kralju Nebukadnezarju, »Ni prav, da vas v tej zadevi ubogamo.
3:17 Kajti glej, naš Bog, ki ga častimo, nas lahko reši iz pečice gorečega ognja in nas osvobodi iz tvojih rok, o kralj.
3:18 Pa tudi če ne bo, naj ti bo znano, o kralj, da ne bomo častili vaših bogov, niti ne obožujejo zlatega kipa, ki si jih dvignil.«
3:19 Tedaj je bil Nebukadnezar poln besa in njegov obraz se je spremenil proti Šadrahu, Meshach, in Abednega, in ukazal je, naj se peč segreje na sedemkratnik običajnega ognja.
3:20 And he ordered the strongest men of his army to bind the feet of Shadrach, Meshach, in Abednega, and to cast them into the furnace of burning fire.
3:91 Then king Nebuchadnezzar was astonished, and he quickly got up and said to his nobles: “Did we not cast three men shackled into the midst of the fire?” Answering the king, they said, “True, O king.”
3:92 He answered and said, »Glej, I see four men unbound and walking in the midst of the fire, and no harm is in them, and the appearance of the fourth is like a son of God.”
3:95 Potem Nebukadnezar, bursting out, rekel, “Blessed is their God, the God of Shadrach, Meshach, in Abednega, who sent his angel and rescued his servants who believed in him. And they altered the verdict of the king, and they delivered up their bodies, so that they would not serve or adore any god except their God.
