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!
Nabuchodonosor the king, to all peoples, nations, and tongues, that dwell in all the earth, peace be multiplied unto 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 most high God hath wrought signs and wonders toward me. It hath seemed good to me therefore to publish
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, because they are great: and his wonders, because they are mighty: and his kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, I and his power to all generations.
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, Nabuchodonosor, was at rest in my house, and flourishing in my palace:
5 Be gasi afadafaga na simasi amoga na da beda: i bagade galu.
I saw a dream that affrighted me: and my thoughts in my bed, and the visions of my head troubled 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.
Then I set forth a decree, that all the wise men of Babylon should be brought in before me, and that they should shew me the interpretation of 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 came in the diviners, the wise men, the Chaldeans, and the soothsayers, and I told the dream before them: but they did not shew me the interpretation thereof:
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,
Till their colleague Daniel came in before me, whose name is Baltassar, according to the name of my god, who hath in him the spirit of the holy gods: and I told the dream before 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.
Baltassar, prince of the diviners, because I know that thou hast in thee the spirit of the holy gods, and that no secret is impossible to thee: tell me the visions of my dreams that I have seen, and the interpretation of 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 in my bed: I saw, and behold a tree in the midst of the earth, and the height thereof was exceeding 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 the height thereof reached unto heaven: the sight thereof was even to the ends of all the 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 most beautiful, and its fruit exceeding much: and in it was food for all: under it dwelt cattle, and beasts, and in the branches thereof the fowls of the air had their abode: and all flesh did eat of it.
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 bed, and behold a watcher, and a holy one came down 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 aloud, and said thus: Cut down the tree, and chop off the branches thereof: shake off its leaves, and scatter its fruits: let the beasts fly away that 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 tied with a band of iron, and of brass, among the grass, that is without, and let it be wet with the dew of heaven, and let its portion be with the wild beasts in the grass 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 man’s, and let a beast’s heart be given him; and let seven times 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 by the sentence of the watchers, and the word And demand of the holy ones; till the living know that the most High ruleth in the kingdom of men; and he will give it to whomsoever it shall please him, and he will appoint the basest 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 Nabuchodonosor saw this dream: thou, therefore, O Baltassar, tell me quickly the interpretation: for all the wise men of my kingdom axe not able to declare the meaning of it to me: but thou art able, because the spirit of the holy gods is in thee.
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 Baltassar, began silently to think within himself for about one hour: and his thoughts troubled him. But the king answering, said: Baltassar, let not the dream and the interpretation thereof trouble thee. Baltassar answered, and said: My lord, the dream be to them that hate thee, and the interpretation thereof to thy 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 which thou sawest which was high and strong, whose height reached to the skies, and the sight thereof into all tire earth:
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 the branches thereof were most beautiful, and its fruit exceeding much, and in it was food for all, under which the beasts of the field dwelt, and the birds of the air had their abode in its branches.
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 thou, O king, who art grown great and become mighty: for thy greatness hath grown, and hath reached to heaven, and thy power unto the ends of the 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.

And whereas the king saw a watcher, and a holy one come down from heaven, and say: Cut down the tree and destroy it, but leave the stump of the roots thereof in the earth, and let it be bound with iron and brass among the grass without, and let it be sprinkled with the dew of heaven, and let his feeding be with the wild beasts, till seven times 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 sentence of the most High, which is come upon 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 shall cast thee out from among men, and thy dwelling shall be with cattle and with wild beasts, and thou shalt eat grass as an ox, and shalt be wet with the dew of heaven: and seven times shall pass over thee, till thou know that the most High ruleth over the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will.
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 whereas he commanded, that the stump of the roots thereof, that is, of the tree, should be left: thy kingdom shall remain to thee after thou shalt have known that power is from heaven.
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.
Wherefore, O king, let my counsel be acceptable to thee, and redeem thou thy sins with alms, and thy iniquities with works of mercy to the poor: perhaps he will forgive thy offences.
28 Fa: no, amo hou huludafa da hina bagade Nebiuga: denese ema doaga: i.
All these things came upon king Nabuchodonosor.
29 Ode afae da gidigilalu, eso afaega e da asili diasu Ba: bilone ganodini amo ea gadodili fila ahoasu amoga ahoanoba,
At the end of twelve months he was walking 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 answered, and said: Is not this the great Babylon, which I have built to be the seat 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 word was yet in the king’s mouth, a voice came down from heaven: To thee, O king Nabuchodonosor, it is said: Thy kingdom shall pass from thee,
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 shall cast thee out from among men, and thy dwelling shall be with cattle and wild beasts: thou shalt eat grass like an ox, and seven times shall pass over thee, till thou know that the most High ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will.
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 word was fulfilled upon Nabuchodonosor, and he was driven away from among men, and did eat grass like an ox, and his body was wet with the dew of heaven: till his hairs grew like the feathers of eagles, and his nails like birds’ claws.
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.
Now at the end of the days, I Nabuchodonosor lifted up my eyes to heaven, and my sense was restored to me: and I blessed the most High, and I praised and glorified him that liveth for ever: for his power is an everlasting power, and his kingdom is to all generations.
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 doth according to his will, I as well with the powers of heaven, as among the inhabitants of the earth: and there is none that can resist his hand, and say to him: Why hast thou done it?
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 sense returned to me, and I came to the honour and glory of my kingdom: and my shape returned to me: and my nobles, and my magistrates sought for me, and I was restored to my kingdom: and 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 Nabuchodonosor do now praise, and magnify, and glorify the King of heaven: because all his works are true, and his ways judgments, and them that walk in pride he is able to abase.
