Daniel 1
1 In the third year of the reign of Joakim king of Juda, came Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon to Jerusalem, and besieged it.
Judah lengpa, Jehoiakim lengvaipoh kumthum lhin kumin, Babylon lengpa Nebuchadnezzar chu Jerusalem’a ahungin, khopi chu a-umkimin, a-opkhumden tai.
2 And the Lord gave into his hand Joakim king of Juda, and part of the vessels of the house of God: and he brought them into the land of Sennaar to the house of his god; and he brought the vessels into the treasure-house of his god.
Pakaiyin, Nebuchadnezzar chu, Judah lengpa Jehoiakim chung’a galjona apen, lengpa leh Pathen houin’a thil theng phabep ho jong, akhut’a apedoh tai. Hijeh chun Nebuchadnezzar’in, lengpa ahin, thil achom ho chu ahin, abonin Babylon gam’a apolutin, athil ho jouse chu ama pathen Hou-in’a thil kikholna’a chun akoi tai.
3 And the king told Asphanez his chief eunuch, to bring in some of the captive children of Israel, and of the seed of the kingdom, and of the princes;
Chu-in lengpa’n a sepai lamkai Ashpenaz kiti nukiso ho pipua pangpa jah’a, galhing’a hung kikaiho lah’a, Judah lengte insungmi phabep chuleh adang milen milal ho insungmi phabep, ama leng inpia ahinpuilut dingin thu apetai.
4 young men in whom was no blemish, and beautiful in appearance, and skilled in all wisdom, and possessing knowledge, and acquainted with prudence, and who had ability to stand in the house before the king, and the king gave commandment to teach them the learning and language of the Chaldeans.
Aman golhang melpha, chihna leh hetna bukim, tahsa damthei chuleh leng inpia lolhing tah’a lhacha thei ding, holdoh inlang, amaho chu Babylon gam pao leh chondan lekha hil ding chuleh jilsah ding ahiuve, ati.
5 And the king appointed them a daily portion from the king's table, and from the wine which he drank; and [gave orders] to nourish them three years, and [that] afterwards they should stand before the king.
Lengpa’n amaho ding chun, niseh’a ama neh leh don bang bang, an-neh twitah leh don ding ju twitah, agonpehin ahi. Kumthum sung’a amaho chu, kihilna leh kijilna anei uva chujou tahleh, leng inpi vaihom lhacha ding’a lut ding ahiuve.
6 Now these were amongst them of the children of Juda, Daniel, and Ananias, and Azarias, and Misael.
Judah phung leh nam’a kon’a kilheng doh golhang khangdong mili ho chu Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael chuleh Azariah ahiuve.
7 And the chief of the eunuchs gave them names: to Daniel, Baltasar; and to Ananias, Sedrach; and to Misael, Misach; and to Azarias, Abdenago.
Nu-kiso ho lamkai pipu chun, amahose chu, Babylonte minthah asempehin, Daniel chu Belteshazzar, Hananiah chu Shadrach, Mishael chu Meshach chuleh Azariah chu Abednego asah tan ahi.
8 And Daniel purposed in his heart, that he would not defile himself with the king's table, nor with the wine of his drink: and he entreated the chief of the eunuchs that he might not defile himself.
Ahivangin, Daniel chun lengpa’a kon anneh twitah leh don ding ju twitah hung kipe chu, neh’a chuleh don’a ama hinna kisuh boh louna dingin, kigellhahna dettah aneitai. Hijeh chun, aman nukiso ho pipu kom’a chun, lengpa’a kon hung kipe neh leh don hochu, nehdateina dingin phalna athum tai.
9 Now God [had] brought Daniel into favour and compassion with the chief of the eunuchs.
Hichun, Pathenin, nukiso ho pipu pa lungsung’a chun, Daniel hepina leh gelkhohna ahinpe tan ahi.
10 And the chief of the eunuchs said to Daniel, I fear my lord the king, who has appointed your meat and your drink, lest he see your countenances gloomy in comparison of the young men your equals; also shall you endanger my head to the king.
Ahivangin nukiso ho pipu chun, Daniel jah’a, “Nangho ding anneh leh don ding ju, gongtup’a eipansahpa kapu lengpa kakicha lheh e. Ijem-tin, nakibahpi na gol ho sangin namel hung gong hen lang, na tahsa hung lhasam khaleh, nangma jal’a keima lu kitan lo ding ahi, kati aja lheh’e,’’ ati tai.
11 And Daniel said to Amelsad, whom the chief of the eunuchs had appointed over Daniel, Ananias, Misael, [and] Azarias.
Hichun Danielin, nukiso ho pipu pan amaho chu: Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael chuleh Azariah, vetup ding’a atum’a anganse pa jah’a chun, asei tai.
12 Prove now your servants ten days; and let them give us pulse, and let us eat, and let us drink water:
Lungset in, nisom sung nei patepun, kaneh diu anche leh ka don diu twi keoseh bou neipeuvin.
13 And let our countenances be seen by you, and the countenances of the children that eat [at] the king's table; and deal with your servants according as you shall see.
Nisom jou tengleh, lengpa’a kon anneh twitah nea chuleh ju twitah don golhang ho chutoh neivet kah’un. Hichea namubang bang chun, keiho chung’a thulhuhna bol jengin, khoh kasa pouve, ati tai.
14 And he listened to them, and proved them ten days.
Hichun, Daniel thusei chu, amaho vetup’a pangpan anop pehin, nisom sung apatepin avetai.
15 And at the end of the ten days their countenances appeared fairer and stouter in flesh, than the children that fed at the king's table.
Nisom lhinin, lengpa anneh twitah leh ju twitah’a kivah golhang ho sangin, Daniel leh aloi mithum ho chu, amel’u ahoijoh’a chuleh atahsa’u jong adamthei joh chu, mudoh ahitauve.
16 So Amelsad took away their supper and the wine of their drink, and gave them pulse.
Hichun achinguva pangpa chun, amaho ding’a kigong anneh twitah leh ju hochu aladohin, aneh diuvin anche bou apetai.
17 And [as for] these four children, God gave them understanding and prudence in all learning and wisdom: and Daniel had understanding in all visions and dreams.
Pathenin hiche golhang li ho chu, midang ho sangin chihna, thepna chuleh ijakai hetna apen ahi. Chuleh adehsetin, Daniel chu, themgao thu leh mang ho hetna leh ledoh theina apen ahi.
18 And at the end of the days, [after] which the king had given orders to bring them in, then the chief of the eunuchs brought them in before Nabuchodonosor.
Akijilnau phatsung alhin tah chun, lengpa thupeh dungyuijin, nukiso ho pipu chun, amaho chu abon’un Nebuchadnezzar lengpa angsung’a ahin pui lut tai.
19 And the king spoke with them; and there were not found out of them all any like Daniel, and Ananias and Misael, and Azarias: and they stood before the king.
Lengpa’n amaho chu akihoupin ahileh, Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael chuleh Azariah ho chung’a alung lhei bang chun, midang koima chung’a amu tapoi. Hijeh chun, amaho chu leng inpia lhacha vaihom in alut tauvin ahi.
20 And in every matter of wisdom and knowledge wherein the king questioned them, he found them ten times wiser than all the enchanters and sorcerers that were in all his kingdom.
Hichun lengpa’n amaho chu, chihna leh hetkhenna pum’a thutan vaihomna thuho adoh’a akihoupina-a chun, alenggam sung pumpia mitpheldoi themho leh ai-lhim themho jouse sangin, ale som in athemjo uve ti amudoh tan ahi.
21 And Daniel continued till the first year of king Cyrus.
Daniel chu, Cyrus lengpa lengchan kal kumkhat lhingei jin, leng inpi lhacha vaihom in apang in ahi.
