Then he approached Nebuchadnezzar to [the] door of [the] furnace of fire the burning [he was] replying and [he was] saying O Shadrach Meshach and Abed-nego servants his of God (Most High the *Q(k)*) come out! and come! then [were] coming out Shadrach Meshach and Abed-nego from [the] midst of fire the.
27 Los gobernadores provinciales, los prefectos, los gobernadores locales y los consejeros del rey se reunieron en torno a ellos y vieron que el fuego no les había hecho daño. Sus cabellos no estaban chamuscados, sus ropas no estaban chamuscadas, ¡ni siquiera había olor a humo!

28 Entonces Nabucodonosor dijo: “¡Alabado sea el Dios de Sadrac, Mesac y Abednego! Él envió a su ángel y rescató a sus siervos que confiaban en él. Ellos desobedecieron mi mandato real, arriesgando sus vidas, y se negaron a adorar a otros dioses que no fueran su Dios.
[was] replying Nebuchadnezzar and [he was] saying [be] blessed God their of Shadrach Meshach and Abed-nego who he has sent angel his and he has delivered servants his who they trusted on him and [the] word of king the they violated and they gave (body their *Q(K)*) that not they will pay reverence and not they will pay homage to any god except to own God their.
29 En consecuencia, estoy emitiendo un decreto para que si alguien de cualquier nación o lengua habla irrespetuosamente del Dios de Sadrac, Mesac y Abednego, sea despedazado y sus casas sean destruidas. No hay otro Dios que pueda salvar así”.
And from me it is made a decree that any people nation and language which it will say (negligence *Q(K)*) against God their of Shadrach Meshach and Abed-nego members he will be made and house his a refuse-heap it will be made as to because that not there [is] a god another who he is able to rescue like this.
