دَانِيآل 6
| حَسُنَ عِنْدَ دَارِيُّوسَ أَنْ يُوَلِّيَ عَلَى ٱلْمَمْلَكَةِ مِئَةً وَعِشْرِينَ مَرْزُبَانًا يَكُونُونَ عَلَى ٱلْمَمْلَكَةِ كُلِّهَا. | ١ 1 |
It pleased Darius to set over the kingdom one hundred twenty local governors, who should be throughout the whole kingdom;
| وَعَلَى هَؤُلَاءِ ثَلَاثَةَ وُزَرَاءَ أَحَدُهُمْ دَانِيآلُ، لِتُؤَدِّيَ ٱلْمَرَازِبَةُ إِلَيْهِمِ ٱلْحِسَابَ فَلَا تُصِيبَ ٱلْمَلِكَ خَسَارَةٌ. | ٢ 2 |
and over them three presidents, of whom Daniel was one, that these local governors might give account to them, and that the king should suffer no loss.
| فَفَاقَ دَانِيآلُ هَذَا عَلَى ٱلْوُزَرَاءِ وَٱلْمَرَازِبَةِ، لِأَنَّ فِيهِ رُوحًا فَاضِلَةً. وَفَكَّرَ ٱلْمَلِكُ فِي أَنْ يُوَلِّيَهُ عَلَى ٱلْمَمْلَكَةِ كُلِّهَا. | ٣ 3 |
Then this Daniel was distinguished above the presidents and the local governors, because an excellent spirit was in him; and the king thought to set him over the whole realm.
| ثُمَّ إِنَّ ٱلْوُزَرَاءَ وَٱلْمَرَازِبَةَ كَانُوا يَطْلُبُونَ عِلَّةً يَجِدُونَهَا عَلَى دَانِيآلَ مِنْ جِهَةِ ٱلْمَمْلَكَةِ، فَلَمْ يَقْدِرُوا أَنْ يَجِدُوا عِلَّةً وَلَا ذَنْبًا، لِأَنَّهُ كَانَ أَمِينًا وَلَمْ يُوجَدْ فِيهِ خَطَأٌ وَلَا ذَنْبٌ. | ٤ 4 |
Then the presidents and the local governors sought to find occasion against Daniel as touching the kingdom; but they could find no occasion or fault, because he was faithful. There wasn’t any error or fault found in him.
| فَقَالَ هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلرِّجَالُ: «لَا نَجِدُ عَلَى دَانِيآلَ هَذَا عِلَّةً إِلَّا أَنْ نَجِدَهَا مِنْ جِهَةِ شَرِيعَةِ إِلَهِهِ». | ٥ 5 |
Then these men said, “We won’t find any occasion against this Daniel, unless we find it against him concerning the law of his God.”
| حِينَئِذٍ ٱجْتَمَعَ هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلْوُزَرَاءُ وَٱلْمَرَازِبَةُ عِنْدَ ٱلْمَلِكِ وَقَالُوا لَهُ هَكَذَا: «أَيُّهَا ٱلْمَلِكُ دَارِيُوسُ، عِشْ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ! | ٦ 6 |
Then these presidents and local governors assembled together to the king, and said this to him, “King Darius, live forever!
| إِنَّ جَمِيعَ وُزَرَاءِ ٱلْمَمْلَكَةِ وَٱلشِّحَنِ وَٱلْمَرَازِبَةِ وَٱلْمُشِيرِينَ وَٱلْوُلَاةِ قَدْ تَشَاوَرُوا عَلَى أَنْ يَضَعُوا أَمْرًا مَلَكِيًّا وَيُشَدِّدُوا نَهْيًا، بِأَنَّ كُلَّ مَنْ يَطْلُبُ طِلْبَةً حَتَّى ثَلَاثِينَ يَوْمًا مِنْ إِلَهٍ أَوْ إِنْسَانٍ إِلَّا مِنْكَ أَيُّهَا ٱلْمَلِكُ، يُطْرَحُ فِي جُبِّ ٱلْأُسُودِ. | ٧ 7 |
All the presidents of the kingdom, the deputies and the local governors, the counselors and the governors, have consulted together to establish a royal statute and to make a strong decree, that whoever asks a petition of any god or man for thirty days, except of you, O king, he shall be cast into the den of lions.
| فَثَبِّتِ ٱلْآنَ ٱلنَّهْيَ أَيُّهَا ٱلْمَلِكُ، وَأَمْضِ ٱلْكِتَابَةَ لِكَيْ لَا تَتَغَيَّرَ كَشَرِيعَةِ مَادِي وَفَارِسَ ٱلَّتِي لَا تُنْسَخُ». | ٨ 8 |
Now, O king, establish the decree and sign the writing, that it not be changed, according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which doesn’t alter.”
| لِأَجْلِ ذَلِكَ أَمْضَى ٱلْمَلِكُ دَارِيُوسُ ٱلْكِتَابَةَ وَٱلنَّهْيَ. | ٩ 9 |
Therefore King Darius signed the writing and the decree.
| فَلَمَّا عَلِمَ دَانِيآلُ بِإِمْضَاءِ ٱلْكِتَابَةِ ذَهَبَ إِلَى بَيْتِهِ، وَكُواهُ مَفْتُوحَةٌ فِي عُلِّيَّتِهِ نَحْوَ أُورُشَلِيمَ، فَجَثَا عَلَى رُكْبَتَيْهِ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ فِي ٱلْيَوْمِ، وَصَلَّى وَحَمَدَ قُدَّامَ إِلَهِهِ كَمَا كَانَ يَفْعَلُ قَبْلَ ذَلِكَ. | ١٠ 10 |
When Daniel knew that the writing was signed, he went into his house (now his windows were open in his room toward Jerusalem) and he kneeled on his knees three times a day, and prayed, and gave thanks before his God, as he did before.
| فَٱجْتَمَعَ حِينَئِذٍ هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلرِّجَالُ فَوَجَدُوا دَانِيآلَ يَطْلُبُ وَيَتَضَرَّعُ قُدَّامَ إِلَهِهِ. | ١١ 11 |
Then these men assembled together, and found Daniel making petition and supplication before his God.
| فَتَقَدَّمُوا وَتَكَلَّمُوا قُدَّامَ ٱلْمَلِكِ فِي نَهْيِ ٱلْمَلِكِ: «أَلَمْ تُمْضِ أَيُّهَا ٱلْمَلِكُ نَهْيًا بِأَنَّ كُلَّ إِنْسَانٍ يَطْلُبُ مِنْ إِلَهٍ أَوْ إِنْسَانٍ حَتَّى ثَلَاثِينَ يَوْمًا إِلَّا مِنْكَ أَيُّهَا ٱلْمَلِكُ يُطْرَحُ فِي جُبِّ ٱلْأُسُودِ؟» فَأَجَابَ ٱلْمَلِكُ وَقَالَ: «ٱلْأَمْرُ صَحِيحٌ كَشَرِيعَةِ مَادِي وَفَارِسَ ٱلَّتِي لَا تُنْسَخُ». | ١٢ 12 |
Then they came near, and spoke before the king concerning the king’s decree: “Haven’t you signed a decree that every man who makes a petition to any god or man within thirty days, except to you, O king, shall be cast into the den of lions?” The king answered, “This thing is true, according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which doesn’t alter.”
| حِينَئِذٍ أَجَابُوا وَقَالُوا قُدَّامَ ٱلْمَلِكِ: «إِنَّ دَانِيآلَ ٱلَّذِي مِنْ بَنِي سَبْيِ يَهُوذَا لَمْ يَجْعَلْ لَكَ أَيُّهَا ٱلْمَلِكُ ٱعْتِبَارًا وَلَا لِلنَّهْيِ ٱلَّذِي أَمْضَيْتَهُ، بَلْ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ فِي ٱلْيَوْمِ يَطْلُبُ طِلْبَتَهُ». | ١٣ 13 |
Then they answered and said before the king, “That Daniel, who is of the children of the captivity of Judah, doesn’t respect you, O king, nor the decree that you have signed, but makes his petition three times a day.”
| فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ ٱلْمَلِكُ هَذَا ٱلْكَلَامَ ٱغْتَاظَ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ جِدًّا، وَجَعَلَ قَلْبَهُ عَلَى دَانِيآلَ لِيُنَجِّيَهُ، وَٱجْتَهَدَ إِلَى غُرُوبِ ٱلشَّمْسِ لِيُنْقِذَهُ. | ١٤ 14 |
Then the king, when he heard these words, was very displeased, and set his heart on Daniel to deliver him; and he labored until the going down of the sun to rescue him.
| فَٱجْتَمَعَ أُولَئِكَ ٱلرِّجَالُ إِلَى ٱلْمَلِكِ وَقَالُوا لِلْمَلِكِ: «ٱعْلَمْ أَيُّهَا ٱلْمَلِكُ أَنَّ شَرِيعَةَ مَادِي وَفَارِسَ هِيَ أَنَّ كُلَّ نَهْيٍ أَوْ أَمْرٍ يَضَعُهُ ٱلْمَلِكُ لَا يَتَغَيَّرُ». | ١٥ 15 |
Then these men assembled together to the king, and said to the king, “Know, O king, that it is a law of the Medes and Persians, that no decree nor statute which the king establishes may be changed.”
| حِينَئِذٍ أَمَرَ ٱلْمَلِكُ فَأَحْضَرُوا دَانِيآلَ وَطَرَحُوهُ فِي جُبِّ ٱلْأُسُودِ. أَجَابَ ٱلْمَلِكُ وَقَالَ لِدَانِيآلَ: «إِنَّ إِلَهَكَ ٱلَّذِي تَعْبُدُهُ دَائِمًا هُوَ يُنَجِّيكَ». | ١٦ 16 |
Then the king commanded, and they brought Daniel and cast him into the den of lions. The king spoke and said to Daniel, “Your God whom you serve continually, he will deliver you.”
| وَأُتِيَ بِحَجَرٍ وَوُضِعَ عَلَى فَمِ ٱلْجُبِّ وَخَتَمَهُ ٱلْمَلِكُ بِخَاتِمِهِ وَخَاتِمِ عُظَمَائِهِ، لِئَلَّا يَتَغَيَّرَ ٱلْقَصْدُ فِي دَانِيآلَ. | ١٧ 17 |
A stone was brought, and laid on the mouth of the den; and the king sealed it with his own signet, and with the signet of his lords; that nothing might be changed concerning Daniel.
| حِينَئِذٍ مَضَى ٱلْمَلِكُ إِلَى قَصْرِهِ وَبَاتَ صَائِمًا، وَلَمْ يُؤْتَ قُدَّامَهُ بِسَرَارِيهِ وَطَارَ عَنْهُ نَوْمُهُ. | ١٨ 18 |
Then the king went to his palace, and passed the night fasting. No musical instruments were brought before him; and his sleep fled from him.
| ثُمَّ قَامَ ٱلْمَلِكُ بَاكِرًا عِنْدَ ٱلْفَجْرِ وَذَهَبَ مُسْرِعًا إِلَى جُبِّ ٱلْأُسُودِ. | ١٩ 19 |
Then the king arose very early in the morning, and went in haste to the den of lions.
| فَلَمَّا ٱقْتَرَبَ إِلَى ٱلْجُبِّ نَادَى دَانِيآلَ بِصَوْتٍ أَسِيفٍ. أَجَابَ ٱلْمَلِكُ وَقَالَ لِدَانِيآلَ: «يَا دَانِيآلُ عَبْدَ ٱللهِ ٱلْحَيِّ، هَلْ إِلَهُكَ ٱلَّذِي تَعْبُدُهُ دَائِمًا قَدِرَ عَلَى أَنْ يُنَجِّيَكَ مِنَ ٱلْأُسُودِ؟» | ٢٠ 20 |
When he came near to the den to Daniel, he cried with a troubled voice. The king spoke and said to Daniel, “Daniel, servant of the living God, is your God, whom you serve continually, able to deliver you from the lions?”
| فَتَكَلَّمَ دَانِيآلُ مَعَ ٱلْمَلِكِ: «يَا أَيُّهَا ٱلْمَلِكُ، عِشْ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ! | ٢١ 21 |
Then Daniel said to the king, “O king, live forever!
| إِلَهِي أَرْسَلَ مَلَاكَهُ وَسَدَّ أَفْوَاهَ ٱلْأُسُودِ فَلَمْ تَضُرَّنِي، لِأَنِّي وُجِدْتُ بَرِيئًا قُدَّامَهُ، وَقُدَّامَكَ أَيْضًا أَيُّهَا ٱلْمَلِكُ، لَمْ أَفْعَلْ ذَنْبًا». | ٢٢ 22 |
My God has sent his angel, and has shut the lions’ mouths, and they have not hurt me, because innocence was found in me before him; and also before you, O king, I have done no harm.”
| حِينَئِذٍ فَرِحَ ٱلْمَلِكُ بِهِ، وَأَمَرَ بِأَنْ يُصْعَدَ دَانِيآلُ مِنَ ٱلْجُبِّ. فَأُصْعِدَ دَانِيآلُ مِنَ ٱلْجُبِّ وَلَمْ يُوجَدْ فِيهِ ضَرَرٌ، لِأَنَّهُ آمَنَ بِإِلَهِهِ. | ٢٣ 23 |
Then the king was exceedingly glad, and commanded that they should take Daniel up out of the den. So Daniel was taken up out of the den, and no kind of harm was found on him, because he had trusted in his God.
| فَأَمَرَ ٱلْمَلِكُ فَأَحْضَرُوا أُولَئِكَ ٱلرِّجَالَ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱشْتَكَوْا عَلَى دَانِيآلَ وَطَرَحُوهُمْ فِي جُبِّ ٱلْأُسُودِ هُمْ وَأَوْلَادَهُمْ وَنِسَاءَهُمْ. وَلَمْ يَصِلُوا إِلَى أَسْفَلِ ٱلْجُبِّ حَتَّى بَطَشَتْ بِهِمِ ٱلْأُسُودُ وَسَحَقَتْ كُلَّ عِظَامِهِمْ. | ٢٤ 24 |
The king commanded, and they brought those men who had accused Daniel, and they cast them into the den of lions—them, their children, and their wives; and the lions mauled them, and broke all their bones in pieces before they came to the bottom of the den.
| ثُمَّ كَتَبَ ٱلْمَلِكُ دَارِيُّوسُ إِلَى كُلِّ ٱلشُّعُوبِ وَٱلْأُمَمِ وَٱلْأَلْسِنَةِ ٱلسَّاكِنِينَ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ كُلِّهَا: «لِيَكْثُرْ سَلَامُكُمْ. | ٢٥ 25 |
Then King Darius wrote to all the peoples, nations, and languages who dwell in all the earth: “Peace be multiplied to you.
| مِنْ قِبَلِي صَدَرَ أَمْرٌ بِأَنَّهُ فِي كُلِّ سُلْطَانِ مَمْلَكَتِي يَرْتَعِدُونَ وَيَخَافُونَ قُدَّامَ إِلَهِ دَانِيآلَ، لِأَنَّهُ هُوَ ٱلْإِلَهُ ٱلْحَيُّ ٱلْقَيُّومُ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ، وَمَلَكُوتُهُ لَنْ يَزُولَ وَسُلْطَانُهُ إِلَى ٱلْمُنْتَهَى. | ٢٦ 26 |
“I make a decree that in all the dominion of my kingdom men tremble and fear before the God of Daniel. “For he is the living God, and steadfast forever. His kingdom is that which will not be destroyed. His dominion will be even to the end.
| هُوَ يُنَجِّي وَيُنْقِذُ وَيَعْمَلُ ٱلْآيَاتِ وَٱلْعَجَائِبَ فِي ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ وَفِي ٱلْأَرْضِ. هُوَ ٱلَّذِي نَجَّى دَانِيآلَ مِنْ يَدِ ٱلْأُسُودِ». | ٢٧ 27 |
He delivers and rescues. He works signs and wonders in heaven and in earth, who has delivered Daniel from the power of the lions.”
| فَنَجَحَ دَانِيآلُ هَذَا فِي مُلْكِ دَارِيُّوسَ وَفِي مُلْكِ كُورَشَ ٱلْفَارِسِيِّ. | ٢٨ 28 |
So this Daniel prospered in the reign of Darius and in the reign of Cyrus the Persian.
