Da:niele 4

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, unto all peoples, nations, and languages, 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.

It hath seemed good unto me to declare the signs and wonders that God Most High hath wrought toward me.

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.

How great are His signs! and how mighty are His wonders! His kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and His dominion is 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 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 which made me afraid; and imaginings upon my bed and the visions of my head affrighted 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.

Therefore made I a decree to bring in all the wise men of Babylon before me, that they might make known unto 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 magicians, the enchanters, the Chaldeans, and the astrologers; and I told the dream before them; but they did not make known unto 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,

But at the last Daniel came in before me, whose name was Belteshazzar, according to the name of my god, and in whom is 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.

O Belteshazzar, master of the magicians, because I know that the spirit of the holy gods is in thee, and no secret causeth thee trouble, tell me the visions of my dream that I have seen, and the interpretation thereof.

10 Na da golai simasia agoane ba: i. Na ba: loba ifa sedade lelebe ba: i. E da osobo bagade dogoa amo ganodini lelu.

Thus were the visions of my head upon my bed: I saw, and behold a tree in the midst of the earth, and the height thereof was 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 grew, and was strong, and the height thereof reached unto heaven, and the sight thereof to the end 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.

The leaves thereof were fair, and the fruit thereof much, and in it was food for all; the beasts of the field had shadow under it, and the fowls of the heaven dwelt in the branches thereof, and all flesh was fed 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 visions 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: Hew down the tree, and cut off its branches, shake off its leaves, and scatter its fruit; let the beasts get away from under it, and the fowls 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, even in a band of iron and brass, in the tender grass of the field; and let it be wet with the dew of heaven, and let his portion be with the 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 unto 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.

The matter is by the decree of the watchers, and the sentence by the word of the holy ones; to the intent that the living may know that the Most High ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever He will, and setteth up over it the lowest of men.

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.

This dream I king Nebuchadnezzar have seen; and thou, O Belteshazzar, declare the interpretation, forasmuch as all the wise men of my kingdom are not able to make known unto me the interpretation; but thou art able, for 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 Belteshazzar, was appalled for a while, and his thoughts affrighted him. The king spoke and said: 'Belteshazzar, let not the dream, or the interpretation, affright thee.' Belteshazzar answered and said: 'My lord, the dream be to them that hate thee, and the interpretation thereof to thine adversaries.

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 thou sawest, which grew, and was strong, whose height reached unto the heaven, and the sight thereof to all the 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.

whose leaves were fair, and the fruit thereof much, and in it was food for all; under which the beasts of the field dwelt, and upon whose branches the fowls of the heaven had their habitation;

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, that art grown and become strong; for thy greatness is grown, and reacheth unto heaven, and thy dominion to the end 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 coming down from heaven, and saying: Hew down the tree, and destroy it; nevertheless leave the stump of the roots thereof in the earth, even in a band of iron and brass, in the tender grass of the field; and let it be wet with the dew of heaven, and let his portion be with the beasts of the field, 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, O king, and it is the decree 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.

that thou shalt be driven from men, and thy dwelling shall be with the beasts of the field, and thou shalt be made to eat grass as oxen, and shalt be wet with the dew of heaven, 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.

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.

And whereas it was commanded to leave the stump of the roots of the tree, thy kingdom shall be sure unto thee, after that thou shalt have known that the heavens do rule.

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 unto thee, and break off thy sins by almsgiving, and thine iniquities by showing mercy to the poor; if there may be a lengthening of thy prosperity.'

28 Fa: no, amo hou huludafa da hina bagade Nebiuga: denese ema doaga: i.

All this came upon the king Nebuchadnezzar.

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 upon the royal 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.”

The king spoke, and said: 'Is not this great Babylon, which I have built for a royal dwelling-place, by the might of my power and for the glory of my majesty?'

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.

While the word was in the king's mouth, there fell a voice from heaven: 'O king Nebuchadnezzar, to thee it is spoken: the kingdom is departed 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 thou shalt be driven from men, and thy dwelling shall be with the beasts of the field; thou shalt be made to eat grass as oxen, and seven times shall pass over thee; until 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 was the thing fulfilled upon Nebuchadnezzar; and he was driven from men, and did eat grass as oxen, and his body was wet with the dew of heaven, till his hair was grown like eagles' feathers, 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.

'And at the end of the days I Nebuchadnezzar lifted up mine eyes unto heaven, and mine understanding returned unto me, and I blessed the Most High, and I praised and honoured Him that liveth for ever; for His dominion is an everlasting dominion, and His kingdom 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; and He doeth according to His will in the host of heaven, and among the inhabitants of the earth; and none can stay His hand, or say unto Him: What doest Thou?

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 mine understanding returned unto me; and for the glory of my kingdom, my majesty and my splendour returned unto me; and my ministers and my lords sought unto me; and I was established in my kingdom, and surpassing greatness was added unto 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: !”

Now I Nebuchadnezzar praise and extol and honour the King of heaven; for all His works are truth, and His ways justice; and those that walk in pride He is able to abase.'
