Daniel 1
1 In the third year of the reign of Joakim king of Juda, Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon came 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 delivered into his hands Joakim the king of Juda, and part of the vessels of the house of God: and he carried them away into the land of Sennaar, to the house of his god, and the vessels he brought 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 spoke to Asphenez the master of the eunuchs, that he should bring in some of the children of Israel, and of the king’s seed 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 Children in whom there was no blemish, well favoured, and skillful in all wisdom, acute in knowledge, and instructed in science, and such as might stand in the king’s palace, that he might teach them the learning, and the tongue 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 provision, of his own meat, and of the wine of which he drank himself, that being nourished three years, afterwards they might 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 there were among them of the children of Juda, Daniel, Ananias, Misael, and Azarias.
Judah phung leh nam’a kon’a kilheng doh golhang khangdong mili ho chu Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael chuleh Azariah ahiuve.
7 And the master of the eunuchs gave them names: to Daniel, Baltassar: to Ananias, Sidrach: 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 But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not be defiled with the king’s table, nor with the wine which he drank: and he requested the master of the eunuchs that he might not be defiled.
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 And God gave to Daniel grace and mercy in the sight of the prince of the eunuchs.
Hichun, Pathenin, nukiso ho pipu pa lungsung’a chun, Daniel hepina leh gelkhohna ahinpe tan ahi.
10 And the prince of the eunuchs said to Daniel: I fear my lord the king, who hath appointed you meat and drink: who if he should see your faces leaner than those of the other youths your equals, you shall 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 Malasar, whom the prince 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 Try, I beseech thee, thy servants for ten days, and let pulse be given us to eat, and water to drink:
Lungset in, nisom sung nei patepun, kaneh diu anche leh ka don diu twi keoseh bou neipeuvin.
13 And look upon our faces, and the faces of the children that eat of the king’s meat: and as thou shalt see, deal with thy servants.
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 when he had heard these words, he tried them for ten days.
Hichun, Daniel thusei chu, amaho vetup’a pangpan anop pehin, nisom sung apatepin avetai.
15 And after ten days their faces appeared fairer and fatter than all the children that ate of the king’s meat.
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 Malasar took their portions, and the wine that they should drink: and he gave them pulse.
Hichun achinguva pangpa chun, amaho ding’a kigong anneh twitah leh ju hochu aladohin, aneh diuvin anche bou apetai.
17 And to these children God gave knowledge, and understanding in every book, and wisdom: but to Daniel the understanding also of 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 when the days were ended, after which the king had ordered they should be brought in: the prince 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 when the king had spoken to them, there were not found among them all such as Daniel, Ananias, Misael, and Azarias: and they stood in the king’s presence.
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 all matters of wisdom and understanding, that the king inquired of them, he found them ten times better than all the diviners, and wise men, 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 even to the first year of king Cyrus.
Daniel chu, Cyrus lengpa lengchan kal kumkhat lhingei jin, leng inpi lhacha vaihom in apang in ahi.
