Daniel 3:15
Study it in the app“Now if you are ready at the moment that you hear the sound of the horn, the flute, the zither, the sambuca, the psaltery, and the bagpipe, and every kind of music, to fall down and bow down to the image that I made, good; but if you do not bow down, at that very moment you will be thrown into the midst of the furnace of fire blazing; and who is the Elah who will deliver you from my hands?””
