|
|

Andwho is the god who will deliver you out of my hands?

|
3 : 16 Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego answered and said to the king,O Nebuchadnezzar, we have no need to answer you in this matter.

|
|
3 : 22 Because the king's order wasurgent and the furnace overheated, the flame of the fire killed those men who took upShadrach, Meshach, and Abednego.
|
|
3 : 23 And these three men, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, fellbound into the burning fiery furnace.
|
|

|
3 : 28 Nebuchadnezzar answered and said,Blessed be the God ofShadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, whohas sent his angel anddelivered his servants, whotrusted in him, and set asidethe king's command, and yielded up their bodies rather thanserve and worship any god except their own God.
|
|
3 : 29 ThereforeI make a decree: Anypeople, nation, or language that speaks anything against the God ofShadrach, Meshach, and Abednegoshall be torn limb from limb, and their houses laid in ruins, for there is no other god who is able to rescue in this way.
