< Daniel 2 >
1 In the second year of the reign of Nabuchodonosor, Nabuchodonosor had a dream, and his spirit was terrified, and his dream went out of his mind.
Iti maikadua a tawen ti panagturay ni Nebucadnesar, nagtagtagainep isuna. Nariribukan isuna, ket saanen a makaturog.
2 Then the king commanded to call together the diviners and the wise men, and the magicians, and the Chaldeans: to declare to the king his dreams: so they came and stood before the king.
Ket pinaayaban ti ari dagiti salamangkero ken dagiti mangibagbaga a kabaelanda ti makisarita kadagiti natay. Pinaayabanna pay dagiti managanito ken dagiti nasirib a lallaki. Kayatna nga ibagada kenkuana ti maipapan kadagiti tagtagainepna. Isu a simrekda ket nagtakderda iti sangoanan ti ari.
3 And the king said to them: I saw a dream: and being troubled in mind I know not what I saw.
Kinuna ti ari kadakuada, “Nagtagtagainepak, ket magagaranak a mangammo iti kayat a sawen ti tagtagainep.”
4 And the Chaldeans answered the king in Syriac: O king, live for ever: tell to thy servants thy dream, and we will declare the interpretation thereof.
Ket nakisarita dagiti nasirib a lallaki iti ari babaen iti pagsasao nga Arameo, “O Ari, agbiagka iti agnanayon! Ibagam ti tagtagainep kadakami nga adipenmo, ket ibagami ti kaipapananna.”
5 And the king answering said to the Chaldeans: The thing is gone out of my mind: unless you tell me the dream, and the meaning thereof, you shall be put to death, and your houses shall be confiscated.
Insungbat ti ari kadagiti nasirib a lallaki, “Naikeddengen daytoy a banag. No saanyo a maibaga ti tagtagainep kaniak ken ti kaipapanan daytoy, marangrangkayto dagiti bagiyo ken agbalin a gabsuon dagiti rugit dagiti balayyo.
6 But if you tell the dream, and the meaning of it, you shall receive of me rewards, and gifts, and great honour: therefore tell me the dream, and the interpretation thereof.
Ngem no maibagayo kaniak ti tagtagainep ken ti kaipapanan daytoy, makaawatkayo kadagiti sagut manipud kaniak, maysa a gunggona ken dakkel a pammadayaw. Isu nga ibagayo kaniak ti tagtagainep ken ti kaipapanan daytoy.”
7 They answered again and said: Let the king tell his servants the dream, and we will declare the interpretation of it.
Insungbatda manen ket kinunada, “Ibaga koma ti ari kadakami nga adipenna, ti tagtagainep ket ibagami kenka ti kaipapanan daytoy.”
8 The king answered, and said: I know for certain that you seek to gain time, since you know that the thing is gone from me.
Simmungbat ti ari, “Ammok a kayatyo ti at-atiddog pay a tiempo gapu ta makitayo ti natibker a pangngeddengko maipapan iti daytoy.
9 If therefore you tell me not the dream, there is one sentence concerning you, that you have also framed a lying interpretation, and full of deceit, to speak before me till the time pass away. Tell me therefore the dream, that I may know that you also give a true interpretation thereof.
Ngem no saanyo a maibaga kaniak ti tagtagainep, maysa laeng ti sentensia para kadakayo. Inkeddengyo ti mangisagana iti palso ken manangallilaw a sasao a nagnunumoanyo nga ibaga kaniak agingga nga agbaliw ti panunotko. Isu nga Ibagayo kaniak ti tagtagainep, ket maammoak a kabaelanyo nga ibaga ti kaipapanan daytoy para kaniak.”
10 Then the Chaldeains answered before the king, and said: There is no man upon earth, that can accomplish thy word, O king, neither doth any king, though great and mighty, ask such a thing of any diviner, or wise man, or Chaldean.
Insungbat dagiti nasirib a lallaki iti ari, “Awan ti uray maysa a tao iti daga a makabael a mangibaga iti kalikagum ti ari. Awan ti nabileg ken mannakabalin nga ari ti agkalikagum iti kasta manipud iti siasinoman a salamangkero, wenno manipud iti siasinoman a mangibagbaga a kabaelanda ti makisarita kadagiti natay wenno manipud iti maysa a nasirib a tao.
11 For the thing that thou askest, O king, is difficult; nor can any one be found that can shew it before the king, except the gods, whose conversation is not with men.
Narigat ti kalkalikaguman ti ari, ket awan ti siasinoman a makaibaga iti daytoy iti ari malaksid kadagiti didios, ket saanda a makipagnanaed kadagiti tattao.”
12 Upon hearing this, the king in fury, and in great wrath, commanded that all the wise men of Babylon should be put to death.
Daytoy ti nangpaunget ken nangpapungtot unay iti ari, ket imbilinna a mapapatay dagiti amin nga adda iti Babilonia a nalatak gapu iti kinasiribda.
13 And the decree being gone forth, the wise men were slain: and Daniel and his companions were sought for, to be put to death.
Isu a naiwaragawag ti bilin. Mapapatay dagiti amin a nalatak gapu iti kinasiribda; binirokda ni Daniel ken dagiti gagayyemna tapno mapapatayda met.
14 Then Daniel inquired concerning the law and the sentence, of Arioch the general of the king’s army, who was gone forth to kill the wise men of Babylon.
Ket simmungbat ni Daniel nga addaan iti kinaannad ken kinatimbeng kenni Arioc a pangulo dagiti guardia ti ari, nga immay a mangpapatay kadagiti amin a nalatak idiay Babilonia gapu iti kinasiribda.
15 And he asked him that had received the orders of the king, why so cruel a sentence was gone forth from the face of the king. And when Arioch had told the matter to Daniel,
Sinaludsod ni Daniel iti panguloen dagiti guardia ti ari, “Apay a naganat unay ti bilin ti ari?” Imbaga ngarud ni Arioc kenni Daniel ti napasamak.
16 Daniel went in and desired of the king, that he would give him time to resolve the question and declare it to the king.
Kalpasanna, simrek ni Daniel ket kiniddawna a mangikeddeng ti ari iti tiempo tapno maibagana ti kaipapanan ti tagtagainep iti ari.
17 And he went into his house, and told the matter to Ananias, and Misael, and Azarias his companions:
Kalpasanna, nagawid ni Daniel ket inlawlawagna kada Hananias, Misael, ken Azarias ti napasamak.
18 To the end that they should ask mercy at the face of the God of heaven concerning this secret, and that Daniel and his companions might not perish with the rest of the wise men of Babylon.
Ginuyugoyna ida nga agpakaasida iti Dios ti langit maipapan iti daytoy a misterio tapno saanda a mapapatay a kaduada dagiti dadduma a lallaki ti Babilonia a nalatak gapu iti kinasiribda.
19 Then was the mystery revealed to Daniel by a vision in the night: and Daniel blessed the God of heaven,
Iti dayta a rabii, naiparang kenni Daniel ti palimed babaen iti maysa a sirmata. Ket dinaydayaw ni Daniel ti Dios ti langit
20 And speaking he said: Blessed be the name of the Lord from eternity and for evermore: for wisdom and fortitude are his.
ket kinunana, “Madaydayaw ti nagan ti Dios iti agnanayon nga awan patinggana; ta kukuana ti kinasirib ken pannakabalin.
21 And he changeth times and ages: taketh away kingdoms and establisheth them, giveth wisdom to the wise, and knowledge to them that have understanding.
Balbaliwanna dagiti tiempo ken dagiti panawen; Ik-ikkatenna dagiti ari ket isasaadna dagiti ari kadagiti tronoda. Ik-ikkanna iti kinasirib dagiti nasirib ken ik-ikkanna iti pannakaammo dagiti addaan pannakaawat.
22 He revealeth deep and hidden things, and knoweth what is in darkness: and light is with him.
Iparparangna dagiti nauneg ken nailemmeng a banbanag gapu ta ammona no ania ti adda iti kasipngetan, ken agnanaed kenkuana ti lawag.
23 To thee, O God of our fathers, I give thanks, and I praise thee: because thou hast given me wisdom and strength: and now thou hast shewn me what we desired of thee, for thou hast made known to us, the king’s discourse.
O Dios dagiti kapuonak, agyaman ken agdaydayawak kenka gapu iti kinasirib ken pannakabalin nga intedmo kaniak. Ita, impakaammom kaniak ti inkararagmi kenka; impakaammom kadakami ti banag a pakaseknan ti ari.”
24 After this Daniel went in to Arioch, to whom the king had given orders to destroy the wise men of Babylon, and he spoke thus to him: Destroy not the wise men of Babylon: bring me in before the king, and I will tell the solution to the king.
Gapu amin kadagitoy, napan ni Daniel kenni Ariok, ti dinutokan ti ari a mangpapatay kadagiti amin a nasirib iti Babilonia. Napan ket kinunana kenkuana, “Saanmo a papatayen dagiti nasirib a lallaki iti Babilonia. Kadduaannak a mapan iti sangoanan ti ari ket ibagak ti kaipapanan ti tagtagainep iti ari.”
25 Then Arioch in haste brought in Daniel to the king, and said to him: I have found a man of the children of the captivity of Juda, that will resolve the question to the king.
Ket dagus nga impan ni Arioc ni Daniel iti sangoanan ti ari ket kinunana, “Nakasapulak iti maysa a lalaki manipud kadagiti napagtalaw a kas balud ti Juda a makaibaga iti kaipapanan ti tagtagainep ti ari.”
26 The king answered, and said to Daniel, whose name was Baltassar: Thinkest thou indeed that thou canst tell me the dream that I saw, and the interpretation thereof?
Kinuna ti ari kenni Daniel (a naawagan iti Beltesazar), “Kabaelam kadi nga ibaga kaniak ti natagtagainepko ken ti kaipapanan daytoy?”
27 And Daniel made answer before the king, and said: The secret that the king desireth to know, none of the wise men, or the philosophers, or the diviners, or the soothsayers can declare to the king.
Simmungbat ni Daniel iti ari ket kinunana, “Ti misterio a kinalikaguman ti ari ket a saan a maibaga dagiti addaan iti kinasirib, wenno dagiti mangibagbaga a kabaelanda ti makisarita kadagiti natay, wenno dagiti salamangkero, ken saan a maibaga dagiti astrologo.
28 But there is a God in heaven that revealeth mysteries, who hath shewn to thee, O king Nabuchodonosor, what is to come to pass in the latter times. Thy dream, and the visions of thy head upon thy bed, are these:
Nupay kasta, adda Dios nga agnanaed kadagiti langit, a mangiparparangarang kadagiti palimed, ket impakaammona kenka, O Ari Nebucadnezar, dagiti mapasamakto kadagiti sumaruno nga al-aldaw. Ti tagtagainepmo ken dagiti sirmata iti panunotmo bayat nga agid-iddaka iti pagiddaam ket dagitoy:
29 Thou, O king, didst begin to think in thy bed, what should come to pass hereafter: and he that revealeth mysteries shewed thee what shall come to pass.
No maipapan kenka, O ari, dagiti panpanunotem iti pagiddaam ket maipapan kadagiti banbanag a mapasamakto iti masakbayan, ket impakaammo kenka ti mangiparparang kadagiti palimed ti mapasamakto.
30 To me also this secret is revealed, not by any wisdom that I have more than all men alive: but that the interpretation might be made manifest to the king, and thou mightest know the thoughts of thy mind.
No maipapan kaniak, saan a naiparang kaniak daytoy a palimed gapu ta nasirsiribak ngem iti siasinoman a sibibiag a tao. Naiparang kaniak daytoy a palimed tapno sika, O ari, maawatam koma ti kaipapananna, ken tapno maammoam koma dagiti kapanunotan iti kaunggam.
31 Thou, O king, sawest, and behold there was as it were a great statue: this statue, which was great and high, tall of stature, stood before thee, and the look thereof was terrible.
O ari, timmangadka ket nakakitaka iti maysa a dakkel nga estatua. Nakatakder iti sangoanam daytoy nga estatua a nabileg ken naraniag unay. Nakabutbuteng ti kinaraniagna.
32 The head of this statue was of fine gold, but the breast and the arms of silver, and the belly and the thighs of brass:
Ti ulo ti estatua ket naaramid iti puro a balitok. Ti barukong ken dagiti takkiagna ket naaramid iti pirak. Ti tian ken dagiti luppona ket naaramid iti bronse, ken dagiti gurongna ket naaramid iti landok.
33 And the legs of iron, the feet part of iron and part of clay.
Dagiti sakana ket naaramid iti naglaok a landok ken damili.
34 Thus thou sawest, till a stone was cut out of a mountain without hands: and it struck the statue upon the feet thereof that were of iron and of clay, and broke them in pieces.
Timmangadka ket maysa a bato ti nargaay, uray no kasta, saan a babaen kadagiti ima ti tao, ket naitupak daytoy kadagiti saka ti estatua a naaramid iti naglaok a landok ken damili, ket nawarawara dagitoy.
35 Then was the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold broken to pieces together, and became like the chaff of a summer’s thrashingfloor, and they were carried away by the wind: and there was no place found for them: but the stone that struck the statue, became a great mountain, and filled the whole earth.
Kalpasanna, naggigiddan a naburak ti landok, damili, bronse, pirak ken balitok ket nagbalin a kasla taep ti pagirikan iti kalgaw. Naiyangin dagitoy ket awanen ti nabati a pakakitaan kadagitoy. Ngem ti bato a naitupak iti estatua ket nagbalin a dakkel a bantay ket pinunnona ti entero a daga.
36 This is the dream: we will also tell the interpretation thereof before thee, O king.
Daytoy ti tagtagainepmo. Ita, ibagami iti ari ti kaipapanan ti tagtagainepna.
37 Thou art a king of kings: and the God of heaven hath given thee a kingdom, and strength, and power, and glory:
Sika, O ari, ket ari dagiti ar-ari a nangitedan ti Dios ti langit iti pagarian, ti pannakabalin, bileg ken dayaw.
38 And all places wherein the children of men, and the beasts of the field do dwell: he hath also given the birds of the air into thy hand, and hath put all things under thy power: thou therefore art the head of gold.
Inyawatna iti imam ti disso a pagnanaedan dagiti tattao. Inyawatna iti imam dagiti ayup iti kataltalonan ken dagiti billit iti tangatang, ken pinaiturayanna amin ida kenka. Sika ti balitok nga ulo ti estatua.
39 And after thee shall rise up another kingdom, inferior to thee, of silver: and another third kingdom of brass, which shall rule over all the world.
Kalpasan ti panagturaymo, tumaudto ti maysa pay a pagarian a saan a nabilbileg ngem sika, ngem agturayto iti entero a daga ti maikatlo a pagarian ti bronse.
40 And the fourth kingdom shall be as iron. As iron breaketh into pieces, and subdueth all things, so shall that break and destroy all these.
Addanto maikapat a pagarian a kas katibker ti landok, gapu ta buraken ti landok dagiti dadduma a banbanag ken warawaraen daytoy dagiti amin a banag. Warawaraen ken rumekento daytoy dagiti amin a banbanag.
41 Arid whereas thou sawest the feet, and the toes, part of potter’s clay, and part of iron: the kingdom shall be divided, but yet it shall take its origin from the iron, according as thou sawest the iron mixed with the miry clay.
Kas iti nakitam, naglaok a damili ken landok dagiti saka ken ramay daytoy, isu a magudduanto daytoy a pagarian; addanto iti daytoy ti dadduma a tibker ti landok kas iti nakitam a nailaok ti landok iti damili.
42 And as the toes of the feet were part of iron, and part of clay, the kingdom shall be partly strong, and partly broken.
Gapu ta naaramid dagiti saka ken ramay iti naglaok a landok ken damili, kastanto met ti pagarian, napigsanto ti dadduma a paset ket narasinto ti dadduma a paset.
43 And whereas thou sawest the iron mixed with miry clay, they shall be mingled indeed together with the seed of man, but they shall not stick fast one to another, as iron cannot be mixed with clay.
Kas iti nakitam, nailaok ti landok iti damili, isu nga aglalaokto dagiti tattao; saandanto a nadekket iti tunggal maysa, kas iti saan a pannakailaok ti landok iti damili.
44 But in the days of those kingdoms the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that shall never be destroyed, and his kingdom shall not be delivered up to another people, and it shall break in pieces, and shall consume all these kingdoms, and itself shall stand for ever.
Kadagiti al-aldaw dagitoy nga ar-ari, mangipasdekto ti Dios ti langit iti maysa a pagarian a saanto a pulos a madadael wenno maparmek dagiti sabali a tattao. Burakento daytoy dagiti dadduma a pagarian ken gibusannanto amin dagitoy, ket agtalinaedto daytoy iti agnanayon.
45 According as thou sawest that the stone was cut out of the mountain without hands, and broke in pieces, the clay, and the iron, and the brass, and the silver, and the gold, the great God hath shewn the king what shall come to pass hereafter, and the dream is true, and the interpretation thereof is faithful.
Kas iti nakitam, maysa a bato ti nareggaay manipud iti bantay, ngem saan a babaen kadagiti ima ti tao. Binurakburak daytoy ti landok, bronse, damili, pirak ken balitok. Impakaammo kenka ti naindaklan a Dios, O ari, no ania ti mapasamakto kalpasan daytoy. Pudno ti tagtagainep ken mapagtalkan ti kaipapanan daytoy.”
46 Then king Nabuchodonosor fell on his face, and worshipped Daniel, and commanded that they should offer in sacrifice to him victims and incense.
Nagpakleb ni Ari Nebucadnesar iti sangoanan ni Daniel ket pinadayawanna isuna; imbilinna nga agidatonda ken mangpuorda iti insenso tapno padayawan isuna.
47 And the king spoke to Daniel, and said: Verily your God is the God of gods, and Lord of kings, and a revealer of hidden things: seeing thou couldst discover this secret.
Kinuna ti ari kenni Daniel, “Pudno a ti Diosmo ket Dios dagiti dios, ti Apo dagiti ari, ken ti mangiparparang kadagiti palimed, ta nabaelam nga imparang daytoy a misterio.”
48 Then the king advanced Daniel to a high station, and gave him many and great gifts: and he made him governor over all the provinces of Babylon, and chief of the magistrates over all the wise men of Babylon.
Ket pinadayawan ti ari ni Daniel iti kasta unay, ken inikkanna isuna iti adu a sagut. Pinagbalinna isuna a mangituray iti entero a probinsia ti Babilonia. Nagbalin ni Daniel a kangatoan a gobernador kadagiti kasisiriban a lallaki ti Babilonia.
49 And Daniel requested of the king, and he appointed Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago over the works of the province of Babylon: but Daniel himself was in the king’s palace.
Nagkiddaw ni Daniel iti ari, ket dinutokan ti ari da Sedrac, Mesac, ken Abednego nga agbalin nga administrador iti entero a probinsia ti Babilonia. Ngem nagtalinaed ni Daniel iti palasio ti ari.
