< Daniel 5 >
1 Kum sotthim jouvin, Belshazzar lengpa’n agamsung’a milen milal ho sangkhat toh, golvah loupitah khat abol in, chuleh amaho chutoh ju adonkhomuvin ahi.
Belshazzar the king made a great feast to a thousand of his lords, and drank wine before the thousand.
2 Belshezzar chun ju adon pum’in, apa Nebuchadnezzar in, Jerusalem Hou-in sunga kon’a anapohdoh sana leh dangka khon ho chu ju donna a man dingin thu apetai. Hiche khon ho chu, ajite leh athaikem ho chuleh milen milal hotoh ju donna-a nei ding ati ahi.
Belshazzar, while he tasted the wine, commanded to bring the golden and silver vessels which Nebuchadnezzar his father had taken out of the temple which was in Jerusalem; that the king and his lords, his wives and his secondary wives, might drink from them.
3 Chu in Jerusalem Pathen Hou-in sung’a kon’a kipodoh sana leh dangka khon ho chu ahin choi doh’un, lengpa leh ajite ho, athaikem ho, chuleh milen milal hon, ju donnan amang tauve.
Then they brought the gold and silver vessels that were taken out of the temple of the house of God which was at Jerusalem; and the king and his lords, his wives and his secondary wives, drank from them.
4 Hitichun, amahon sana leh dangka khon ho’a chun ju adon’un, chuleh sana, dangka, sum-eng leh thih’a kisemthu doilim pathen ho chu nasatah in avahchoi jeng tauvin ahi.
They drank wine, and praised the gods of gold, and of silver, of bronze, of iron, of wood, and of stone.
5 Hichepettah chun, amahon, leng inpi sung’a meivah khom tun nakom’abang kiloijol lai achun, mihem khut khat ahung kilah amu uvin, hiche khut jung chun bang’a lekhajem ahin jihtai. Hichu Lengpa ama tah in jong amutan ahi.
In the same hour came forth the fingers of a man's hand, and wrote over against the lampstand on the plaster of the wall of the king's palace: and the king saw the part of the hand that wrote.
6 Hichun lengpa maiso akikhel deltan, kichat leh tijat in alungsung alodimtan ahi. Atahsa aki thing in chuleh akhup leh akeng ho jong akihot lhu jeng tan ahi.
Then the king's face was turned pale, and his thoughts troubled him; and the joints of his thighs gave way, and his knees began knocking together.
7 Lengpa aping jah jeng in, ai-lhim them ho, ahsi-lekha them ho, vangsan them ho, a-ang sung’a ahin koukhom diuvin thupeh aboltai. Hichun Lengpa’n Babylon miching mithem ho jah’a chun asei tai. “Koi hijong leh, hiche lekha jem kijih hi asimdoh thei aum’a chuleh ipi kiseina ahi phongdoh thei aumleh, Leng inpi kijabolna ponsandup kisilpeh ding chuleh angong’a sana-khivui ki opeh ding ahi. Chuleh ama chu, ka lenggam sung’a vaipoh luboh thum channa-a ka pansah ding ahi” ati.
The king cried aloud to bring in the enchanters, the Chaldeans, and the diviners. The king spoke and said to the wise men of Babylon, "Whoever shall read this writing, and show me its interpretation, shall be clothed with purple, and have a chain of gold about his neck, and shall be the third ruler in the kingdom."
8 Chuin alenggam sung’a miching mithem ho chu ahungkhom soh tauve. Ahivang in, bang’a kisun lekhajem chu alah’uva khat beh in jong asimthei pouvin, chuleh ipi kiseina ham jong ahedoh thei pouve.
Then came in all the king's wise men; but they could not read the writing, nor make known to the king the interpretation.
9 Chuin Lengpa chu atija lheh jengin, amaiso kikhel leuvin akichatan ahi. Chuleh ama noija milen milal ho jong chu alung dong gamtauvin ahi.
Then was king Belshazzar greatly troubled, and his face turned pale, and his lords were perplexed.
10 Chuin hiche thilsoh chu, Lengnun ajah doh phat in, amatah lengpa golvah bolna insung’a alheilut loijin, lengpa jah’a aseitai.” Lengpa damsot in! Na lim na maiso kikhel leuvin, tija behseh hih in.
Now the queen by reason of the words of the king and his lords came into the banquet house. The queen spoke and said, "O king, live forever; do not let your thoughts trouble you, nor let your face be changed.
11 Na gamsung’a, Pathen theng lhagaovin achenden mi khat aum nai. Napa, Nebuchadnezzar khang’a jong hiche mipa chung’a hi, lung-mitvahna, thil hetkhenna leh Pathen ho chihna nei ahi, kimudohsa ahi. Hiche jeh’a chu napa Nebuchadnezzar lengpa’n, ama chu Babylon gamsung pumpia mitpheldoi them ho, ai-lhim them ho, ahsi-lekha them ho, chule vangsan them ho jouse chung’a pipu’a anapansah ahi.
There is a man in your kingdom, in whom is the spirit of the holy gods; and in the days of your father light and understanding and wisdom, like the wisdom of the gods, were found in him; and king Nebuchadnezzar your father, your father the king, made him chief of the magicians, enchanters, Chaldeans, and diviners;
12 Hiche mipa Daniel tiajong kihe, lengpan Belteshazzar asahpa chu, Pathen’a kon thil suhto themna nasatah nei, thuguh hetdoh theina leh hilchetna chuleh Pathen chihna dimset ahi. Aman mang aledoh theijin, chuleh thuboi hahsa jong asunavah thei jin ahi. Ama chu kouvin, aman bang’a kijih chu ipi ahi asim doh thei ding chuleh aledoh thei ding ahi” ati.
because an extraordinary spirit, and knowledge, and understanding to interpret dreams, explain riddles, and solve knotty problems were found in this Daniel, whom the king named Belteshazzar. Now let Daniel be called, and he will show the interpretation."
13 Chuin Daniel chu lengpa angsung’a ahin puilut tauve. Lengpan Daniel jah’a, “Nang hi, kapa Nebuchadnezzar lengpan Judah gam’a kon’a ahin kaimang sohchang ho lah’a khat, Daniel kitipa chu na him?
Then was Daniel brought in before the king. The king spoke and said to Daniel, "Are you that Daniel, who are of the children of the captivity of Judah, whom the king my father brought out of Judah?
14 Keiman, nachung’a Pathen theng lhagao achengin, nangman sunggil lungmitvah naneijin, thil hetkhenna chihna dimset naneije tithu kajai.
I have heard of you, that the spirit of the gods is in you, and that light and understanding and extraordinary wisdom are found in you.
15 Ka gam sung’a miching ho leh ailhim them hon, hiche bang’a kijih lekha jem hi asimthei louvu ahi tai. Tun nangin sim inlang, ipi kiseina ham nei seipeh tan.
Now the wise men, the enchanters, have been brought in before me, that they should read this writing, and make known to me its interpretation; but they could not show the interpretation of the thing.
16 Nang in hiche hohi aledoh theina nahen, chuleh thuboi hahsa hojong na sunavah theije tithu kana jai. Hijeh chun, hiche hohi sim inlang, ipi kiseina ham nei ledohpeh in, chutileh nangma leng inpi jabolna ponsandup nakisil peh ding, sana khivui nangong’a naki-opeh ding, chuteng ka lenggam sung’a vaihom sangpen athum na-a napan ding ahi,’’ ati.
But I have heard of you, that you can give interpretations, and solve problems. Now if you can read the writing, and make known to me its interpretation, you shall be clothed with purple, and have a chain of gold about your neck, and shall be the third ruler in the kingdom."
17 Chuin Daniel in lengpa chu adonbut in, “Kipaman thilpeh napeh ding chu nangman kikoi tan, ahilou leh midang khat pedoh jeng in. Ahin, bang’a kijih hichehi ipi kiseina ham, keiman na seipeh nang’e.
Then Daniel answered before the king, "Keep your gifts for yourself, and give your rewards to another; Nevertheless I will read the writing to the king, and make known to him the interpretation.
18 Vo lengpa, napa Nebuchadnezzar lengpa chu, Chungnungpen Pathenin leng achansah a, letna leh loupina chuleh jabolna apeh ahi.
You king, the Most High God gave Nebuchadnezzar your father the kingdom, and greatness, and glory, and majesty.
19 Ama chu Pathen in loupitah’a atun jeh in, chitin namtin’a miho leh pao tintang thoho jouse, a-ang sung’a akithing’un akichalheh jeng’un ahi. Aman atha nom athat in, chuleh ahinghoi nom chu ahinghoiye. Aman ajabol nom ajabolin, chuleh asuhnem nom chu asunem in ahi.
And because of the greatness that he gave him, all the peoples, nations, and languages trembled and feared before him. Whom he would he killed, and whom he would he kept alive; and whom he would he raised up, and whom he would he put down.
20 Ahivang in, alungchang leh alungthim’a kiletsahna adim tan, ama akichoi sang phat in, aleng mun’a kon’in akikai lha tan, chuleh aloupina jouse jong aki lahmang peh tai.
But when his heart was lifted up, and his spirit was hardened so that he dealt proudly, he was removed from his kingly throne, and they took his glory from him.
21 Chuin ama chu mihem chenna lah’a konin aki delmang in, alungthim jong gamsa lungthim bangin akikhelpeh in, gamlah’a gamsangan hotoh ahingkhom tai. Aman bong bang in hamhing anen, chuleh van’a kon daitwi hunglha chu adouvin, Pathen in leiset’a lenggam jouse chung’a vai ahom in, adei dei leng’a atunji ahi, ti ahetdoh kahsen, gamsa bang in ahing tan ahi.
And he was driven from the sons of men, and his mind was made like the animals', and his dwelling was with the wild donkeys. He was fed with grass like oxen, and his body was wet with the dew of the sky; until he knew that the Most High God rules in the kingdom of men, and that he sets up over it whomever he wants.
22 Nangma, napa gou-loson achapa nahi, vo Belshazzar, nangin hiche hohi nahet vang'in, nangman kineosahna halcha jong nanei poi.
You his son, Belshazzar, have not humbled your heart, though you knew all this,
23 Nangman kiletsahtah in van Pathen chu nadouvin, Pathen Hou-in’a kon hung kipodoh khon ho chu namong tai. Nangleh na-milen na milal te, najite leh na thaikem hon, hiche khon hochu ju don nan namang uvin, sana, dangka, sum-eng, thih, thing leh songho’a kisem ima hethei lou, khomu lou leh kho jalou semthu pathen ho chu na vahchoi choi jeng’un ahi.
but have lifted up yourself against the Lord of heaven. And they have brought the vessels of his house before you, and you and your lords, your wives and your secondary wives, have drunk wine from them. And you have praised the gods of silver and gold, of bronze, iron, wood, and stone, which do not see, nor hear, nor know. And the God in whose hand your breath is, and whose are all your ways, you have not glorified.
24 Hijeh a chu Pathen a kon’a hiche khut hi hung kilhang doh’a, hiche lekha jem hi ahin jih ahi.
Then was the part of the hand sent from before him, and this writing was inscribed.
25 Hichea lekha jem kijih chu hiche ahi: MENE, MENE, TEKEL chuleh PARSIN
This is the writing that was inscribed: MENE, MENE, TEKEL, UPHARSIN.
26 Chuleh hiche thucheng ho kiledohna chu hiti ahi: MENE kiti hi, Pathen in nalengvaipohna asim tohsa ahi tan, abeina ding nikho hung lhung ahi tai.
This is the interpretation of the thing: MENE; God has numbered your kingdom, and brought it to an end;
27 TEKEL kiti hi, nangma thiltena kilepto bang’a, nangma kilepto’a na kitetohsa ahitan, nalhingjou tapoi.
TEKEL; you are weighed in the balances, and are found wanting.
28 PARSIN kiti hi, na lenggam hi kehni kiso’a kihom khen ahitai. Mede mite leh Persia mite kihop peh ahitai.
PERES; your kingdom is divided, and given to the Medes and Persians."
29 Chuin Belshazzar thupeh dungjuiyin, Daniel chu ponsandup asil peh’un, sana khivui angong’a a-opeh’un chuleh ama chu lenggam pumpia vaipo pipu sangpen athumna in aphong doh tauve.
Then commanded Belshazzar, and they clothed Daniel with purple, and put a chain of gold about his neck, and made proclamation concerning him, that he should be the third ruler in the kingdom.
30 Chuche jan ma ma chun, Babylonte lengpa Belshazzar chu athat tauve.
In that night Belshazzar the Chaldean King was slain.
31 Chuleh Mede mipa Darius chun, akum somgup-le-ni alhin in, hiche lenggam chu akilah tan ahi.
Daryavesh the Mede received the kingdom, being about sixty-two years old.
