At this time some astrologers came forward and denounced the Jews.
They said to King Nebuchadnezzar, "May the king live forever!
Your Majesty has issued a decree that everyone who hears the sound of the horn, flute, zither, lyre, harp, pipe and all kinds of music must fall down and worship the image of gold,
and that whoever does not fall down and worship will be thrown into a blazing furnace.
But there are some Jews whom you have set over the affairs of the province of Babylon-Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego-who pay no attention to you, Your Majesty. They neither serve your gods nor worship the image of gold you have set up."
那時，有幾個迦勒底人進前來控告猶大人。
他們對尼布甲尼撒王說：「願王萬歲！
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。
凡不俯伏敬拜的，必扔在烈火的窯中。
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。」
列王記上 19:18

The messenger who had gone to summon Micaiah said to him, "Look, the other prophets without exception are predicting success for the king. Let your word agree with theirs, and speak favorably."
But Micaiah said, "As surely as the Lord lives, I can tell him only what the Lord tells me."
那去召米該雅的使者對米該雅說；「眾先知一口同音地都向王說吉言，你不如與他們說一樣的話，也說吉言。」
米該雅說：「我指著永生的耶和華起誓，耶和華對我說什麼，我就說什麼。」

Now when Daniel learned that the decree had been published, he went home to his upstairs room where the windows opened toward Jerusalem. Three times a day he got down on his knees and prayed, giving thanks to his God, just as he had done before.
