28 Nebuchadnezzar made answer and said, Praise be to the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, who has sent his angel and kept his servants safe who had faith in him, and who put the king's word on one side and gave up their bodies to the fire, so that they might not be servants or worshippers of any other god but their God.

29 And it is my decision that any people, nation, or language saying evil against the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, will be cut to bits and their houses made waste: because there is no other god who is able to give salvation such as this.

28 Ka korero a Nepukaneha, ka mea, Kia whakapaingia te Atua o Hataraka, o Mehaka, o Apereneko, nana nei i unga mai tana anahera, a whakaorangia ana e ia ana pononga i whakawhirinaki nei ki a ia, i whakaputa ke nei i te kupu a te kingi, a tukua ana e ratou o ratou tinana, he mea kei mahi ratou, kei koropiko ki tetahi atu atua, engari ki to ratou Atua anake.

29 Na ko taku ture tenei e whakatakoto nei, na, ko nga tangata, ko te iwi, ko te reo, he kupu kino nei tana mo te Atua o Hataraka, o Mehaka, o Apereneko, ka haehaea ratou, a ka meinga o ratou whare hei puranga paru: no te mea kahore atu he atua he rite tana whakaora ki ta tenei.
