Daniel 3:4-6
1599 Geneva Bible
4 Then an herald cried aloud, Be it known to you, O people, [a]nations, and languages,
5 That when ye hear the sound of the cornet, trumpet, harp, sackbut, psaltery, dulcimer, and all instruments of music, ye fall down, and worship the golden image, that Nebuchadnezzar the king hath set up.
6 And whosoever falleth not down, and worshippeth, shall the same hour be cast into the midst of an hot fiery furnace.

- Daniel 3:4 These are the two dangerous weapons, wherewith Satan used to fight against the children of God, the consent of the multitude, and the cruelty of the punishment: for though some feared God, yet the multitude, which consented to the wickedness, astonied them: and here the King required, not an inward consent, but an outward gesture, that the Jews might by little and little learn to forget their true religion.
Daniel 3:4-6
New International Version
4 Then the herald loudly proclaimed, “Nations and peoples of every language,(A) this is what you are commanded to do: 5 As soon as you hear the sound of the horn, flute, zither, lyre, harp,(B) pipe and all kinds of music, you must fall down and worship the image(C) of gold that King Nebuchadnezzar has set up.(D) 6 Whoever does not fall down and worship will immediately be thrown into a blazing furnace.”(E)
