Daniel 5
1 Baltasar the king made a great supper for his thousand nobles, and [there was] wine before the thousand.
Ķēniņš Belsacars taisīja lielas dzīres saviem tūkstoš virsniekiem un dzēra vīnu ar tiem tūkstošiem.
2 And Baltasar drinking gave orders as he tasted the wine that they should bring the gold and silver vessels, which Nabuchodonosor his father had brought forth from the temple in Jerusalem; that the king, and his nobles, and his mistresses, and his concubines, should drink out of them.
Kad nu Belsacars vīnu bija baudījis, tad viņš pavēlēja, atnest tos zelta un sudraba traukus, ko viņa tēvs Nebukadnecars bija paņēmis no Jeruzālemes Dieva nama, ka ķēniņš un viņa varenie un viņa sievas un viņa liekās sievas no tiem dzertu.
3 So the gold and silver vessels were brought which [Nabuchodonosor] had taken out of the temple of God in Jerusalem; and the king, and his nobles, and his mistresses, and his concubines, drank out of them.
Tā tie zelta trauki tapa atnesti, kas no Jeruzālemes Dieva nama bija ņemti, un ķēniņš un viņa varenie un viņa sievas un viņa liekās sievas no tiem dzēra.
4 They drank wine, and praised the gods of gold, and of silver, and of brass, and of iron, and of wood, and of stone.
Tie dzēra vīnu un slavēja tos zelta un sudraba, vara, dzelzs, koka un akmens dievus.
5 In the same hour came forth fingers of a man's hand, and wrote in front of the lamp on the plaster of the wall of the king's house: and the king saw the knuckles of the hand that wrote.
Tai pašā acumirklī tur iznāca cilvēka rokas pirksti, tie rakstīja pretim lukturim uz ķēniņa pils balto sienu, un ķēniņš redzēja tās rokas pirkstus, kas rakstīja.
6 Then the king's countenance changed, and his thoughts troubled him, and the joints of his loins were loosed, and his knees struck one another.
Tad ķēniņa ģīmis palika bāls un viņa domas to iztrūcināja, un viņa gurni nogura; un viņa lieli drebēja.
7 And the king cried aloud to bring in the magicians, Chaldeans, [and] soothsayers; and he said to the wise men of Babylon, Whosoever shall read this writing, and make known to me the interpretation, shall be clothed with scarlet, and [there shall be] a golden chain upon his neck, and he shall be the third ruler in my kingdom.
Un ķēniņš brēca stipri, lai atved tos vārdotājus, Kaldejus un pareģus; un ķēniņš iesāka un sacīja uz Bābeles gudriem: kas šos rakstus lasīs un tos man izstāstīs, tas taps apģērbts ar purpuru, ar zelta ķēdi ap kaklu, un viņš būs par trešo valdītāju šinī valstī.
8 Then came in all the king's wise men: but they could not read the writing, nor make known the interpretation to the king.
Tad visi ķēniņa gudrie nāca iekšā, bet tie tos rakstus nevarēja lasīt, nedz ķēniņam tos izstāstīt.
9 And king Baltasar was troubled, and his countenance changed upon him, and his nobles were troubled with him.
Tad ķēniņš Belsacars ļoti iztrūcinājās, un viņa ģīmis palika bāls, un viņa varenie izbijās.
10 Then the queen came into the banquet house, and said, O king, live for ever: let not your thoughts trouble you, and let not your countenance be changed.
Kad ķēniņiene dzirdēja ķēniņa un viņa vareno vārdus, tad tā iegāja tai istabā, kur tās dzīres bija, un ķēniņiene runāja un sacīja: lai ķēniņš dzīvo mūžīgi, un lai tavas domas tevi neizbiedē, un lai tavs ģīmis nav bāls.
11 There is a man in your kingdom, in whom is the Spirit of God; and in the days of your father watchfulness and understanding were found in him; and king Nabuchodonosor your father made him chief of the enchanters, magicians, Chaldeans, [and] soothsayers.
Te ir viens vīrs tavā valstī, iekš tā ir to svēto dievu gars, jo tava tēva laikā pie viņa atrasts gaišums un saprašana un gudrība, itin kāda ir dievu gudrība, un tavs tēvs Nebukadnecars to iecēla par virsnieku tiem gudriem, vārdotājiem, Kaldejiem un pareģiem, tavs tēvs, ak ķēniņ!
12 For [there is] an excellent spirit in him, and sense and understanding in him, interpreting dreams [as he does], and answering hard [questions], and solving difficulties: [it is] Daniel, and the king gave him the name of Baltasar: now then let him be called, and he shall tell you the interpretation of the writing.
Tādēļ ka augsts gars pie tā tapa atrasts un saprašana, izstāstīt sapņus un uzminēt mīklas un izsacīt noslēpumus, proti pie Daniēla, ko ķēniņš lika nosaukt Belsacaru. Aicini nu Daniēli, tas tev to izstāstīs.
13 Then Daniel was brought in before the king: and the king said to Daniel, Are you Daniel, of the children of the captivity of Judea, which the king my father brought?
Tad Daniēls tapa atvests ķēniņa priekšā. Un ķēniņš iesāka un sacīja uz Daniēli: vai tu esi Daniēls, viens no tiem atvestiem Jūdiem, ko ķēniņš, mans tēvs, no Jūda ir atvedis?
14 I have heard concerning you, that the Spirit of God is in you, and [that] watchfulness and understanding and excellent wisdom have been found in you.
Es par tevi esmu dzirdējis, ka dievu gars ir iekš tevis, un ka gaisma un saprašana un liela gudrība pie tevis atrodas.
15 And now, the wise men, magicians, [and] soothsayers, have come in before me, to read the writing, and make known to me the interpretation: but they could not tell it me.
Nu manā priekšā ir atvesti tie gudrie un vārdotāji, šos rakstus lasīt un man darīt zināmu viņu izstāstīšanu, bet tie man tos vārdus nav varējuši izstāstīt.
16 And I have heard concerning you, that you are able to make interpretations: now then if you shall be able to read the writing, and to make known to me the interpretation of it, you shall be clothed with purple, and there shall be a golden chain upon your neck, and you shall be third ruler in my kingdom.
Bet par tevi es esmu dzirdējis, ka tu mākot izstāstīt un noslēpumus izsacīt. Nu tad, ja tu šos rakstus māki lasīt un man izstāstīt, tad tu tapsi apģērbts ar purpuru un ar zelta ķēdi ap savu kaklu un būsi tas trešais valdītājs šinī valstī.
17 And Daniel said, before the king, Let your gifts be to yourself, and give the present of your house to another; but I will read the writing, and will make known to you the interpretation of it.
Tad Daniēls atbildēja un sacīja ķēniņa priekšā: paturi sev savas dāvanas un dod savas mantas citam; bet es tomēr tos rakstus ķēniņam lasīšu un viņam tos izstāstīšu.
18 O king, the most high God gave to your father Nabuchodonosor a kingdom, and majesty, and honour, and glory:
Kungs ķēniņ! Dievs, tas visuaugstais tavam tēvam Nebukadnecaram ir devis valstību un varu, godu un augstību.
19 and by reason of the majesty which he gave to him, all nations, tribes, [and] languages trembled and feared before him: whom he would he killed; and whom he would he struck; and whom he would he exalted; and whom he would he abased.
Un tās augstības dēļ ko viņš tam bija devis, drebēja un trīcēja visi ļaudis, visas tautas un mēles viņa priekšā. Ko gribēja, to viņš nokāva, un ko gribēja, to viņš paturēja dzīvu, un ko gribēja, to viņš paaugstināja, un ko gribēja, to viņš pazemoja.
20 But when his heart was lifted up, and his spirit was emboldened to act proudly, he was deposed from his royal throne, and [his] honour was taken from him.
Bet kad viņa sirds metās lepna, un viņa gars apcietinājās līdz pārgalvībai, tad viņš no savas valstības krēsla tapa nostumts un viņa gods tapa atņemts.
21 And he was driven forth from men; and his heart was given him after the nature of wild beasts, and his dwelling was with the wild asses; and they fed him with grass as an ox, and his body was bathed with the dew of heaven; until he knew that the most high God is Lord of the kingdom of men, and will give it to whoever he shall please.
Un viņš no cilvēku bērniem tapa izstumts, un viņa sirds palika kā lopa sirds, un viņam bija jādzīvo pie meža ēzeļiem, un zāle jāēd kā vēršiem, un viņa miesa no debess rasas tapa slacināta, tiekams viņš atzina, ka tas visu augstākais Dievs ir valdītājs pār cilvēku valstīm un ieceļ pār tām, kuru gribēdams.
22 And you accordingly, his son, O Baltasar, has not humbled your heart before God: know you not all this?
Un tu, Belsacar, viņa dēls, neesi pazemojis savu sirdi, jebšu tu visu gan labi esi zinājis,
23 And you has been exalted against the Lord God of heaven; and they have brought before you the vessels of his house, and you, and your nobles, and your mistresses, and your concubines, have drunk wine out of them; and you has praised the gods of gold, and silver, and brass, and iron, and wood, and stone, which see not, and which hear not, and know not: and the God in whose hand are your breath, and all your ways has you not glorified.
Bet esi cēlies pret to debesu Kungu, un Viņa nama trauki ir atnesti tavā priekšā, un tu un tavi varenie un tavas sievas un tavas liekās sievas no tiem esat vīnu dzēruši un slavējuši tos sudraba un zelta, vara, dzelzs, koka un akmens dievus, kas nedz redz nedz dzird nedz saprot; bet to Dievu, kam rokā tava dvaša un pie kā stāv visi tavi ceļi, Tam tu neesi godu devis.
24 Therefore from his presence has been sent forth the knuckle of a hand; and he has ordered the writing.
Tad tās rokas pirksti no viņa ir sūtīti un šie raksti rakstīti.
25 And this is the ordered writing, Mane, Thekel, Phares.
Un šis ir tas raksts, kas rakstīts: Mene, Mene, Teķel Parsin.
26 This is the interpretation of the sentence: Mane; God has measured your kingdom, and finished it.
Un šī ir to vārdu izstāstīšana: Mene: - Dievs tavu valstību skaitījis un dara tai galu.
27 Thekel; it has been weighed in the balance, and found lacking.
Teķel: - tu svaru kausā esi svērts un esi atrasts visai viegls.
28 Phares; your kingdom is divided, and given to the Medes and Persians.
Peres: - tava valstība ir dalīta un Mēdiešiem un Persiešiem dota.
29 Then Baltasar commanded, and they clothed Daniel with scarlet, and put the golden chain about his neck, and proclaimed concerning him that he was the third ruler in the kingdom.
Tad Belsacars pavēlēja, un tie apģērba Daniēli ar purpuru un ar zelta ķēdi ap kaklu, un izsauca par viņu, ka viņš tas trešais valdnieks valstī.
30 In the same night was Baltasar the Chaldean king slain.
Bet tai pašā naktī Kaldeju ķēniņš Belsacars tapa nokauts.
31 And Darius the Mede succeeded to the kingdom, being sixty-two years [old].
Un Dārijs, tas Medietis, uzņēma valdību, sešdesmit un divus gadus vecs būdams.
