Daniel 6
1 Now it pleased Darius to appoint 120 satraps to rule throughout the kingdom,
И бысть угодно пред царем, и постави во царстве князей сто и двадесять, еже быти им во всем царстве его,
2 and over them three administrators, including Daniel, to whom these satraps were accountable so that the king would not suffer loss.
над ними же три чиновники, от нихже бе Даниил един, дабы отдавали им князи слово, яко да царю не стужают.
3 Soon, by his extraordinary spirit, Daniel distinguished himself among the administrators and satraps. So the king planned to set him over the whole kingdom.
И бе Даниил над ними, яко дух бяше преизюбилен в нем, и царь постави его над всем царством своим.
4 Thus the administrators and satraps sought a charge against Daniel concerning the kingdom, but they could find no charge or corruption, because he was trustworthy, and no negligence or corruption was found in him.
Чиновницы же и князи искаху вины обрести на Даниила: и всякия вины и соблазна и греха не обретоша на него, яко верен бяше.
5 Finally these men said, “We will never find any charge against this Daniel, unless we find something against him concerning the law of his God.”
И реща чиновницы не обрящем на Даниила вины, аще не в законех Бога его.
6 So the administrators and satraps went together to the king and said, “O King Darius, may you live forever!
Тогда чиновницы и князи предсташа царю и реша ему: Дарие царю, во веки живи:
7 All the royal administrators, prefects, satraps, advisers, and governors have agreed that the king should establish an ordinance and enforce a decree that for thirty days anyone who petitions any god or man except you, O king, will be thrown into the den of lions.
совещаша вси иже во царстве твоем воеводы и князи, ипати и обладающии странами, еже уставити устав царский и укрепити предел, яко аще кто попросит прошения от всякаго бога и человека до дний тридесяти, разве точию от тебе, царю, да ввержен будет в ров левский:
8 Therefore, O king, establish the decree and sign the document so that it cannot be changed—in accordance with the law of the Medes and Persians, which cannot be repealed.”
ныне убо, царю, устави предел и положи писание, яко да не изменится заповедь Мидска и Персска, (да никтоже преступит ея).
9 Therefore King Darius signed the written decree.
Тогда царь Дарий повеле вписати заповедь.
10 Now when Daniel learned that the document had been signed, he went into his house, where the windows of his upper room opened toward Jerusalem, and three times a day he got down on his knees, prayed, and gave thanks to his God, just as he had done before.
Даниил же егда уведе, яко заповедь вчинися, вниде в дом свой: дверцы же отверсты ему в горнице его противу Иерусалима, в три же времена дне бяше прекланяя колена своя, моляся и исповедаяся пред Богом своим, якоже бе творя прежде.
11 Then these men went as a group and found Daniel petitioning and imploring his God.
Тогда мужие онии наблюдоша и обретоша Даниила просяща и молящася Богу своему,
12 So they approached the king and asked about his royal decree: “Did you not sign a decree that for thirty days any man who petitions any god or man except you, O king, will be thrown into the den of lions?” The king replied, “According to the law of the Medes and Persians the order stands, and it cannot be repealed.”
и пришедше реша пред царем: царю, не вчинил ли еси ты предела, яко да всяк человек, иже аще попросит у всякаго бога и человека прошения до тридесяти дний, но точию у тебе, царю, да ввержется в ров левск? И рече царь: истинно слово, и заповедь Мидска и Персска не мимоидет.
13 Then they told the king, “Daniel, one of the exiles from Judah, shows no regard for you, O king, or for the decree that you have signed. He still makes his petition three times a day.”
Тогда отвещаша пред царем и глаголаша: Даниил, иже от сынов плена Иудейска, не покорися заповеди твоей (и не раде) о пределе, егоже вчинил еси: в три бо времена дне просит у Бога своего прошений своих.
14 As soon as the king heard this, he was deeply distressed and set his mind on delivering Daniel, and he labored until sundown to rescue him.
Тогда царь, яко слышав слово сие, зело опечалися о нем, и о Данииле пряшеся еже избавити его, и бе даже до вечера пряся еже избавити его.
15 Then the men approached the king together and said to him, “Remember, O king, that by the law of the Medes and Persians no decree or ordinance established by the king can be changed.”
Тогда мужие онии глаголаша царю: веждь, царю яко Мидом и Персом не леть есть пременити всякаго предела и устава, егоже царь уставит.
16 So the king gave the order, and they brought Daniel and threw him into the den of lions. The king said to Daniel, “May your God, whom you serve continually, deliver you!”
Тогда царь рече, и приведоша Даниила и ввергоша его в ров левск. И рече царь Даниилу: Бог твой, Емуже ты служиши присно, Той избавит тя.
17 A stone was brought and placed over the mouth of the den, and the king sealed it with his own signet ring and with the rings of his nobles, so that nothing concerning Daniel could be changed.
И принесоша камень един и возложиша на устие рва, и запечата царь перстнем своим и перстнем вельмож своих, да не изменится деяние о Данииле.
18 Then the king went to his palace and spent the night fasting. No entertainment was brought before him, and sleep fled from him.
И отиде царь в дом свой и ляже без вечери, и яди не внесоша к нему: и сон отступи от него. И заключи Бог уста львом, и не стужиша Даниилу.
19 At the first light of dawn, the king got up and hurried to the den of lions.
Тогда царь воста заутра на свете и со тщанием прииде ко рву левску.
20 When he reached the den, he cried out in a voice of anguish, “O Daniel, servant of the living God, has your God, whom you serve continually, been able to deliver you from the lions?”
И егда приближися ко рву, возопи гласом крепким: Данииле, рабе Бога живаго! Бог твой, Емуже ты служиши присно, возможе ли избавити тя из уст львовых?
21 Then Daniel replied, “O king, may you live forever!
И рече Даниил цареви: царю, во веки живи:
22 My God sent His angel and shut the mouths of the lions. They have not hurt me, for I was found innocent in His sight, and I have done no wrong against you, O king.”
Бог мой посла Ангела Своего и затвори уста львов, и не вредиша мене, яко обретеся пред Ним правда моя, и пред тобою, царю, согрешения не сотворих.
23 The king was overjoyed and gave orders to lift Daniel out of the den, and when Daniel was lifted out of the den, no wounds whatsoever were found on him, because he had trusted in his God.
Тогда царь вельми возвеселися о нем и рече Даниила извести из рва. И изведен бысть Даниил из рва, и всякаго тления не обретеся на нем яко верова в Бога своего.
24 At the command of the king, the men who had falsely accused Daniel were brought and thrown into the den of lions—they and their children and wives. And before they had reached the bottom of the den, the lions overpowered them and crushed all their bones.
И рече царь, и приведоша мужы оклеветавшыя Даниила и в ров левск ввергоша я и сыны их и жены их: и не доидоша дна рва, даже соодолеша им львы и вся кости их истончиша.
25 Then King Darius wrote to the people of every nation and language throughout the land: “May your prosperity abound.
Тогда Дарий царь написа всем людем, племеном, языком, живущым во всей земли: мир вам да умножится:
26 I hereby decree that in every part of my kingdom, men are to tremble in fear before the God of Daniel: For He is the living God, and He endures forever; His kingdom will never be destroyed, and His dominion will never end.
от лица моего заповедася заповедь сия во всей земли царства моего, да будут трепещуще и боящеся от лица Бога Даниилова, яко Той есть Бог живый и пребываяй во веки, и царство Его не разсыплется, и власть Его до конца:
27 He delivers and rescues; He performs signs and wonders in the heavens and on the earth, for He has rescued Daniel from the power of the lions.”
подемлет и избавляет, и творит знамения и чудеса на небеси и на земли, иже избави Даниила от уст львовых.
28 So Daniel prospered during the reign of Darius and the reign of Cyrus the Persian.
Даниил же управляше во царстве Дариеве и во царстве Кира Персянина.
