- 1. (25) Then Azarias stood vp & prayed on this manner, and opening his mouth in the midst of the fire, said,
- 2. (26) Blessed art thou, O Lord God of our fathers: thy Name is worthy to be praised, and glorified for euermore.
- 3. (27) For thou art righteous in all the things that thou hast done to vs: yea, true are all thy workes: thy wayes are right, and all thy iudgements trueth.
- 4. (28) In all the things that thou hast brought vpon vs, and vpon the holy citie of our fathers, euen Ierusalem, thou hast executed true iudgement: for according to trueth and iudgement, didst thou bring all these things vpon vs, because of our sinnes.
- 5. (29) For wee haue sinned and committed iniquitie, departing from thee.
- 6. (30) In all things haue we trespassed, and not obeyed thy Commandements, nor kept them, neither done as thou hast commanded vs, that it might goe well with vs.
- 7. (31) Wherefore all that thou hast brought vpon vs, and euery thing that thou hast done to vs, thou hast done in true iudgement.
- 8. (32) And thou didst deliuer vs into the hands of lawlesse enemies, most hatefull forsakers and to an vniust King, and the most wicked in all the world.
- 9. (33) And now wee can not open our mouthes, we are become a shame, and reproch to thy seruants, and to them that worship thee.
- 10. (34) Yet deliuer vs not vp wholy for thy Names sake, neither disanull thou thy Couenant:
- 11. (35) And cause not thy mercy to depart from vs: for thy beloued Abrahams sake: for thy seruant Isaacs sake, and for thy holy Israels sake.
- 12. (36) To whom thou hast spoken and promised, That thou wouldest multiply their seed as the starres of heauen, and as the sand that lyeth vpon the sea shore.
- 13. (37) For we, O Lord, are become lesse then any nation, and bee kept vnder this day in all the world, because of our sinnes.
- 14. (38) Neither is there at this time, Prince, or Prophet, or leader, or burnt offering, or sacrifice, or oblation, or incense, or place to sacrifice before thee, and to finde mercie.
- 15. (39) Neuerthelesse in a contrite heart, and an humble spirit, let vs be accepted.
- 16. (40) Like as in the burnt offering of rammes and bullockes, and like as in ten thousands of fat lambes: so let our sacrifice bee in thy sight this day, and that wee may wholy goe after thee: for they shall not bee confounded that put their trust in thee.
- 17. (41) And now wee follow thee, with all our heart, wee feare thee, and seeke thy face.
- 18. (42) Put vs not to shame: but deale with vs after thy louing kindenesse, and according to the multitude of thy mercies.
- 19. (43) Deliuer vs also according to thy marueilous workes, and giue glory to thy Name, O Lord, and let all them that doe thy seruants hurt be ashamed.
- 20. (44) And let them be confounded in all their power and might, and let their strength be broken.
- 21. (45) And let them know that thou art Lord, the onely God, and glorious ouer the whole world.
- 22. (46) And the kings seruants that put them in, ceased not to make the ouen hote with rosin, pitch, towe, and small wood.
- 23. (47) So that the flame streamed forth aboue the fornace, fourtie and nine cubites:
- 24. (48) And it passed through, and burnt those Caldeans it found about the fornace.
- 25. (49) But the Angel of the Lord came downe into the ouen, together with Azarias and his fellowes, and smote the flame of the fire out of the ouen:
- 26. (50) And made the mids of the fornace, as it had bene a moist whistling wind, so that the fire touched them not at all, neither hurt nor troubled them.
- 27. (51) Then the three, as out of one mouth, praised, glorified, and blessed God in the fornace, saying;
- 28. (52) Blessed art thou, O Lord God of our fathers: and to be praised and exalted aboue all for euer.
- 29. (53) And blessed is thy glorious and holy Name: and to be praised and exalted aboue all for euer.
- 30. (54) Blessed art thou in the Temple of thine holy glory: and to be praised and glorified aboue all for euer.
- 31. (55) Blessed art thou that beholdest the depths, and sittest vpon the Cherubims, and to be praised and exalted aboue all for euer.
- 32. (56) Blessed art thou on the glorious Throne of thy kingdome: and to bee praised and glorified aboue all for euer.
- 33. (57) Blessed art thou in the firmament of heauen: and aboue all to be praised and glorified for euer.
