17 Ecco, il nostro Dio che noi serviamo, è potente da liberarci, e ci libererà dalla fornace del fuoco ardente, e dalla tua mano, o re.
18 Se no, sappi o re, che noi non serviremo i tuoi dèi e non adoreremo la statua d’oro che tu hai eretto".
19 Allora Nebucadnetsar fu ripieno di furore, e l’aspetto del suo viso fu mutato verso Shadrac, Meshac e Abed-nego. Egli riprese la parola, e si ordinò che si accendesse la fornace sette volte più di quello che s’era pensato di fare;
