Daniel 3:12

---

← Daniel 3:11	Daniel 3:12 (KJV)	Daniel 3:13 →
And whoso falleth not down and worshippeth, [that] he should be cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace.	There are certain Jews whom thou hast set over the affairs of the province of Babylon, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego; these men, O king, have not regarded thee: they serve not thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up.	Then Nebuchadnezzar in [his] rage and fury commanded to bring Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. Then they brought these men before the king.
