Daniel 3:88
O Ananias, Azarias, and Misael, bless ye the Lord: praise and exalt him above all for ever. For he hath delivered us from hell, and saved us out of the hand of death, and delivered us out of the midst of the burning flame, and saved us out of the midst of the fire.

- Vulgate (Clementine)
- Benedicite, Anania, Azaria, Misaël, Domino : laudate et superexaltate eum in sæcula : quia eruit nos de inferno, et salvos fecit de manu mortis : et liberavit nos de medio ardentis flammæ, et de medio ignis eruit nos.
- Septuagint (Swete)
- εὐλογεῖτε, Ἁνανία, Ἀζαρία, Μεισαήλ, τὸν κύριον· ὑμνεῖτε καὶ ὑπερυψοῦτε αὐτὸν εἰς τοὺς αἰῶνας· ὅτι ἐξείλατο ἡμᾶς ἐξ ᾅδου, καὶ ἐκ χειρὸς θανάτου ἔσωσεν ἡμᾶς, καὶ ἐρύσατο ἡμᾶς ἐκ μέσου καμίνου καιομένης φλογός, καὶ ἐκ μέσου πυρὸς ἐρύσατο ἡμᾶς.
- Hebrew (WLC)
- The Hebrew Daniel has no such verse: the prayer of Azarias and the song of the three children are in the Greek alone.
Haydock's commentary
Ananias, &c. They retain their Hebrew names, despising those imposed by the Chaldeans, with their impious manners, chap. i. 7. The inanimate creation is invited to praise God in its way, (Psalm cxlviii.) as well as those endued with reason. The former never refuse obedience. (Haydock)
Hell: the grave. (Calmet)
