Daniel 3:20-25
3:20 He ordered strong
soldiers in his army to tie up Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego and to throw them into the furnace of blazing fire.
3:21 So those men were tied up while still wearing their cloaks, trousers, turbans, and other clothes,
and were thrown into the furnace
of blazing fire.
3:22 But since the king’s command was so urgent, and the furnace was so excessively hot, the men who escorted
Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego were killed
by the leaping flames.
3:23 But those three men, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, fell into the furnace
of blazing fire while still securely bound.

3:24 Then King Nebuchadnezzar was startled and quickly got up. He said to his ministers, “Wasn’t it three men that we tied up and threw into the fire?” They replied to the king, “For sure, O king.”
3:25 He answered, “But I see four men, untied and walking around in the midst of the fire! No harm has come to them! And the appearance of the fourth is like that of a god!”
