World English Bible
1尼布甲尼撒 王造了一個金像，高六十肘，寬六肘，立在 巴比倫 省 杜拉 平原。
1Nebuchadnezzar the king made an image of gold, whose height was sixty cubits and its width six cubits. He set it up in the plain of Dura, in the province of Babylon.
2尼布甲尼撒 王差人將總督、欽差、巡撫、臬司、藩司、謀士、法官，和各省的官員都召了來，為 尼布甲尼撒 王所立的像行開光之禮。
2Then Nebuchadnezzar the king sent to gather together the local governors, 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.
3於是總督、欽差、巡撫、臬司、藩司、謀士、法官，和各省的官員都聚集了來，要為 尼布甲尼撒 王所立的像行開光之禮，就站在 尼布甲尼撒 所立的像前。
3Then the local governors, 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.
4那時傳令的大聲呼叫說：「各方、各國、各族的人哪，有令傳與你們：
4Then the herald cried aloud, “To you it is commanded, peoples, nations, and languages,
5你們一聽見角、笛、琵琶、琴、瑟、笙，和各樣樂器的聲音，就當俯伏敬拜 尼布甲尼撒 王所立的金像。
5that 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.
6凡不俯伏敬拜的，必立時扔在烈火的窯中。」
6Whoever doesn’t fall down and worship shall be cast into the middle of a burning fiery furnace the same hour.”
7因此各方、各國、各族的人民一聽見角、笛、琵琶、琴、瑟，和各樣樂器的聲音，就都俯伏敬拜 尼布甲尼撒 王所立的金像。
7Therefore 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.
8那時，有幾個 迦勒底 人進前來控告 猶大 人。
8Therefore at that time certain Chaldeans came near and brought accusation against the Jews.
9他們對 尼布甲尼撒 王說：「願王萬歲！
9They answered Nebuchadnezzar the king, “O king, live for ever!
10王啊，你曾降旨說，凡聽見角、笛、琵琶、琴、瑟、笙，和各樣樂器聲音的都當俯伏敬拜金像。
10You, O king, have made a decree that every man who hears the sound of the horn, flute, zither, lyre, harp, pipe, and all kinds of music shall fall down and worship the golden image;
11凡不俯伏敬拜的，必扔在烈火的窯中。
11and whoever doesn’t fall down and worship shall be cast into the middle of a burning fiery furnace.
12現在有幾個 猶大 人，就是王所派管理 巴比倫 省事務的 沙得拉 、 米煞 、 亞伯尼歌 ；王啊，這些人不理你，不事奉你的神，也不敬拜你所立的金像。」
12There are certain Jews whom you have appointed over the affairs of the province of Babylon: Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. These men, O king, have not respected you. They don’t serve your gods, and don’t worship the golden image which you have set up.”
13當時， 尼布甲尼撒 沖沖大怒，吩咐人把 沙得拉 、 米煞 、 亞伯尼歌 帶過來，他們就把那些人帶到王面前。
13Then Nebuchadnezzar in rage and fury commanded that Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego be brought. Then these men were brought before the king.
14尼布甲尼撒 問他們說：「 沙得拉 、 米煞 、 亞伯尼歌 ，你們不事奉我的神，也不敬拜我所立的金像，是故意的嗎？
14Nebuchadnezzar answered them, “Is it true, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, that you don’t serve my gods and you don’t worship the golden image which I have set up?
15你們再聽見角、笛、琵琶、琴、瑟、笙，和各樣樂器的聲音，若俯伏敬拜我所造的像，卻還可以；若不敬拜，必立時扔在烈火的窯中，有何神能救你們脫離我手呢？」
15Now if you are ready whenever you hear the sound of the horn, flute, zither, lyre, harp, pipe, and all kinds of music to fall down and worship the image which I have made, good; but if you don’t worship, you shall be cast the same hour into the middle of a burning fiery furnace. Who is that god who will deliver you out of my hands?”
16沙得拉 、 米煞 、 亞伯尼歌 對王說：「 尼布甲尼撒 啊，這件事我們不必回答你，
16Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego answered the king, “Nebuchadnezzar, we have no need to answer you in this matter.
17即便如此，我們所事奉的上帝能將我們從烈火的窯中救出來。王啊，他也必救我們脫離你的手；
17If it happens, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace; and he will deliver us out of your hand, O king.
18即或不然，王啊，你當知道我們決不事奉你的神，也不敬拜你所立的金像。」
18But if not, let it be known to you, O king, that we will not serve your gods or worship the golden image which you have set up.”
19當時， 尼布甲尼撒 怒氣填胸，向 沙得拉 、 米煞 、 亞伯尼歌 變了臉色，吩咐人把窯燒熱，比尋常更加七倍；
19Then Nebuchadnezzar was full of fury, and the form of his appearance was changed against Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. He spoke, and commanded that they should heat the furnace seven times more than it was usually heated.
20又吩咐他軍中的幾個壯士，將 沙得拉 、 米煞 、 亞伯尼歌 捆起來，扔在烈火的窯中。
20He commanded certain mighty men who were in his army to bind Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, and to cast them into the burning fiery furnace.
21這三人穿着褲子、內袍、外衣，和 別的 衣服，被捆起來扔在烈火的窯中。
21Then these men were bound in their pants, their tunics, and their mantles, and their other clothes, and were cast into the middle of the burning fiery furnace.
22因為王命緊急，窯又甚熱，那抬 沙得拉 、 米煞 、 亞伯尼歌 的人都被火焰燒死。
22Therefore because the king’s commandment was urgent and the furnace exceedingly hot, the flame of the fire killed those men who took up Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego.
23沙得拉 、 米煞 、 亞伯尼歌 這三個人都被捆着落在烈火的窯中。
23These three men, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, fell down bound into the middle of the burning fiery furnace.
24那時， 尼布甲尼撒 王驚奇，急忙起來，對謀士說：「我們捆起來扔在火裏的不是三個人嗎？」他們回答王說：「王啊，是。」
24Then Nebuchadnezzar the king was astonished and rose up in haste. He spoke and said to his counselors, “Didn’t we cast three men bound into the middle of the fire?” They answered the king, “True, O king.”
25王說：「看哪，我見有四個人，並沒有捆綁，在火中遊行，也沒有受傷；那第四個的相貌好像神子。」
25He answered, “Look, I see four men loose, walking in the middle of the fire, and they are unharmed. The appearance of the fourth is like a son of the gods.”
26於是， 尼布甲尼撒 就近烈火窯門，說：「至高上帝的僕人 沙得拉 、 米煞 、 亞伯尼歌 出來，上這裏來吧！」 沙得拉 、 米煞 、 亞伯尼歌 就從火中出來了。
26Then Nebuchadnezzar came near to the mouth of the burning fiery furnace. He spoke and said, “Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, you servants of the Most High God, come out, and come here!” Then Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego came out of the middle of the fire.
27那些總督、欽差、巡撫，和王的謀士一同聚集看這三個人，見火無力傷他們的身體，頭髮也沒有燒焦，衣裳也沒有變色，並沒有火燎的氣味。
27The local governors, the deputies, and the governors, and the king’s counselors, being gathered together, saw these men, that the fire had no power on their bodies. The hair of their head wasn’t singed. Their pants weren’t changed. The smell of fire wasn’t even on them.
28尼布甲尼撒 說：「 沙得拉 、 米煞 、 亞伯尼歌 的上帝是應當稱頌的！他差遣使者救護倚靠他的僕人，他們不遵王命，捨去己身，在他們上帝以外不肯事奉敬拜別神。
28Nebuchadnezzar spoke and said, “Blessed be the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, who has sent his angel and delivered his servants who trusted in him, and have changed the king’s word, and have yielded their bodies, that they might not serve nor worship any god except their own God.
29現在我降旨，無論何方、何國、何族的人，謗讟 沙得拉 、 米煞 、 亞伯尼歌 之上帝的，必被凌遲，他的房屋必成糞堆，因為沒有別神能這樣施行拯救。」
29Therefore I make a decree that every people, nation, and language which speak anything evil against the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego shall be cut in pieces, and their houses shall be made a dunghill, because there is no other god who is able to deliver like this.”
30那時王在 巴比倫 省，高升了 沙得拉 、 米煞 、 亞伯尼歌 。
30Then the king promoted Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego in the province of Babylon.
