Daniel 5
1 Baltasar the king made a great supper for his thousand nobles, and [there was] wine before the thousand.
Car Valtasar uèini veliku gozbu tisuæi knezova svojih, i pijaše vino pred tisuæom njih.
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.
Napiv se vina Valtasar zapovjedi da se donesu sudovi zlatni i srebrni, koje bješe odnio Navuhodonosor otac mu iz crkve Jerusalimske, da iz njih piju car i knezovi mu, i žene njegove i inoèe njegove.
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.
I donesoše zlatne sudove koje bjehu odnijeli iz crkve doma Gospodnjega u Jerusalimu, i pijahu iz njih car i knezovi njegovi, žene njegove i inoèe njegove;
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.
Pijahu vino, i hvaljahu bogove zlatne i srebrne i mjedene i drvene i kamene.
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.
U taj èas izidoše prsti ruke èovjeèije, i pisahu prema svijetnjaku po okreèenom zidu od carskoga dvora, i car vidje ruku koja pisaše.
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.
Tada se promijeni lice caru, i misli ga njegove uznemiriše, i pojas se oko njega raspasa i koljena mu udarahu jedno o drugo.
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.
Povika car iza glasa; te dovedoše zvjezdare, Haldeje i gatare; i progovori car i reèe mudarcima Vavilonskim: ko proèita ovo pismo i kaže mi što znaèi, onaj æe se obuæi u skerlet, i nosiæe zlatnu verižicu o vratu, i biæe treæi gospodar u carstvu.
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.
Tada pristupiše svi mudarci carevi; ali ne mogoše proèitati pisma niti kazati caru što znaèi.
9 And king Baltasar was troubled, and his countenance changed upon him, and his nobles were troubled with him.
Tada se car Valtasar vrlo uznemiri i lice mu se sasvijem izmijeni; i knezovi se njegovi prepadoše.
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.
Doðe carica radi toga što se dogodi caru i knezovima njegovijem u kuæu gdje bješe gozba, i progovori carica i reèe: care, da si živ dovijeka! da te ne uznemiruju misli tvoje i da ti se lice ne mijenja.
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.
Ima èovjek u tvom carstvu, u kom je duh svetijeh bogova; i u vrijeme oca tvojega naðe se u njega vidjelo i razum i mudrost, kakova je u bogova, i car Navuhodonosor otac tvoj, care, postavi ga glavarem vraèarima, zvjezdarima, Haldejima i gatarima;
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.
Jer velik duh i znanje i razum za kazivanje sanova i pogaðanje zagonetaka i razmršivanje zamršenijeh stvari naðe se u Danila, kojemu car nadje ime Valtasar; neka sada dozovu Danila, i on æe kazati što znaèi.
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?
Tada Danilo bi doveden pred cara. Car progovori Danilu i reèe: jesi li ti Danilo izmeðu roblja Judina koje dovede iz Judejske car otac moj?
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.
Èuh za tebe da je duh svetijeh bogova u tebi, i vidjelo i razum i mudrost velika da se naðe u tebe.
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.
A sada su dovedeni preda me mudarci, zvjezdari, da proèitaju pismo i kažu mi što znaèi; ali ne mogu da kažu što to znaèi.
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.
A za tebe ja èuh da možeš protumaèiti, i zamršene stvari razmrsiti. Ako dakle možeš proèitati ovo pismo i kazati mi što znaèi, obuæi æeš se u skerlet, i zlatnu verižicu nosiæeš o vratu, i biæeš treæi gospodar u carstvu.
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.
Tada odgovori Danilo i reèe pred carem: darovi tvoji neka tebi, i podaj drugomu poklone svoje; a pismo æu ja proèitati caru i kazati što znaèi.
18 O king, the most high God gave to your father Nabuchodonosor a kingdom, and majesty, and honour, and glory:
Care, Bog višnji dade carstvo i velièinu i slavu i èast Navuhodonosoru ocu tvojemu.
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.
I od velièine koju mu dade svi narodi, plemena i jezici drktahu pred njim i bojahu ga se; ubijaše koga hoæaše, i ostavljaše u životu koga hoæaše, uzvišivaše koga hoæaše, i poniživaše koga hoæaše.
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.
Ali kada mu se podiže srce i duh mu se posili u oholosti, bi smetnut s carskoga prijestola svojega, i uzeše mu slavu.
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.
I bi prognan izmeðu ljudi i srce mu posta kao u zvijeri, i stan mu bijaše s divljim magarcima, hraniše ga travom kao goveda, i rosa nebeska kvasi mu tijelo, dokle pozna da Bog višnji vlada carstvom ljudskim, i koga hoæe postavlja nad njim.
22 And you accordingly, his son, O Baltasar, has not humbled your heart before God: know you not all this?
A ti, Valtasare, sine njegov, nijesi ponizio srca svojega premda si znao sve ovo.
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.
Nego si se podigao na Gospoda nebeskoga, i sudove doma njegova donesoše preda te, i piste iz njih vino ti i knezovi tvoji, žene tvoje i inoèe tvoje, i ti hvali bogove srebrne i zlatne, mjedene, gvozdene, drvene i kamene, koji ne vide niti èuju niti razumiju, a ne slavi Boga, u èijoj je ruci duša tvoja i svi putovi tvoji.
24 Therefore from his presence has been sent forth the knuckle of a hand; and he has ordered the writing.
Zato od njega bi poslana ruka i ovo pismo bi napisano.
25 And this is the ordered writing, Mane, Thekel, Phares.
A ovo je pismo napisano: MENE, MENE, TEKEL, UFARSIN.
26 This is the interpretation of the sentence: Mane; God has measured your kingdom, and finished it.
A ovo znaèe te rijeèi: MENE, brojio je Bog tvoje carstvo, i do kraja izbrojio.
27 Thekel; it has been weighed in the balance, and found lacking.
TEKEL, izmjeren si na mjerila, i našao si se lak.
28 Phares; your kingdom is divided, and given to the Medes and Persians.
FERES, razdijeljeno je carstvo tvoje, i dano Midijanima i Persijanima.
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.
Tada zapovjedi Valtasar, te obukoše Danila u skerlet, i metnuše mu zlatnu verižicu oko vrata, i proglasiše za nj da je treæi gospodar u carstvu.
30 In the same night was Baltasar the Chaldean king slain.
Istu noæ bi ubijen Valtasar car Haldejski.
31 And Darius the Mede succeeded to the kingdom, being sixty-two years [old].
A Darije Midijanin preuze carstvo, i bješe mu oko šezdeset i dvije godine.
