Daniel 5
1 Belshazzar siangpahrang ni, a bawinaw 1,000 touh a kaw teh, ahnimouh hanelah pawi kalenpoung a to pouh teh, ahnimouh hoi misurtui rei a nei awh.
Belshazzar, the king gave a great feast to his thousands lords, and drank wine before the thousand.
2 Misur tui a patek navah Belshazzar ni, apa ni Jerusalem bawkim thung e a lawp e sui manang, ngun manangnaw dawk hoi, siangpahrang hoi a bawinaw, a yu hoi adonaw ni misurtui nei nahanelah thokhai awh telah kâ a poe.
Belshazzar, while he tasted the wine, commanded to bring the golden and silver vessels which his father Nebuchadnezzar had taken out of the temple at Jerusalem; that the king and his princes, his wives and his concubines, might drink therein.
3 Hat toteh, Cathut e bawkim thung e a lawp awh e suimanangnaw hah a la awh teh, siangpahrang hoi a bawinaw, a yu hoi adonaw ni hote manangnaw hoi misurtui a nei na awh.
Then they brought the golden vessels that were taken out of the temple of the house of God at Jerusalem; and the king and his princes, his wives and his concubines, drank in them.
4 Misur tui a nei awh teh, sui cathut, ngun cathut, rahum cathut, sum cathut, thing cathut, talung cathutnaw hah a pholen awh.
They drank wine, and praised the gods of gold and of silver, of brass, of iron, of wood, and of stone.
5 Hatnae tueng nah, tami e a kutdawn a tâco teh, hmaiimkhok lathueng, siangpahrang im tapang dawk a kâthut teh, hottelah ka thut e kutdawn hah siangpahrang ni a hmu.
In the same hour came forth fingers of a man's hand, and wrote over against the chandelier upon the plaster of the wall of the king's palace; and the king saw the hand that wrote.
6 Hattoteh siangpahrang mei det a kamlang teh, a khopouk a ru dawkvah, a kenghru meimei doukkâlat lah ao teh, a khokpakhu thouk a kâkhawng pouh.
Then the king's countenance was changed, and his thoughts troubled him, so that the joints of his loins were loosened, and his knees smote one against the other.
7 Camkathoum e Khaldean taminaw hoi khueyuenaw hah kaw awh telah puenghoi a hram. Hote ca hah a touk vaiteh a ngainae ka dei thai e tami teh, hnipaling kâkhu sak han, sui dingyin a lahuen dawk awi sak han, uknaeram thung vah apâthum e bawi, lawkcengkung lah ao han a ti.
The king cried aloud to bring in the magicians, the Chaldaeans, and the astrologers. And the king spake and said to the wise men of Babylon, Whoever shall read this writing, and show me the interpretation thereof, shall be clothed with purple, and have a chain of gold about his neck, and shall rule as the third in the kingdom.
8 Tami kathoumthainaw pueng teh a tho awh. Hatei hote ca hah touk thai awh hoeh. A deingainae hai pâpho thai awh hoeh.
Then all the king's wise men came in; but they could not read the writing, nor make known to the king its signification.
9 Hatdawkvah, siangpahrang Belshazzar teh, khopouk aru lawi a mei det a kamlang teh, a bawinaw puenghai muen ati awh.
Then was King Belshazzar in great consternation, and his countenance was changed, and his lords were amazed.
10 Hat toteh, siangpahrangnu ni siangpahrang hoi a bawinaw e lawk a thai navah, pawi thung a kâen teh, siangpahrang na hring saw seh. Na khopouk ru sak hanh. Na mei hai det kamlang sak hanh.
Then the queen, on account of this affair of the king and his lords, came into the banquet-house; and the queen spake and said, O king, live forever! Let not thy thoughts terrify thee, nor let thy countenance be changed.
11 Kathoung Cathut Muitha ni a okhai e tami buet touh na uknaeram thung vah ao. Na pa se navah, ahni teh cathutnaw e lungangnae patet e lungangnae hoi panuenae a tawn e hah panue e lah ao. Na pa Nebukhadnezar siangpahrang roeroe ni ahni hah camkathoumnaw, mitpaleikathoumnaw, Khaldeannaw hoi khueyuenaw, kahrawikung lah a hruek toe.
There is a man in thy kingdom in whom is the spirit of the holy gods; and in the days of thy father, light and understanding and wisdom, like the wisdom of the gods, were found in him; and the king Nebuchadnezzar, thy father, made him chief of the scribes, the magicians, the Chaldeans, and the astrologers, thy father, O king!
12 Bangkongtetpawiteh, mang let thainae, ka ru e lawknaw hoi hoe kahawi e muitha, hoi panuenae, hah siangpahrang ni Belteshazzar telah min a poe e Daniel dawk ao e hah panue e lah ao. Hote Daniel hah kaw pawiteh a let thai han doeh atipouh.
forasmuch as an excellent spirit and knowledge and understanding to interpret dreams, and to explain hard sentences, and solve difficult questions were found in him, in Daniel, whom the king named Belteshazzar; now let Daniel be called, and he will show the interpretation.
13 Hattoteh Daniel hah siangpahrang hmalah a thokhai awh. Siangpahrang ni, apa ni Judah ram hoi a man teh a hrawi e sannaw thung dawk ka bawk e Daniel nang maw.
Then was Daniel brought in before the king. And the king spake and said to Daniel, Art thou that Daniel, of the captives of Judah, whom the king, my father, brought out of Judaea?
14 Nang teh Cathut Muitha ni na okhai teh, hoe kahawi e panuenae nang dawk ao tie kamthang ka thai toe.
I have heard concerning thee, that the spirit of the gods is in thee, and that light and understanding and excellent wisdom are found in thee.
15 Hote ca hah touk vaiteh a ngainae hah dei haw titeh camkathoumnaw hah kakaw eiteh, ahnimouh ni dei thai awh hoeh.
And now the wise men and the magicians have been brought in before me, that they might read this writing, and make known to me its signification; but they could not show the signification of the thing.
16 Nang ni na let thai, ka ru e lawk paceinae naw hai na dei thai telah ka thai tangcoung e patetlah nang ni hote ca na touk thai boilah, na let thai pawiteh, hnipaling na kâkhu vaiteh, na lahuen dawk sui dingyin na awi vaiteh, uknaeram thung apâthum e ukkung lah na o han atipouh.
But I have heard of thee that thou canst give interpretations, and solve difficult questions. Now if thou canst read the writing and make known to me its signification, thou shalt be clothed with purple, and have a chain of gold about thy neck, and shalt rule as the third in the kingdom.
17 Daniel ni, na hno poe hane naw teh nang namae lah awmseh. Poe han na ngai e tawkphunaw hah ayâ alouknaw maha poe yawkaw, hatei na hmalah hote ca hah ka touk vaiteh ka let vainei.
Then answered Daniel and said before the king, Let thy gifts be to thyself, and give thy rewards to another: yet I will read the writing to the king, and make known to him the signification.
18 Oe, siangpahrang Lathueng Poung e Cathut ni na pa Nebukhadnezar siangpahrang koe uknaeram, taluenae, bawilennae hoi barinae hah a poe.
O king, the Most High God gave to Nebuchadnezzar, thy father, a kingdom, and majesty, and glory, and honor.
19 Taluenae a poe dawkvah, tami pueng miphun puenghoi lawk cawngca pueng ni a bari awh teh, a hmalah a pâyaw awh. Thei han a ngai e pueng a thei teh, pasai a ngai e pueng hah a pasai. Thaw luen sak a ngai e pueng a luen sak teh, pabo a ngai e pueng a pabo.
And by reason of the majesty which he gave him, all people, nations, and languages trembled and feared before him; whom he would he slew, and whom he would he kept alive; whom he would he set up, and whom he would he put down.
20 A khopouk a rasang, a lungpata teh, kâoup hoi kho a sak. A bawilennae lah pouh lah ao teh, a bawitungkhung dawk hoi pabo lah ao.
But when his heart was lifted up, and his spirit hardened in pride, he was thrust down from his kingly throne, and his glory was taken from him.
21 Taminaw koehoi pâlei lah ao teh, moithang lungthin a tawn sak. Lathueng poung Cathut ni taminaw e uknaeram lathueng kâ a tawn dawkvah, a ngai e tami hah uknaeram a poe e hah a panue hoehroukrak lanaw hoi reirei a pawngpa teh maito patetlah pho a ca teh, khotui cupcup kayu lah ao.
And he was driven from the sons of men; and his heart became like the beasts, and his dwelling was with wild asses; he was fed with grass like oxen, and his body was wet with the dew of heaven; till he knew that the Most High God ruled in the kingdoms of men, and set up over them whomsoever he would.
22 Hatei, a capa nang Belshazzar, nang ni hote hnonaw hah na panue eiteh na lungthin na ka rahnoum laipalah,
And thou, his son, O Belshazzar, hast not humbled thy heart, though thou knewest all this;
23 Kalvan Bawipa hah na taran teh, bawkim thung e manangnaw hah na la sak teh, nama hoi na bawinaw hoi na yu hoi a donaw ni hote manang hoi misurtui na nei awh. Hahoi sui, ngun, rahum, sum, thing, talung hoi sak e cathut, kahmawt thai hoeh e, ka thai thai hoeh e hah na pholen awh teh, na hringnae hoi na lamthung pueng ka kuenkung Cathut law teh pholen laipalah na o awh.
but hast lifted thyself up against the Lord of heaven; and the vessels of his house have been brought before thee, and thou, and thy lords, thy wives, and thy concubines have drunk wine in them; and thou hast praised the gods of silver and gold, of brass, iron, wood, and stone, which see not, nor hear, nor know; and the God in whose hand is thy breath, and whose are all thy ways, thou hast not honored.
24 Hatdawkvah kutdawn a patoun teh hote ca hah a thut sak.
Then was sent from him the hand, and this writing was written.
25 Hote ca teh; MENE, MENE, TEKEL, UPHARSIN
And this is the writing which was written: Numbered, Numbered, Weighed, and To be Divided.
26 MENE tie teh, na uknaeram hah Cathut ni a parei teh, a pâbaw toe.
And this is the interpretation of it. Numbered: God hath numbered thy kingdom, and made an end of it.
27 TEKEL tie teh, nang hah yawcu dawk na khing boteh na kuep hoeh toe.
Weighed: Thou art weighed in the balances, and found wanting.
28 PERES tie teh, na ukneram heh kapek lah ao toe. Media hoi Persia koe poe lah ao toe telah Daniel ni a dei pouh.
Divided: Thy kingdom is divided, and given to the Medes and Persians.
29 Hat toteh, Belshazzar siangpahrang ni a dei e patetlah Daniel hah hnipaling a kâkhu sak teh, a lahuen dawk sui dingyin a awi sak teh, a uknaeram dawk apâthum e bawi lah ao telah khothung a kâhlaikhai awh teh a oung awh.
Then Belshazzar commanded, and they clothed Daniel with purple, and put a chain of gold about his neck, and made a proclamation concerning him that he should be third ruler in the kingdom.
30 Hat hnin tangmin vah, Khaldean siangpahrang Belshazzar teh thei e lah ao.
In the same night was Belshazzar, the king of the Chaldaeans, slain;
31 A kum 62 touh ka phat e Media tami Darius siangpahrang ni uknaeram hah a lawp.
and Darius the Mede took the kingdom, being about sixty-two years old.
