Therefore at that time, when all the people heard the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, and all kinds of musick, all the people, the nations, and the languages, fell down and worshipped the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up.

Verse 7 is found in chapter 3 of Daniel. Nebuchadnezzar erects a massive image and gathers representatives from throughout the empire to inaugurate it through a public ceremony. The scene turns political loyalty into a religious test: everyone must bow when the music sounds. The later conflict arises precisely because Daniel’s friends cannot accept that obedience to imperial power includes an act of worship incompatible with their faithfulness to God.

Da sie nun hörten den Schall der Posaunen, Drommeten, Harfen, Geigen, Psalter und allerlei Saitenspiel, fielen nieder alle Völker, Leute und Zungen und beteten an das goldene Bild, das der König Nebukadnezar hatte setzen lassen.
Por lo cual, en oyendo todos los pueblos el son de la bocina, del pífano, del tamboril, del arpa, del salterio, de la zampoña, y de todo instrumento músico, todos los pueblos, naciones, y lenguas, se postraron, y adoraron la estatua de oro que el rey Nabucodonosor había levantado.
C'est pourquoi, au moment où tous les peuples entendirent le son de la trompette, du chalumeau, de la guitare, de la sambuque, du psaltérion, et de toutes sortes d'instruments de musique, tous les peuples, les nations, les hommes de toutes langues se prosternèrent et adorèrent la statue d'or qu'avait élevée le roi Nebucadnetsar.
Per la qual cosa, tutti i popoli, nazioni, e lingue, in quello stante ch’ebbero udito il suon del corno, del flauto, della cetera, dell’arpicordo, del salterio, e d’ogni specie di strumenti di musica, si gettarono in terra, e adorarono la statua d’oro, che il re Nebucadnesar avea rizzata
Portanto, no mesmo instante em que todos os povos ouviram o som da buzina, da flauta, da harpa, da sambuca, do saltério e de toda a espécie de música, prostraram-se todos os povos, nações e línguas, e adoraram a estátua de ouro que o rei Nabucodonosor tinha levantado.
因此百姓一聽見角、號、琴、瑟、三角琴 和各樣樂器的聲音,各方、各國、各族的人就都俯伏,拜 尼布甲尼撒 王所立的金像。
