Daniel 3:5-15 whenever you shall hear the sound of the trumpet and syrinx and of the kithara and sanibuk and of the psaltery, and all kinds of musical instruments, prostrate yourselves and worship the golden image which Nabuchodonosar the king hath set up.

Thomson⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁵ whenever you shall hear the sound of the trumpet and syrinx and of the kithara and sanibuk and of the psaltery, and all kinds of musical instruments, prostrate yourselves and worship the golden image which Nabuchodonosar the king hath set up. ⁶ And whoever will not prostrate himself and worship, shall that very hour be cast into that furnace of fire, which is heating. ⁷ So when the people heard the sound of the trumpet and syrinx, and of the kithara and sambuk, and of the psaltery, and all kinds of musical instruments, all the peoples, tribes and languages, falling prostrate, worshipped the golden image which nabuchodonosar the king had set up. ⁸ Then came certain Chaldeans, and stated to the king an accusation against the Jews, ⁹ "king, live forever! thou, king, ¹⁰ hast made a decree, that every man who shall hear the sound of the trumpet and syrinx and of the kithara and sambuk, and of the psaltery and all kinds of musical instruments; ¹¹ and who will not prostrate himself and worship the golden image, shall be cast into that furnace of fire which is heated. ¹² Now there are certain Jews whom thou hast set over the works of the province of Babylon, namely, Sedrach, Misach, Abdenago, who have not hearkened, king, to thy decree. They neither serve thy gods, nor do they worship the golden image which thou hast set up." ¹³ Upon this Nabuchodonosar in wrath and fury commanded to bring Sedrach, Misach, Abdenago: and when they were brought before the king, ¹⁴ Nabuchodonosar addressed them, saying, Is it true, Sedrach, Misach, Abdenago, that you do not serve my gods, nor worship the golden image which I have set up? ¹⁵ Now therefore are you ready, when you hear the sound of the trumpet and syrinx and of the kithara and sambuk and of the psaltery and symphony and all kinds of musical instruments, to fall prostrate and worship the golden image which I have made? For if you do not worship you shall, that very hour, be cast into the furnace of fire, which is heated. And what god is there who can deliver you out of my hands?
