Daniel 3:5 meaning and explanation
As soon as you hear the sound of the horn, flute, zither, lyre, harp, pipes, and all kinds of music, you must fall down and worship the golden statue that King Nebuchadnezzar has set up.
Daniel 3:5, Berean Standard Bible

The list of instruments, repeated through the chapter, drives home that this is a public, coordinated act of worship ordered by the king, not a private conviction.
