Nearby Context

Daniel 3:28 Nebuchadnezzar hath answered and hath said, `Blessed <FI>is<Fi> the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, who hath sent His messenger, and hath delivered His servants who trusted on Him, and the word of the king changed, and gave up their bodies that they might not serve nor do obeisance to any god except to their own God.

Daniel 3:29 And by me a decree is made, that any people, nation, and language, that doth speak erroneously concerning the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, pieces he is made, and its house is made a dunghill, because that there is no other god who is able thus to deliver.'

Daniel 3:30 Then the king hath caused Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, to prosper in the province of Babylon.

Study Lenses

The verse centers on "king", "hath", "caused", "shadrach", "meshach", "abed-nego", "prosper", and "province". It is saying that the verse draws attention to "king" and "hath", so its meaning should be read from those terms before moving to application.

The prior verse says "And by me a decree is made...", giving immediate footing for "king" and "hath". In Daniel context, the local focus is covenant, worship, and faithfulness.

A plain takeaway is to answer the verse's own emphasis on "king" and "hath" with trust shaped by these words, not by a vague optimism outside the passage.
