²⁸ Nebuchadnezzar answered and said, “Blessed be the God of ^(A)Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, who ^(B)has sent his angel and ^(C)delivered his servants, who ^(D)trusted in him, and set aside^[a] the king's command, and yielded up their bodies rather than ^(E)serve and worship any god except their own God.

²² My God ^(A)sent his angel ^(B)and shut the lions' mouths, and they have not harmed me, because I was found blameless ^(C)before him; ^(D)and also before you, O king, I have done no harm.”
