H9010–א/–a

Nebuchadnezzar answered and said unto them, Is it of purpose, O Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, that ye serve not my god, nor worship the golden image which I have set up?

דַּהֲבָ֛א (א) ' “gold”

Now if ye be ready that at what time ye hear the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, and dulcimer, and all kinds of music, ye fall down and worship the image which I have made, [supplied: well]: but if ye worship not, ye shall be cast the same hour into the midst of a burning fiery furnace; and who is that god that shall deliver you out of my hands?

בְעִדָּנָ֡א (א) ' “the”קַרְנָ֣א (א) ' “the”מַשְׁרוֹקִיתָ֣א (א) ' “the”זְמָרָ֗א (א) ' “music”לְצַלְמָ֣א (א) ' “the”שַׁעֲתָ֣ה (ה) ' “the”נוּרָ֖א (א) ' “the”יָקִֽדְתָּ֑א (א) ' “burning”

Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego answered and said to the king, O Nebuchadnezzar, we have no need to answer thee in this matter.

לְמַלְכָּ֑א (א) ' “the”

If it be [supplied: so], our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace; and he will deliver us out of thy hand, O king.

נוּרָ֧א (א) ' “the”יָקִֽדְתָּ֛א (א) ' “burning”מַלְכָּ֖א (א) ' “O”

But if not, be it known unto thee, O king, that we will not serve thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up.

מַלְכָּ֑א (א) ' “O”דַּהֲבָ֛א (א) ' “gold”

Then was Nebuchadnezzar full of fury, and the form of his visage was changed against Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego: [supplied: therefore] he spake, and commanded that they should heat the furnace seven times more than it was wont to be heated.

לְאַתּוּנָ֔א (א) ' “the”

And he commanded certain mighty men that were in his army to bind Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, [supplied: and] to cast them into the burning fiery furnace.

נוּרָ֖א (א) ' “the”יָקִֽדְתָּֽא׃ (א) ' “burning”

Then these men were bound in their hosen, their tunics, and their mantles, and their [supplied: other] garments, and were cast into the midst of the burning fiery furnace.

גֻּבְרַיָּ֣א (א) ' “the”נוּרָ֖א (א) ' “the”יָקִֽדְתָּֽא׃ (א) ' “burning”

Therefore because the king's commandment was urgent, and the furnace exceeding hot, the flame of the fire slew those men that took up Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego.

מַלְכָּא֙ (א֙) ' “the”וְאַתּוּנָ֖א (א) ' “the”גֻּבְרַיָּ֣א (א) ' “the”שְׁבִיבָ֖א (א) ' “the”נוּרָֽא׃ (א) ' “the”

And these three men, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, fell down bound into the midst of the burning fiery furnace.

וְגֻבְרַיָּ֤א (א) ' “the”נוּרָ֥א (א) ' “the”יָֽקִדְתָּ֖א (א) ' “burning”

Then Nebuchadnezzar the king was astonished, and rose up in haste: he spake and said unto his counsellors, Did not we cast three men bound into the midst of the fire? They answered and said unto the king, True, O king.

מַלְכָּ֔א (א) ' “the”נוּרָא֙ (א֙) ' “the”לְמַלְכָּ֔א (א) ' “the”מַלְכָּֽא׃ (א) ' “O”

He answered and said, Lo, I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire, and they have no hurt; and the aspect of the fourth is like a son of the gods.

נוּרָ֔א (א) ' “the”רְֽבִיעָאָ֔ה (אָ֔ה) ' “the”

Then Nebuchadnezzar came near to the mouth of the burning fiery furnace: he spake and said, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, ye servants of the Most High God, come forth, and come hither. Then Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego came forth out of the midst of the fire.

נוּרָ֣א (א) ' “the”יָקִֽדְתָּא֒ (א֒) ' “burning”אֱלָהָ֥א (א) ' “God”עִלָּאָ֖ה (ה) ' “the”נוּרָֽא׃ (א) ' “the”

And the satraps, the deputies, and the governors, and the king's counsellors, being gathered together, saw these men, that the fire had no power upon their bodies, nor was the hair of their head singed, neither were their hosen changed, nor had the smell of fire passed on them.

אֲחַשְׁדַּרְפְּנַיָּ֞א (א) ' “the”סִגְנַיָּ֣א (א) ' “the”וּפַחֲוָתָא֮ (א֮) ' “the”מַלְכָּא֒ (א֒) ' “the”לְגֻבְרַיָּ֣א (א) ' “the”נוּרָ֜א (א) ' “the”

Nebuchadnezzar spake and said, Blessed be the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, who hath sent his angel, and delivered his servants that 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.

מַלְכָּא֙ (א֙) ' “the”

Then the king promoted Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego in the province of Babylon.

מַלְכָּ֗א (א) ' “the”

Nebuchadnezzar the king, unto all the peoples, nations, and languages, that dwell in all the earth: Peace be multiplied unto you.

מַלְכָּ֗א (א) ' “the”עַֽמְמַיָּ֞א (א) ' “the”אֻמַיָּ֧א (א) ' “the”וְלִשָּׁנַיָּ֛א (א) ' “the”אַרְעָ֖א (א) ' “the”

It hath seemed good unto me to show the signs and wonders that the Most High God hath wrought toward me.

אָֽתַיָּא֙ (א֙) ' “the”וְתִמְהַיָּ֔א (א) ' “the”אֱלָהָ֖א (א) ' “God”עִלָּאָ֑ה (ה) ' “the”

Therefore made I a decree to bring in all the wise men of Babylon before me, that they might make known unto me the interpretation of the dream.

חֶלְמָ֖א (א) ' “the”

Then came in the magicians, the enchanters, the Chaldeans, and the soothsayers; and I told the dream before them; but they did not make known unto me the interpretation thereof.

חַרְטֻמַיָּא֙ (א֙) ' “the”אָֽשְׁפַיָּ֔א (א) ' “the”וְגָזְרַיָּ֑א (א) ' “the”וְחֶלְמָ֗א (א) ' “the”

But at the last Daniel came in before me, whose name was Belteshazzar, according to the name of my god, and in whom is the spirit of the holy gods: and I told the dream before him, [supplied: saying],

וְחֶלְמָ֖א (א) ' “the”

O Belteshazzar, master of the magicians, because I know that the spirit of the holy gods is in thee, and no secret troubleth thee, tell me the visions of my dream that I have seen, and the interpretation thereof.

חַרְטֻמַיָּא֒ (א֒) ' “the”

Thus were the visions of my head upon my bed: I saw, and, behold, a tree in the midst of the earth; and the height thereof was great.

אַרְעָ֖א (א) ' “the”

The tree grew, and was strong, and the height thereof reached unto heaven, and the sight thereof to the end of all the earth.

אִֽילָנָ֖א (א) ' “the”לִשְׁמַיָּ֔א (א) ' “the”אַרְעָֽא׃ (א) ' “the”

The leaves thereof were fair, and the fruit thereof much, and in it was food for all: the beasts of the field had shadow under it, and the birds of the heavens dwelt in the branches thereof, and all flesh was fed from it.
