Exegesis
The objects “Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego” are followed by the prepositional phrase leattun {לְאַתּ֥וּן | lə-ʾat-tûn} ‘into the furnace’ coupled with nura yaqidta {נוּרָ֖א יָקִֽדְתָּֽא | nū-rā yā-qid-tā} ‘of fire burning’, expressing the punitive result. The English rendering preserves the Aramaic’s parallel infinitive structure to reflect the immediacy and severity of the king’s command.
