دَانِيآل 1
| فِي ٱلسَّنَةِ ٱلثَّالِثَةِ مِنْ مُلْكِ يَهُويَاقِيمَ مَلِكِ يَهُوذَا، ذَهَبَ نَبُوخَذْنَاصَّرُ مَلِكُ بَابِلَ إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ وَحَاصَرَهَا. | ١ 1 |
In the third year of the reign of Joakim king of Juda, came Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon to Jerusalem, and besieged it.
| وَسَلَّمَ ٱلرَّبُّ بِيَدِهِ يَهُويَاقِيمَ مَلِكَ يَهُوذَا مَعَ بَعْضِ آنِيَةِ بَيْتِ ٱللهِ، فَجَاءَ بِهَا إِلَى أَرْضِ شِنْعَارَ إِلَى بَيْتِ إِلَهِهِ، وَأَدْخَلَ ٱلْآنِيَةَ إِلَى خِزَانَةِ بَيْتِ إِلَهِهِ. | ٢ 2 |
And the Lord gave into his hand Joakim king of Juda, and part of the vessels of the house of God: and he brought them into the land of Sennaar to the house of his god; and he brought the vessels into the treasure-house of his god.
| وَأَمَرَ ٱلْمَلِكُ أَشْفَنَزَ رَئِيسَ خِصْيَانِهِ بِأَنْ يُحْضِرَ مِنْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ وَمِنْ نَسْلِ ٱلْمُلْكِ وَمِنَ ٱلشُّرَفَاءِ، | ٣ 3 |
And the king told Asphanez his chief eunuch, to bring in [some] of the captive children of Israel, and of the seed of the kingdom, and of the princes;
| فِتْيَانًا لَا عَيْبَ فِيهِمْ، حِسَانَ ٱلْمَنْظَرِ، حَاذِقِينَ فِي كُلِّ حِكْمَةٍ وَعَارِفِينَ مَعْرِفَةً وَذَوِي فَهْمٍ بِٱلْعِلْمِ، وَٱلَّذِينَ فِيهِمْ قُوَّةٌ عَلَى ٱلْوُقُوفِ فِي قَصْرِ ٱلْمَلِكِ، فَيُعَلِّمُوهُمْ كِتَابَةَ ٱلْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ وَلِسَانَهُمْ. | ٤ 4 |
young men in whom was no blemish, and beautiful in appearance, and skilled in all wisdom, and possessing knowledge, and acquainted with prudence, and who had ability to stand in the house before the king, and [the king gave commandment] to teach them the learning and language of the Chaldeans.
| وَعَيَّنَ لَهُمُ ٱلْمَلِكُ وَظِيفَةً كُلَّ يَوْمٍ بِيَوْمِهِ مِنْ أَطَايِبِ ٱلْمَلِكِ وَمِنْ خَمْرِ مَشْرُوبِهِ لِتَرْبِيَتِهِمْ ثَلَاثَ سِنِينَ، وَعِنْدَ نِهَايَتِهَا يَقِفُونَ أَمَامَ ٱلْمَلِكِ. | ٥ 5 |
And the king appointed them a daily portion from the king’s table, and from the wine which he drank; and [gave orders] to nourish them three years, and [that] afterwards they should stand before the king.
| وَكَانَ بَيْنَهُمْ مِنْ بَنِي يَهُوذَا: دَانِيآلُ وَحَنَنْيَا وَمِيشَائِيلُ وَعَزَرْيَا. | ٦ 6 |
Now these were among them of the children of Juda, Daniel, and Ananias, and Azarias, and Misael.
| فَجَعَلَ لَهُمْ رَئِيسُ ٱلْخِصْيَانِ أَسْمَاءً، فَسَمَّى دَانِيآلَ «بَلْطَشَاصَّرَ»، وَحَنَنْيَا «شَدْرَخَ»، وَمِيشَائِيلَ «مِيشَخَ»، وَعَزَرْيَا «عَبْدَنَغُوَ». | ٧ 7 |
And the chief of the eunuchs gave them names: to Daniel, Baltasar; and to Ananias, Sedrach; and to Misael, Misach; and to Azarias, Abdenago.
| أَمَّا دَانِيآلُ فَجَعَلَ فِي قَلْبِهِ أَنَّهُ لَا يَتَنَجَّسُ بِأَطَايِبِ ٱلْمَلِكِ وَلَا بِخَمْرِ مَشْرُوبِهِ، فَطَلَبَ مِنْ رَئِيسِ ٱلْخِصْيَانِ أَنْ لَا يَتَنَجَّسَ. | ٨ 8 |
And Daniel purposed in his heart, that he would not defile himself with the king’s table, nor with the wine of his drink: and he intreated the chief of the eunuchs that he might not defile himself.
| وَأَعْطَى ٱللهُ دَانِيآلَ نِعْمَةً وَرَحْمَةً عِنْدَ رَئِيسِ ٱلْخِصْيَانِ. | ٩ 9 |
Now God [had] brought Daniel into favour and compassion with the chief of the eunuchs.
| فَقَالَ رَئِيسُ ٱلْخِصْيَانِ لِدَانِيآلَ: «إِنِّي أَخَافُ سَيِّدِي ٱلْمَلِكَ ٱلَّذِي عَيَّنَ طَعَامَكُمْ وَشَرَابَكُمْ. فَلِمَاذَا يَرَى وُجُوهَكُمْ أَهْزَلَ مِنَ ٱلْفِتْيَانِ ٱلَّذِينَ مِنْ جِيلِكُمْ، فَتُدَيِّنُونَ رَأْسِي لِلْمَلِكِ؟». | ١٠ 10 |
And the chief of the eunuchs said to Daniel, I fear my lord the king, who has appointed your meat and your drink, lest he see your countenances gloomy in comparison of the young men your equals; so shall ye endanger my head to the king.
| فَقَالَ دَانِيآلُ لِرَئِيسِ ٱلسُّقَاةِ ٱلَّذِي وَلَّاهُ رَئِيسُ ٱلْخِصْيَانِ عَلَى دَانِيآلَ وَحَنَنْيَا وَمِيشَائِيلَ وَعَزَرْيَا: | ١١ 11 |
And Daniel said to Amelsad, whom the chief of the eunuchs had appointed over Daniel, Ananias, Misael, [and] Azarias,
| «جَرِّبْ عَبِيدَكَ عَشَرَةَ أَيَّامٍ. فَلْيُعْطُونَا ٱلْقَطَانِيَّ لِنَأْكُلَ وَمَاءً لِنَشْرَبَ. | ١٢ 12 |
Prove now thy servants ten days; and let them give us pulse, and let us eat, and let us drink water:
| وَلْيَنْظُرُوا إِلَى مَنَاظِرِنَا أَمَامَكَ وَإِلَى مَنَاظِرِ ٱلْفِتْيَانِ ٱلَّذِينَ يَأْكُلُونَ مِنْ أَطَايِبِ ٱلْمَلِكِ. ثُمَّ ٱصْنَعْ بِعَبِيدِكَ كَمَا تَرَى». | ١٣ 13 |
and let our countenances be seen by thee, and the countenances of the children that eat [at] the king’s table; and deal with thy servants according as thou shalt see.
| فَسَمِعَ لَهُمْ هَذَا ٱلْكَلَامَ وَجَرَّبَهُمْ عَشَرَةَ أَيَّامٍ. | ١٤ 14 |
And he hearkened to them, and proved them ten days.
| وَعِنْدَ نِهَايَةِ ٱلْعَشَرَةِ ٱلْأَيَّامِ ظَهَرَتْ مَنَاظِرُهُمْ أَحْسَنَ وَأَسْمَنَ لَحْمًا مِنْ كُلِّ ٱلْفِتْيَانِ ٱلْآكِلِينَ مِنْ أَطَايِبِ ٱلْمَلِكِ. | ١٥ 15 |
And at the end of the ten days their countenances appeared fairer and stouter in flesh than the children that fed at the king’s table.
| فَكَانَ رَئِيسُ ٱلسُّقَاةِ يَرْفَعُ أَطَايِبَهُمْ وَخَمْرَ مَشْرُوبِهِمْ وَيُعْطِيهِمْ قَطَانِيَّ. | ١٦ 16 |
So Amelsad took away their supper and the wine of their drink, and gave them pulse.
| أَمَّا هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلْفِتْيَانُ ٱلْأَرْبَعَةُ فَأَعْطَاهُمُ ٱللهُ مَعْرِفَةً وَعَقْلًا فِي كُلِّ كِتَابَةٍ وَحِكْمَةٍ، وَكَانَ دَانِيآلُ فَهِيمًا بِكُلِّ ٱلرُّؤَى وَٱلْأَحْلَامِ. | ١٧ 17 |
And [as for] these four children, God gave them understanding and prudence in all learning and wisdom: and Daniel had understanding in all visions and dreams.
| وَعِنْدَ نِهَايَةِ ٱلْأَيَّامِ ٱلَّتِي قَالَ ٱلْمَلِكُ أَنْ يُدْخِلُوهُمْ بَعْدَهَا، أَتَى بِهِمْ رَئِيسُ ٱلْخِصْيَانِ إِلَى أَمَامِ نَبُوخَذْنَاصَّرَ، | ١٨ 18 |
And at the end of the days, [after] which the king had given orders to bring them in, then the chief of the eunuchs brought them in before Nabuchodonosor.
| وَكَلَّمَهُمُ ٱلْمَلِكُ فَلَمْ يُوجَدْ بَيْنَهُمْ كُلِّهِمْ مِثْلُ دَانِيآلَ وَحَنَنْيَا وَمِيشَائِيلَ وَعَزَرْيَا. فَوَقَفُوا أَمَامَ ٱلْمَلِكِ. | ١٩ 19 |
And the king spoke with them; and there were not found out of them all any like Daniel, and Ananias, and Misael, and Azarias: and they stood before the king.
| وَفِي كُلِّ أَمْرِ حِكْمَةِ فَهْمٍ ٱلَّذِي سَأَلَهُمْ عَنْهُ ٱلْمَلِكُ وَجَدَهُمْ عَشَرَةَ أَضْعَافٍ فَوْقَ كُلِّ ٱلْمَجُوسِ وَٱلسَّحَرَةِ ٱلَّذِينَ فِي كُلِّ مَمْلَكَتِهِ. | ٢٠ 20 |
And in every matter of wisdom and knowledge wherein the king questioned them, he found them ten times wiser than all the enchanters and sorcerers that were in all his kingdom.
| وَكَانَ دَانِيآلُ إِلَى ٱلسَّنَةِ ٱلْأُولَى لِكُورَشَ ٱلْمَلِكِ. | ٢١ 21 |
And Daniel continued till the first year of king Cyrus.
