19 in/on/with then Nebuchadnezzar to fill rage and image face his (to change *Q(K)*) since Shadrach Meshach and Abednego Abednego to answer and to say to/for to heat to/for furnace [the] one seven since that to see to/for to heat him
Then was Nebuchad-nezzar full of rage, and the forme of his visage was changed against Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego: therefore hee charged and commanded that they should heate the fornace at once seuen times more then it was wont to be heat.
20 and to/for man mighty strength that in/on/with strength his to say to/for to bind to/for Shadrach Meshach and Abednego Abednego to/for to cast to/for furnace fire [the] to burn [the]
And hee charged the most valiant men of warre that were in his armie, to binde Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, and to cast them into the hote fierie fornace.
21 in/on/with then man [the] these to bind in/on/with mantle their (legging their *Q(k)*) and helmet their and garment their and to cast to/for midst furnace fire [the] to burn [the]
So these men were bounde in their coates, their hosen, and their clokes, with their other garments, and cast into the middes of the hote fierie fornace.
22 like/as to/for before: because this from that word king [the] be hasty and furnace [the] to heat preeminent man [the] these that to take up to/for Shadrach Meshach and Abednego Abednego to slay they flame [the] that fire [the]
Therefore, because the Kings commandement was straite, that the fornace should be exceeding hote, the flame of the fire slew those men that brought foorth Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego.
23 and man [the] these three their Shadrach Meshach and Abednego Abednego to fall to/for midst furnace fire [the] to burn [the] to bind
And these three men Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego fell downe bound into the middes of the hote fierie fornace.
24 then Nebuchadnezzar king [the] be startled and to stand: rise in/on/with to dismay to answer and to say to/for counselor his not man three to cast to/for midst fire [the] to bind to answer and to say to/for king [the] certain king [the]
Then Nebuchad-nezzar the King was astonied and rose vp in haste, and spake, and saide vnto his counsellers, Did not wee cast three men bound into the middes of the fire? Who answered and said vnto the King, It is true, O King.
25 to answer and to say behold me to see man four to loose to go in/on/with midst fire [the] and harm not there is in/on/with them and appearance his that (fourth [the] *Q(k)*) be like to/for son god
And he answered, and said, Loe, I see foure men loose, walking in the middes of the fire, and they haue no hurt, and the forme of the fourth is like the sonne of God.
26 in/on/with then to approach Nebuchadnezzar to/for door furnace fire [the] to burn [the] to answer and to say Shadrach Meshach and Abednego Abednego servant/slave his that god [the] (Most High [the] *Q(k)*) to go out and to come in/on/with then to go out Shadrach Meshach and Abednego Abednego from midst fire [the]
Then the King Nebuchad-nezzar came neere to the mouth of the hote fierie fornace, and spake and said, Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, the seruants of the hie God goe foorth and come hither: so Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego came foorth of the middes of the fire.
27 and to gather satrap [the] prefect [the] and governor [the] and counselor king [the] to see to/for man [the] these that not to rule fire [the] in/on/with body their and hair head their not to singe and mantle their not to change and smell fire not to pass on/over/away in/on/with them
Then the nobles, princes and dukes, and the Kings counsellers came together to see these men, because the fire had no power ouer their bodies: for not an heare of their head was burnt, neither was their coates changed, nor any smelll of fire came vpon them.
28 to answer Nebuchadnezzar and to say to bless god their that Shadrach Meshach and Abednego Abednego that to send angel his and to rescue to/for servant/slave his that to trust since him and word king [the] to change and to give (body their *Q(K)*) that not to serve and not to do homage to/for all god except to/for god their
Wherefore Nebuchad-nezzar spake and said, Blessed be the God of Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, who hath sent his Angel, and deliuered his seruants, that put their trust in him, and haue changed the Kings commandement, and yeelded their bodies rather then they would serue or worship any god, saue their owne God.
29 and from me to set: make command that all people people and tongue that to say (neglect *Q(K)*) since god their that Shadrach Meshach and Abednego Abednego piece to make and house his dunghill be set like/as to/for before: because that not there is god another that be able to/for to rescue like/as this
Therefore I make a decree, that euery people, nation, and language, which speake any blasphemie against the God of Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, shalbe drawen in pieces, and their houses shall be made a iakes, because there is no god that can deliuer after this sort.
30 in/on/with then king [the] to prosper to/for Shadrach Meshach and Abednego Abednego in/on/with province Babylon
Then the King promoted Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego in the prouince of Babel.
