Daniel 3:16 in Context — Daniel 3
14 Nabucodonosor lhes disse: É verdade, Sadraque, Mesaque, e Abednego, que vós não servis a meus deuses, nem adorais a estátua de ouro que ergui?
15 Agora pois, se estais prontos, quando ouvirdes o som da trombeta, do pífano, da cítara, da harpa, do saltério, da flauta, e de todo instrumento musical, prostrai-vos e adorai a estátua que eu fiz. Porém se não a adorardes, na mesma hora sereis lançados dentro da fornalha de fogo ardente; e quem é o Deus que vos livrará de minhas mãos?
16 Sadraque, Mesaque, e Abednego responderam ao rei Nabucodonosor: Não necessitamos de responder sobre este negócio.
17 Eis que nosso Deus a quem servimos pode nos livrar da fornalha de fogo ardente; e ele nos livrará de tua mão, ó rei.
18 E se não, sabe tu, ó rei, que não serviremos a teus deuses, nem adoraremos a estátua que ergueste.
