3:8 Daniyel’s three friends get tattled on

8 But some Chaldean astrologers went to the king to make trouble for the Yehudim (Jews). 9 They reported to King Nevukadnetsar (Nebuchadnezzar), “Long live the king. 10 Oh king, you’ve made a decree that every man who hears the sound of the musical instruments, must bow down and worship the gold statue, 11 but anyone who doesn’t bow and worship will be thrown into a fiery furnace. 12 Now, there are certain Yehudim who you’ve appointed over the administration of the province of Bavel (Babylon): Shadrak, Meyshak, and Aved-Nego. These men, your majesty, don’t take any notice of you: they don’t serve your gods, or worship the gold statue that you’ve set up.”

13 Then Nevukadnetsar in a furious rage commanded that Shadrak, Meyshak, and Aved-Nego be arrested. Then they were brought to the king 14 who questioned them, “Shadrak, Meyshak, and Aved-Nego, is it true that you won’t serve my gods or worship the gold statue that I set up? 15 Now if you’re ready, as soon as you hear the musical instruments of music, if you all bow down and worship the statue I erected, everything will be okay. But if you don’t, you’ll immediately be thrown into a blazing hot furnace. Then what god could rescue you from my punishment?”

16 “Oh Nevukadnetsar,” the three of them answered the king, “we don’t need to answer that last question. 17 If that’s what happens to us, the god that we serve is able to rescue us from the blazing fire and from your punishment. He will save us, your majesty. 18 But just so it’s clear your majesty, even if he doesn’t, we won’t serve your gods or worship that gold statue.”
