Daniel 3:13-18 NKJV


Daniel 3:13-18 Then Nebuchadnezzar, in rage and fury, gave the command to bring Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, so they brought these men before the King.

Nebuchadnezzar spoke, saying to them, “Is it true, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego that you do not serve my gods or worship the gold image which I have set up?

“Now if you are ready at the time you hear the sound of the horn, flute, harp, lyre, and psaltery, in symphony with all kinds of music, shall fall down and worship the gold image which I have made, good! But if you do not worship, you shall be cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace. And who is the god who will deliver you from my hands?”

Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego answered and said to the King, “O Nebuchadnezzar we have no need to answer you in this matter.

“If that is the case, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and He will delivery us from your hand, O King.

‘But if not, let it be known to you, O King, that we do not serve your gods, nor will we worship the gold image which you have set up.”

Daniel 2:1-13 Now in the second year of Nebuchadnezzar's reign, Nebuchadnezzar had dreams; and his spirit was so troubled that his sleep left him.

Then the king gave the command to call the magicians, the astrologers, the sorcerers, and the Chaldeans to tell the king his dreams. So they came and stood before the king.

And the king said to them, "I have had a dream, and my spirit is anxious to know the dream."

Then the Chaldeans spoke to the king in aramaic, "O king, live forever! Tell your servants the dream, and we will give the interpretation."

The king answered and said to the Chaldeans, "My decision is firm; if you do not make known the dream to me, and its interpretation, you shall be cut into pieces, and your houses shall be made an ash heap.

"However, if you tell the dream and its interpretation, you shall receive from the gifts, rewards, and great honor. Therefore tell me the dream and its interpretation."

They answered again and said, "Let the king tell his servants the dream, and we will give its interpretation."

The king answered and said, "i know for certain that you would gain time, because you see that my decision is firm:

"if your do not make known the dream to me, there is only one decree for you! For you have agreed to speak lying and corrupt words before me till the time has changed.  Therefore tell me the dream, and I shall know that you can give me its interpretation."

The Chaldeans answered the king, and said, "There is not a man on earth who can tell the king's matter; therefore no king, lord, or ruler has ever asked such things of any magician, astrologer, or Chaldean.

"it is a difficult thing that the king requests, and there is no other who can tell it to the king except the gods, whose dwelling is not with flesh."

For this reason the king was angry and very furious, and gave the command to destroy all the wise men of Babylon.

So the decree went out, and they began killing the wise men; and they sought Daniel and his companions, to kill them.

Exodus 5:1-9 Afterward Moses and Aaron went in and told Pharaoh, "Thus says the LORD God of Israel; 'Let My people go, that they may hold a feast to Me in the wilderness.'"

And Pharaoh said, "Who is the LORD, that I should obey His voice to let Israel go? I do not know the LORD, nor will I let Israel go."

So they said, 'The God of the Hebrews has met with us. Please, let us go three days journey into the desert and sacrifice to the LORD our God, lest He fall upon us with pestilence or with the sword."

Then the king of Egypt said to them, "Moses and Aaron, why do you take the people from their work?  Get back to your labor."

And Pharaoh said, "Look, the people of the land are many now, and you make them rest from their labor!"

So the same day Pharaoh commanded the taskmasters of the people and their officers, saying,

"You shall no longer give the people straw to make brick as before. Let them go and gather straw for themselves.

"And you shall lay on them the quota of bricks which they made before. You shall not reduce it. For they are idle; therefore they cry out, saying, 'Let us go and sacrifice to our God.'

"Let more work be laid on the men, that they may labor in it, and let them not regard false words."
