Bible. Daniel
and the dream is certain, and the interpretation of it sure.
002:046 Then the king Nebuchadnezzar fell on his face, and worshiped Daniel,
and commanded that they should offer an offering and sweet
odors to him.
002:047 The king answered to Daniel, and said, Of a truth your God
is the God of gods, and the Lord of kings, and a revealer
of secrets, seeing you have been able to reveal this secret.
002:048 Then the king made Daniel great, and gave him many great gifts,
and made him to rule over the whole province of Babylon,
and to be chief governor over all the wise men of Babylon.
002:049 Daniel requested of the king, and he appointed Shadrach, Meshach,
and Abednego, over the affairs of the province of Babylon:
but Daniel was in the gate of the king.
003:001 Nebuchadnezzar the king made an image of gold, whose height
was sixty cubits, and the breadth of it six cubits:
he set it up in the plain of Dura, in the province of Babylon.
003:002 Then Nebuchadnezzar the king sent to gather together the satraps,
the deputies, and the governors, the judges, the treasurers,
the counselors, the sheriffs, and all the rulers of the provinces,
to come to the dedication of the image which Nebuchadnezzar
the king had set up.
003:003 Then the satraps, the deputies, and the governors, the judges,
the treasurers, the counselors, the sheriffs, and all the rulers
of the provinces, were gathered together to the dedication
of the image that Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up;
and they stood before the image that Nebuchadnezzar had set up.
003:004 Then the herald cried aloud, To you it is commanded,
peoples, nations, and languages,
003:005 that whenever you hear the sound of the horn, flute, zither,
lyre, harp, pipe, and all kinds of music, you fall down
and worship the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king
has set up;
003:006 and whoever doesn't fall down and worship shall the same hour
be cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace.
003:007 Therefore at that time, when all the peoples heard the sound
of the horn, flute, zither, lyre, harp, pipe, and all kinds
of music, all the peoples, the nations, and the languages,
fell down and worshiped the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar
the king had set up.
003:008 Therefore at that time certain Chaldeans came near, and brought
accusation against the Jews.
003:009 They answered Nebuchadnezzar the king, O king, live for ever.
003:010 You, O king, have made a decree, that every man that shall hear
the sound of the horn, flute, zither, lyre, harp, pipe, and all
kinds of music, shall fall down and worship the golden image;
003:011 and whoever doesn't fall down and worship shall be cast into
the midst of a burning fiery furnace.
