Then Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego came forth of the midst of the fire.
And the Princes, Governors, and Captains, and the King's Counsellors, who were gathered together watching, saw these men upon whom the fire had no power; nor was a hair of their heads singed, neither were their coats changed, nor the smell of fire had passed on them.
Then Nebuchadnezzar spake and said: "Blessed be the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, Who hath sent His angel and delivered His servants who trusted in Him, and have changed the king's word, and yielded their bodies, that they might not serve nor worship any god except their own God."
So Nebuchadnezzar made another decree, that if any one said anything against the God of these three young men, he should be cut in pieces and his house destroyed—"because there is no other god that can deliver after this sort."
And the king promoted Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego in the province of Babylon.
This is a glorious chapter of one of the greatest deliverances of the Bible; and there are plenty more!
