⁴ A herald loudly proclaimed, “People of every nation and language, you are commanded:

⁷ Therefore, when all the people heard the sound of the horn, flute, zither, lyre, harp, and every kind of music, people of every nation and language fell down and worshiped the gold statue that King Nebuchadnezzar had set up.

Nebuchadnezzar’s Proclamation

¹⁹ Because of the greatness He gave him, all peoples, nations, and languages^(A) were terrified and fearful of him. He killed anyone he wanted and kept alive anyone he wanted; he exalted anyone he wanted and humbled anyone he wanted.

⁹ And they sang a new song:^(A)

A Multitude from the Great Tribulation

⁹ After this I looked, and there was a vast multitude from every nation, tribe, people, and language, which no one could number, standing before the throne and before the Lamb. They were robed in white with palm branches in their hands.

⁹ And representatives from^[a] the peoples, tribes, languages, and nations^(A) will view their bodies for three and a half days and not permit their bodies to be put into a tomb.
