< Daniel 3 >
1 In [his] eighteenth year Nabuchodonosor the king made a golden image, its height was sixty cubits, its breadth six cubits: and he set it up in the plain of Deira, in the province of Babylon.
Tokosra Nebuchadnezzar el sap orekla ma sruloala gold se, fit eungoul fulata ac fit eu sralap, ac el sap tulokyak in acn tupasrpasr se pangpang Dura, apkuran nu ke siti Babylon.
2 And he sent forth to gather the governors, and the captains, and the heads of provinces, chiefs, and princes, and those who were in authority, and all the rulers of districts, to come to the dedication of the image.
Na tokosra el sapkin mwet pwapa lal nukewa in fahsreni — mwet fisrak nukewa, governor nukewa, governor akluo nukewa, mwet kol lun kais sie kain in orekma, mwet liyaung mwe kasrup, mwet nununku, mwet pwapa fulat ke kais sie acn, ac mwet kol saya nukewa lun acn we. Elos in fahsreni ac wi kisaela ma sroloala se ma Tokosra Nebuchadnezzar el tulokunak ah.
3 So the heads of provinces, the governors, the captains, the chiefs, the great princes, those who were in authority, and all the rulers of districts, were gathered to the dedication of the image which king Nabuchodonosor had set up; and they stood before the image.
Ke mwet fulat inge nukewa fahsreni nu ke kisa sac, ac tu ye mutun ma sruloala sac,
4 Then a herald cried aloud, To you it is commanded, ye peoples, tribes, [and] languages,
sie mwet in sulkakin pweng lun tokosra el fahk ke sie pusra lulap, “Kowos, mwet mutunfacl nukewa, su sramsram ke kain in kas nukewa!
5 at what hour ye shall hear the sound of the trumpet, and pipe, and harp, and sackbut, and psaltery, and every kind of music, ye shall fall down and worship the golden image which king Nabuchodonosor has set up.
Kowos ac fah lohng pusren mwe ukuk, ac toko pusren oboe, lyre, zither ac harp, ac oayapa kain mwe srital nukewa saya ac fah weang ma inge. Ke pacl se na mwe on inge ac kasla uh, kowos in pasrla ac alu nu ke ma sruloala gold se su Tokosra Nebuchadnezzar el tulokonak inge.
6 And whosoever shall not fall down and worship, in the same hour he shall be cast into the burning fiery furnace.
Kutena mwet su tia pasrla ac alu nu kac ac fah sisiyang nu in sie funyu in e firir uh.”
7 And it came to pass when the nations heard the sound of the trumpet, and pipe, and harp, and sackbut, and psaltery, and all kinds of music, all the nations, tribes, [and] languages, fell down and worshipped the golden image which king Nabuchodonosor had set up.
Ouinge ke elos lohng pusren mwe on uh kasla, mwet in mutunfacl nukewa ac kain in kas nukewa elos pasrla ac alu nu ke ma sruloala gold se ma Tokosra Nebuchadnezzar el tulokunak ah.
8 Then came near [certain] Chaldeans, and accused the Jews to the king, [saying],
In pacl sac, kutu sin mwet Babylonia elos konauk pacl wo lalos in akkolukye mwet Jew ah.
Elos fahk ouinge nu sel Tokosra Nebuchadnezzar, “Lela in loes moul lun tokosra!
10 Thou, O king, hast made a decree, that every man who shall hear the sound of the trumpet, and pipe, and harp, sackbut, and psaltery, and all kinds of music,
Tokosra tuh sapkin mu pusren mwe on uh fin kasla, mwet nukewa in pasrla ac alu nu ke ma sruloala gold sac,
11 and shall not fall down and worship the golden image, shall be cast into the burning fiery furnace.
ac kutena mwet su tia pasrla ac alu nu kac ac fah sisiyang nu in sie funyu in e firir.
12 There are [certain] Jews whom thou hast appointed over the affairs of the province of Babylon, Sedrach, Misach, [and] Abdenago, who have not obeyed thy decree, O king: they serve not thy gods, and worship not the golden image which thou hast set up.
Oasr kutu mwet Jew ma kom sang in karingin acn ma apkuran nu Babylon — Shadrach, Meshach ac Abednego — su tia akos sap lun tokosra. Elos tiana alu nu sin god lom uh, ku pasrla nu ke ma sroloala se kom tulokunak ah.”
13 Then Nabuchodonosor in wrath and anger commanded to bring Sedrach, Misach, and Abdenago: and they were brought before the king.
Ke elos fahk ouinge, tokosra el arulana kasrkusrakak ac sap in utuku mwet tolu ah nu ye mutal.
14 And Nabuchodonosor answered and said to them, Is it true, Sedrach, Misach, [and] Abdenago, that ye serve not my gods, and worship not the golden image which I have set up?
Ac el fahk nu seltal, “Shadrach, Meshach, Abednego, ya pwaye lah komtal srangesr alu nu sin god luk uh, ac tia pasrla nu ke ma sroloala se nga tulokunak ah?
15 Now then if ye be ready, whensoever ye shall hear the sound of the trumpet, and pipe, and harp, and sackbut, and psaltery, and harmony, and every kind of music, to fall down and worship the golden image which I have made; [well]: but if ye worship not, in the same hour ye shall be cast into the burning fiery furnace; and who is the God that shall deliver you out of my hand?
Komtal fin lohng pusren mwe ukuk, oboe, lyre, zither, harp, ac mwe on saya nukewa in kasla,’tal pasrla nu ke ma sroloala sac ac alu nu kac. Komtal fin tia, na ac sisiyang komtal nu ke funyu in e firir. Ku komtal nunku mu oasr god ac ku in molikomtalla?”
16 Then answered Sedrach, Misach, [and] Abdenago, and said to king Nabuchodonosor, We have no need to answer thee concerning this matter.
Na Shadrach, Meshach, ac Abednego topuk ac fahk nu sel, “O Tokosra, kut ac tia srike in fahk kutena kas in akwoye kut.
17 For our God whom we serve is in the heavens, able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and he will rescue us from thy hands, O king.
God se su kut kulansap nu se uh fin ku in molikutla liki e firir ingan, ac liki ku lom, na El ac molikutla.
18 But if not, be it known to thee, O king, that we [will] not serve thy gods, nor worship the image which thou hast set up.
Tusruktu El finne tia molikutla, lela in arulana kalem sin tokosra lah kut tia ku in alu su sin god lom an, ac kut ac fah tiana pasrla nu ke ma sruloala gold se ma kom tulokunak an.”
19 Then Nabuchodonosor was filled with wrath, and the form of his countenance was changed toward Sedrach, Misach, and Abdenago: and he gave orders to heat the furnace seven times [more than usual], until it should burn to the uttermost.
Na Nebuchadnezzar el arulana rarak ke kasrkusrak, ac ngetang suilya Shadrach, Meshach ac Abednego. Na el sap mwet lal uh in tanak e uh in fol pacl itkosr yohk liki pacl nukewa.
20 And he commanded mighty men to bind Sedrach, Misach, and Abdenago, and to cast [them] into the burning fiery furnace.
Ac el sap mwet ma ku oemeet sin mwet mweun lal in kapriya mwet tolu inge ac siselosyang nu in funyu in e firir sac.
21 Then those men were bound with their coats, and caps, and hose, and were cast into the midst of the burning fiery furnace,
Ouinge elos kaprelosi ke elos putena nuknuk, susu, ac ma nukewa, ac siselosyang nu in funyu sac.
22 forasmuch as the king’s word prevailed; and the furnace was made exceeding hot.
Ac ke sripen tokosra el tuh sap in tayak e sac in arulana fol, oru e sac tuh esukak pac mwet ma us mwet tolu ah ac siselosyang nu ke e sac.
23 Then these three men, Sedrach, Misach, and Abdenago, fell bound into the midst of the burning furnace, and walked in the midst of the flame, singing praise to God, and blessing the Lord.
Na Shadrach, Meshach, ac Abednego srakna kapir, ac sisiyang elos nu in fiten e sac.
24 And Nabuchodonosor heard them singing praises; and he wondered, and rose up in haste, and said to his nobles, Did we not cast three men bound into the midst of the fire? and they said to the king, Yes, O king.
In kitin pacl ah na Nebuchadnezzar el atuyak ke lut ac fwefela lal. Ac el siyuk sin mwet pwapa lal, “Ku tia mwet tolu pa kut kapriya ac sisang nu in e sac ah?” Ac elos fahk, “Aok, pwaye.”
25 And the king said, But I see four men loose, and walking in the midst of the fire, and there has no harm happened to them; and the appearance of the fourth is like the Son of God.
Na el sifil siyuk, “Ac efu ku mwet akosr pa nga liye forfor in e se ingo? Eltal tiana kapir ac wanginna akilenya mu eltal fol — ac mwet se akakosr ingo oana luman lipufan se.”
26 Then Nabuchodonosor drew near to the door of the burning fiery furnace, and said, Sedrach, Misach, [and] Abdenago, ye servants of the most high God, proceed forth, and come hither. So Sedrach, Misach, [and] Abdenago, came forth out of the midst of the fire.
Ouinge Nebuchadnezzar el fahsryang nwe ke mutun funyu firir sac, pangyak ac fahk, “Shadrach! Meshach! Abednego! Kowos su mwet kulansapu God Fulatlana, oatume!” Na elos tukenina oatui.
27 Then were assembled the satraps, and captains, and heads of provinces, and the royal princes; and they saw the men, [and perceived] that the fire had not had power against their bodies, and the hair of their head was not burnt, and their coats were not scorched, nor was the smell of fire upon them.
Mwet nukewa: fisrak, governor, governor akluo, ac mwet leum saya nukewa lal tokosra, elos fahsreni in liye mwet tolu ah, su tiana folla ke e sac. Aunsifalos ac nuknuk lalos tiana firiryak, ac elos tia pac fokulasrla ke e sac.
28 And king Nabuchodonosor answered and said, Blessed be the God of Sedrach, Misach, [and] Abdenago, who has sent his angel, and delivered his servants, because they trusted in him; and they have changed the king’s word, and delivered their bodies to be burnt, that they might not serve nor worship any god, except their own God.
Na tokosra el fahk, “Kaksakin God lal Shadrach, Meshach, ac Abednego! El supwama lipufan lal ac molela mwet su orekma nu sel ac lulalfongel inge. Elos tuh pilesrala moul lalos ac tia akos ma sap luk ke sripen elos tia lungse epasr nu sin kutena god sayen God lalos sifacna.
29 Wherefore I publish a decree: Every people, tribe, [or] language, that shall speak reproachfully against the God of Sedrach, Misach, [and] Abdenago, shall be destroyed, and their houses shall be plundered: because there is no other God who shall be able to deliver thus.
“Na inge, nga sapkin tuh mwet in kutena mutunfacl, ku kutena kain in kas, fin fahk kutena kas ma ac akkolukye God lal Shadrach, Meshach, ac Abednego, ac fah sreyuki manol ke kupasr nukewa kacl, ac lohm sel fah rakinyuki nwe ke oana sie yol in kutkut. Wangin siena god su ku in oru inkanek in molela ouinge.”
30 Then the king promoted Sedrach, Misach, [and] Abdenago, in the province of Babylon, and advanced them, and gave them authority to rule over all the Jews who were in his kingdom.
Ac tokosra el sifilpa kulak wal lal Shadrach, Meshach, ac Abednego in acn Babylon.
