Daniel 3
1 King Nebuchadnezzar made a golden statue sixty cubits high and six cubits wide, and he set it up on the plain of Dura in the province of Babylon.
Mokonzi Nabukodonozori asalisaki ekeko moko ya wolo, oyo ezalaki na bametele pene tuku misato na bosanda mpe bametele pene misato na mokuse. Atelemisaki yango kati na etando ya Dura, na etuka ya Babiloni.
2 Then King Nebuchadnezzar sent word to assemble the satraps, prefects, governors, advisers, treasurers, judges, magistrates, and all the other officials of the provinces to attend the dedication of the statue he had set up.
Abengisaki bayangeli oyo atiaki na bituka, bakalaka oyo babatelaka biloko ya mokonzi, bayangeli, bapesi toli, babateli bomengo ya mokonzi, bato ya mibeko, basambisi mpe bakalaka nyonso ya bituka, mpo ete baya na feti ya kobandisa losambo ya ekeko oyo mokonzi Nabukodonozori asalisaki.
3 So the satraps, prefects, governors, advisers, treasurers, judges, magistrates, and all the rulers of the provinces assembled for the dedication of the statue that King Nebuchadnezzar had set up, and they stood before it.
Boye, bayangeli oyo atiaki na bituka, bakalaka oyo babatelaka biloko ya mokonzi, bayangeli, bapesi toli, babateli ya bomengo ya mokonzi, bato ya mibeko, basambisi mpe bakalaka nyonso ya bituka basanganaki mpo na feti ya kobandisa losambo ya ekeko oyo mokonzi Nabukodonozori asalisaki, mpe batelemaki liboso na yango.
4 Then the herald loudly proclaimed, “O people of every nation and language, this is what you are commanded:
Molobeli ya mokonzi atatolaki na mongongo makasi: — Bino bato ya bikolo nyonso mpe ya nkota nyonso, tala makambo oyo bosengeli kosala:
5 As soon as you hear the sound of the horn, flute, zither, lyre, harp, pipes, and all kinds of music, you must fall down and worship the golden statue that King Nebuchadnezzar has set up.
« Tango kaka bokoyoka lolaka ya kelelo, ya flite, ya lindanda ya moke, ya lindanda, ya nzenze, ya fanfari mpe makelele ya lolenge nyonso ya bibetelo mindule, bosengeli kofukama mpo na kogumbamela ekeko ya wolo oyo mokonzi Nabukodonozori asalisi.
6 And whoever does not fall down and worship will immediately be thrown into the blazing fiery furnace.”
Moto nyonso oyo akoboya kofukama mpo na kogumbamela ekeko yango, bakobwaka ye mbala moko kati na libulu ya moto. »
7 Therefore, as soon as all the people heard the sound of the horn, flute, zither, lyre, harp, and all kinds of music, the people of every nation and language would fall down and worship the golden statue that King Nebuchadnezzar had set up.
Yango wana, tango kaka bayokaki lolaka ya kelelo, ya flite, ya lindanda ya moke, ya lindanda, ya nzenze, ya fanfari mpe makelele ya bibetelo mindule lolenge nyonso, bato ya bikolo nyonso, ya mikili nyonso mpe ya nkota nyonso bafukamaki mpo na kogumbamela ekeko ya wolo oyo mokonzi Nabukodonozori asalisaki.
8 At this time some astrologers came forward and maliciously accused the Jews,
Kaka na tango yango, ndambo ya bato ya soloka, oyo basalelaka minzoto bayaki kofunda Bayuda.
9 saying to King Nebuchadnezzar, “O king, may you live forever!
Balobaki na mokonzi Nabukodonozori: — Oh mokonzi, tika ete owumela na bomoi seko na seko!
10 You, O king, have issued a decree that everyone who hears the sound of the horn, flute, zither, lyre, harp, pipes, and all kinds of music must fall down and worship the golden statue,
Oh mokonzi, opesaki mitindo ete moto nyonso oyo akoyoka lolaka ya kelelo, ya flite, ya lindanda ya moke, ya lindanda, ya nzenze, ya fanfari mpe makelele ya lolenge nyonso ya bibetelo mindule afukama mpo na kogumbamela ekeko ya wolo;
11 and that whoever does not fall down and worship will be thrown into the blazing fiery furnace.
mpe ete moto nyonso oyo akoboya kofukama mpo na kogumbamela ekeko yango, babwaka ye kati na libulu ya moto!
12 But there are some Jews you have appointed to manage the province of Babylon—Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego—who have ignored you, O king, and have refused to serve your gods or worship the golden statue you have set up.”
Kasi, mokonzi, ezali na ndambo ya Bayuda oyo okomisaki bayangeli na etuka ya Babiloni: Shadraki, Meshaki mpe Abedinego, oyo bazali kotosa yo ata moke te: bazali kosalela banzambe na yo te mpe kogumbamela te ekeko ya wolo oyo osali.
13 Then Nebuchadnezzar, furious with rage, summoned Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. So these men were brought before the king,
Mokonzi Nabukodonozori atombokaki makasi mpe abengisaki Shadraki, Meshaki mpe Abedinego. Boye, bamemaki bango liboso ya mokonzi.
14 and Nebuchadnezzar said to them, “Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, is it true that you do not serve my gods or worship the golden statue I have set up?
Nabukodonozori atunaki bango: — Shadraki, Meshaki mpe Abedinego, ezali penza ya solo ete bozali kosalela banzambe na ngai te mpe bozali kogumbamela te ekeko ya wolo oyo nasali?
15 Now, if you are ready, as soon as you hear the sound of the horn, flute, zither, lyre, harp, pipes, and all kinds of music, you must fall down and worship the statue I have made. But if you refuse to worship, you will be thrown at once into the blazing fiery furnace. Then what god will be able to deliver you from my hands?”
Sik’oyo, bomibongisa! Tango kaka bokoyoka lolaka ya kelelo, ya flite, ya lindanda ya moke, ya lindanda, ya nzenze, ya fanfari mpe makelele ya nyonso ya bibetelo mindule, bokofukama mpo na kogumbamela ekeko oyo nasali. Soki boboyi kogumbamela yango, bokobwakama mbala moko kati na libulu ya moto. Boye, tokotala soki nzambe nini akokoka kokangola bino na maboko na ngai.
16 Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego replied to the king, “O Nebuchadnezzar, we have no need to answer you in this matter.
Shadraki, Meshaki mpe Abedinego bazongiselaki mokonzi Nabukodonozori: — Tozali na tina na komibundela te na likambo oyo liboso na yo.
17 If the God whom we serve exists, then He is able to deliver us from the blazing fiery furnace and from your hand, O king.
Soki babwaki biso kati na libulu ya moto, Nzambe oyo tosalelaka azali na makoki ya kobikisa biso wuta na libulu yango mpe ya kokangola biso na maboko na yo.
18 But even if He does not, let it be known to you, O king, that we will not serve your gods or worship the golden statue you have set up.”
Kasi ata soki abikisi na Ye biso te, tolingi mokonzi oyeba ete, biso, tokosalela banzambe na yo te mpe tokogumbamela te ekeko ya wolo oyo osalaki.
19 At this, Nebuchadnezzar was filled with rage, and the expression on his face changed toward Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. He gave orders to heat the furnace seven times hotter than usual,
Nabukodonozori atombokelaki makasi Shadraki, Meshaki mpe Abedinego, mpe akangelaki bango elongi; apesaki mitindo ete bapelisa moto makasi penza mbala sambo koleka ndenge bapelisaka yango tango nyonso.
20 and he commanded some mighty men of valor in his army to tie up Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego and throw them into the blazing fiery furnace.
Bongo apesaki mitindo na ndambo ya basoda ya mpiko kati na mampinga na ye ete bakanga Shadraki, Meshaki mpe Abedinego basinga mpe babwaka bango kati na libulu ya moto.
21 So they were tied up, wearing robes, trousers, turbans, and other clothes, and they were thrown into the blazing fiery furnace.
Boye, bakangaki Shadraki, Meshaki mpe Abedinego basinga, wana balataki bilamba na bango, banzambala na bango, bakazaka na bango, bitendi na bango oyo bakangaka na moto mpe bilamba mosusu, mpe babwakaki bango kati na libulu ya moto.
22 The king’s command was so urgent and the furnace so hot that the fiery flames killed the men who carried up Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego.
Lokola mokonzi apesaki mitindo ete bapelisa moto ya libulu ya moto makasi penza, moto yango ebomaki basoda oyo babwakaki Shadraki, Meshaki mpe Abedinego kati na libulu ya moto.
23 And these three men, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, firmly bound, fell into the blazing fiery furnace.
Kasi Shadraki, Meshaki mpe Abedinego bakweyaki kati na libulu yango ya moto, bakanga bango basinga makasi.
24 Suddenly King Nebuchadnezzar jumped up in amazement and asked his advisers, “Did we not throw three men, firmly bound, into the fire?” “Certainly, O king,” they replied.
Mokonzi Nabukodonozori akamwaki mpe atelemaki na lombangu; atunaki bapesi toli na ye: — Boni, tobwakaki te bato misato kati na moto, bakanga bango basinga? Bazongiselaki mokonzi: — Mokonzi, tosalaki bongo!
25 “Look!” he exclaimed. “I see four men, unbound and unharmed, walking around in the fire—and the fourth looks like a son of the gods!”
Alobaki na bapesi toli na ye: — Botala! Nazali komona bato minei bazali kotambola kati na moto, bakangama basinga te mpe moto ezali kozikisa bango te; mpe moto ya minei azali lokola mwana ya banzambe.
26 Then Nebuchadnezzar approached the door of the blazing fiery furnace and called out, “Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, servants of the Most High God, come out!” So Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego came out of the fire,
Nabukodonozori apusanaki pene ya monoko ya libulu ya moto mpe agangaki na mongongo makasi: — Shadraki, Meshaki mpe Abedinego, basali ya Nzambe-Oyo-Aleki-Likolo, bobima kuna mpe boya awa! Shadraki, Meshaki mpe Abedinego babimaki wuta na libulu ya moto.
27 and when the satraps, prefects, governors, and royal advisers had gathered around, they saw that the fire had no effect on the bodies of these men. Not a hair of their heads was singed, their robes were unaffected, and there was no smell of fire on them.
Bayangeli oyo mokonzi atiaki na bituka, bakalaka oyo babatelaka biloko ya mokonzi, bayangeli mpe bapesi toli ya mokonzi bazingelaki bango; mpe bamonaki ete moto ezikisaki te ezala banzoto na bango, suki ya mito na bango to bilamba na bango, mpe batikalaki koyoka bango ata solo ya moto te.
28 Nebuchadnezzar declared, “Blessed be the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, who has sent His angel and delivered His servants who trusted in Him. They violated the king’s command and risked their lives rather than serve or worship any god except their own God.
Nabukodonozori alobaki: — Tika ete Nzambe ya Shadraki, Meshaki mpe Abedinego akumisama; Ye nde atindaki anjelu na Ye mpo ete abikisa basali na Ye, pamba te batielaka Ye motema! Batosaki mitindo ya mokonzi te mpe bandimaki kobungisa bomoi na bango na esika ya kosalela mpe kogumbamela nzambe mosusu, soki Nzambe na bango te.
29 Therefore I decree that the people of any nation or language who say anything offensive against the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego will be cut into pieces and their houses reduced to rubble. For there is no other god who can deliver in this way.”
Yango wana, nazwi mokano ete moto nyonso, azala ya mokili, ekolo to lokota nini, oyo akoloba mabe mpo na Nzambe ya Shadraki, Meshaki mpe Abedinego, bakokata-kata ye na biteni, bakobuka ndako na ye mpe bakokomisa yango mopiku ya mbindo, pamba te Nzambe mosusu azali te, oyo akoki kobikisa bato na Ye na lolenge oyo!
30 Then the king promoted Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego in the province of Babylon.
Sima na yango, mokonzi atombolaki Shadraki, Meshaki mpe Abedinego kati na etuka ya Babiloni.
