< Daniel 5 >

1 Belshazzar, the king, made a great feast for a thousand of his nobles, and each one of them drank according to his age.
Nangbuangay ni Belsazar nga ari iti dakkel a padaya para iti sangaribu a natakneng a tattaona, ket imminom isuna iti arak iti sangoananda amin a sangaribu.
2 And so, when they were drunk, he instructed that the vessels of gold and silver should be brought, which Nebuchadnezzar, his father, had carried away from the temple, which was in Jerusalem, so that the king, and his nobles, and his wives, and the concubines, might drink from them.
Kabayatan a ramramanan ni Belsazar ti arak, pinaalana dagiti tasa a naaramid iti balitok wenno pirak nga innala ni Nebucadnesar nga amana iti templo idiay Jerusalem, a paginumanna, dagiti natakneng a tattaona, ken dagiti assawana ken dagiti inkabbalayna.
3 Then the gold and silver vessels were presented, which he had carried away from the temple and which had been in Jerusalem, and the king, and his nobles, wives, and concubines, drank from them.
Impan dagiti adipen dagiti balitok a tasa nga innala ni Nebucadnesar iti templo, a balay ti Dios idiay Jerusalem. Imminom manipud kadagitoy ti ari, dagiti natakneng a tattaona, ken dagiti assawana ken inkabbalayna.
4 They drank wine, and they praised their gods of gold, and silver, brass, iron, and wood and stone.
Ininomda ti arak ken dinayawda dagiti didiosenda a naaramid iti balitok ken pirak, bronse, landok, kayo ken bato.
5 In the same hour, there appeared fingers, as of the hand of a man, writing on the surface of the wall, opposite the candlestick, in the king’s palace. And the king observed the part of the hand that wrote.
Iti dayta a tiempo nagparang dagiti ramay ti ima ti maysa a tao iti sango iti pagsilawan ket nagsurat iti napalitadaan a diding iti palasio ti ari. Makitkita ti ari ti paset ti ima bayat nga agsursurat daytoy.
6 Then the king’s countenance was changed, and his thoughts disturbed him, and he lost his self-control, and his knees knocked against one other.
Ket nagbaliw ti rupa ti ari ket nagbuteng isuna; saan isuna a matengngel dagiti sakana, ken agkutkutokot dagiti tumengna.
7 And the king cried out loudly for them to bring in the astrologers, Chaldeans, and soothsayers. And the king proclaimed to the wise men of Babylon, saying, “Whoever will read this writing and make known to me its interpretation will be clothed with purple, and will have a golden chain on his neck, and will be third in my kingdom.”
Impukkaw nga imbilin ti ari a pastrekenda dagiti mangibagbaga a makasaritada dagiti natay, dagiti nasirib a lallaki, ken dagiti astrologo. Kinuna ti ari kadagiti nalatak gapu iti kinasiribda idiay Babilonia, “Ti siasinoman a makaipalawag iti daytoy a surat ken ti kaipapananna ket makawesanto iti lila ken makuentasanto iti balitok. Maaddaanto isuna iti turay a kas maikatlo a kangangatoan a mangituray iti pagarian.”
8 Then, in came all the wise men of the king, but they could neither read the writing, nor reveal the interpretation to the king.
Ket simrek dagiti amin a tattao ti ari a nalatak gapu iti kinasiribda, ngem saanda a mabasa ti surat wenno mailawlawag iti ari ti kaipapanan daytoy.
9 Therefore, king Belshazzar was quite confused, and his face was altered, and even his nobles were disturbed.
Ket nagdanag ti kasta unay ni Ari Belsazar ket nagbaliw ti langa ti rupana. Nariribukan dagiti nalatak a tattaona.
10 But the queen, because of what had happened to the king and his nobles, entered the banquet house. And she spoke out, saying, “O king, live forever. Do not let your thoughts confuse you, neither should your face be altered.
Ita, simrek ti reyna nga ina ni Belsazar iti balay a pagrarambakan gapu iti kinuna ti ari ken dagiti natakneng a tattao. Kinuna ti reyna nga ina ni Belsazar, “O Ari, agbiagka iti agnanayon! Saanka koma a mariribukan. Saanmo koma nga ipalubos nga agbaliw ti langam.
11 There is a man in your kingdom, who has the spirit of the holy gods within himself, and in the days of your father, knowledge and wisdom were found in him. For king Nebuchadnezzar, your father, appointed him leader of the astrologers, enchanters, Chaldeans, and soothsayers, even your father, I say to you, O king.
Adda maysa a tao iti pagariam nga addaan iti espiritu dagiti nasantoan a didios. Kadagiti aldaw ni amam, masarakan kenkuana ti lawag, pannakaawat ken kinasirib a kasla iti sirib dagiti didios. Pinagbalin isuna ni Ari Nebucadnesar, ti amam nga ari, a panguloen dagiti salamangkero, kasta met a panguloen dagiti mangibagbaga a makasaritada dagiti natay, dagiti nasirib a lallaki, ken dagiti astrologo.
12 For a greater spirit, and foresight, and understanding, and interpretation of dreams, and the revealing of secrets, and the solution to difficulties were found in him, that is, in Daniel, to whom the king gave the name Belteshazzar. Now, therefore, let Daniel be summoned, and he will explain the interpretation.”
Adda naisangsangayan a kabaelanna, pannakaammo, pannakaawat, mangipalawag iti kaipapanan dagiti tagtagainep, mangipalawag kadagiti burburtia ken mangrisut kadagiti parikut—masarakan dagitoy a kababalin kenni Daniel, a pinanaganan ti ari iti Beltesazar. Ita paayabam ni Daniel ket ibagananto kenka ti kayat a sawen ti naisurat.”
13 Then Daniel was brought in before the king. And the king spoke to him, saying, “Are you Daniel, of the sons of the captivity of Judah, whom my father the king led out of Judea?
Ket naipan ni Daniel iti sangoanan ti ari. Kinuna ti ari kenkuana, “Sika dayta a Daniel, a maysa kadagiti tattao a naipanaw a kas balud ti Juda, nga inruar ti amak nga ari manipud iti Juda.
14 I have heard of you, that you have the spirit of the gods, and that greater knowledge, as well as understanding and wisdom, have been found in you.
Nangngegko ti maipapan kenka, nga adda kenka ti espiritu dagiti didios, ken masarakan kenka ti lawag, pannakaawat ken naisangsangayan a kinasirib.
15 And now the wise astrologers have entered into my presence, so as to read this writing and to reveal to me its interpretation. And they were not able to tell me the meaning of this writing.
Ket ita, naiyeg iti sangoanak dagiti lallaki a nalatak gapu iti kinasiribda ken dagiti mangibagbaga a makasaritada dagiti natay tapno basaenda daytoy a naisurat ken tapno maipakaammo kaniak iti kaipapananna daytoy, ngem saanda a maibaga ti kaipapananna.
16 Furthermore, I have heard about you that you can interpret obscure things and solve difficulties. So then, if you succeed in reading the writing, and in revealing its interpretation, you will be clothed with purple, and you will have a chain of gold around your neck, and you will be the third leader in my kingdom.”
Nadamagko a kabaelam nga ibaga ti kaipapanan ken risuten dagiti parikut. Ita no kabaelam a basaen ti nakasurat ken maibagam kaniak ti kayatna a sawen, makawesanka iti lila ken makuentasanka iti balitok, ket maaddaankanto iti turay a kas maikatlo a kangangatoan a mangituray iti pagarian.”
17 To this Daniel responded by saying directly to the king, “Your rewards should be for yourself, and the gifts of your house you may give to another, but I will read to you the writing, O king, and I will reveal to you its interpretation.
Ket simmungbat ni Daniel iti ari, “O ari, kukuam lattan dagiti sagutmo, ket itedmo dagiti panggunggonam iti sabali a tao. Nupay kasta, basaek ti nakasurat para kenka, O ari, ken ibagak kenka ti kayatna a sawen.
18 O king, the Most High God gave to Nebuchadnezzar, your father, a kingdom and greatness, glory and honor.
No maipapan kenka, O ari, inted ti Kangangatoan a Dios kenni Nebucadnesar nga amam ti pagarian, kinatan-ok, dayaw, ken dayag.
19 And because of the greatness that he gave to him, all peoples, tribes, and languages trembled and were afraid of him. Whomever he wished, he put to death; and whomever he wished, he destroyed; and whomever he wished, he exalted; and whomever he wished, he lowered.
Gapu iti kinatan-ok nga inted kenkuana ti Dios, nagpigerger ken nagbuteng kenkuana dagiti amin a tattao, nasion ken pagsasao. Pinatayna dagiti kayatna a matay, ket pagtalinaedenna a sibibiag dagiti kayatna nga agbiag. Intag-ayna dagiti kayatna, ken impababana dagiti tinarigagayanna nga ipababa.
20 But when his heart was lifted up and his spirit was hardened in arrogance, he was deposed from the throne of his kingdom and his glory was taken away.
Ngem idi pimmalangguad ti pusona ken timmangken ti espirituna, nagtignay isuna a sitatangsit, naipababa isuna manipud iti naarian a tronona, ket napukawna ti kinadayagna.
21 And he was expelled from the sons of men, and so his heart was placed with the beasts, and his dwelling was with the wild donkeys, and he ate hay like an ox, and his body was drenched with the dew of heaven, until he realized that the Most High holds power over the kingdom of men, and that whoever he wishes, he will set over it.
Napatalaw isuna manipud iti ayan dagiti tattao, nagpanunot isuna a kasla maysa nga ayup, ken nakipagnaed isuna kadagiti atap nga asno. Nangan isuna iti ruot a kasla iti maysa a baka. Nabasa ti bagina kadagiti linna-aw manipud kadagiti langit agingga a nabigbigna nga iturturayan ti Kangangatoan a Dios dagiti pagarian dagiti tattao ket isasaadna kadakuada ti siasinoman a kayatna.
22 Likewise, you, his son Belshazzar, have not humbled your heart, though you knew all these things.
Sika Belsazar a putotna, saanmo nga impakumbaba ti pusom, nupay ammom amin dagitoy.
23 But you have lifted yourself up against the Lord of heaven. And the vessels of his house have been presented before you. And you, and your nobles, and your wives, and your concubines, have drunk wine from them. Likewise, you have praised the gods of silver, and gold, and brass, iron, and wood and stone, who neither see, nor hear, nor feel, yet you have not glorified the God who holds your breath and all your ways in his hand.
Nagpasindayagka a maibusor iti Apo ti langit. Manipud iti balayna inyegda kenka dagiti alikamen a naginomam iti arak, dagiti natakneng a tattaom, dagiti assawam ken dagiti inkabbalaymo, ket dinaydayawyo dagiti didiosen a naaramid iti pirak ken balitok, bronse, landok, kayo ken bato—dagiti didiosen a saan a makakita, makangngeg, wenno makaammo iti aniaman a banag. Saanmo a dinayaw ti Dios a mangtengtengngel iti angesmo babaen iti imana ken makaammo iti amin a wagasmo.
24 Therefore, he has sent the part of the hand which has written this, which has been inscribed.
Ket nangibaon ti Dios iti maysa nga ima manipud iti sangoananna ket naisurat daytoy.
25 But this is the writing that has been decreed: MANE, THECEL, PHARES.
Daytoy ti naisurat: MENE, MENE, TEKEL, UPHARSIN.
26 And this is the interpretation of the words. MANE: God has numbered your kingdom and has finished it.
Daytoy ti kayatna a sawen: MENE, ‘nabilangen’ ti Dios ti panagpaut ti pagariam ket umadanin nga agpatingga.
27 THECEL: you have been weighed on the scales and found lacking.
TEKEL, ‘natimbangkan’ ket nasarakan a nagkurangka.
28 PHARES: your kingdom has been divided and has been given to the Medes and the Persians.
PERES, ‘nabingayen’ ti pagariam ket naited kadagiti taga-Medo ken taga-Persia.”
29 Then, by the king’s command, Daniel was dressed with purple, and a chain of gold was placed around his neck, and it was proclaimed of him that he held power as the third in the kingdom.
Ket imbilin ni Belsazar, ket kinawesanda ni Daniel iti lila a lupot. Nakuentasan isuna iti balitok, ket inwaragawag ti ari iti maipanggep kenkuana nga isuna iti maikatlo a kangangatoan a mangituray iti pagarian.
30 That same night, king Belshazzar the Chaldean was killed.
Iti dayta a rabii napapatay ni Belsazar nga ari ti Babilonia,
31 And Darius the Mede succeeded to the kingdom, at the age of sixty-two years.
ket inawat ni Dario a taga-Medes ti pagarian idi agtawen isuna iti innem a pulo ket dua.
