Then Nebuchadnezzar spake, and said, Blessed be the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, who hath sent his angel, and delivered his servants that trusted in him, and have changed the king's word, and yielded their bodies, that they might not serve nor worship any god, except their own God.

Verse 28 is found in chapter 3 of Daniel. After the miracle, Nebuchadnezzar blesses the God of the three young men and acknowledges that no other deity has acted in this way. The king’s response constitutes an important recognition, although the chapter does not need to resolve the full depth of his personal conversion. The narrative point is that imperial authority is forced to acknowledge that a power greater than itself exists.

Da fing Nebukadnezar an und sprach: Gelobt sei der Gott Sadrachs, Mesachs und Abed-Negos, der seinen Engel gesandt und seine Knechte errettet hat, die ihm vertraut und des Königs Gebot nicht gehalten, sondern ihren Leib dargegeben haben, daß sie keinen Gott ehren noch anbeten wollten als allein ihren Gott!
Nabucodonosor habló y dijo: Bendito el Dios de ellos, de Sadrach, Mesach, y Abed-nego, que envió su ángel, y libró sus siervos que esperaron en él, y el mandamiento del rey mudaron, y entregaron sus cuerpos antes que sirviesen ni adorasen otro dios que su Dios.
Nebucadnetsar prit la parole et dit: Béni soit le Dieu de Schadrac, de Méschac et d'Abed-Nego, lequel a envoyé son ange et délivré ses serviteurs qui ont eu confiance en lui, et qui ont violé l'ordre du roi et livré leurs corps plutôt que de servir et d'adorer aucun autre dieu que leur Dieu!
E Nebucadnesar prese a dire: Benedetto sia l’Iddio di Sadrac, di Mesac, e di Abed-nego, il quale ha mandato il suo Angelo, ed ha liberati i suoi servitori, che si son confidati in lui, ed hanno trapassato il comandamento del re, ed hanno esposti i lor corpi, per non servire, nè adorare alcun altro dio, che il lor Dio.
Falou Nabucodonosor, dizendo: Bendito seja o Deus de Sadraque, Mesaque e Abednego, que enviou o seu anjo, e livrou os seus servos, que confiaram nele, pois violaram a palavra do rei, preferindo entregar os seus corpos, para que não servissem nem adorassem algum outro deus, senão o seu Deus.
尼布甲尼撒 說:「 沙得拉 、 米煞 、 亞伯尼歌 的上帝是應當稱頌的!他差遣使者救護倚靠他的僕人,他們不遵王的命令,甚至捨身,在他們上帝以外不肯事奉敬拜別神。
