20 And to men mighty of valor who were in his army, he commanded to bind Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, to cast them into the burning furnace of fire. 21 Then these men were bound in their coats, their trousers, and their turbans, and their garments, and they were cast into the midst of the burning furnace of fire. 22 All because of this, upon that the command of the king was urgent and the furnace was extremely hot, these men who took up Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, the flame of fire killed them. 23 And these three men—Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, fell into the midst of the burning furnace of fire, bound. 24 Then Nebuchadnezzar the king was startled, and he rose in haste; he spoke and said to his counselors, “Was it not that we cast three men into the midst of the fire, bound?” They answered and said to the king, “Certainly, O King.” 25 He answered and said, “Behold! I am seeing four men unbound, walking in the midst of the fire, and there is to them no harm! And his appearance, that of the fourth, is like a son of the gods!” Daniel 3:20-25, Berean Literal Bible.
