And to men mighty men of power who [were] in army his he said to bind Shadrach Meshach and Abed-nego to throw to [the] furnace of fire the burning.

Then men the these they were bound in mantles their (trousers their *Q(k)*) and caps their and clothes their and they were thrown to [the] midst of [the] furnace of fire the burning.
22 Derfor, eftersom Kongens Ord var strengt, og Ovnen var hedet overmaade, dræbte Ildens Lue de Mænd, som havde bragt Sadrak, Mesak og Abed-Nego op.
As to because this from that [the] word of king the being harsh and furnace the [was] heated exceedingly men the these who they took up Shadrach Meshach and Abed-nego it killed them flame the of fire the.
23 Men disse tre Mænd, Sadrak, Mesak og Abed-Nego, faldt bundne midt i den brændende Ilds Ovn.

24 Da forfærdedes Nebukadnezar og stod hastelig op; han svarede og sagde til sine Raadsherrer: Lode vi ikke kaste tre Mænd bundne midt i Ilden? De svarede og sagde til Kongen: Visselig, o Konge!
Then Nebuchadnezzar king the he was alarmed and he arose in haste [he was] replying and [he was] saying to counselors his ¿ not men three did we throw to [the] midst of fire the bound [they were] replying and [they were] saying to king the certain king O.
25 Han svarede og sagde: Se, jeg ser fire Mænd, som gaa løse midt i Ilden, og der er intet beskadiget paa dem; og den fjerdes Udseende er ligesom en Gudesøns.
[he was] replying And [he was] saying look! I [am] seeing men four loosed [they are] walking in [the] midst of fire the and hurt not there [is] on them and appearance his of (fourth the *Q(k)*) [is] like a son of [the] gods.
26 Da traadte Nebukadnezar frem for Mundingen af den brændende Ilds Ovn; han svarede og sagde: Sadrak, Mesak og Abed-Nego, I den højeste Guds Tjenere! gaar ud og kommer hid; da gik Sadrak, Mesak og Abed-Nego ud midt af Ilden.

27 Og Statholderne, Befalingsmændene og Landshøvdingerne og Kongens Raadsherrer samledes; de saa disse Mænd, at Ilden ingen Magt havde haft over deres Legemer, og at Haaret paa deres Hoveder ikke var svedet og deres Undertøj ikke forandret og at Lugt af Ild ikke var gaaet over dem.
And [were] gathered satraps the prefects the and governors the and [the] counselors of king the [they were] seeing men the these that not it had had power fire the over body their and [the] hair of head their not it was singed and mantles their not they were changed and [the] smell of fire not it had touched on them.
28 Og Nebukadnezar svarede og sagde: Lovet være Sadraks, Mesaks og Abed-Negos Gud! som sendte sin Engel og reddede sine Tjenere, som forlode sig paa ham; og de handlede imod Kongens Ord og hengave deres Legemer, fordi de ikke vilde dyrke eller tilbede nogen Gud, uden deres Gud.

29 Og der er givet Befaling af mig, at den af ethvert Folk, Stamme og Tungemaal, som i Tale forser sig imod Sadraks, Mesaks og Abed-Negos Gud, skal hugges i Stykker og hans Hus gøres til en Møgdynge, fordi der er ingen anden Gud, der saaledes kan frelse.
