< Daniel 6 >
1 It pleased Darius to set over the kingdom a hundred and twenty satraps, who should be in all the kingdom;
Darius kiti Mede mipa chun, a lenggam pumpi chu gamkai ja le somni soding adeiyin, hitichun ahomkhen tai. Chuleh hiche gamkai ho’a vaipo ding in gamkai khat’a mikhat cheh apansah tai.
2 and over these, three presidents — of whom Daniel was one — to whom these satraps should render account, and that the king should suffer no loss.
Gamkai vaipo ho jouse chung’a avesui ding leh vaihom pipu dingin, lengpan Daniel leh midang mini jong apansah tan ahi. Amaho cheng hin lengpa lungdei aboluva, gamkai vaipo ho toh je ahil ding’u chuleh lenggam aventup ding’u ahi.
3 Now this Daniel surpassed the presidents and the satraps, because an excellent spirit was in him; and the king thought to appoint him over the whole realm.
Chomlou kah in, vaihom pipu mini leh gamkai vaipo ho sangin, Daniel chu natoh thilbol athemjo tan, chuleh imalam jousea ahung minthang tan ahi. Daniel chung’a Pathen lhagao achen jing jeh chun midang ho sang in natoh thilbol thepna aneiyin, hijeh chun lengpan, alenggam vaipi po’a vetup ding in Daniel chu agong tan ahi.
4 Then the presidents and the satraps sought to find a pretext against Daniel with respect to the kingdom; but they could not find any pretext or fault; inasmuch as he was faithful, neither was there any error or fault found in him.
Chuphat in, vaihom pipu mini toh gamvaipo ho chun, gamsung kivaihomna dol’a Daniel bolkhel themmo chansah nading aholuvin, ahivang in amudoh jou pouvin ahi. Ajeh chu, Daniel chu kitah tah leh thudihtah’a thilbol ahin, chuleh amopohna-a son umtah leh Pathen ging’a natong ahi.
5 Then said these men, We shall not find any pretext against this Daniel, unless we find [it] against him touching the law of his God.
Chuin amaho akihouvun, “Daniel themmo chansah nading chu, ama Pathen houna thudol tilouvin, thildang ima eihon ibol thei ding’u aum poi.’’ ati tauve.
6 Then these presidents and satraps came in a body to the king, and said thus unto him: King Darius, live for ever!
Hijeh chun, vaihom pipu mini toh gamkai vaipo hochu, lengpa kom’a acheuvin, ajah a: Lengpa Darius Hingsot in!
7 All the presidents of the kingdom, the prefects, and the satraps, the counsellors, and the governors have consulted together to establish a royal statute, and to make a firm decree, that whosoever shall ask a petition of any god or man for thirty days, except of thee, O king, he shall be cast into the den of lions.
Na lenggam sung’a vaihom pipuho, vaihom thuneiho, gamkai vaipo ho, thumop’a pang ho, chuleh miching mithem ho cheng in, kihou lhuhna khat kaneijun: Vo lengpa, nangman dankhat na phudoh ding, amitakip in khoutah’a juicheh ding katiuve. Hichu, ni somthum sung’a mihem kom hihen chuleh pathen houna hijong leh, koiman nangkom tilouva taona leh thumna anei theilou ding, hiche hi ajuilou leh apalkeh aum leh sakei bahkai kulsung’a selut ding, tin thupeh bolin.
8 Now, O king, establish the decree, and sign the writing, that it be not changed, according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which may not be revoked.
Chuleh vo lengpa, tun hiche dan kisem chu khellou dingin khut henna bolkhumin, chuleh phongdoh in, hichu Mede mite leh Persia mite danthu dungjuiya avel’a kiladoh kitlou ding ahitai,’’ atiuve.
9 Therefore king Darius signed the writing and the decree.
Hijeh chun Darius lengpan, hiche dan kisem chu khut-hen abol khum tai.
10 And when Daniel knew that the writing was signed, he went into his house; and, his windows being open in his upper chamber toward Jerusalem, he kneeled on his knees three times a day, and prayed and gave thanks before his God, as he did aforetime.
Chuin lengpan dan kisem chu khut-hen abolkhum taiti Daniel in ahetdoh phat chun, a-in lam’ah achen, a-indan chungnung’a alut in, Jerusalem lang ngan bangkot ahong in, abol jing bang chun adilsun atao tai. Aman aphat seh’a abolji bang chun, nikhat sungin a Pathen heng’a thangvahna thumvei anei jing in ahi.
11 But those men came in a body, and found Daniel praying and making supplication before his God.
Hichun miphalou vaipo ho chu Daniel chenna in-ah chun acheuvin ahileh, Daniel chu, a Pathen heng’a taona aneipet agamu tauvin ahi.
12 Then they came near, and spoke before the king concerning the king's decree: Hast thou not signed a decree, that every man that shall ask [anything] of any god or man within thirty days, except of thee, O king, shall be cast into the den of lions? The king answered and said, The thing is true, according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which may not be revoked.
Chutah chun amaho jong lengpa kom ajonpaiyun, dan kisem chung chang thu aseijun, Daniel hehnan aneiyun, lengpa jah’a, “Vo lengpa, ni somthum sung’a nangkom tilouva, mihem hihen chuleh Pathen houna hijong leh, koiman taona anei theilou ding, hiche hi ajuilou leh apalkeh aumleh, sakei bahkai kulsung’a selut ding tia dan kisem chu, nangma tah in khut-henna na bolkhum hitalou ham?” atiuve. Lengpan adonbut in, “Hiche dan kiphutdoh hi, Mede mite leh Persia mite danthua umjing ding, kiladoh lou ding ahitai,’’ ati.
13 Then they answered and said before the king, That Daniel, who is of the children of the captivity of Judah, regardeth not thee, O king, nor the decree that thou hast signed, but maketh his petition three times a day.
Hichun amahon jong lengpa chu adonbut’un, “Vo lengpa, Judah gam’a kon sohchang’a hung kikai holah’a, Daniel kitipa chun na thupeh adonse pon chuleh nakhut- hennasa dan kisem jong chu imalouvin akoiyin, nikhat sungin abolngai ngaijin, aPathen kom’a thumvei atao jing’e’’ atiuvin, aheh tauve.
14 Then the king, when he heard these words, was sore distressed thereby, and set his heart on Daniel to save him; and he laboured till the going down of the sun to deliver him.
Hiche thuhi ajahdoh phat in, lengpa chu hatah in along gim tai. Aman Daniel chu huhdoh teina ding angaiton, lunggil tah in agelpan tai. Hiche boina-a kon’a Daniel lhadoh teina ding lampi aholin, nilhum keijin akigeltan ahi.
15 Then these men came in a body unto the king, and said unto the king, Know, O king, that the law of the Medes and Persians is, That no decree nor statute which the king establisheth may be changed.
Nilhah ahiphat chun, miho chu lengpa heng’a achekhomun, ajah a aseitauve, “Vo lengpa, Mede mite leh Persia mite danthu dungjuiya lengpan khut-hen abol khumsa dan chu kikhel theilou ahi, nangmatah in nahet ahi,’’atiuve.
16 Then the king commanded, and they brought Daniel, and cast [him] into the den of lions. The king spoke and said unto Daniel, Thy God whom thou servest continually, he will save thee.
Hichun alou theilouvin Daniel chu mat dingin, lengpan thu apetan, agaman tauve. Chuleh sakei bahkai kulsung’a chun aseplut tauvin ahi. Lengpan Daniel jah’a, “Kitah tah’a nahou jing na Pathen chun na huhdoh hen” ati.
17 And a stone was brought, and laid upon the mouth of the den; and the king sealed it with his own signet, and with the signet of his nobles, that the purpose might not be changed concerning Daniel.
Chuin songpi khat atanglutuvin, sakei bahkai kulkot chu asing tauve. Chuleh songpi chung’a chun lengpa leh amilen milal hon Mohor in melchihna anom khum cheh tauvin ahi. Hichu koiman Daniel chu agalha dohlou nading’a abol’u ahi.
18 Then the king went to his palace, and passed the night fasting; neither were concubines brought before him; and his sleep fled from him.
Chuin lengpa jong lung oilou tahin a-inpia akile tai. Ajan chun an angolin, imutheilouvin akhovah tai. Chuleh angaina-a kibolji golnop jong abol tapouve.
19 Then the king arose with the light at break of day, and went in haste unto the den of lions.
Ajing jingkah matah in, lengpa chu athoudohloijin, sakei bahkai kul langchu kinotah in ajontai.
20 And when he came near unto the den, he cried with a mournful voice unto Daniel: the king spoke and said unto Daniel, O Daniel, servant of the living God, hath thy God whom thou servest continually been able to save thee from the lions?
Chuin amun alhunphat chun, aman lung natah in apeng jah in, “Vo Daniel, Pathen hingjing sohpa! Kitahtah’a nahou jing na Pathen chun sakei bahkai lah’a kon’a na huhdoh hinam?’’ ati.
21 Then Daniel spoke unto the king, O king, live for ever!
Daniel in adonbut in, “Vo lengpa hingsot in!”
22 My God hath sent his angel, and hath shut the lions' mouths, that they have not hurt me; forasmuch as before him innocence was found in me; and also before thee, O king, have I done no hurt.
“Ka Pathen chun a vantil ahinsol lhan, sakei bahkai ho kam asippeh in, eisu khapouve. Ajeh chu Pakai mitmun keima nolna beijin ka um’e, chuleh nangma angsung’a jong suhkhel ka neipoi, Vo! lengpa’’ ahinti.
23 Thereupon was the king exceeding glad, and commanded that they should take Daniel up out of the den. So Daniel was taken up out of the den, and no manner of hurt was found upon him, because he believed in his God.
Chutah chun lengpa jong akipah behseh jeng in, Daniel chu sakei bahkai kul sung’a kon’a lahdoh loi dingin thu apetai. Aman a Pathen dettah’a atahsan jal chun, atahsa chung’a maha imacha aum poi.
24 And the king commanded, and they brought those men who had accused Daniel, and cast them into the den of lions, them, their children, and their wives; and the lions had the mastery of them, and broke all their bones in pieces ere they came to the bottom of the den.
Chuin lengpan thupeh abolin, Daniel chunga dihlou tah’a hehsetna anabol hochu amandoh un, amaho leh ajite chuleh achate jouse jong abon’un, sakei bahkai kul sung’a chun alehlut tauve. Hichun, tol’a achuh masang’un, sakei bahkai hon aman’un, abottel tel gamset tauvin ahi.
25 Then king Darius wrote unto all peoples, nations, and languages, that dwell in all the earth: Peace be multiplied unto you.
Chuin Darius lengpan, leiset pumpia chitin namtin’a miho leh pao tintang tho ho heng’a, hiche thuhi athot tai, “Na chunguva cham leh kipana chuleh khantouna umhen!”
26 I make a decree, That in every dominion of my kingdom men tremble and fear before the God of Daniel; for he is the living God, and steadfast for ever, and his kingdom [that] which shall not be destroyed, and his dominion shall be even unto the end.
Keiman hiche thugahna hi kabol ahi, kalenggam sung pumpia amitakip’in, Daniel Pathen chu gingsoh hen chuleh kihot hot pumin jabol cheh hen. Ajeh chu amahi Pathen Hingjing ahin, Chuleh a tonsot geija thohjou jing Pathen ahi. Alenggam jong a itih’a kisumang louding, Chuleh alengvai pohna jong beitih umlou ding ahi.
27 He saveth and delivereth, and he worketh signs and wonders in the heavens and on the earth: who hath saved Daniel from the power of the lions.
Aman amite aholdohjin chuleh ahuhhing ji'e. Chuleh aman van leh leiset chung’a melchihna kidang ho leh bolmo kidang ho aboljin ahi. Aman sakei bahkai ho lah’a konin Daniel jong ana huhdoh’e.
28 And this Daniel prospered in the reign of Darius, and in the reign of Cyrus the Persian.
Hiche jeh chun, Darius lengvaipoh sung leh Persia mi Cyrus lengvaipoh sung chun, Daniel chu akhangtou jing jeng tai.
