1 Hina bagade Nebiuga: denese da dunu fifi asi gala amola sia: hisu hisu amola dunu huluane osobo bagadega esalu ilima sia: sia: negai agoane, “Na da dilima asigi sia: sia: sa!
Nebuchadnezzar, the king, to all peoples, nations, and languages, who dwell in the whole world, may peace be increased with you.
2 Nabima! Gode Gadodafa da nama musa: hame ba: su amola dawa: digima: ne olelesu gasa bagade hou amo nama olelei dagoi. Amo hou na da dilima olelemu.
The supreme God has accomplished signs and wonders with me. Therefore, it has pleased me to proclaim
3 Gode Gadodafa Ea hou da noga: idafa. E da musa: hame ba: su amola dawa: digima: ne olelesu gasa bagade hou hamonana. E da Hina Bagade. Ea Hinadafa Hou da eso huluane mae fisili dialalalumu.
his signs, which are great, and his wonders, which are mighty. For his kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and his power continues from generation to generation.
4 Na da Nebiuga: denese. Na da ni diasuga gebewane esalu. Na amola da na hawa: hamosu da defeadafa. Na da liligi bagade gaguiba: le, na da hahawane esalu.
I, Nebuchadnezzar, was content in my house and prospering in my palace.
5 Be gasi afadafaga na simasi amoga na da beda: i bagade galu.
I saw a dream that terrified me, and my thoughts on my bed and the visions in my head disturbed me.
6 Na da Ba: bilone amo ganodini bagade dawa: su dunu huluane amo simasi ea bai nama olelema: ne, nama misa: ne sia: i.
And so a decree was established by me, that all of the wise men of Babylon should be brought in before me, and that they should reveal to me the answer to the dream.
7 Amaiba: le, bagade dawa: su dunu, ba: la: lusu dunu, nabi dunu, fefedoasu dunu amola gesami dasu dunu huluane ilia da nama oule misi. Na da na simasi amo ilima olelei. Be ilia da amo bai nama olelemu hamedei agoane ba: i.
Then the seers, the astrologers, the Chaldeans, and the soothsayers entered, and I explained about the dream in their presence, but they did not reveal its answer to me.
8 Fa: no, Da: niele da misi. Na da ema dio eno asuli amo Beledesia: sa. Go da na ‘gode’ amo ea dio sia: sa. Gode Ea A: silibu da ea dogo ganodini sali dagoi ba: i. Amaiba: le, na simasi amo na da ema adole i. Na da ema amane adoi,
And then their colleague came in before me, Daniel, (whose name is Belteshazzar according to the name of my god, ) who has the spirit of the holy gods within his very self, and I told the dream directly to him.
9 “Beledesia: sa! Di da bisili ba: la: lusu dunu. Hadigi Gode Ea A: silibu da dia dogo ganodini sali, amo na dawa: Di da wamolegei hou huluane dawa: Defea, wali na simasi hou nabima. Amola di da amo ea bai nama olelema.
Belteshazzar, leader of the seers, since I know that you have in you the spirit of the holy gods, and that no mystery is unreachable to you, explain to me the visions of my dreams, which I saw, and the solution to them.
10 Na da golai simasia agoane ba: i. Na ba: loba ifa sedade lelebe ba: i. E da osobo bagade dogoa amo ganodini lelu.
This was the vision of my head on my bed. I looked, and behold, a tree in the middle of the earth, and its height was exceedingly great.
11 Amo ifa da bagadedafa alele amola ea banuguma amo da heda: le muagadodafa amoga doaga: i ba: i. Amola osobo bagadega dunu fi ilia huluane sodosu.
The tree was great and strong, and its height reached up to heaven. It could be seen all the way to the ends of the entire earth.
12 Goe ifa da lubi huluanedafa da noga: idafa ba: i. Amola amo ea fage da bagohamedafa ba: i. Amola fage amo da osobo bagade dunu huluane nawene sadimu defele ba: i. Ohe sogega fi amo da misini ea ougiha helefisu. Amola sio fi da misini, ea amoda amoga bibisu amola liligi enoenoi ilia da misini, ea fage amo nasu.
Its leaves were very beautiful, and its fruit was very abundant, and in it was food for the whole world. Under it, animals and beasts were dwelling, and in its branches, the birds of the sky were sheltered, and from it, all flesh was fed.
13 Na da amo simasi goe dadawa: laloba, amola ba: loba da a: igele dunu da Hebene amoga dalebe ba: i. Amo a: igele da liligi huluane ouligisu dawa:
I saw in the vision of my head upon my blanket, and behold, a watcher and a holy one descended from heaven.
14 E da gasa bagade wei amo nabi, ‘Goe ifa gelele sa: ima: ne abima! Amalalu ea amoda dadamuma! Amola ea lubi amola ea fage huluane gilifuli fasima. Amola ea ougiha ohe fi go sefasima. Amola sio ea amodaga fi gala sefasima.
He cried out loudly, and he said this: “Cut down the tree and prune its branches; shake off its leaves and scatter its fruits; let flee the beasts, which are under it, and the birds from its branches.
15 Be ifa ea bai amo fawane yolesima. Amola amo ifa bai bulu agoai ouli amola balase amoga hamoi amoga idinigilisima. Amo ifa bai sogega gisi amola gilisili dialoma: ne yolesima. Amola oubi baea da amo dunuma sa: imu da defea. Amola e amola ohe fi gisiaga gilisili esaloma: mu.
Nevertheless, leave the stump of its roots in the earth, and let it be bound with a band of iron and brass among the plants, which are close by, and let it be touched by the dew of heaven, and let its place be with the wild animals among the plants of the earth.
16 E da ea asigi dawa: su fisili, ode fesuale amoga ohe fi ilia asigi dawa: su defele da ea dogo ganodini dialumu.
Let his heart be changed from being human, and let the heart of a wild animal be given to him, and let seven periods of time pass over him.
17 A: igele dunu ilia da eso huluane mae golale liligi huluane ba: lala. Ilia da amo hou waha sia: i amo ilegei dagoi. Bai dunu fifi asi gala huluane Baligisu Gode da gasa gala amola E da dunu huluanedafa ilima Hina esala, amo ilia da dawa: mu da defea. E da hina hou Hi hanaiga hamosa amola E da fi ouligisu hou eso enoga dunu afae amoga fadegalalu, Ea hanaiga eno dunu ilima (dunu bagade o fonobahadi Hi fawane dawa: ) ilima iaha,’ a: igele da amane sia: i.
This is the decree from the judgment of the watchers, and the decision and proclamation of the holy ones, until the living shall know that the Supreme One is ruler in the kingdom of men, and that he will give it to whomever he wills, and he will appoint the lowest man over it.”
18 Na da amo simasia ba: i. Defea, wali Beledesia: sa, di da amo simasi bai amo nama adole ima. Na fada: i sia: su ouligisu dunu huluane da nama amo ea bai olelemu hamedeiwane ba: i. Be Gode Ea A: silibu da dia dogo ganodini aligila sa: i dagoiba: le, di da na simasia bai nama olelemusa: dawa: ,” Nebiuga: denese da amane sia: i.
I, king Nebuchadnezzar, saw this dream. And so you, Belteshazzar, must quickly explain to me the interpretation because all the wise men of my kingdom are not able to declare the meaning of it to me. But you are able because the spirit of the holy gods is in you.
19 Amo sia: nababeba: le, Da: niele (ea eno dio da Beledesia: sa) e da fofogadigili beda: iba: le, bu adole imunu gogolei. Be Nebiuga: denese da ema amane sia: i, “Di amo simasi amola ea bai nababeba: le, mae beda: ma!” Beledesia: sa da bu adole i, “Hina bagade! Goe simasi ea hou amola ea bai da dima ha lai dunu ilima doaga: mu da defea galu.
Then Daniel, whose name was Belteshazzar, began silently to think within himself for about one hour, and his thoughts troubled him. But the king responded, saying, “Belteshazzar, do not let the dream and its interpretation disturb you.” Belteshazzar answered and said, “My lord, the dream is for those who hate you, and its interpretation may be for your enemies.
20 Dia ifa afae bagade ba: i. Amo ea banuguma da mu amoga doaga: idafa ba: i amola osobo bagade fi dunu huluane amo ba: i.
The tree that you saw was lofty and strong; its height reached toward heaven, and it could be seen throughout the whole world.
21 Goe ifa da lubi huluanedafa da noga: idafa ba: i. Amola amo ea fage da bagohamedafa ba: i. Amola fage amo da osobo bagade dunu huluane nawane sadimu defele ba: i. Ohe sogega fi amo da misini ea ougiha helefisu. Amola sio fi da misini, ea amoda, amoga bibisu amola liligi enoenoi ilia da misini, ea fage amo nasu.
And its branches were very beautiful, and its fruit very abundant, and in it was food for all. Under it, dwelt the beasts of the field, and in its branches, the birds of the air stayed.
22 Hina bagade! Amo ifa fedege da difawane. Dia gasa da bagade heda: iba: le, fedege agoane muagado doaga: i dagoi. Di da osobo bagade dunu huludafa ouligisa.
It is you, O king, who has been greatly esteemed, and you have grown strong. And you have increased your power, and it reaches towards heaven, and your rule is to the ends of the whole earth.
23 Dia simasi amo ganodini amane ba: i. Amola dia ba: i a: igele dunu da Hebene amoga dalebe ba: i. Amo a: igele da liligi huluane ouligisu dawa: E da gasa bagade wei agoane nabi, ‘Goe ifa gelele sa: ima: ne abima. Amalalu ea amoda amola dadamuma! Amola ea lubi amola ea fage huluane gilifuli fasima. Amola ea ougiha ohe fi go sefasima. Amola sio ea amodaga fi go sefasima. Be ifa ea bai amo fawane yolesima. Amola amo ifa bai bulu agoai ouli amola balase amoga hamoi amoga idiniginisima. Amo ifa bai sogega gisi amola gilisili dialoma: ne yolesima. Amola oubi baea da amo dunuma sa: imu da defea. Amola e amola ohe fi gisiaga esalumu da defea. E da ea asigi dawa: su fisili, ode fesuale amoga ohe fi ilia asigi dawa: su defele da ea dogo ganodini dialumu,’ a: igele da amane sia: i.
Yet the king also saw a watcher and a holy one descend from heaven and say: ‘Cut down the tree and scatter it; however, leave the stump of its roots in the earth, and let it be bound with iron and brass, among the surrounding plants, and let it be sprinkled with the dew of heaven, and let his feeding be with the wild beasts, until seven periods of time pass over him.’
24 Hina bagade! Goe simasi ea bai da agoane. Gode Gadodafa da fa: no dima misunu hou olelei dagoi.
This is the interpretation of the judgment of the Most High, which has reached my lord, the king.
25 Di da dunu amola uda ilia gilisisu amoga sefasi dagoi ba: mu. Amola di da asili ohe sogega di amola ohe fi da gilisili esalumu. Amola di da bulamagau agoane gisi nanumu. Amola di da hamega gadili golamu amola oubi baea da di da: iya sa: imu. Di da amanewane ode fesuale esalumu. Amalalu di da Gode Gadodafa amo da fifi asi gala ilima Hinadafa esalebe, amo di da dafawaneyale dawa: mu. Amola E da hina hou Hi hanaiga hamosa amola E da fi ouligisu hou eso enoga dunu afae amoga fadegalalu, Ea hanaiga eno dunu ilima (dunu bagade o fonobahadi Hi fawane dawa: ) ilima iaha, amo di da dawa: mu.
They will expel you from among men, and your dwelling will be with the beasts and the wild animals, and you will eat hay like an ox, and you will be drenched with the dew of heaven. Likewise, seven periods of time will pass over you, until you know that the Supreme One rules over the kingdom of men, and he gives it to whomever he wills.
26 Dia da a: igele ea adobe amo nabi dagoi. E da ifa bai amo da osoba amoga: iwane dialumu sia: i. Amo bai da agoane. Di da Gode Hifawane da osobo bagade fifi asi gala amola liligi huluanedafa ouligisa, amo dafawaneyale dawa: lalu, defea, di da bu hina bagade dunu hamomu.
But, since he commanded that the stump of its roots, that is, of the tree, should be left behind, your kingdom will be left for you, after you have realized that power is from divinity.
27 Amaiba: le, hina bagade! Na dima adoi amo di nabima. Wadela: i hou amo fisima. Di da moloidafa hou fawane hamoma. Amola nowa dunu liligi hamedei galea dia fidima. Amalalu, dia da bagade gaguiwane wali dia gagui defele ba: mu,” Da: niele da amane sia: i.
Because of this, O king, let my counsel be acceptable to you. And redeem your sins with alms, and your iniquities with mercy towards the poor. Perhaps he will forgive your offenses.”
28 Fa: no, amo hou huludafa da hina bagade Nebiuga: denese ema doaga: i.
All these things came upon king Nebuchadnezzar.
29 Ode afae da gidigilalu, eso afaega e da asili diasu Ba: bilone ganodini amo ea gadodili fila ahoasu amoga ahoanoba,
After the end of twelve months, he was taking a walk in the palace of Babylon.
30 e amane sia: i, “Ba: bilone moilai bai bagade da bagade amola bisili noga: idafa. Amo moilai bai bagade nisu na hadigi amola na gasa amola na baligisu hou amo dunu huluane ba: ma: ne amola nama nodoma: ne, nisu da gagui dagoi.”
And the king spoke out loud, saying, “Isn’t this the great Babylon, which I have built, as the home of the kingdom, by the strength of my power and in the glory of my excellence?”
31 Ea sia: ne gabe galu, Hebene amoga sia: afae misini amane nabi, “Hina bagade, Nebiuga: denese! Dia na sia: nabima! Gode da dia gasa bagade ouligisu hou amo dima fadegai dagoi.
And while the words were still in the king’s mouth, a voice rushed down from heaven, “To you, O king Nebuchadnezzar, it is said: ‘Your kingdom will be taken away from you,
32 Di da dunu amola uda ilia gilisisu amoga sefasi dagoi ba: mu. Amola di da asili ohe sogega di amola ohe fi da gilisili esalumu. Amola di da bulamagau agoane gisi nanumu. Amola di da hamega gadili golamu amola oubi baea da di da: iya sa: imu. Di da amanewane ode fesuale esalumu. Amalalu di da Gode Gadodafa amo da fifi asi gala ilima Hinadafa esalebe, amo di da dafawaneyale dawa: mu. Amola E da Hina: hou Hi hanaiga hamosa amola E da fi ouligisu hou eso enoga dunu afae amoga fadegalalu, Ea hanaiga eno dunu ilima (dunu bagade o fonobahadi Hi fawane dawa: ) ilima iaha, amo di da dawa: mu!”
and they will expel you from among men, and your dwelling will be with the beasts and the wild animals. You will eat hay like an ox, and seven times will pass over you, until you know that the Supreme One rules in the kingdom of men, and he gives it to whomever he wills.’”
33 Hedolodafa, a:igele ea sia: i defele, amo hou da doaga: i dagoi. Nebiuga: denese da dunu amola uda amo ilia gilisisu amoga sefasi dagoi ba: i. E da bulamagau agoane, gisi nanu. Oubi baea da ea da: i da: iya sa: i amola ea hinabo da sedagili buhiba ea hinabo defele ba: i amola ea ifi sewe go da ma: ni amo ea ifi agoai ba: i.
The same hour, the sentence was fulfilled upon Nebuchadnezzar, and he was driven away from among men, and he ate hay like an ox, and his body was drenched with the dew of heaven, until his hair increased like the feathers of eagles, and his nails like those of birds.
34 Nebiuga: denese da amane sia: i, “Amalalu, ode fesuale amo gidigili, na da mu amoga ba: le gadole, na asigi dawa: su da bu noga: i misi. Amanoba, na da Gode Gadodafa Ema nodoi. Na hahawane bagadeba: le, Ea hadigi Dio amo nodone gagui gadoi, amane, ‘Hina Gode Bagadedafa da eso huluane Hinawane ouligilalumu.
Therefore, at the end of these days, I, Nebuchadnezzar, lifted up my eyes to heaven, and my mind was restored to me. And I blessed the Most High, and I praised and glorified him who lives forever. For his power is an everlasting power, and his kingdom is from generation to generation.
35 E da osobo bagade dunu huluane ouligisa. Amola E da Ea ouligibi amo da liligi fonobahadi agoane ba: sa. Amola E da a: igele fi dunu amola osobo bagade fi dunu huluane ouligisa. E da liligi afae hamomusa: sia: nanu dunu enoga Ea logo hame ga: mu. Amola ea sia: i amo da enoga hame gua: ne fasimu.’
And all the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing before him. For he acts according to his own will, with the inhabitants of the earth just as with the holy inhabitants of heaven. And there is no one who can resist his hand, or say to him, “Why have you done this?”
36 Na doulasi fisi dagoi ba: loba, Gode da na musa: ouligisu hou amola na hadigi amola na gasa nama bu i. Na fidisu dunu amola na eagene dunu da na hahawane bu yosia: i. Amola na hadigi gasa bu lai da na musa: hadigi amo baligili ba: i.
At the same time, my mind returned to me, and I arrived at the honor and glory of my kingdom. And my appearance was given back to me. And my nobles and my magistrates needed me. And I was restored to my kingdom, and even greater majesty was added to me.
37 Amaiba: le, wali, na Nebiuga: denese, na da hahawane bagade Gode Hebene amo ganodini esalebe amoma, na da Ea Dio gaguia gadosa. E da eso huluane moloidafa fawane hamosa. Amola E da nowa dunu hina: dio gaguia gadosa amola gasa fi hamosa, E da amo dunu bu fonobomusa: dawa: !”
Therefore I, Nebuchadnezzar, now praise, and magnify, and glorify the King of heaven, because all his works and the judgments of his way are true, and those who go forth in arrogance, he is able to bring low.
