If you don’t pay homage to it, you will immediately be thrown into the midst of the furnace of blazing fire. Now, who is that god who can rescue you from my power?”

Now when you hear the sound of the horn, flute, zither, lyre, harp, pipe and all kinds of music, if you are ready to fall down and worship the image I made, very good.

Then Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, replied,“ Rulers of the people and elders,if we are being examined today for a good deed done to a sick man– by what means this man was healed–let it be known to all of you and to all the people of Israel that by the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene whom you crucified, whom God raised from the dead, this man stands before you healthy.This Jesus is the stone that was rejected by you, the builders, that has become the cornerstone.And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among people by which we must be saved.”

But Pharaoh said,“ Who is the LORD that I should obey him by releasing Israel? I do not know the LORD, and I will not release Israel!”

But Peter and the apostles replied,“ We must obey God rather than people.

When they arrest you and hand you over for trial, do not worry about what to speak. But say whatever is given you at that time, for it is not you speaking, but the Holy Spirit.

But Peter and John replied,“ Whether it is right before God to obey you rather than God, you decide,

Now don’t let Hezekiah deceive you or mislead you like this. Don’t believe him, for no god of any nation or kingdom has been able to rescue his people from my power or the power of my predecessors. So how can your gods rescue you from my power?’”Sennacherib’s servants further insulted the LORD God and his servant Hezekiah.He wrote letters mocking the LORD God of Israel and insulting him with these words:“ The gods of the surrounding nations could not rescue their people from my power. Neither can Hezekiah’s god rescue his people from my power.”

If our God whom we are serving exists, he is able to rescue us from the furnace of blazing fire, and he will rescue us, O king, from your power as well.

So the king gave the order, and Daniel was brought and thrown into a den of lions. The king consoled Daniel by saying,“ Your God whom you continually serve will rescue you!”

When you hear the sound of the horn, flute, zither, trigon, harp, pipes, and all kinds of music, you must bow down and pay homage to the golden statue that King Nebuchadnezzar has erected.Whoever does not bow down and pay homage will immediately be thrown into the midst of a furnace of blazing fire!”

Who among all the gods of the lands has rescued their lands from my power? So how can the LORD rescue Jerusalem from my power?’”

Hezekiah is misleading you when he says,“ The LORD will rescue us.” Has any of the gods of the nations rescued his land from the power of the king of Assyria?Where are the gods of Hamath and Arpad? Where are the gods of Sepharvaim? Indeed, did any gods rescue Samaria from my power?Who among all the gods of these lands have rescued their lands from my power? So how can the LORD rescue Jerusalem from my power?’”

Then if it bears fruit next year, very well, but if not, you can cut it down.’”

Therefore be resolved not to rehearse ahead of time how to make your defense.For I will give you the words along with the wisdom that none of your adversaries will be able to withstand or contradict.

But when they bring you before the synagogues, the rulers, and the authorities, do not worry about how you should make your defense or what you should say,

Nebuchadnezzar exclaimed,“ Praised be the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, who has sent forth his angel and has rescued his servants who trusted in him, ignoring the edict of the king and giving up their bodies rather than serve or pay homage to any god other than their God!I hereby decree that any people, nation, or language group that blasphemes the god of Shadrach, Meshach, or Abednego will be dismembered and his home reduced to rubble! For there exists no other god who can deliver in this way.”

All who were sitting in the council looked intently at Stephen and saw his face was like the face of an angel.

Whom have you taunted and hurled insults at? At whom have you shouted and looked so arrogantly? At the Holy One of Israel!

But now, if you will forgive their sin…, but if not, wipe me out from your book that you have written.”

So then, if you will worship me, all this will be yours.”Jesus answered him,“ It is written,‘ You are to worship the Lord your God and serve only him.’”

As he approached the den, he called out to Daniel in a worried voice,“ Daniel, servant of the living God, was your God whom you continually serve able to rescue you from the lions?”

He trusts in God– let God, if he wants to, deliver him now because he said,‘ I am God’s Son’!”

When the governor gestured for him to speak, Paul replied,“ Because I know that you have been a judge over this nation for many years, I confidently make my defense.As you can verify for yourself, not more than twelve days ago I went up to Jerusalem to worship.They did not find me arguing with anyone or stirring up a crowd in the temple courts or in the synagogues or throughout the city,nor can they prove to you the things they are accusing me of doing.

Whenever they hand you over for trial, do not worry about how to speak or what to say, for what you should say will be given to you at that time.
